Oversaturated casing question

Hi all, so I believe I over misted one of my casings and caused it to stall up during the end of pinning. They were about to start growing and then all growth halted or so it seems so far. I decided to manually fan it quite a bit today in hopes that I will get some evaporation going so hopefully they will continue growing.
Will the fruits begin to grow if I let the moisture escape or is it gonna stay the way it is? If I wait too long will contamination set in?

What do you mean you over-misted? I mist at all stages until I see a little water pool then fan and let the monotub evaporate the rest.
Your questions don't make sense. What kind of FC do you have? Wait too long to do what?

sorry i could have elaborated better...
I'm using a greenhouse chamber filled with coir trays cased with 50/50. I have been misting as needed but I believe i mistreated one casing by not allowing evaporation to take place before I misted.
Since all of the other trays are doing fine it leads me to believe that the reason for the one trays halted growth is because of my misting.
There are pins but it got too moist and didn't allow for much evaporating so it stayed like that. I fanned it myself because It needed some help getting the water to go away. My gh usually can do that good on its own but this tray needed some help.
My question is if the pins stop/slow growth, will they continue growing after the environment is on point once again?

And if the mushrooms don't continue growing could contams become a possiblity?

Contams are always possible, your best defense is full colonization.
I don't really understand why your pins stopped growing. How long has it been stalled? Pins can survive a 24 hour dunk so I find it hard to believe that over-misting caused them to stop growing.

Well I'm not really sure why they've slowed up so much. I couldn't tell if they were gonna keep doing there thing or not so I thought I'd atleast ask what everyone thought on here. It's been about 2 days since I've seen growth. It was producing a lot of pins up until I misted oddly
Otherwise my other tray has been doing well. The pinset on the other tray is better even though it hasn't been pushing the growth out yet.

So any idea why the tray would be stalling?.. Is contamination a possible cause?
There hasn't been any further growth sadly

It does to me also but on the other hand it's not much more saturated than the other tub that's doing fine.

Yeah true...I can tell the fruits are waterlogged though already in the 1st tray.

If you look at the third pic, you can also see about 3 or so pins beginning to abort.

Give them lots of FAE and stop misting.

You shouldn't have to mist if fruiting in a greenhouse anyway.

Okay sounds good guys. I'll do my best to keep it rolling. Thanks for the input.
when I keep the constant air going in my tent It seems helpful to mist at times.... I have two new trays on the way so ill have to keep doing better as well!

Would it be a good idea to harvest all of the pins then lightly case? Or should I just not touch it?
