 Casing Question...Not pinning in the middle

I have a casing question. The sides of my casing containers, right around the edge are pinning, but nothing is coming up near the center. Is this normal or should I do something to initiate pinning in the middle. The growth i'm getting is good, a few 2-3 in caps, GT strain, but there is a lot of space in the middle that seems wasted.

If it's only growing from the sides your casing is fucked up. Probably too dry or the water content is too low or too high or the pH is WAY off. Did the mycelium colonize the casing?

Yeah it is fully colonized, I did check that, actually I have noticed it is a bit dry in the middle, but not bone dry, however I am starting to think that the water on the sides of the containers may be facilitaing growth on the outside.
What is the best way to re-moisturize a casing without damagint eh mycellium?

Do you have a light really close to it?

No, the light is just a low watt fluro on the ceiling about 5 ft from the terranium. Its plenty bright, the mushrooms seem to be orientating themselves to it.
