Contam check! Does this look okay?

First couple pictures look kind of discolored/ off-white on top. What is all the white cotton stuff growing?

looks more like bruising, which will be bluish/gray. get a wet qtip and do a little scrape, if no spores or anything come off, you shouldnt have to worry

Sorry I’m a noob but how do I know whether it is spores that come off with it? If they do do these cakes need to be thrown?

Wet the qtip, and swab it. Did anything wash off on the qtip? is there are blue, green black content? If something did rub off, then yeah, probably something is off and I'd toss or quarantine at the very least.

If the wet qtip returned white, its just bruising

Wet qtip returned white (with some vermiculite) so I think we are good! Once they start growing out, when is the right time to harvest them?

I like it right when the caps are opening up, before the spores fall down that makes it taste kinda shitty but otherwise fine.

There might be what are called aborts, they are half formed, skinny top mushrooms that didnt grow all the way, energy spent better elsewhere, that look waterlogged a bit. When you harvest, and they are obvious, you can remove them then as well.
