Slow-Fruting Monotub Solution?

I made three monotubs of various sizes and substrates, spawn, etc. Not a lot of constant variables. However, they are all in the same fruiting conditions, and while all of them have pinned and are developing fruits, the fruits are taking their sweet time. Like it's taking nearly a week for the veil to break. I have micropore tape on the top holes, poly on the bottom holes, a small fan blowing indirectly, and three daylights. It's 70 degrees inside.

different substrate blocks will fruit differently with ms. I have some fruits that grow almost 10+ days until they are mature. Its a waiting game....enjoy the show!!

micropore tape on your top holes is not a good thing, you want something you can adjust and give you some room to play, POLLY!

I had polyfill in there before, but due to the slow growth I took it out and put the micropore tape. It doesn't seem to be making much of a difference, tbh, but if I need more FAE than I would use polyfill instead. I was trying to pinpoint the problem.

your fruits will stretch out reaching for air, if you were to remove a bottom hole(i don't reccomend you do just saying)i bet the fruits would lean right towards it. loose polly in the top will allow air movement from your fan through and be forced out of your bottom holes

Ok. Interesting. Can the polyfill on the bottom be too tight? Is that something I should consider? I can definitely loosen it.

Well I loosened up the polyfill, top and bottom. I'll see if that does anything.
Also, my tubs only have pins/fruits in one corner of the substrate. What would cause this?
