There doesn't have to be pins in my honest experience. if it has stopped colonizing, i would. I really think you are probably around 90-98 maybe even full colonization... because i can't see the sides due to your black liner, i can't say for certain.
the top looks fantastic however. so yes, i would personally fruit it. i hope i am not overlooking something here, but yeah looks fine.

Take the tape off your liner man...defeats the whole purpose of it, it it hangs down too much trim it some more next time. You want the liner to shrink with the sub so that you dont have any side/bottom pins. Fruit it and you'll have fruit in a week or two (:

 The liner sticks to the sub, eliminating the micro climate between the sides of the tub and the sub.
at first I thought it was to block light, because I taped outside of tub with gorilla tape this did nothing to decrease side pins.
I wonder if you will have fruits before next year :tongueout :

so came to a thoery when i was smoking some oil on my way back to work. A monotub essentially is like a jar. You want to keep the air down and CO2 up so that it doesnt start growing. In the past ive forgotten about some jars and it takes about 2 months for a jar to start growing mushrooms inside the jar if you dont ever open it. So really you should expect the same results with a tub if done correctly i would imagine. So if the tub is at 100% theres a chance you wont ever see a pin til its way after 100%.could also maybe that the sub helps it pin compaired to the jars but i think this helps me put it into more of a understandable way to think about it.
Also in my experience, sense i dont open the trashbag and use only one layer, i just unfold it and put it in the tub flat so there is two layers. It seems to stick and shrink still with the sub still with the tape. The only issue i have is that when the condensastion drips, its sometimes drips and creates a puddle on the top. Guess ill start cutting it down when i do this now.EEEk im so excited. Been about a year and some sense i did a grow.

why evaporation is the key to pinning, dont dab em leave em there and let them evaporate

if it turns yellow it has been sitting in one spot to long. tip your sub and let it run across the surface to another spot it will evaporate

it only makes metabolites in puddles that have been sitting there for days on the sub surface tilting it will move it to another spot and evaporate

Dude take a clean paper towel and soak some of that pool up. no mushrooms will grow from a pool, droplets are OK, but soak a pool up with a clean paper towel.
lol, that oil must been cause your jar to tub comparison has me all

well. After putting into fruiting they started. I left for 7 days and came back to pencil sized mushrooms. only a few tho. I was not fanning at all, so it really looks like too much CO2. Also was very hot in my room n those days, so i fixed that and also added light. So im fanning once daily and might mist a bit. Hopefully they start coming in soon. I can see a shit ton of knots. Ill take pics when i get home. Gonna fire up the PC this weekend and hopefully get 6 or 7 runs in this weekend.
