Hello back again. I have looked around and most tubs that are colonized are fully done. Mine isn't fully done but I'd say the surface is about 75% covered. It's been about a week since I put 70% colonized jars in tub. I know they weren't 100 but it seemed the jars were dried out and the so I went with it.
So here is my thing. The mycelia is all white but there is these thicker parts that look like veins and sorta sticking up on sides of trash bag and just up in air. I tried to take a pic thru the bin hopefully the are good enough to show what I see. And if everything is ok The pic thru the bin gives them an off white look but trust me its cotton ball white in real life.

Thank you agentg. But to the question I asked do you or anyone else on here have an idea what the white vein looking thing sticking in air are? I tried to search here and google for a scientific name but I guess "white veiny things in mycelia" doesn't really yield good answers lol.
Thanks again.

What you refer to as white veins is actually just mycelium, rhizomorphic mycelium... that tub is ready to fruit. Untape those holes and stuff 'em with polyfill and mist once a day. Remember the main trigger for pinning is evaporation which is provided by fresh air exchange. If you provide adequate FAE you can expect a nice pin set.
Looking good so far, keep posting lots of pictures !

Thank you very much butt head. Lol that name geeks out. But yeah thanks. I was thinking of waiting a few more days for consolidation. Any input?
Thanks again agentg and butt head.

Bump on consolidation? Or just start fruiting?

Quick question please help.
I've looked on here for a lil bit but most threads deal with cakes. I want to know the exact deal on fanning and misting.
From what I gather I plug holes with poly fill and mist sides of tub not the colonized bulk and fan couple times a day. Does that sound right?
Or should I must the bulk to rehydrate it and when it starts to pin just spray the walls?
Sorry if question has been answered somewhere but I looked for a while and like stated most people were talking of cakes. Not tub.
Any help would be welcomed.

Do not mist the walls, they wont grow silly. 
Mist the substrate directly until it glistens, then fan out the chamber to get the humid air out and make room for evaporation.
Main pinning triggers are full colonization, FAE and Evaporation off of the substrate.
Light is a secondary pinning trigger. For tropical species temperature is not a pinning factor.
That being said bulk substrates in monotubs should have all the moisture they need for the first flush, so misting is not needed, just fanning, but a lot of people mist a little just for the hell of it. If you have your polyfill set right, the tubs should be set and forget.

Awesome notahacker. Thank you. The strain is just a mex cube I got as free syringe. Decided to practice with cubes and get the hang of it. Since this is my first time just want to make sure I dot screw stuff up with syringes I paid for.
Hopefully my next update will be pins or something good.

A little update and question. How does this look so far? I took the tape off the holes early Saturday morning. I've been fanning about twice a day. And have them on 12 hour life cycle.
So this is what it looks like. This is my first time and pictures don't do it justice. There is something beautiful about mycelium. The last pic is my favorite. It looks like a tree in winter all covered in snow growing up the side of trash bag.
And as usual any thoughts would be more then welcomed.

Little update. The pin set isn't as even as I would like. But at least there are mushrooms growing that's what I was hoping for. I heard the second flush the pin set gets more even. But like I stated for my first time growing mushrooms just seeing them makes my day.
Please let me know what you guys think and suggestions. Thanks for everything so far shroomery heads.
A general view

One of the corners

One random shroom is cracked open. Non of the others did this. Fucking weird. I read somewhere it might be the humidity so I put the humidifier in there with lid cracked so condensation doesn't drop water on shrooms

This is the biggest mushy so far. I accidently touched it and it bruised. You can sorta see the bluish bruise

Thanks. Any ideas bout why that one mushy split in middle? And the uneven pin set?

They are funny creatures... when you isolate right, get perfect substrate %'s, get your humidity perfect and have the exact right lighting.... it still might grow weird. FAE and evaporation are your main pinning triggers coupled with the right light though. So... when you get that down

The split shroom is probably due to rapid growth.

Yea...splitting usually means rapid growth. thats how you end up with caps that look like stars or flowers.nice grow btw
