Three pins in these pics are funny looking. They look to me to be torn, but I've considered that they might be a bacterial infection eating them maybe? I have no clue.
What is it and what should I do? My other cake right next to it is fine and has well over 80 pins on it(first grow), so I thought I was doing well...

I'm going to guess they are genetic deformities. Should know in a couple days either way.

Thank you for the guess, that particular thought never occurred to me. I was pretty confuse because nothing had touched them to make them like that.

If it is just a deformity, I assume it would be safe eating?

No, it isn't wet all the time, the SGFC stays at about 80-90 percent humidity, and, I pour water on top of the cakes, I'd guess 5-10 ml, and repeat when it goes dry, as well as mist the sides of them, then fan. Overnight the humidity drops to about 70-75 percent, possibly because I run my lamp at night because I'm gone all day and don't feel comfortable leaving cords running under my closet door while I'm not home. and the cakes dry out. I have about 3.5-4 inches of perlite, so I mist it and the sides as well as needed (whenever it feels dry).
Should I stop pouring water on top of the cakes?

Checked them this morning and the other cake has these too, now... probably a total of 8 in all. No idea what to do.

They're just genetic deformities, but yes, stop pouring water on them. The number one pinning trigger is evaporation of water from your substrate. Just mist them (not directly on them but above your cakes so it falls onto the cakes gently) a few times a day.

Genetic mutations are common with multispore, especially during the first flush. If you use the search bar, there's a thread dedicated to Cubensis mutations. Some of them are actually pretty cool looking.
