Casing contam + white knots ? (pics)
    #10024873 -

Hey guys,
This is a tub of WBS that has been cased with peat/verm. It has been in my terrarium for about 2 weeks and I thought it had stalled until yesterday I saw some white knots coming up that I thought were pins but I'm not sure anymore. My terrarium is a mini 4 tier greenhouse, humidity is provided by a cool mist that runs 24/7 and according to my hygrometer humidity stays 95-100% and the temp ranges from 69-72. My incubation temps are around 80-82 so I'm not sure why pinning doesn't initiate quicker once I place the tub in the terrarium. Anyways, the knots haven't been very productive and now I'm starting to see a hint of green on some casing and we definitely don't like green. Please hit me up with any advice concerning my pinning problem and what's up with that hint of green. It's all much appreciated. Oh yeh, I'm switching to a PH balanced casing mix next time maybe that'll help the green (PH balanced by lime and crushed oyster shell) Thanks again

Yeah, thats contamed.  Usally if your fruiting already, and have fruits, you can salvage a flush or two.  But its early, and there isn't much you can do.  Mold changes the PH and releases its own biproducts that retard pin formation- and most the time just prevent it all together.

So do you think the contam is the reason pinning took so long? and the contam is trich, or can you tell yet?
