Definitely mold also I've heard those kits are a scam. You could have bought the materials for a monotub for the same price

Bruising isn't black and splotchy like that. That's mold. Get that out of your house immediately. Black mold can be dangerous to your health. Not to mention mold in your grow space can cause problems on future grows.
Mold doesn't always spread quickly either. I can assure you that is not bruising remotely.

I think you could salvage the fruits that are there though

You really need a better picture. You can't identify something based solely on discoloration to be able to make out the texture. The only thing I can make out for sure is that some of spots are aborted pins and some of discolored areas on top appear to have the exact same texture as the mushroom mycelium, hyphal knots and all.

If you poured salt down there that would explain it.

Buy at trusted vendors. I had kits multiple times, never had a contam. In fact they seem to be isolates or clone cultures which yields a lot more than messing with spores.
