Alright a question...

So I looked on monday and my B+s had started to pin and grow. For all of monday and tuesday the caps of the mushrooms looked fine, but come wednesday some of the caps have become dark(almost brownish, not the nice orange of the others) and the caps have become deformed a little almost like the skin of some rotting fruit, if that makes any sense. They are cased with saran wrap laying over the top to let them grow up. Also a few of the mushrooms have these blueish/grey lines down their stems. Just wondering what the cause of this could be...bruising?/drying out?/just bad luck?
I'm gonna try to figure out a way to get a picture and post it...but I don't think I'll be able to.

As mescalito says, they're probably aborts. This can be caused by a number of things, from low humidity to high humidity to the Mushroom Gods looking down at your grow and poking at it.
If they don't grow any in the next day or two, pick 'em off and set 'em aside. They're still good to eat -- in fact, they're very high in actives -- a gram of aborts has more stuff in 'em than a gram of normal mush.

Alright thanks. I was thinking they were aborts(the smaller ones) and the taller ones I wasn't sure. I'm gonna just pick them tomorrow if no more growth and get ready to eat them. =)

dont eat a gram of shrooms no matter if its aborts or not... i think its a waste until you get to about 2grams. just my opinion however.

u cant always look down on a gram of shrooms. i think the testing point for shrooms is a gram, to be on the safe side. Last saturday i tested some new shrooms i got form a friend, only took half an eighth. myusual shroom dose is 4-5 grams. the shrooms blew my freakin mind wide open all over the universe. my friend tried the shrooms 2 nights ago and only took .6 of a gram and he got a massive trip, so massive it was bad. just my experience with dosage.

Naw, just to test and see how strong they are. 1g should be just enough that you can feel 'em, but not enough so that you're in danger of being really whacked out if they're particularly more potent than usual.
You should NEVER test shrooms that you think might be dangerous by eating them. You shouldn't do them, period.

I heartily recomment a scale. All you need is something that can weigh out a few grams, and there're jewler's scales that're both accurate and very cheap.
You can also build your own if you're even vaguely handy.
