First Grow with pics. First shrooms are blackened. Mold or spores?

Hey guys. This website has been a great aid in getting me going on my first set up. Things have been going really well. I've been using PFTek and advice from forums. At this point, I have 5 cakes, two of which had primordia growing right before i birthed them. The other three are just starting to fruit.
Now the question- My first three or 4 shrooms just broke their veils at noon yesterday. I left for the day doing activities and when I returned around 8pm, the dudes were nearly twice the size they were that morning, had black spots, and dropped black stuff all over. I looked into it immediately and realized that I should have picked them that morning. the black stuff seems to smear off fairly easy. Pictures are attached, but what do you think...
is it mold or spores? I've read that the spores are brown-purplish and this stuff is pretty damn black...
are the mushrooms still good for consumption?
What about the cakes covered in black stuff? Should I wipe it off or let it be?
Also, any other suggestions would be awesome! Many thanks!
