Second opinion on first flush ever

Hey guys, before diving into the art of making cakes myself, i decided to get a growkit for my first grow! I just picked the first flush, and i think everything went well.
There are just a few things i wasn't too sure about and i couldn't find an answer with the search function.
I picked every single tiny pinhead too, so that they wouldn't rot and ruin the kit. To get to some of the pinheads at the side of the box i gently lifted the whole brick out of the box. Right now i have the box dunked in the fridge for the next flush. Was this a good idea or is it okay to leave the tiniest (1-2 mm) pinheads? Also, do you guys usually eat the tiny pinheads or throw them away?
Also, the stems are blue-greenish. Do you think this is from bruising? Because there were a lot of little pins on the side of the growbox that started to get a black cap and some green colour, so i was worried this could maybe be mold?
I went ahead and took some pictures



I hope someone could help me out here, cheers!

Looks good. Next time leave any healthy little pins and just dunk, They will be part of your 2nd flush. The black ones sounds like aborted pins and should be removed.
Bluing on stems is bruising from harvesting.

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply. Next time i'll leave the pins and only remove the ones at the side of the box that are black. It's a pretty good flush i think. I didn't weigh them yet, but there's about 50 to 60 decently sized shrooms lying on kitchen paper sheets above the heating with a fan on them.
Thanks again!
