No these are not pins... they are just thin strips of myco almost... or did you not think they were pins? if so what is it?

An Excerpt from Casing for Dummies: "After 5-14 days of placing in the terrarium and maintaining the conditions described above, you should start noticing little hyphal knots forming. They resemble thick strands of mycelium and will develop into healthy mushrooms if the conditions are favorable."
Does that help?

As long as the log is covered with something the mycelia will continue to grow. When it is ready it will put out hyphael knots which will form into pins. Odviously dont uncover the log, just poke holes in it.

I have a question for you. If your casing has been fully colonized for going on four days now (since you first made the post) then why aren't you putting it in the fruiting chamber? What are you waiting for?
