Cronicr...you're the first person to say it looks great. You;re also the only "Trusted Cultivator" to comment (Congrats BTW!)
Give it another week and then start FAE or do it while on vacation?

what do you think is the reason it wont colonize properly cron? I guess it must be bacterial as it cant be seen, even though the myc itself look healthy.
the 2-month thing makes me a little

uneven moisture from not mixing the bulk maybe, all you can really do is see how it smells and reacts to fruiting conditions

I only see healthy myc do that when my bulk sub is way to wet, but his recipe in OP sounds pretty standard. didn't think about it just being un even though, good point.

how do you tell if your sub is too wet or too dry (dry probably looks cracked or very thin???)
I will put it into fruiting tomorrow and hope that i don't come home to a green mess in a week. fingers crossed that I come home to some nice ripe fruits ready to be picked.

Puddles of water is too wet. You want it to glisten after misting.

This is a monotub, not planning on misting, at least during flush #1

Puddle of water on the substrate is still unacceptable.

Agreed. Guess I was looking for the less obvious signs of too wet.

Still taped. That's a pic of what I think is aerial mycelium. It's also an example of how fluffy this shit is

It looks okay to me. Sometimes cultures are just slow. I would give it 4-5 more days and then fruit it.
Like cronicr said, get something else started and keep an eye on it.

So I just found this guy this morning. Is this a good or bad sign as the sub is still not 100% and not in fruiting?

Just want to be sure, I know there isn't a definite answer, but what is a good estimate in days it takes to go from fruiting to harvest? Like I said, I am going to be gone a week. I only see a few pins in the tub at this time. I should be good, right?
