Strange bulbous mushroom alongside Psilocybe cubensis 1

It's my first time growing mushrooms from a grow kit I bought in the Netherlands. Today mushroom pinning has started but for the last 4 days I've had this weird bigger mushroom in the corner - I originally assumed it is also Psilocybe cubensis (golden teacher) but it looks so much different? What is it? Is it GT too or some weird contamination? What do I do?

Well that’s a cool one for your first post! Seems like some sort of mutation, you better clone that thing! But wait and see how it develops first, definitely post progress pics if it get cooler (:

Oh, so it's something special? I was worried it was contamination, but a mutation sounds so cool How best can I clone it? I have no equipment, but maybe there's still some time to buy the right tools (if not too expensive haha) and save this little fellow!

Haha! Well, there’s special and there’s sPeCIaL, who knows what you’ve got till you clone it and try to grow it out again, it might just grow like normal but you should learn how to make/use agar regardless, it’s easy af and to grow mushrooms you can’t do without it, then you can clone (:

For cloning you should read into agar, f.e. here. In general also have a read here.
You have a blob mutation, absolute save to consume. For cloning you would cut the fruit open and take some small tissue from the relative clean inner core, to finally place it on agar, to let mycelium grow.
What's your environment mate? The brick shrunk a fair amount, you'll see tons of sidepins.

Thanks, let's see if SPECIAL or SpEcIaL Also thanks for the links, I'm new to it all so still learning but love it!
It grows in my living room which is relatively warm and with indirect sunlight. I didn't know whether I should spray it with water (the instructions said not to...). Do you think I should add water or will it be fine?

Look here for how surfaces should look. You only mist if it doesn´t.
Instructions, errr...forget them. They´re mostly decades old, and just copied over and over. Misting carefully with a fine mister from high above doesn´t hurt, just no standing water on caps or drowning little pins.
Is the kit placed in a filterbag? Top fixed with paperclips?

Thank you all for great resources! As promised here's the update - not sure when to pick it up! Would be really cool to clone it.
And yes, it is in a plastic bag with these little holes and the top is secured with large paperclips.

For now, all you need is some aluminum foil to make a spore print. Make a spore print and store it until you are ready to clone. Here’s a video of how to do it. It’s stupid easy.

Thank you! That does look easy, will try that! But do you think the mushroom is ready or should I let it grow a bit longer? It honestly looks just like a blob so don't know if it's ready to release spores or if I should wait longer?

Hard to say. I’ve never seen anything like that in my grows. If it’s a blob, I’m not sure how you’d clone it without some agar. Can’t get a spore print if it’s not dropping spores. If it were me, I’d just watch it for a couple of days and if it’s just doing blob stuff, I’d pop it outta there and toss it in the trash. Somebody more knowledgeable than me might have a better idea though.
