It wasn't PE but it does illustrate the unpredictable nature of different genetics.

^^^^ DING
And sometimes it fully colonizes because that's what mycelium does. Almost all of my cased grows (I say "almost", but I might as well just say "all") got the casing fully colonized whether I put them into fruiting conditions immediately or not. So I learned to allow the mycelium to have a head start colonizing most of the casing layer before I initiated fruiting. It reduced the time exposed to open air conditions and made a stronger condition switch closer to the time they'd be ready to pin anyway.
  
Don't worry. The uneven and humidity-pocket filled casing layer is still a great pinning site when fully colonized. If it's really what they need to do, pins can still form from within the casing layer and push thru any mycelium above.
Your casing layer still serves what I've learned is the most important purpose of a casing layer anyway - a low-nutrition fruiting environment exposed to the intended (& only) fruiting direction. PE seems to benefit from that even moreso than most other Cubensis.

I noticed a lot of my pins appeared from within the casing layer pockets exactly how Violet explains here.

I have some pe tubs going right now. One is taking forever to pin, the other put out mostly blobs on the first flush. Neither were cased. I'm starting to think I should've cased..
Well done with your PE.

Mine seem to take forever weather I case or not but casing has given me much more even pin sets. I consolidate before fruiting and I don't get any blobs.

Yea the yield has blinded me from seeing any of the downsides to casing tubs. i'll be harvesting this tub today! i don't see any spores though...i was hoping to get some swabs

Check the biggest caps inside - I was able to makes swabs even though they didn't drop spores...
