I have my PF tek cakes in my fc for a week now. The Humidity is right around 90%, but sometimes drops down to 85%. The temp is between 69-71, but averages 70 most of the time. I am misting with an aerated mister that is normally used for foliar feeding plants, it puts out a real fine mist. I am fanning 5-7 times a day. It seems like my perlite might be a little dry, but other than that, I can't figure out why I have zero pins. Any ideas wonderful world of the shroomery?

I didn't see pins right away but after 2 weeks I have lots of pins. Just keep misting and fanning.

Of all the waits in this hobby, this is the hardest one IMO.
I'm doing my first bulk grow after some years off and my trays have been in the FC for about the same time as yours with no pins in sight yet.
Despite myself,and knowing that all I need do is wait: I am freakkkinnnnn oouuuttt maaaaannn!

indeed. in the weekly routine this thread passes by a hundred times or so, the only thing that can be said is: Patience is a virtue.

Sounds like your doing everything right your perlite shouldn't be too dry if your misting that much,it can take over two weeks sometimes to pin you can sometimes coax stubborn pins by putting them in direct sunlight for a hour or so

I was in the exact same boat as you just a couple of days ago. Birthed 10 jars (waiting 1 week after full colonization). One week goes by and still no pins. I had the SGFC sitting on top of a box so I changed out the box for a stand that allowed better air flow into the bottom. The other thing I did was increase the temp in the room. I was steadily at 68 degrees and increased it up to 74 and BAM... overnight I got pins. Now a couple days later I've got 18+ good sized pins. Patience is definitely key but I thought I'd throw out those suggestions to you as well. Good luck.
Edit- You do have a light source on these as well correct?

Right on Ya'll thanks. I have them in a room which gets indirect sunlight for about 12 hours or so. The jars were fully colonized and then I waited maybe 10 days befor dunking and rolling etc. I guess I just got to wait it out. ........But I want them nowwwwwwwwwwww!
