Short shrooms, caps opening, is this even a cube?

Hey guys.
So I'm in the fruiting stage of a pf tek tub grow, very basic but it's doing its thing.
I've had pins/fruits for a little under a week now. All seemed to be going well until I got home from work today.
The caps are starting to open at around an inch tall and the caps are a little deformed. I'm reading mixed points... I've read that it can be caused by a dry sub, too much moisture, bacteria, genetics... you name it, I've read it!
So I'm here hoping someone can clear it up for me. Due to lack of time/space/motivation it is fruiting in a unicorn bag with many small holes. I mean hundreds. Not ideal but it's not been an issue (until now perhaps). I know I'd be better off with a sgfc but if you saw the space I have to use you'd understand why that's not an option.

It's a multispore grow of koh samui (not super strain) that's been in fruiting conditions for around 12 days. Pins appeared 5 days ago. A whole heap.of genetic variation going on.
Also, the freaky white one? Is that even a cube? There are other white/albino ones dotted about but that one in particular looks way different to any of the others. I'm sure it's fine but thought I'd ask while I'm here.
I'll get more photos if it helps and shroomerry let's me upload them but you should be able to see what I mean from the above one. The caps look a little shriveled.

Wow.. almost all of those look a little.. not like cubes. I'd assume the albino one is also a cube but it's hard to say without gill shots.

Thanks dude. I'll see what I can do about a gill shot. I'll also try and get an ariel view. Hopefully they look a little more cube like in that haha

The way they look actually reminds me more of pioppini/black poplar than cubes... I'm sure they're fine though.

Thanks logical chaos. That's the answer I was hoping for but not the one I expected 
I've given the white one a pinch. Will let ya know how it goes.
I have a gill shot but now shroomery is telling me it's too big a file? It's smaller than the one I juts posted!!!! I shall try again later.
I'm guessing as nobodies pointing out the wrinkly caps that they're not an immediate issue? And the early cap opening? Genetic?
Really appreciate the replies so far

Very cool, definitely a psilocybe.
Heres a pic of a wild Psilocybe cyans: 
Notice the similarities in gills?
Also, consider yourself super lucky to grow both an albino and a regular cube in one batch! Very cool pics will come from this grow. If u got agar, i recommend cloning some albinos for yourself. They are typically more potent than their regular colored counterpart.

I've heard albinos can just as likely be less potent, especially since they have no pigmentation to prevent oxidation through the whole fruit.

Excellent. Thanks for all of the replies. My mind is a bit more at rest.
I guess I'll just leave them alone to grow until they start to sporulate? Koh Samui is meant to be short but I expected more than an inch haha. At this point I'm just happy to have something.
I certainly see the similarities of the gills. I wasn't even aware that psilocybes have similar gill patterns so that's something else I've learned today.
I'm not agar capable unfortunately. I have no pc or sab yet. They'll be dry or eaten by the time I get my act together and do the required reading. But yeah I am pretty pleased that I've got some albinos in there.
Thanks again to everyone taking the time to respond.
Here's a group shot to make the block of text more interesting

Bye bye once in a billion genetics that you'll never see again, because the one time it happened you didn't have agar. 
Nah actually a ton of them have been popping up lately, I think some common "strains" are destabilizing.

Meh a year or two ago it would've been like that but I seriously think something is up with some of the spore rings or something, lot of people are getting sporeless albinos lately. Mostly noobs buying kits and/or syringes from ill-reputed vendors.

Haha oh yeah... sporeless. I'm sitting here thinking meh... At least I can spore print it. I repeat, damn noobs ha.
If I can find someone with a pc I'll try and clone it. They're not really something people have here and I'm pretty broke. I'll have a look in thrift/charity stores though.
I would say where I got my spores from but I'm not sure if they're a sponsor. Based in Austria. Intentional albinism would not surprise me. It's the equivalent of selling only feminised seeds. Gotta keep buying em.

It's not intentional, trust me. They'd make a lot more money having a consistent product. Intentional work is stuff like albino penis envy, and is fairly consistent. One fruit per tub being a certain way isn't something you can isolate to be predictable.

I thought you meant those already nocced myc kits putting out only albinos. I don't know why I thought that... You're right of course.

U may not know this, but u can swab an albino that doesnt drop spores.
and im pretty sure pre inoculated substrates sold online are illegal and hard to find for that reason.
