Second flush and only 5 pins?

Hey shroomery. So my second flush is on it's way and on my 3 cup mini mono only has 5 pins. Is this a problem? I don't see any hyphal knots. I had a great first flush giving 12 grams dried. Is this second flush just gonna flunk? Any advice shroomerites?

How long ago did you harvest and dunk the substrate? Second flush fruits can take up to a week to arrive.
As cron points out, you want to leave as many pins that have formed at the time of the first flush but never matured. Those pins are where a lot of second flush fruits arrive out of. Other second flush fruits just pop out of no where, unannounced, and are just pinheads that are there all of a sudden.
Ime, second flush fruits are usually beautiful, and have the potential to be larger than first flush fruits. I have seen second flush fruits come out larger and heartier than first flush fruits on more than several occasions.

Well 1 more pin popped up. One of the pins hasn't grown. The other fruits are very thick. Only 4 fruits. Those fruits are about 3/4 inches thick. How would I dunk a cake without hurting the pins?

I know this post is super old, but I wanted to say something just in case someone is looking through old posts for information like I was just doing.
My second flush took nearly 3 weeks before it started growing anything significant. One pin showed up after 2 weeks but it took another week for the others to come around. My advice would be to be patient and observant. I don't know what factors are involved in the time it takes for a second flush to grow, but what's the harm in waiting it out? You've already done all the hard work. Might as well see what happens.

Sorry x.x was trying to gather some info on second flushes and most of the posts were super old... but I didn't want to start a new one because I'm shy. Still getting a feel for these forums.

9/10 times if you’re new and have a question find the “quick question quick answers thread”. Perfect place to ask things!

Of course you can post where ever you like pretty much, but older posts tend more to contain outdated practices, so it's discouraged. Nothing wrong with being shy of course but please do also bear in mind that your comments and questions can help others. You might feel that a question is silly but everyone here is learning and to some extent hopefully, helping others to learn. So your 'silly' question may well be just what someone else wants to know that can make a significant difference to their grows. As importantly as anything else, welcome to the Shroomery and it's good to have you with us.

I see, thank you for that information. I wasn't sure why commenting on odd posts was frowned upon but that makes sense.
I didn't have a clear question, I just wanted to share my experience. But yeah, next time I'll just start a new thread. I've just seen people get shamed on here for asking questions or posting about things that have already been talked about elsewhere. I didn't want to be that person... so I did a keyword search and found this super old thread and that's how we ended up here.
Anyway, thanks again.
