Grow kits usually turn out this way. It's probably some kind of contamination that's making the pins die.
I suggest searching here reading about the PF tek and making cakes and such.
Then also reading about monotubs and shoebox teks and working with grains

 Seriously, doing it yourself is much better than having to rely on trashcan growkits that were thrown together by God knows who. And the hobby is actually quite fun once you get into it.

PF tek all the way if you're just starting out. Google it, the most well written tek actually isn't on shroomery (sorry guys.) I think it's called PF Tek for dummies or something like that. PM me if you can't find it.
But regardless of where you read about it, PF Tek is so simple and fail-proof. It's a perfect way to learn which is definitely what you need more of. Good luck 👍👍 PM me if you need anything

well, for now, since you already spent your cash on the kit...you need to stop watering it. I would poke few more holes in the bag and just let it sit, do not water it anymore, its damp as hell. It may contam even further, but try and let it go and see what happens

I wonder how hot it is in that thing with the heating mat. I haven't seen anyone using heating mats or any heating on this site.

It's the heating mat. Get rid of it ASAP.

Thank you for all your replies. Much appreciated. I will try not to water it, make some holes for the air and see what happens. I also turned off the heating mat and flipped the cake to the side in the box. It was advised by the seller. Will read about PF tek in the meantime. Will keep you posted.
