 blue/dark, stunted-growth mushrooms: what happened?

on my cakes (MMGG tek) i have pinheads that have formed. on one cake, the mushrooms are growing fine. on the ones with pinheads, the mushrooms definately aren't normal. they are not growing hardley at all(about 1 in. long), and the parts that will develop into the caps look dark blue or almost black with light spots. they also have white fluffy stuff growing on their bases. the development of the mushrooms seems to be arrested. they just won't show signs of growth. i don't really see any contams, but there might be cobweb mold present(i'm not sure how to identify cobweb mold). everything on the cakes is white, but there are fluffy parts. if it is cobweb mold or another contam, it happened in the chamber, not the jars. any thoughts about this anyone?
the above is a fictional account my dog experienced

Those pins sound like aborts. They won't grow anymore so its just best to pull them off and dry 'em. What strain are you using.
Tired of pimping yourself on the corner to afford spores? Well throw out that red dress and go to the FSR, for spores even you can afford.

i'm growing p. cubensis, i think it's the B+. i got the spores from homestead and they didn't specify what they were sending me. at the time i didn't know to ask what i was getting, i was just stoked to get some spores. but from what i can tell (just from pictures i've seen) they look like B+. maybe you could help. in 6 days it was about 6 to 7 inches in length an the cap was just about to be completely seperate from the stem. there was just that thin "skin" attatched from the bottom of the cap to the stem. was this B+? anyways, the reason i was concerned was that it was my first flush. i think maybe my humidity is too low.
yup

What color are the caps of the mature mushrooms? i.e. dark brown, red brown, golden brown, purplish. It sounds like you have gotten alot of aborts, if so it sounds like you have the Amazonian strain (A.K.A. PF or Matias Romero) but I need to know the cap color to be sure.

this same exact thing happened to me. im not sure what strain i have but at the biggest the mushrooms grow to about 1-2 inches and stop. a lot of them r very small and just stopped. the growth on some didnt cease completely but i can tell something is wrong. the mushrooms that have broken veils have light yellow/brown caps and some of the smaller ones have a red/brown color.
