GT dark caps with white edges?

Hello,
So I am actually posting for a friend (no joke) who is growing GTs and has a small cluster on one cake that has what looks like mature little GTs a little over-ready to harvest but it's the cap color that he's concerned about. These look too big to be aborts to me, and the fact the caps opened like that. Is this just a case of genetics and environment/humidity possibly? Hopefully this is not a sign of contam? My experience is only with PE and I've never seen a cluster like this. 
First pic is all the other GTs for color reference. 2nd pic are the strange dark ones.

Those are really cool looking mushrooms. Can you get some better pictures from him? Do they bruise blue?

I'll ask him for more pics...by tomorrow they will look different I'm sure. I'll ask about the bruising too. The regular ones bruise very blue, but not sure about these weird little ones...

I know! I've seen a lot of pics of a lot of cubes but I've never seen dark caps on a cluster like that with the white edges. Very weird if it's a genetic variation.

Was it an MS grow? Could it be a different type of mushroom variety in a vendor syringe? Does it bruise blue?
Curious about this one

I recently had a panaeolus bisporus syringe that turned out to be golden oyster... so disappointing. But I’ll get a nice meal out of it

Updated pics from today....they still don't look like GTs. Strange little guys! I remember he showed me a pic of the syringe and it had a lot of clumps of spores...who knows maybe something else got in that batch. Even so, they don't look like any cubes I've seen!
