it can take longer, just like with spores...ist stil muti genetic's so some will colonize slower then others.. if you had mycelium in there then it'll grow out.

All I know is that with my regular honey LC, my WBS jars colonize within 6 days after the first shake!!! I leave them for an extra couple weeks of course, but they colonize 100% within a week after my LC is used :-)

Yeah, I hated that layer of dry verm anyway, I always felt like I was washing off potential pins when I rinsed after birthing.
The tub with the roof I designed has like 35 pins that I can count so far and the mono built to spec hs 2 or 3 pins, introduced to fruiting at same time, same mix, ratio, same everything except lid.

Top,
Can you guess which mono this one is?  
No fanning, no misting. Set & forget. Standard mono
Outta these tubs

Nice Tod! I have 1 66qt msg that i'm going to be spawning to along with a large 55 GAL tub that I'm gonna spawn 1 brink coir, 3 qts verm, and 8 qts grain. and watch that bitch take off!
Then I'm gonna fill up my 2 sgfc, and convert another 4 tubs to monos and get them going as well! I also am building a new large GH which will have 2 cool mists and an ultra sonic running! Can't wait!

Sorry been very busy with kids and stuff, ended up with over an ounce dry with 5 quarts of spawn and a brick of coir in two mini monos, I threw the first one out because I needed the tote for more spawn. The second tub still has a few pins on it, waiting for second flush.
Pretty soon I will have every dish in the house full lol. I filled a cake pan with coir/verm and spawned crumbled PF cakes to the coir pretty thick and covered it with foil and poked a few holes.
The casserole dish is getting close to full colonization, haven't really messed with it. What I am most proud of is the Tupperware, 6" x 5" x 5", it is almost fully colonized, it will look so cool in the SGFC. I don't know how I am going to do the big dish yet, I was thinking about hanging it above the sub somehow or standing it up on it's side, just don't know how. I don't have the money for a shelf or I would just get one. I was thinking a criss cross pattern with some fishing line or dental floss with wax paper protecting the sub from the string, with the floss taped to opposite corners on both top and tied to the bottom going to the top of sub with an O screw or a few small holes in bottom corner of tub.

Well I ended up with over an ounce cracker dry from the first flush on the brick of coir in two tubs. I took one and picked everything and threw it away because I had 6 more quarts of ready rye spawn and I only had one empty tub. I like the mini monos, I am experimenting with a hybrid with 10 11/2 inch holes near the sub and only one hole at the top for the light jar. If I get some good results with it I will make a grow log and post a link to it here.
I think that my other mono is about done, it has 15 or so pins left on it, I will give them a few days to mature then harvest and then throw the sub in a bag to wait to be buried in my local compost pile and check on the spot later.

a qty of 10 1-1/2" holes @ sub level is going to dry out your substrate pretty quickly. Also, you're not going to have a lot of air movement in the tubs going upwards due to not having holes raised on the ends. That's the point of the two holes on the ends. Personally, I use 2 1-1/8" holes on the sides @ sub level & 1 1-1/8" hole on the ends just under the handles.
I just don't see that "hybrid" design working well. Seems like too much FAE & not enough upwards airflow. Remember that hot and humid air rises while cool air settles. You want to have a constant light flow of air across the top of the substrate & out the top to regulate humidity & temp. FE is regulated by the poly in the holes.

only 1 oz? wait, did you use 1 brick of coir to two tubs? How deep was your substrate? Were they standard mono size or 1/2 size monos?

I used one brick and 21/2 quarts of spawn per mini tub.
I plan on using this 12/12 on the lowest setting     and making the poly slightly tighter than almost falling out to compensate for the extra holes. If it doesn't work I will take your advice TL and I will start by drilling small holes stuffed with unused cigarette filters and move up in size to see which works best.
The fan barely pulls any air at all on the lowest voltage and I will just mist it when light goes out and then replace the light with the fan sealed around the big top hole to slowly pull air through all the bottom holes, keep an eye on humidity at sub level and decide from there how long I will fan it at night. I think it will work okay as long as I don't get the poly too lose, if it is tight enough it will still get 12 hours of constant FAE in the dark and it won't dry out the sub too bad. I may even make a full size mono with two of those lights in the lid so that when I am fanning during the day the sub will still be getting some light. Just experiments to see what I like, I already know that I like the fan because when I misted my other tub I could put it on one hole for five minutes and dry all the pins out, sometimes I would forget it and leave it on for hours and the RH would only drop to 80%, and on that one the poly was really really lose on the bottom.    
I have the same lid design going on it after it colonizes as I used for my first mono. 
The sub is 4" thick with 10 pounds of zoo poo sub mix/verm(was a little on the wet side) 31/2 quarts of chitwan colonized rye. What ratio is that anyone know, or know the formula, nm I google it? It looked really thick with grain. Well if a quart is about a pound then it would be 3:1 ratio??? I don't know I am burnt.
