P.Allenii bruising on plate

Ok, it does not really look like contamination, i saw my fair share of all kind of molds and this looks like ... its bluish in color. I even did transfers from that plate and it still doesnt look like contamination.
But Its my first time with allenii and it kinda worries me. Does allenii or other woodlovers bruise blue on agar?
Do i have mold mixed with myc?
i have another plate and myc is just starting - no blue color so far...
Opinions?

Did a quick search and found this example. I'm sure you can find others.

Think you got mold there.

yeah i got it - its mold for sure. 
yesterday i got home to this monstrosity.

Picture in OP is 3 days old so this is progress in just two or so days.
This plate was inoculated at same time as mold plate, much slower growth, looks good for transfer. All is well. 

But, its beautiful mold, prettiest of them all.
Funny how i focused on bruising and color and whole time that thing is off and i know its off, but wanted to believe its bruising.

And i kinda think that i got 2 kinds of myc in there, one is mold but other... Anyway I have clean allenii and this is just curiosity on my part. I have no intention opening this anytime before it goes into PC for 20 min...
Let it live for a while, says me.
And it lost blue hue...

Interesting.
I still don't think it's alenii. Maybe you've got some other kind of mushroom spores on there.
Was the print reliably an alenii? It's not exactly a common mushroom.

It is allenii for sure, from respectable guy who had outdoor patch. Why doubt?
Just because its not common? I traded for it.
I already put some to woods, so will know soon for sure. Sluggish myc.
Purple very small print.
But in the end, who cares? Its my problem. This is about Moldy McMold.

But i find it funny, when i had first go with reishi (i took some from health store, scrubbed spores, did cleanup) people didnt believe that i actually got reishi.
Well, it certainly looks like one. 

This is what I believe is allenii myc, first transfer, will do another one from that plate and then to woods. I got 5 plates like that.
