  It's fine! Regarding your concerns: The blue area (blue circle) is bruising due to oxidation. Most likely due to harsh fanning or spraying, which caused irritation. Try to be more gentle ;-) More info and examples here: Mycelium BruisesAlso there are wet brown dots on mushrooms (yellow circles) – it's bacterial blotch, caused by water drops fallen from the lid or due to misting, but the bacteria come from the substrate. Don't worry, it's safe! Just dry mushrooms throughly. More info, examples + trick on how to prevent excessive condensation on the lid with WD-40 + treatment with chlorinated water here: Bacterial blotch diseaseNice mushrooms, good job for the first grow! Is it all in one bag?
