OK pics are coming out very blurry, but this is the casing









Also, my friend has been fanning about 4 times a day for the last 4 days, and also removed the polyfill from the holes

It still looks wet in there if those are water beads all over the place. I would suggest keeping the holes open and perhaps turn the lid sideways for a few hours when the light comes on and see if you can loose some of that surface moisture.

Ideally you would want less mycelium showing through the casing but that's not overlay. Unless there's an unseen bacterial contamination stalling it out, or some unusual color shows up I would expect a good pinset from that casings condition. Give it some more time.

Great advice, especially since when my friend woke up today she noticed a lot more pinning!  Yeah the casing looks a bit dry in some parts but the water beads are still there in other parts.

Once again, thanks to all for the help!  My friend learned a few things from this first grow.  First, her substrate layer needs to be more even, and she believes on her next double tub she won't bother casing.  Second, she is going to use more holes in the tub.  That being said, today she looked at the tub and saw numerous pins, as well as some nice growing (but small)  funguys :crazy2:  Heres some pics





Should my friend continue manually fanning or just let the tub do its job until harvest?
