These mushrooms popped up in my tubs a couple days ago. Two different containers, both straw and horse manure. At first I thought they were the B+ and Ecuador's they were supposed to be, but now I don't think so. Could something else have been on the straw that made it through the pasteurization?

Those look either like a cool different mushroom or a contam called ink cap or something like that you just have to wait and see.

They grow super fast. these are not the same mushrooms, but they change from the size in the first picture to the size of the ones in the second picture within a matter of hours.

That's not a "contam", it's a mushroom. You got a crappy syringe, those are not cubes and are probably not edible but I'm not positive about the edibility. Contact your supplier and tell them you looked at the spores under a microscope and they were not what you ordered.

Ink cap. That's what it is. I saw a dead one on the bale of straw that I used. I didn't recognize it because they look different all dried up and dead.

Get an ident in the hunting and identification forum, they look like shaggy ink cape, if they are, they're edible.

DUDE NO WAY... It a contam that makes the mushrooms look like that... Read the contamination thread before you try to one up people.

Ok I understand that if you didn't try to grow it, it's a contam, now let's put that aside. It's an inky cap mushroom, not a contam that makes the caps look like that. So before you get all high on your horse, pick up a field guide and have an interest in mushrooms, not just the ones that get you high!!!

These tubs were inoculated with two different spore prints. Could that be the source? I figured it came from the straw.

You said earlier that you saw them on your straw before you pasteurized, I would think that's where they came from, unless you don't know where your prints came from, I would put my money on the straw.

they look like shaggy mane. fried with salt, peeper, and butter, they taste like the soft fatty part of a rib-eye. I LOVE THEM!
But i'm sure that's not what you ordered.
