Pinning?

hey guys, it's been 7 days since I introduced this tub to fruiting conditions and I'm starting to see knots like this in the corners of the casing, should I start fanning manually instead of using the dub tub tek? I mist about once a day because I have a small fan about 10ft from the tubs pointing at it for fae. I just want to make sure I didn't fuck anything up. From the stage of growth that I've desribed, about how long until I should be worried about seeing pins? The tub was introduced to fruiting cond 6 days into spawn run, the sub looked like this

For some reason i cannot expand both of these pictures to get a better look. Do you have a mono tub setup?

6 days for a colonization run is very fast. Even if the surface of the substrate looked like that on day 6, you should give it another 3-4 days to be sure the substrate is fully colonized.

i have a dub tub setup meaning two 6 qt tubs with polyfill on 4 sides of each tub for fae, i only introduced it to fruiting conditions because i saw small pools of water on the surface of the substrate and it appeared to be all white, anywho, do you think ive fucked myself and should start new jars, by that i mean does the fact that i cased the sub and introduced it to fruiting conditions after 6 days mean it wont pin?

What day did you apply the casing layer? On day 6? After i see 100% colonization of the substrate I case with a 1/2" of 50/50+ casing mix. Then i wait another 4-7days. It usually takes that long for the mycelium to begin to encroach my casing layer.

Start new jars, but keep this going until you see mold or bacteria set in.

It may pin, just wont be an even pinset if many at all.

i just followed the the dub tub and zombie tub tek. i guess ill just wait and see if the pin at all, if they don't pin within the next couple of days ill just toss em because i don't want to wait for them to get moldy to where i have to take extra precautions when disposing of the sub.

is it too late to throw the foil back on and let the myc colonize the casing a bit more?

curently i have been folowing this tek https://www.shroomology.org/topic/14-zombie-tubs/
do you think i should start misting and fanning instead of having polyfill and a fan for FAE, this is my first grow ever and im anxious that ive messed up my grow. after 6 days i cased the sub and introduced it to fruiting conditions because the top of the substrate looked fully colonized (couldnt see any of the coir color showing through). as you can see from one of my pictures the mycellium is knotting in the corners of the tub showing throw the casing in some parts. im just nervous and would like advise as to how i should proceed.

I would not deter from the tek at all, follow it to a "T".

The substrate surface looks good but I'm just wondering where the holes stuffed with poly for FAE are.

It's not pictured in the shot provided, it looks just like the zombie tub in the link I posted earlier, on average how long from the stage of growth I described should I see pins?

why waste your time on offsite teks when you have the entire shroomery at your disposal?

oh god I hope not!
envelope tyvek for grains, mp tape, glovebox (which they even say isnt needed), wipe needle with ISO only, shoot a full cc, bucket tek'ing coffee and then it hurt my brain so bad I had to stop reading it.
I swear it happens every time I press a link from that site!

lol i followed the perfect grainspawn thing on youtube and looked at RR's posts. the only thing i took from that site was the size of the tubs used, the zombie tub or dub tub style of FC is also on shroomery, the only reason i went on that site was because they had the 50/50 casing ratios needed for those size tubs. the only thing i think i bungled was not inucubating the casing layer for 2-3 days, i just put it on top of the fully colonized sub and introduced to fruiting conditions. including today it has been 8 days and no pins so yea im starting to get a little worried
