Brf to bulk, lots of mutants and side pins? 1

Hey all, I have a brf to bulk going

There seems to be a lot of mutants forming.
It’s in an unmodified tub with the lid flipped. Average room temp/rh is 70F/40
Is this most likely due to genetics? Too little or too much fae?
Thanks!
Also, I didn’t put a liner and gave a lot of side pins going. How do I deal with those?

Looks like a mix of bad spawn and too much misting too

Yes the cakes were a tad bacterial. (And I’m definitely guilty of misting too much).
Should I keep these going (will they be safe to eat) or dump the whole thing?

To be save i would let it grow out and then send the final product to me for secure extermination.

I'm assuming that's the green light to let them keep going and consume as usual?

The fruits do look good so far, of course a hands on inspection could confirm.
Not sure what bod means with bad spawn, as he has much more experience than me, but i concur on the too much misting. Atleast these white sauce on the mush caps i saw when i misted too much. And water also increases the chances of bacterial infections. You might want to read up on bacterial contams, but afaik the most common ones are not really harmful.
So finally yes, i would carry on (or be safe and send to me).

When the world changes and mailing such a thing is ok, then maybe 
Thanks! This is my first bulk and I'm not good at gauging surface conditions yet so I over-misted because I didn't want them to dry out. I have a lot to learn on surface conditions but I'll definitely stop the rainstorms.
All smells fine, very mushy, and I see no competing fungus. Just a whole host of new X-Men (mutants).
As stated they were brf jars, a few looked possibly slightly bacterial.
I'll keep these going and we'll see how they progress. I've also read that drying them at max in the dehydrator kills bacteria. I guess if I'm extra worried I can make tea from them?

Sweet. The smell is for me a good indicator for bacteria aswell, glad it works.
I'm quite new to growing aswell and certainly did (and still do) many mistakes. Considering Moisture and Surface conditions, i found these two post to be a good read and they helped me:

I’ve got a shoebox right now that looks identical, def bacteria.
Does yours have yellow dots/blobs forming on the sides or bottom yet?
the jar was off and then once the knots turned yellow I knew what was coming

It does! When I took the cakes out of the jars, they smelled nice and mushy but they had some metabolites on the underside and definitely looked slightly bacterial.
Mine look almost identical to your picture! Are you planning on growing those out?

Oh for sure.
They’ll be fine just look funky.
Plus it’s a good pinset with some potential monsters in there.

Awesome, I'm definitely planning on doing the same (I'm just still enough of a noob to ask "can i eat fruits off this grow" a million times ).

They’re getting bigger and more ghastly 

When is the best time to pick these mutants?

Looks nice!
Mine looks similar but smaller, they aren't ready yet. I'll get a picture up as soon as I get home.
Hopefully mine ends up as nice as that 
Now should I be going for a second flush after, since they were bacterial, or just dump the tray?

Yeah you might as well. There’s a good chance neither of ours will see another flush but I’ve had bacterial tubs go three or four.
Here’s some of the gnarlier ones, just finished picking all but the one side that’s still got another day to go.

Lol still identical, mine were just crammed so close together you couldn’t see how weird they looked.

Also, can subs bruise? I got some bluish green going on and I’m wondering if it’s bruising or trich. I saw it the other day.
