It looks like you have other cakes in the chamber with it. Do they appear the same? If they appear fine under the same conditions as that cake, I'd assume that cake has a contam. I'd wait for someone more experienced to answer tho.

The blue looks like bruising. Pins look contaminated with verticillium.
I could be wrong.

You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

Really??? Perhaps the first picture is just a weird angle.  They look funky in the first one and fine in the second.  If it is indeed verticillium the caps will be turning brown soon and they will all abort.  In my experience verticillium leaves some very noticeable light-dark brown staining and quite a funky smell.  Like a sweet fungus-like smell.  Then again I can sort of see how the one all the way to the right might resemble it.  Only time will tell.

I did a dunk a roll, I also took some invitro pins off prior to dunking and roll, the invitro pins were in the area where these pins are.

There is no smell or orange liquid.

The pins appears to be splitting along the shaft, they appeared to have wrinkles at first but now they are splitting.

I have two mono tubs on the go, so i happy to wait it out a bit, see what happens.

But i would still like advice, as im not sure if my setup is 100% correct yet.

Many thanks

What are the signs of verticillium, and how does it usually occur?

i've searched this forum for the same thing, time and time again it comes up 'bruise.'

also, the vast majority of 'reasons' that i recall for the bruising tends to be that the myc is thirsty.

i've seen the same thing before in lots of pictures of fruiting cakes on this forum.  i'd try to crank up the moisture and mist+fan.  that's what the pros seem to say.  dunk between flushes, etc.

Maybe it's bruised from too much fondling :wink: but seriously, stop picking it up.  (I'm sure you just did it for the photograph)

The pins don't look great.  Perhaps what Doc said, or maybe a virus?

I wouldn't say contamination, though.

Anyway, nothing you can do about those scenarios - care for them and see what happens?  Let us know how they progress.

I honestly only picked this up once for this photo, Iv got a a completely clear FC so can see it from all views.

I had a large crack on one side of the FC, so i have taped it up and increased the misting.

I have also moved them to increase the light, see if that helps with growth.

My monotubs are flying at the min, should be ready for fruiting next week.
