Everything was going great, I was super excited about my dense pinset, but then they started to what looks like rot? They havent been growing much for about 2 days. I'm not sure what I should do. they may be getting too much water and not enough fresh air? What can i do to save these?

looks like over misting, you should probably stop doing that

On these 2 pics in particular I see Psuedomonas(viral infection). See how it's like a dark brown spotting instead of just dark streaks? That's the key to distinguishing between over sat and infection.
Personally I wouldn't eat an infected bits, either cut it out(tends to infect mostly the base by time fully grown) or toss the fruit if too badly infected. There are those that will say boil it into tea and it's nbd, but I can't get behind eating a modly shrooms any more than eating a moldy apple; Also probably a bad idea if you have health issues.

thank you, I've looked up the pseudomonas infection and it does look to be what that is. Ive picked all of the ones that look like they could be infected or rotten. I'm really hoping that i can salvage this flush.

You should be able to. Maybe i should add I don't disagree with "too wet" suggestions in general, so i would lay off the misting. Anything that makes it to a nice large size should be able to be harvested and any infected bases can be cut off at harvest. Usually the infection can't spread as fast as the shrooms grow in their final hours. I've had this show up a few times and it's kinda rare to be so rampant it overtakes all your shrooms entirely ime.

Thank you so much. I am definitely going to lay off of the misting for a bit. Is it normal that the growth has stalled a bit in the past two days? They started to pin a week ago. Do you think the pseudomonas or over-misting may have stunted their growth or am I just being impatient? (I'm still a newb)

Just be patient. If they aborted, the caps will turn black and the shroom will kinda shrivel. Sometimes with oversaturated subs, they'll end up opening their caps at a short stubby size instead of that final push for growth which gives the extra inches and weight.
