 Monotub Progress Pics

Update - 6/27
Last update. I won't be submitting a final weight either.
Edit: Well, I decided to post one anyways. I got 482g wet off of about 2/3 of the crop. The last third I didn't weigh, and it had a lot of skinny fruits. I'm hoping the entire flush will dry out to be at least 2.5oz. I should be able to pull another 2-3oz from this tub.

I'm really excited about all the mushies I have, but they're losing their veils so early on. Oh well, I guess..

Update - 6/23
Here are some pics of the tub:
  
These pics don't do the tub any justice. You can't even see half of the new primordia and pins.
My biggest fruit looks like it's going to lose its veil in a couple days too. 
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On Monday, 6/18, I saw at least 3-4 pins--micro sized pins--but pins nonetheless. I decided to fruit the tub Tuesday afternoon and expected to see my pinset by this morning. I woke up to very little growth with only a couple new pins.
I should mention that I did dab up some little pools of water yesterday. I misted a couple times and fanned twice as much as I misted, and the polyfill in my holes is loose as well.
What's the deal here? Should I not mist and just fan? Wait it out?
  
Edit: The tub had been colonizing for 13 days before being put into fruiting conditions. More than a week of that was for consolidation. My substrate mix is composed of 8 quarts of spawn, 1 brick of coir (w/ 4 quarts of water), 2.5 quarts of fine verm, and a quarter cup of gypsum.

It is my understanding that with bulk subs using ...say...Damion5050's coir tek, you shouldn't mist until the second flush.....all the moisture is supposed to be in the substrate. Just fan occasionally. That is the way I handled mine and just finished a 1400 gram first flush.
Perhaps a Trusted C could chime in, but, like I said....I remember reading that somewhere on this site.

I see a lot of primordia in those pictures.
I don't mist during the first flush of my monotubs.
Just fan them out well.

maybe more fae or light?
I'm guessing something to trigger a larger pin set.

Thanks for the feedback. I was getting really worried there for a minute.
I'll update/edit this thread when I get my full pinset.

You just got a couple early bloomers. Chill on the misting for a while and let it go.

Yeah, OP. Give it a few more days before you start to worry.  I'm sure you've heard it a hundred times around here. Patience, patience, patience.
