Ok. Hi
My one and only one first time cake is in my shotgun fc. It is in a warm room next to a window. It gets light and night through out the two full days as of now, that it's been there.
The window is opened for air flow. The suns rays are it's lighting source. I have my perlite beneath the cake and dunked for like 20 hours And rolled in the dry verm,
I dontknow how humid it is in my fc. Idont have a hygrometer and can't buy one soon. My cakes been in there For two daysnow but no pinning signs! I alsodont know what to look for and tried looking it up. . .
I mist and fan and everything as often as i can, how can ichekcthe. Rh without a hygrometer? Likewhat should be ad sign of good rh?
I just want tosee some pins . Or at least know I'll get to see some sometime soon.

Im also on my first grow of Golden Teachers. 10 BRF cakes in a shotgun FC with about 4" perlite. took a while for me to get pins too. They've been in there 2 weeks now and about 4 have 0 pins on them. One cake has a few pins and the others have atleast one or two dozen. I do have some mushrooms growing, about 6 or 7 that or a good 4-5" tall but my yield so far seems very stunted. I hear patience is key and just change things here and there and see how they do. I figured out that I built my shotgun wrong a week and half into it so I had to redo it. I didn't drill holes on all 6 sides and had standing water in the perlite. We'll see how it goes. Im also looking for a little feedback on my cakes. Just search the forums, Ive found many answers to my questions after some searching, it just takes patience. Hang in there.

the RH should be where you need it provided you have 4-5" of damp perlite and enough holes on all sides of your fc. I didnt see any pins for a good 4-5 days. you want to do more fanning than misting. say if you fan 6 times a day, maybe only mist 3 of those times. you want to mist, then fan.

if you have sufficient air exchange (lots of fanning multiple times a day) you shouldn't necessarily have to worry about green molds.

You should see pins in at least 1 week. Mist walls and cakes untill you see pinning. But yeah give it a full week. With first grows we learn patients.
