Everything looks good, give it a few more days.  If your FAE and humidity is good you will be fine :smile:

Is my light in the right away position and do I mist the cakes and the walls 3-5 times a day?

the light looks like it might be a little too close to me, but I'm not sure how much heat it's generating. maybe try bending the neck to get it a little higher up. but i doubt that's preventing it from pinning, I think you just need to give it time

and yeah either mist the walls or mist up above the tub and let the mist fall down inside. iirc you don't want to actually mist the cakes directly.

:facepalm:  Yes, yes you do.

We mist the cakes to replace lost moisture, then we fan out the chamber to help the water we just applied to evaporate.

Mist the cakes directly with a fine mist until they glisten, then fan out the chamber.

No need to mist the plastic walls as they will not grow.

You should also have more perlite in there.

4-5" is recommended.

Well I'm going to take the two cakes I have and put them each in a 2 liter bottle it takes me a week to get perlite so I can use what I got and switch fruiting chambers what do u think

Go buy a cheap smaller container and just make that your SGFC. You won't need more perlite and it should hold humidity better since it's smaller.

What strain are you growing? I just had the same problem with Thai Pink Buffalo, it look a long time to pin; about 7 days in the chamber before I saw ANY signs.  At first I had a small light recommended by others here at Shroomery but I went out on a limb and bought one of these:

http://www.soap.com/p/verilux-happylight-6000-white-base-299795?site=CA&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=cpc_S&utm_term=ZQC-818&utm_campaign=GoogleAW&CAWELAID=1323208991&utm_content=pla&adtype=pla&cagpspn=pla

I put that sucker directly on top of my fruiting chamber and BAM a day later they were all pinning and now they're growing inches every days (using a 12 hr/12hr cycle with the light.  Here are some pics:

FIrst pins after placing the light on top of the SGFC 9/26/13 AM:


12hrs later 9/26/13 PM:


24 hrs later 9/27/13 PM:





Right now 9/28/13 Afternoon:




Setup:




Patience is KEY man!!! I only have about 2 inches of perlite, but I mist twice a day, fan for 30 seconds, mist the cakes directly for about 2 sprays each, and fan again another 30 seconds and let the magic happen! Good luck!!

hey... at least I threw in an "iirc" :lol:

I wonder what I was thinking of. maybe people saying that misting the actual mushrooms when they appear will cause aborts or something?

Nope, not cubes....

If that was the case they would all abort when it rains in nature.

Mushrooms are 90% water, they won't mind a shower every now and then.
