Still no pins.....Or is this a pin? Pictures.... Need help!!

Ok well it has been 8 days since birth, and my cakes still have not pinned. Please refer to my lastPost Well I took soochi's advice soon as she posted it, and added moist verm to the tops and bottoms of the cakes. Well now the verm is dried out, I just(as in 5 mins ago)added a lil more moist verm to the tops of the cakes. I'm really worried they will never pin, and im pulling out my hair over here. I noticed some of the hypnol knots have a blueish tint to them. Also on inspection of the cakes i noticed one cake has a knot that looks like it has a tanish color underneth it as seen below in the second picture. What is this? This is my first time growing and any advice/help would be sooo much appreciated. When will these suckers pin??

Well I bought a digital hydrometer but soon as it gets to 89% the next reading instead of 90% it just reads HI, So I am guessing it is between 90-95%. And the temp reading from it says it is currently 77 degrees. And yes I have tall flouro lamp in my room to light my room because I do not have over head lghting and i just have um sitting under that so they get light from that. But yesterday I put the fruiting chamber under my window with the blinds closed, that way I dont have to keep my light on in my room alot, and it gets enough indirect light.

all looks good. 8 days would be pretty quick - normally from 8 to about 13 days. that thing could well be a pin - can you get a better shot of it?

No I can not get a better shot of it sorry, I only have a webcam and it takes shitty pictures. And that is the only thing i see on any of the 9 cakes that looks like a pin. They all have hympal knots. Im ust getting tired of waiting and was wondering how long it took anyone elses cakes to grow after birth. It has been almost 9 days since i birthed them and still no mushies.

dont keep adding a layer of verm. mist it lightly if it becomes dry with diluted h2o2. That looks like a pin to me, just be patient it takes time usually around two weeks. but almost always longer than you think. Make sure that you have adequate humidity in your terrarium, you should see condensation on the inside (sides) of your terrarium. and rememeber to fan daily.
Oh, and Im a guy not a gal.

I wasn't trying to be a smart ass; there is a device called a hydrometer and it has nothing to do with measuring humidity; I just wanted you to know the difference (in case you didn't) cause no one ever told me. Peace, and goodluck with the pinning btw, I use a dvorak keyboard layout, they are even closer on mine

LOL, I was just messing with you neutralizer. And sorry soochie i thought you were a gal, an honest mistake bro. Well soochie you said <dont keep adding a layer of verm. mist it lightly if it becomes dry with diluted h2o2> What the fuck is h2o2? I know h2o is water. But im new to all this could you put that into dumby terms for me. And maybe how i could obtain it or make it.

H2O2 is hydrogen peroxide. Some people like to use a weak solution of hydrogen peroxide and water to help prevent contamination. It should be available at any *-mart or drug store for a couple bucks.

Dude i know what hydrogen peroxide is but how do i dilute it? Whats the ratio? I'm guessing for a diluted solution, use a 1:10 ratio.

I don't measure mine exactly, but if I had to guess it'd probably be not less than 1:20 concentration. I just put water in a bottle, add a good glug of H2O2 and mix. You can spray the casings with that, and also put that in the bottom of the terrarium with the perlite for humidification (that's what I do for humidification).
