Does this look ok?

Hi -- this is day #3 of fruiting my first ever batch of mushrooms. I'm posting this image to let the experts see and comment about how they think this is going.
I have additional pics, but this is fairly representational of what I have on my other 14 brf cakces.
Peace

Looks ok so far. Tiny hint of blue at the base of the pins- cakes aren't drying out, are they? You dunked them at birth?

Yes - dunked for 24 hours. What's the best way to tell if the cakes are drying out? I've been misting and fanning at least 4x a day, but usually 6-8x.
A fatty like this isn't indicative of anything slightly wrong, like too little humidity? I also thought that once they pin it's only 2-3 days before harvest. I'm not impatient, I'm just an expectant father.
Thanks & Peace

If you dunked, then don't mess with it. You might want to check your perlite- rewet it, fluff it up maybe. Short fat shrooms indicate something, but I'm not sure what. Could be a lot of things including genetics. Depending on temps, 5-10 days from pin to harvest, so wait and see, they might surprise you.

Ok, cool. The perlite feels pretty wet, but I could fluff it up a bit. My temp varies from 76F-80F, and the humidity is up around 85%. Thanks for the pin to harvest duration -- I was obviously under the wrong impression.

As a cake cultivator, you spot the pins almost immediately, days in advance of spotting the same sort of thing in your yard. It's an optical illusion that they spring up overnight. Whatever you are doing is working, I wouldn't change anything. Mist and fan, that's where it's at. Keep us updated.

Thanks for the reassurance, Doc_T. I've been very pleased with the progress of this project. I sure hope they make an interesting study.
