Uhh, what method did you use to cultivate them? I doubt they are pans or something. Probably are cubes... Spore print will easily separate the two, so if you have any further doubt just do that and you wont have to ask us.

They're Psilocybe cubensis. Ask Phooey suggested, abnormal growth is probably due to conditions in which they were grown (or genetics). Thats all we can tell you in the hunting forum.
Trying to make an ID on a strain of cubes is pointless. Strain designations are not scientific (a marketing poly, in my opinion) and identifying them is completely ambiguous.
Bottom line: Psilocybe cubensis is Psilocybe cubensis. They're active. Strain is irrelevant.

much appreciated, I've thought "strains" were sorta sketchy, sorry to word the question like that. I was more concerned with the potential of them simply not being cubensis at all. thanks for all the input

When cultivating, as long as they drop purple brown spores, have gills and bruise blue, it's going to be Ps. cubensis in most cases. Safe for consumptions as long as they're not contam'd.
It should be noted that some genetic mutations of Psilocybe cubensis do not typically drop spores. The "penis envy" strain is notorious for not dropping spores. Your mushrooms have vaguely similar properties of the penis envy strain. Again, this could be due to growing conditions (temp, humidity/moisture, substrate, etc).
