if they aren’t mushy & don’t feel rotten or something i’d say it’s just bruising, considering they look like they were grown pressed up against the side of a tub/bag. some of that grey looks suspect tho but it’s hard to tell from the pic

:whathesaid:
To me it also looks mostly healthy.
They are just bruised from growing pressed against an obstruction.
Some of the guys stuffed in between the other ones do indeed look rather iffy though.


I circled the suspicious looking ones, check if they're mushy and soft and if they are, carefuly pick them or cut them close to the sub.
And generally: If any cap starts turning very dark and the mushroom gets mushy and soft it aborted and will start to rot sooner or later so it is good to pick aborts early. Don't throw them away though, they are mighty potent and will screw you up if you underestimate the little fuckers.
