Yeah I have been jamming my dehydrator full as fuck the last week or so, haven't had a choice. I was a little worried before I did it once but I have fit about a qp in my 4 tray dehydrator.
Now if I have a big harvest idc, I just grab handfuls and throw them on haphazardly and then move them around a little to even it out 
Works fine so far.
Never thought I would start to get sick and tired of harvesting mushrooms, but I'm about at that point right now >.<
But that's a good thing

I fell you man. My first box this morning I twisted and pulled every mushroom what a pain in the ass.
I think bod mentioned to put water in till they float then cut at the base. So much easier. I did another box in like 2 minutes and didn't destroy the substrate like the first one.

Scissors work way good for harvesting shoeboxes especially if you float or remove the substrate

But scissors sound pretty good....

Feels and looks like thousands of thin fish scales pressed together, and at the same time feels muddy and oily slippery. Really strange texture

Where are you seeing deformities? They look like normal shrooms to me.
Yea you are correct. Ive never seen so much bruising in person it looks dark green thrn lightens up a day or so later. Maybe they are some potent little fucks
One cool thing is they were sporeless. Not one had a spore in sight.

I definitely prefer cutting my fruits for harvesting if I'm doing a full flush or more. Cleaning a ton of mushrooms is a pain in the ass...
The more I grow bulk the less I care about losing a bit off the stem and cleaning up the leftover stubs and all that
For sure get pretty lazy about tossing them all on the dehydrator racks as well.

I thought the same thing man. I wad starting at those boxes setting any but if anything and thinking it's a contam.
The ones I harvested today are like solid blue from bruising. There beyond potent.

I see tons of spores all over the veils. They are just beginning to mature, so they just haven't produced a lot of spores yet.
