Yeah, your FC probably sucks. We need pics.

Always include your setup photos in a "what did I do?" situation.

okay, i use plastic bucket; the lid of the bucket has transparent sheet over so light comes through. there are small holes with polyfill all over the wall of the bucket. in adition there is air pump which blows gently every 2 hours for 10 min. on the bottom is perlite, there is tray over it and there isnt much space for wetness to come from bottom. but still there is a little space so i thought it is alright.

Yeah, your FC sucks. Look into a greenhouse, a shotgun chamber or a monotub.
For now, take out the Polyfil and you should start seeing some better results. You may need to leave some, you'll have to watch your mushies and find a balance.
And no, that's not nearly enough space for humidity to rise from your perlite.

so you are saying that fae is the problem? i can make air pump blow much harder and much longer. regarding the humidity - since monotub provides humidity for itself - i thought this one could too. substrate is quiet deep, and there is perlite on bot.

Pumping more air in there will only lower RH.
The problem with the bag is the same as with your FC.

Because that depends on your definition of success. Usually someone using a kit has never seen a properly-developed mushroom before, so they don't know that it looks fucked up.
