thin pins...too hot?

Hi guys
 I have birthed 3 monos, been in fruiting for 5 days now, pins popped up. My problem is the pins are very thin by looking them and this frustrates me because I always got normal size pins and fruits from these genetics. Also pinset is crap. The summer is really hot here, forecasts say it will stay up to 35°C for 2 weeks outdoors, I can't handle my house's temp so it's about 29-30°C inside my room. I keep one of my monos on a wardrobe which is 1,5 metres from the floor level. When I pop my lid on the mono I feel hot temperature coming out, I mean truly hot. The other 2 monos are at the floor, they don't produce this high temp when I open them. Also there's a fan running the whole day for proper FAE. I'd like to ask if higher temps could mess up my flush and what should I do to avoid bad pinsets and thin pins. The other 2 monos are not pinning yet (I put them into fruiting later than the first mono). Taking the mono to the floor level would help? Should I point my fan into the mono to help get out that hot air? If needed I can take some photos! Thanks in advance!

Isolate/monoculture or multispore syringe?

Normal....the mycellium generates an immense amount of heat.

No, but MS genetics would.

Thanks for your reply Sir!
I am working with an isolate, agar dropped into oat. I have been keeping this culture for 2 years now and had never had any problems with the characteristics of the fruits I mean they were normal sized and potent all the time. It's good to hear that high temps don't really mess up flushes but on the other hand it's a problem because it means I made mistakes when transferred agar plates and bunk genetics went in. 
All I can do is waiting for the other 2 tubs to how they'll perform. I took some photos so you can see what I'm talkin about. I'm just thinking of bacteria could cause this because of high temps are preferred by bacteria 
This is the thin fruit:

The whole (first) tub:

The other ones, still waiting for pins:



Any opinions? Would you still blame the genetics?

Could be contam related as well......now that you confirmed it is a proven isolate, no, I do not think it's genetics related.

Looks really wet, that might be a contributing factor with the thin pins.

Yes it is wet because I had misted it before taking pictures. The sub dries out quickly. Interesting but I have to mist 2 times more than the other 2 tubs, they don't really gets dry at all, I always see water droplets on the other 2, but not on this "thin-pin" tub. I used to mist tubs heavily after birthing but I never had proplems with it. This is the first time I can't handle a single mono that frustrates me really I will see how the other tubs will perform, soon or later.
I am going to get a microscope because I am getting sure that there's a hidden contam grows along with my myc. However my other tubs look nice. Thanks for replies!
