Assuming your conditions are ideal (and what you've said sounds OK to me) you should see pins before a week.

That's an overdone estimate though. Could be a few days.

The first grow is always the hardest to wait.
Just wait till you see the pins.
THAT'S when the real waiting starts.

EDIT: I wouldn't necessarily expect pins in a week, you should still be ok.

it has been one week exactally today and i dont see any pinns yet. my FC is totally automated. I have an ultrasonic humidifier, bed of perlite and a small cpu fan keeping up on the fresh air changes. a 12/12 timer and a Flourescent grow light. I would be very excited to see growth in the next week

Sounds like you have the fruiting conditions right, but with that many strains, and that many jars, I wonder if you let every jar fully colonize. DID THEY ALL REALLY FULLY COLONIZE AT THE SAME TIME?!

Did you dunk and Roll? Did you case it? Lots of questions to be answered on a grow like that.

well i started with 32 jars 4 of each strain, 2 contaminated and i have 16 still colonizing and about ready for birthing. they seem to be random jars and strains and the only one with all 4 jars in is the Colorado strain, and seeing as how i live in CO i think it was a good choice for me.

As Its my first grow, some got dunked(5), some got dunked and rolled(3), some got cased(4) and some were fruited directly(6),16 jars waiting in incubator to colonize. Im just trying to see what works best for me. and with all of the different TEKs and info i figured why not try as much as possible, since this REALLY is just an experiment at life Right?

Ok so here are pics of my cakes at 1 week in the FC. i dont have much of an idea as to what it is that i should be looking for here but i dont think any of them are pinning yet, How long do cakes usually take to begin fruiting? do any of these look like they are doing anything?

Pic quality is low, but...

It looks like they're knotting to me. That last pic shows primordia, which will soon turn into pins (unless that's perlite stuck to the cake.)

Make sure that the PC fan you have in there isn't blowing directly on any of the cakes. Even in very high humidity, it'll quickly dry them out.

You will have pins very soon. Those things will seem to appear 5 minutes after the last time you looked at it. Sit tight, you are doing fine. These didnt show any signs of pins until about day 9.

with cakes, you just gotta let them do it in their own time
and some times, they really do take their time

but with a casing
you should be able to initiate pinning
misting at just the right time is crucial

First off, Thanks!! for cheering me up, No that is not perlite stick to the cake it is a puffy cotton like growth, Thats Primordia?!,
Also I have this cake that a friend gave to me... It is Penis Envy. My bro hooked me up with a fully colonized cake just 4 days after i started growing for myself, I held on to it for 1 week then dunked/birthed it into my fc almost 3.5 weeks ago, it hasnt seemed to do anything. Now all of my other cakes are passing up its productivity, does anyone have any ideas as to what might be going wrong there?

The PC fan pulls air in through the vaporizer and exhausts it straight out the front of the FC, and is only running at 3 volts. small pieces of perlite are plenty enough to stop it when they make it in so i grilled the fan on the inside and doubt that it is blowing on any of the cakes, it blows out

No.  12/12 is what you want to use.  MANY people have tested different lighting schedules, but 12/12 always seems to come out on top. :thumbup:

Mushies don't need light like plants do they use it more as a way of when to start fruiting there is no photosynthesis so 12/12 is good because it just tells them hey lets start fruiting lol
