MONOTUB NOT PINNING! STALLED? NOOB NEEDS HELP!!

I put the tub into fruiting conditions 5 days ago and i am not noticing anything. I thought i would have seen pinning by now. I have noticed this tiny white specks pop up a couple days ago on the substrate. i spawned 6qts of B+ with coir/verm and let it colonize for 10 days in the tub before introducing fruiting conditions. Im using 5000k fluorescent bulbs on a 12/12 cycle. RH is approx 95%. Temps in the tub around 74 degrees. Fanning 3x a day. Any advice. Also I sure hope white specks aren't a contam :'(

Dude.
I see knots all over the place (the tiny white flekcs). That's where the mushrooms come out of.
Don't fan your monotub, adjust your polyfill instead.

^ what he said. I wouldn't worry at five days.
You used a black liner yea? How do you know the sides or bottom were fully colonized when you fruited it?
I have had tubs where the top colonizes faster and leaves a patch or two that needs to colonize up on the bottom, and it refused to start knotting up u ntill it did.
I use clear liners now for that reason 
That aside, that'll put up pins any day man

Don't fan a monotub, adjust the polyfill instead. Fanning is for Shotgun Fruiting Chambers.
Don't open your tub during colonization at all, mycelium puts off CO2 and High CO2 levels are needed for colonization. During fruiting you can open it every day with no real negative impact though I don't know why you would.
Leaving the lid off, however, will have a negative impact.

Hmmm....I was just reading in another thread how polyfill is not important. Guy must have been on drugs. Lol

you didnt figure he was the 1 who was wrong and the other 6-7 people arguing him were right? 
its possible you may have to mist your tub some times as you try to dial it in properly. but no need to do a mist and fan schedule like the sgfc!

Yeah...I think he just likes to argue and be right. I follow teks and advice from guys like you, spitball, frank, rr, etc....guys here to help....not from trollers like Bill seems to be sometimes.
