Help! Big issues with pins.(Pics)

Hey there!
So, I'm currently attempting my first grow and finally managed to get some pins from my mushrooms, but there's some more problems going on with my pins as of late.
The pins aren't progressing very fast(they're still relatively small after around 4-5 days growth). I've also come across a new problem, where certain pins will get large and then literally burst open, killing the pin.
Here's a before and after pic:


The cake also developed one odd, super bulbous pin that did essentially the same thing.

I have two main guesses as to the causes:
1. Over misting and under fanning in contrast with the bubble wrap tek created a strong over-saturation, leading to aborts, and potentially causing the cells in the mushy to swell until they just ripped open.
2. At one time this same cake was in a milk-jug terrarium that got knocked over in a bit of clumsiness, so maybe the pin got damaged and died in the process? But I never saw bruising or cuts on the mushy, so I feel like that's unlikely.
My current plan of action is to go a day without misting and then severely cut back on misting, while fanning much more often to evaporate some of the water. Hopefully they will be okay.
Thoughts?

I'm using a SGFC with properly spaced holes along with the bubble wrap tek(overboard?).
Unfortunately all the pictures I managed to get are kinda suckish, but I'll upload all three and maybe a little bit better of an angle can be seen. I've of course already picked and dried the pin in order to prevent rotting.



Another photo of the bin before it exploded:

I notice that there's a ring before the cap that I don't think I've ever seen in other people's photos, is that a sign of an abort and therefor the mushroom attempted to break it's veil and release any spores possible? Many other pins have aborted on the same cake and two others.
