8 days no pins, white spiky mycelia? What do you think?

I have three different strains growing in my Shotgun FC. They were all birthed, dunked and rolled 8 days ago. The humidity is at around 90-95% the temp is averaging 70. It looks like there is white spiky mycelia growing around some of the cakes., But no pins.
Is my temp to low? I am misting and fanning 5 to 6 times a day, and all in all the Fc looks and smells good. I have the FC in a room that gets lots of indirect sunlight, and my FC is a foot or so off the ground. When can I hope to see pins?

I feel like 70 is a little low. Maybe a little higher imo, like 75-80.

Nope, temps are great. I have a tiny fan that I keep on my SGFC a few feet away for some air circulation. i let it run just a few hours a day

You could cut it and segragate it in a pop bottle fc and see what happens, but I wouldnt leave that close to any projects I had hope for.
