clones sectoring?

well i tried my hand at cloning a cube from my first flush and all seemed to go well, nice clean even growth. but unfortunately i had a busy week and forgot to make a quick transfer of the new growth and came to find a bunch of contams that i just couldn't save and my plate had started reaching up the edges, so i was on my 3rd flush by this point and took a pin and chucked it on a dish and a few days later there was mad sectoring like i'm talking one side almost at the edge the other side barely moved and the growths all looked very diffrent, just wondering if this could be a response to a contam i can't see or just the result of the ms genetics in the fruit, maybe the way i poured? maybe the third flush wasn't a good plan? what do i do with the sectors? do i start transfering each one or am i taking away from the proven fruiting ability? sorry i got no cam to take pics

there can be multiple "strains" present in one fruit body

i know there is multiple strains in it i just don't know if it's something worth taking transfers from, just odd to me as my first one was so nice and even and this one came out almost ugly looking lol, i should also note that i changed my recipe and used elme instead of me which i did the first time

Some fruits will give you an isolate right off the bat, but a lot of mushrooms are actually composites of multiple genetics. However, I have seen TCs say that the original clone sectors perform better together than as an isolate of each. So it's up to you if you decide to isolate the clone further 
that was from franks guide that i followed but he never mentions anything about what flush it's preferred to clone from...or maybe theres no such thing?

yeah theres no reason I can think of it would make a difference which flush you cloned from.
Just whichever flush gives you the biggest, most up-right, most uniform fruits.

 i feel stupid, forgot to click the tc button on the search i now know to transfer each sector andd test them out to find which one works best and to top it off foo man says:
I always clone from the first flush. In fact, I usually clone the first few pins that pop up before they even mature to get the healthiest, most aggressive myc, not tired myc that has already spent a lot of its energy. I see a lot of people cloning from the 2nd+ flush because the particular fruit was larger, but anyone that has grown will tell you mushrooms from later flushes are typically fewer, but larger with the main reason being that there are less fruitbodies competing for the remaining nutrients.
In my experience the first pins usually end up being the largest fruits from the first flush, so why not clone the fruit that popped up first, fastest and will likely be largest anyway
     i feel dumb now lol...sorry guys it's an off day i guess
