The Beast Has Struck

Welp...the discoloration turned out to be contamination. There was no smell other than the normal dirt, garden soil type smell too so thats why I wasn't sure. Oh well...not giving up. I do have another fruiting block colonizing so hopefully it doesn't end up contaminated as well. I have some agar dishes going and some LC that looks good. Inoculated my own grain that I prepared myself so wish me luck on that. Took the FC I had this in, drained peroxide over the perlite and sprayed FC down with it too; just letting it sit for now.
Here's some pics of the beast.

Wait a minute...it's not green though now. It's a deep blue...is this good? Some very small pins are on too.

Looks more like bruising than the beast.
Did it have a green look before?

My eyesight isn't the best and I thought it was green, but after looking at the pics, I saw it was more blue. Went back to look at the block again with a small flashlight and it was a deep blue. And I was about to toss it 
My FC is back up to the right RH and I have the block back in.

Well guys...Im excited to say...and yes, perhaps more excited than I should be, but considering the many iffy moments throughout this colonies progress, I am excited.
I see pins on top...some starters here and there. My heart seems full...as I stand here and stare. And I think to myself...what a wonderful world  
Heres a pic a the little mush-babies (What an adorable sight).

I have a question. Or more like a question towards my observation. Temps in the fruiting ranged from 68 to 70 degrees. However, over the past several days temps outside have been in the high 90s and even reached 101. With that, the temps in my room have been up and down and my AC has been working overtime. This caused the temps in my FC to rise slightly to around 72 and 73.
I typed all that to bring the question of my observation. Of course it was 10 days and I saw the first few pins, but now, with the temp increase, there are more pins and tiny pins everywhere. Could this be because of the temp increase? This also caused the RH in the FC to drop from a high 97% to 93%. This could be because of the formation of pins?
Thanks in advance for playing along.
