what is this? should be a cube, but looks like a...?

hello, lurker turned poster here because i'm curious about these "cubes" that came from the same source

ok, that one above looks like a cube to me

but now what is this guy? it grew quickly and separated from the veil when it was very small. my ability to identify is minimal, can anyone say what this is with confidence? i know it's possible for spores to get mixed up, like getting cubes all up in your cyans. for all i know it's just a weird looking cube. browsing through pictures and comparisons, i really don't have an eye for it, but also it's not what i expected to see

Take a spore print. Check to make sure it's purple

okay, print in progress, as far as the blue bruising goes...is that something that would happen quickly and be like without a doubt "yeah that bruised blue"? because i'd say it's a no for the blue bruising:/
thanks for replies

The bruising can happen slowly or with in a minute. Just depends. It could be a cube, but it could be other things. I don't know how it would be something different. But it's not the first time someone has grown something besides a cube.
Edit: I do know many ways that it might not be a cube. But for sake of this post, I said I don't. It is curious that it fruited so close to the inoculation point. A competitor could have slipped in there. But I think it's a funky cube

The base of the stem. Squeeze it hard. Wait for like 12 hours. Or throw it in the fridge lol seems to make everything go blue.
Yeah what tahoe said. But you'd be surprised how many people get stuff other than cubes. it doesn't normally happen to agar users tho unless they grow a bunch of different types of mushrooms that have sporesplosions

Sometimes it bruises almost immediately but it give it 30 minutes and you should see some bruising.

Are you sure it had a veil? That looks like a panaeolus sp. to me.

U know, you may be right. It could be a pan cyan as well. I actually initially thought panaeolus when I first saw it too.. I wish there was pics of the spores under the scope. Usually too much to ask haha

I have had this grow from a cake 'nocced up with a MS syringe of cubes.
 
Everyone pretty much told me that it was oyster mushrooms. I couldn't believe how this happened honestly. I understand the concern one might have when a mushroom pops out that looks different than normal.
