Looks good, you should be seeing pins very soon, but maybe that white blotch that is brighter than the surrounding tub could be a bacterial contam? 
The last tub I had that contaminated with trich started out like that, there was a bright fuzzy white ball on the surface. I thought it was okay but in three days it spread and turned green. How long did you spawn it for and what was the ratio?

I'm not sure, but I think it was 4 days. Not sure about the ratio either, 50/50 probably.
Bacterial contam is very likely, yes. I'll see in a couple of days.

I see some knotting on the surface, that's a good sign. Fan it out a few times a day and wait. The pins are on their way!!

Yeah looks like its knotting up, should see some pins in a few days. Still riding on the wild bacteria side eh x? Its okay, I do the same thing sometimes too. Check this out, first flush from really bacterial spawn. Well not like what you roll with but still bacterial. Took me 4 flushes to get the yield that I usually get in one

It seems to be pinning better now. Can I use normal 2700K warmlight lamps for this?
I usually use daylight but had to move it away from that.
Nevermind, I found the answer.

Yes but sometimes when you have too moist sub they stall and don't grow that much.

If it's too moist up the fae. You got lots of room to play with if it's wet. Too dry and you gotta mist. There's lots you can do. In fact too moist sounds great because you can never have enough fae.
Anyways those guys don't look all that stalled and small to me. When you get a big pinset they're rarely big anyways.

Well, I don't mind the mushrooms. What I was referring to is how small they are.
I mean, super tiny little fruits is what they are. Probably because of the moist sub, that is too moist.
It will be pure hell harvesting this shit

Ahh I thought you were being sarcastic. Ive had a strain produce small fruits before and it did really well but tiny little buggers. They were super potent though and looked nice fully matured. Just small and short.
Are all your tubs that same strain, type and or from the same culture? They all have the same appearance. I dont think its the substrate just the way those fruits are. But you have a TON of em !

Nah, they are super tiny. But yeah, I have been using the same MS master for all my grows lately. Kind of got in love with this strain, it always produces great pin sets even though it is MS and the fruits are insanely potent as far as I can tell. I do wish they would be larger though, would be easier to harvest and shit. Later flushes usually solves the miniature issue but still. The caps are so tiny this time that even a canopy is impossible even with pins all over the place. Kind of sucks 
At least I got some fruits, I guess. Others seem to have issues with even getting that

Well it doesn't look like they're mature yet either. If you want a canopy be sure you're giving them plenty of light or you get smaller caps.

Try using proper sterile tek. Even if a substrate does not visibly contam, the contams are still there pulling down your BE. For 5 myco quarts spawn, even with ms, you would want a first flush yield of at least 4 oz. That is the minimum, with proper conditions it should be more like 6 -7. Maybe work on fruiting conditions and get some agar work done as well. Then you will easily see double your current yields.

Yeah, one should never work with anything else than clean spawn and make sure to provide proper conditions in the FC!
OR your grow will be shit like mine, thank you very much
