First time grower - Need help

[CaidenHenson]

This is my first time attempting to grow psychedelic mushrooms and I just a little lost. I bought a C.A.S kit from a store nearby and they had me pick it up, around the time it was at the end of the cultivating stage. It still took about a week before I started seeing pins but within 24 hours of seeing pins pop up, they were huge! That's about where we are now. The directions I was given tells me to fan them 3 times a day for 30 seconds while also spraying the tub like lid with water to maintain humidity. I've been doing all of this. A couple things I've noticed that just didn't seem to "right" is that a couple of them are just massive. Are they going to outgrow this kit I was given? I also noticed that a couple of the bugger ones are resting against the side of the tub like lid. I may even see some coloring where they are resting. Is this ok? If not how can I fix it? Last thing I thought I could ask is, when exactly do I know when to cut them? I've watched some videos on it but all the videos I see is to wait until the gills are exposed... but I see the gills on all the larger ones, yet I don't necessarily think they are ready.

Nice flush! The first and last one?
the coloring is just bruising so don't worry. If you see blue then its ok
The small pins turned dark blue are called "aborts" and they are edible. The potency of those aborts is high.
Really nice kit! I use to cut in half the big ones and dry them in the dehumidifier.
If u like mushrooms, and high yields you should start your owns from spores.
Do you still have the kit? The contamination hit it?

I am certain that that kit is done flushing by now. Anyhow those are albino penis envy and all penis envy variiaties grow kind of mutated as it is a mutant strain and its hard to get a spore print from them as most of the time they do not produce any and second the cap is always small. so when to pick them, I have never grown penis envy but in regards to Picking I pick right before the veil breaks as that is the best quality and you never have to deal with your substrate getting covered with spores.
