hi and a big thanks! this is my first post but i been lurking for a while now. this forum is just amazing!
now to the point, my dog ordered some golden teacher spores from 101spores everything was great until they started fruiting, I am a newbie so i may be wrong, but part of my fruits look a lot a like oyster mushrooms they have no "head", is this normal or i just got screwed? there are some normal shroms to but still it is pretty bad!
any input will be appreciated
the weird ones...

the regular ones

what should i do? remove them? there is also a small regular pin in the same cake...

i dont even know if those are oysters.

You'll probably have better luck posting it in the Mushroom Hunting and Identification.
Spores101 has a horrible reputation here. That's why no one orders from them here.

Those are very likely oysters, give em' more FAE, they taste great sautéed in butter! That way you can eat shrooms while you're on shrooms!

all edible mushrooms come in live cultures. not spores.
unless OPs syringe was filled like live mycelium. those are not oysters.
they are a contaminant mushroom.

thanks for the input, in that case, should i separate it from the other cakes or this means is all contaminated? is there a place where i can see examples of such contamination?

not for an oyster strain that will fruit on brf/verm
edibles from spores RARELY fruit.
everyone uses tested genetic isolates.
NO ONE grows edibles from spores.
they isolate like a million different strains on agar.
and then test them individually
because if you use multispore with edibles.
it will rarely fruit.
im telling you, those are not oyster mushrooms.

this stuff is growing in two of the cakes already, does this means that the golden teachers that grow well will not be edible? there is no bad smell in the chamber by the way....

I say... Trash the cakes, next the Fruiting chamber. Take a trip to the Gas Station. (Don't forget gas cans). Go inside your house, douse it with Gasoline. Strike a match. And burn that mother down...
But no really. Don't eat the funny ones until someone properly identifies them. I wouldn't even eat the Cubes. IMO, I'm sure someone would.

Be sure to come back and post pics of those things once they mature. I'm curious to see if those little guys actually are oysters. Maybe they're just mutant cubes?

my god man, small world. Your having the EXACT same issue as me. They look damn near identical!!..as for spores101.. NOT ordering anything from them again. If this is how the cube spores turn out then i'm thinking i want to return the edible cultures that i just purchased for sake of untrustworthy dealer.
So from reading this entire forum post.. it would seem people think it is a contamination. ahhhh..i knew it looked friggen weird and wrong from the start. Going to dig a hole and toss the buggers into it and then bleach the entire lab room...such a 4 week disappointment!! I can only hope spores101 will buck up and admit to this and replace the syringes at the very least, i am not expecting them to bend over backwards.. but in the end we purchased something and what we purchased is not what we received.

My lab partner, the dude who got me started in home growing shrooms, has grown a few types of oysters on BRF cakes, at least one strain of which started as a spore print. The yields sucked but he did manage to fruit some of them (The king oyster I know because he brought it in to lab to show off). Oysters tend to be prodigious spore formers, so its entirely possible whoever supplied the vendor with the cube spores had oysters growing in the same area and cross-contam'd.
The other option is they used oyster spores, assuming that they wouldnt fruit, to bulk up the spore count to make the syringe darker. I tend to prefer to think it was an honest mistake, but anythings possible.
edit: these arent my lab mates cakes, but pictures prove it is possible:

Oyster mushrooms put out the most spores of any mushroom I've ever grown. It makes sense if someone was printing a cube in the same room as an oyster mushroom grow, the print would be contaminated.
Check out all the white oyster spores on the condenser on my old mini-greenhouse air conditioning unit, and this is just what made it through the filter over less than two weeks. RR

Check out all the white oyster spores on the condenser on my old mini-greenhouse air conditioning unit, and this is just what made it through the filter over less than two weeks. RR

Yep. And that's why I'll not grow oysters in my home anymore. They're strictly an outside project for me since my first oyster block filthied up my kitchen with spores.
Got 7 quarts of Portobello's tearing through some rye grain as we speak. Hope they are more reasonable producers of spores.
Salocharly: The pix of the "mixed mushroom" cakes are priceless!!! Love 'em. Best of both worlds IMHO!

Now, to the nitty-gritty:
Both species, the oysters and the cubes show signs of insufficient fresh air and light, but mostly insufficient fresh air as indicated by the tiny caps and long stems. Are you keeping that shotgun terrarium in a closet or something? At any rate, increase light by adding a 6500K CFL or moving it closer if you already have one. Fan a bit more or put the terrarium on blocks in the center of a well-ventilated room. RR

Was just going to say the same thing RR. 
Mushrooms will tell you what they need, if you speak the visual language they present.

That is actually kinda cool. Make a video and call it two strains one cake and see how many hits you get...
But as others have said spore101=screwed.
But have no fear the normal looking ones are good to go, eat them up.
The other "weird" mushroom is hard to tell what they are. They have the look of an Oyster for sure but they are so small I can't even see gills. Have you picked any of them? If so do they bruise?
Chances are there oysters but with out them growing a little more to show some gills or spores they are worthless anyway. So I would say just pick they weird ones so they stop eating your cake.

thanks a lot for all the help and info.
updates...
the oyster one don't grow more than that, so i removed them and once i did that the shroms started to grow much better actually the mixed cake is given healthier and stronger shield that the regular one. the oysters removed smell good and do not bruise if i squize
they are in my bathroom in a pretty open space... i work 10 hours a day outside my house so I can constantly fan and spray. I spray in the mornings and evenings.
I will bring more pictures tomorrow
i had 6 cakes, 2 of they pinned and all the rest not yet. they all dunked at the same time, is this normal?
big thanks for all the support and info.

It happened the same to me man!!! I ordered from spores 101 and everything was fine until about a couple of days when the same type of "headless" pins started to show up. I'm never ordering from spores 101 again.
However, as the noob I am, I believe I gained some experience in making brf cakes, colonizing them, birthing them, fruiting them, maintaining proper temp and RH and above all taking this hobby with a lot of patience.
Just got some syringes from a sponsor and can't wait to start again. Peace
