Second grow, different place, not pinning

My first BRF cake trial was not bad although my setup was a non-drilled box with water drowned perlite , no dunk and roll, no misting, only fanning in a day or two. Now I tried my second run in different place. No pinning observed in two weeks and cakes started to turn blueish. Then I read that dunk and roll method was pinning trigger factor and it may replenish the lost moisture within the cake. Moreover, I wasn't able to fan frequently, I modified the setup as PMP. Again, for 10 days still no pinning although I frequently mist and fan the cakes. Any ideas?

Take pics. bruising is generally a sign of things getting way dry.

If you look carefully to the bottom of the cake, mycelium still try to reach out of the foil. I don't know why.

It might be worth it to dunk if you haven't already. I've noticed that cakes tend to dry out after full colonization.

Please refer to these links for doing the pf tek properly. I'd recommend getting a sgfc instead of a pmp. Lookup sgfc pics to see the results of a chamber focused on proper passive air exchange. Very sexy.

You got a mess on your hands there sir. Not sure if it can be saved now. First things first, you need one of these in your life ASAP: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20195542

 PMP is a horrible FC tek and awfully outdated. I can't see the pics very clearly but as far as I could tell those cakes look bacterial.

 Thank you guys. I'll switch to shotgun chamber immediately. By the way this morning I upsided down the cakes and saw that one of the cakes started pinning.

I can see this pic more clearly and yes, it looks bacterial, but don't toss it or anything, you should still see some fruits, although they won't grow as vigorously and prolifically.
