Shrooms dying, not sure why?

Hello, this is my first grow. Unfortunately with a growbox but I'll get a prints if it succeeds.
So the problem is next: I created perfect conditions, misting 2 times per day and giving them O2 2-3 times per day.
Shrooms are for some reason pretty slow. First 10 shrooms started a little bit earlier and then died after 2--3 cm. Now the rest of shrooms started growing and I have a feeling that they are dying also. The caps get some weird blackish color.
Do you know what might be a problem? Here is a pic. https://ibb.co/dXdqc0
Thanks.

Very thin substrates cause small mushrooms. Could also be shit genetics. I can't tell the exact depth of that growbox, but it looks pretty shallow, so I wouldn't expect much.

Proper moisture of the substrates and surface moisture along with good FAE will help you out. Also, it is to be noted that a shallow substrate will dry out faster than a deeper one.
If you want, water down the side a to the bottom of the tub to bottom water your sub. that will give you some water reservoir for your mushies to work with, don't use a lot, just enough that your mushrooms mass can soak it up.
That is a grow kit, and those bags choke out your mushrooms. A proper fruiting chamber would definitely help. Poke a bunch of hole in the bag with a needle. Like a fuck load of them. that'll give them the fresh air they need.

Thanks for the help. How much water do I have to put into the substrate? Isn't that bad for mushrooms while they are growing?

I usually mist once daily or every other day depending on conditions after the first flush. And ill do 2 or 3 full sprays on a mono tub or 1 full spray per shoebox

I gave them water and it looks much better but now I have other concerns. What's happening with this greenish shroom?

Looks to be bruising, which can be a greenish, blue shades, and almost black.

Don't think so. Just looks bruised.

NO. Would you be contaminated if you had a bruise?
