Something very strange all over my casings... (PICS) *13-05 UPDATE*

Ok guys, I need some advice. I am very worried! When I opened my casings for the usual misting I couldn't help noticing some very strange things popping all over. Then when I saw all the casings where showing the same weird growth...
Pls anyone tell me what to do with this!!!!!!!
This is a Mex Pal. WBS Inoced with agar wedge, substrate is mini pony poo+verm (15%), cased with 50/50 coco coir+verm. Incubated at 27*C and pinned at 21*C.
This is the same thing as above, but spores where aquired from the wild in southern Brazil, probably a new strain of cubies.
This one is another one from my wild spores, but it's showing some white stuff on the little caps... any idea what could this be?
Now I have a big problem... I have 8 of these trays, plus 4 BRF jars ready to be birthed... but only 1 small PmP, and it's already almost full with other 3 casings and 2 jars. Can anyone lend me a martha or something...?
I guess I got a little over excited with the first experiments and made too many casings
I guess I didn't believe they would all work out... I seriously thought it would take longer for the to achieve a monster flush (at least the pinning I got down...)
I dedicate this work to all the great people here at the shroomery that helped me (Agar, Shirley, Scat, Ohm, Roadkill, Diver, Juan del Pueblo, and many others I can't recall the names right now)! Without you people this would never be possible.
Shroomery > all

Looks like mold to me too. That is some multi colored crap all over your casing. I have never seen anything like that but I would guess it can't be good.

I can't make out anything in the pics to be worried about. The white on the caps is likely caused by excessive humidity and isn't really a problem.

It was supposed to be a joke... there is nothing wrong with the casings.
The green you see on the thumbnails is due to file compression... if you open the file you will see that there is no green stuff anywhere, just a forest of pins.

I?d say that adding all 8 casings I have, there must be well over 500 pins.
I am eager to see what they will look like when they start growing, there?s no room for them all for sure. Many will abhort probably...

Dude, do not eat! Green is the enemy and you got plenty of it. Chuck it off as a loss and refine your sterilization technique.

That looks contaminated. I see pins sprouting from some sort of white mold everywhere. I wouldnt eat anything that comes off that casing, it might make you feel a little funny. I've even heard of some people start seeing things! Sounds scary to me...

I knew that white mold was going to eat out my whole casing!!! Now the whole thing is packed with those brown pins heads, and no matter how much I try to eliminate them with my distiled water spray, the resist and actually more and more are coming from all over. The sides of the casing are showing a lot of these guys as well.
I will have an update later on

Here goes:
First one is a M Pal, the second one is an Orissa.
Now this is one of the casings from my wild spores. I wonder if this strain I found is a good pinner...
This is the same last casing yesterday night (pictures taken less then 12 hours before the one above)
I guess this one really hit the spot!
What do you guys think???

I've had stuff like that happen to me. You'll get a decent flush, but right after that, the tray will go south.

Brazils:
As you can see they are quite prolific pinners and fruiters. I wasnt happy with Brazils potency on grain, but on poo BLEW my socks off. They tend to look like more then they are too, drying smaller. I'll be interested to see if yours look like mine when they mature...so far, very similar.

The pins really look similar to what I got. THey have a little of a greysh color, something I don't see on the other strains. I can see that same color on your pins, also the number of pins looks just like yours. So I guess the strains are very similar. They are maturing a little bit slower then the Mex Pal and the Orissa, but they are showing a whole lot more pins, probably twice as much. Well wait a few more days and see what happens. Now last time I looked I noticed a few abhorts begining to form, maybe I am over misting them a bit. I am gonna reduce the misting and see if they keep appearing. So far it's looking very good, will be drying mushrooms on sunday for sure.

Brazils had a high abort ratio, along with many nice mature shrooms...just to many pins. When caps open, should form a solid span though. Mine were very quick in all stages up until they pinned, they were also slow to mature.
