It's fine! Regarding your concerns:

First timer 6930e78dcb53b

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 Bruises

Also 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 disease

Nice mushrooms, good job for the first grow! Is it all in one bag?

My pleasure! You can harvest mushrooms partially. Pick the ones with open caps and leave all small mushrooms to grow. In 2-3 days pick the others and rehydrate the cake. Check out: Rehydration

You can also make a spore prints to save some money for your myco experiments ;-)

For making prints choose the most beutiful caps (on any flush) Check out: Spore prints
