When the surface is 100% colonized, it'll take up to a week to see the first pins, then they'll grow a lot faster from that point. I would have just misted the tub heavily if the surface looked dry. Dunking the tub wasn't necessary, you usually do that after the first or second flush.

Anyway, there is still a good chance that it'll fruit. I would just keep an eye out for contaminates and tighten the polyfill in the bottom holes and keep the top holes looser. Also, fanning the tub occasionally will increase fresh air exchange, which is a good pinning trigger. Good luck!

Could you possibly upload a pic for us so we can better understand what's going on?

It sounds like you're ok though if you're not contam-ridden. I would mist a lot more often to try and hydrate it. Only mist when the sub isn't glistening with moisture, and fan briefly after each mist to help disperse the water in the air.

If it's been in fruiting for 15 days and no pins, I don't think the soak did you any harm, rather the opposite. My vote is: be patient. It sounds like you've got things under control.

Yeah you used a lot more grain than necessary, what was your ratio of sub to spawn?

Why is the grain on top not mixed in? That is going to be a real problem.

Grain on top is a prob plus those holes are way too high to provide the passive fae you will need.

I had to leave my monobuckets for a 5 days during a heat wave.  High 80s and the casing was bone dry.  Sprayed the hell out of them for a few days and viola.  Great flushes were produced.

Sub to spawn rate I'm not sure. I used 2 bags from Midwest grow kits. I clearly must have added to much vermiculite. I just hope it's salvageable. My first attempt at bulk. I just find myself so damn confused with all the teks. I have like 15 pounds of organic rye and a 10 lbs bag of wbs. Hoping to find something other than cakes I can get to work. I have a background in a greener field. Lol so I'm extremely green behind the ears.

The holes are fine. An inch above the sub is fine. The grain is not.

The grain was all mixed and covered until the dunking and stuff today . and by covered I mean all white. The holes are about an inch away. Idk what I should do to revive it.

Well from the sounds of it ya way overshot your spawn ratio. Drying it out probably really hurt it. Really wish I could have seen what it looked like before you dunked. It might push out a flush, it might contam. I would say its a coin flip. Sorry.

Okay that Is way too much grain on the top. Looks like you made a layer of it. Will probably push out a flush and contam. Just leave it alone and pray for a flush is all I can really suggest.

No man. If you are going to layer grain it must be covered with a layer of sub. Other wise it dries out. Cubes also do not really like to pin from grain.  Its a poor surface texture, poor microclimate, too much nutrition.

So putting my coco and vermiculite under there top of grain was bad? I see tons of people talking about not casing on here. I'm in no way trying to be an ass I'm just honestly confused as can be. I thought I did everything right. Never read that grain was to nutritious. It seems to work for everyone else.  Having a hard time not feeling discouraged. Been putting so much time into this. So much reading. Fml at least the my pf tek  cakes are working.
