strange mini mono pin question with pics

Hey everybody, I'm very new to mycology and would incredibly appreciate some wise words of advice from more wise mushroom growers. About a month ago I randomly had a pint jar of some cubesis strain fully colonized. Wanting to do something with it I threw it in a Tupperware container, cased it with some straight verm, and rigged up a ghetto mono tub. I know straight verm isn't the best casing nor did I need to case cubensis In the first place, I was high and lazy. Nontheless after about 2 weeks little pins began showing through the casing. After about 2 weeks since the initial pins, there has been little growth since then. Also some strange white bubbly foam has appeared on the bottoms of the pins. I know mycelium can grow up the pins but I'm not sure it's mycelium. I will post pics of the tub. Any help would be greatly appreciated

The fuzzy feet are from a lack of FAE
Pics aren't working for me right now but it looks like the dark caps are mushrooms aborting, also looks like your holes are very small.
How big did you drill out those bottom holes? And whats the configuration? For 30 qrt tubs I use two 1 inch bottom holes on either long side, and one 1 inch top holes on either top side.

The bottom holes I had taped with micropore. I have a whole top piece that is not pictured that has the top two holes stuffed with poly fill. im sure I don't give it enough air exchange but what scares me the most is the mycelium on the pins seems to look like it has a bubbly consistency and has a weird stringyness connecting closeby pins

You don't have enough fresh air exchange plain and simple. Your holes should not be taped. Micro pore tape is not the tool for this job it doesn't allow enough fresh air. The holes you have taped in your pics should be stuffed with polly fill. If you don't have any just rip open an old pillow and take some out. These are the most suffocated shrooms I have ever seen. I don't even know how you made it this far considering you obviously don't know what your doing and you didn't even take the time to research how to do things correctly. Very little respect for impatient ignorance.
