Casing do I need to see pins pinning before putting into a fc?

I followed a 50/50 casing tek in containers that were slightly taller than te tek called for. It's been one week and all of them show growth and mycelium strands are reaching the tops, yet I don't see pins... Are they ready for the fc? Do I take them out of the containers?

Most say wait until the top is colonized then go for it.

Once the casing shows growth through pop it into the FC, that's where the pinning happens.

pinning triggers trigger pinning and ya don't want your casing layer colonized fully

Right I understand what pinning is and my casings don't have it but show about 50% colonization, so out them in fc? If so, should I lower the containers onto the perlite like I'm planting them?

no need to plant them but yes if your at 50% colonization of your casing layer it's time to fruit

So just put the containers in, they're transparent ziplocks, I don't want to cover the sides?

You fruit when your casing is at 30% or immediately afterwards depending on your casing material.
Don't be silly, listen to cronicr.
