Lol...lemme try...
Are u using a sgfc? Post a pic.
3 weeks is a long time...but if it's still healthy, don't pull the plug yet, just wait for it. What are your temps? Try giving us a little more info, and you might get better answers.
For future reference, NEVER hijack someone else's thread with ur pics, especially that many times, or you'll get yourself banned.
Edit: your pics are a little blurry too...try to take clear ones...check'em b4 u upload

ok guyS so here is my Shotgun fruiting chamber which has about 100 holes drilled into it, about 3 inches of moist perlite and raised slightly above the ground and i have placed it by a window in my house...

Also my FC has a temp range of 73-77c.. im using mazatepec strain.. I dunked and rolled my cakes for 24hr before placing in fruiting chamber. Here are some better pics of my cake thats been sitting 3 weeks..

make sure you're misting and fanning them, evaporation is a major pinning trigger. Also, there dont seem to be enough holes in your FC. Try to drill some more....seems like a pretty big FC for two cakes...do you have more on the way? A little more perlite wouldn't hurt either, but you're already short on head clearance. If you have a dept. store around, see if you can get a sterilite...theyr'e tall enough and you could prob get 6 cakes ina 21L, and you wouldn't need any more perlite

those holes don't look right, should be 2" spacing with 1/4" drill bit on all 6 sides.

there's not supposed to be condensation on the walls of a sgfc. did you spray the walls with water right before the pic? You should have 1/4" holes every 2" in a grid pattern. Your lid doesn't seem to have that many holes. Still weird that 2 cakes did well while 1 did nothing in the same environment.. Did you remember to give the last cake 1 week consolidation time?

I mist 2-4 times daily and fan 4-6, i figured my holes werent right so i will fix them on my next batch and i will also look into a sterlite...i had 3 cakes in my chamber, one fruited well and had a decent 2nd flush then caught green mold and i threw it out, the second has alao had a good first flush and is now running its second flush in the chamber, however the third cake which looked the healthiest(the pics) is still sitting there with no pins..i find it strange that 2 cakes went through but this one wont budge :/ they took 2 months to colonize then i took them out not sure if they were 100% colonized plus one week...and yes i had sprayed about 15mins before the pic..

Maybe you gave it more attention and inadvertently gave it more fresh air and evap by taking the lid off more often? Judging by your pics, I would think they're hurting for fresh air...

ima have to try that, i dont know what else to do being that my other cakes came out on time. is it possible that it could be some sort of water logged? cause i think i remember reading somewhere that after dunking you shouldnt mist for about a day to let it dry a bit, is this true?

Yes always wait for the moisture to evaporate before misting
