Clear pin heads ?

I have a monotub that has been in fruiting conditions for about 4 days now, i have not seen any pins until today when i saw a tiny little mushroom like shape with a kinda translucent head. Is it normal to see small pins with clear pinheads and am i supposed to be expecting alot more pins than just 1 at this point in time?
Cheers

These look like hypeal knots. Some of them will eventually develop into primordia and then pins. This a sign that the fruiting process has begun.

Dude...buy a light. They're cheap. Otherwise, just calm down a little and let your fungus work. If you have a reasonable amount of control over the environment in your FC, they'll come around in their own time. Good luck.

I don't see how i am not calm? Yes i am excited my first grow is going so well though! so will any light source do? Because finding a fluorescent bulb in my area is quite hard and expensive.
Thanks!

No, not any light will do. Make sure it's the daylight variety or it says 6500K. The cheapest I've seem 'em are the CFL kind (compact florescent light bulb). They can be obtained at any grocery store or wal-mart.
If you don't mind, you should post some pics of your new pins.

Hmm hard to say, does it give off a weird bright bluish white light? If not then it may not be correct. Heck it may not be correct anyway. 6500K bulbs are pretty distinct, you'd probably know if it was that kind. Your best bet is to buy an actual 6500K bulb and compare.
