What am I doing wrong?
    #21892424 - 07/03/15 12:24 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Hi guys,
I'm attempting my first ever grow and I need some advice.
I'm growing B+ on BRF cakes in a shotgun terrarium.

I inoculated 9 jars and all 9 made it through full colonization without contamination.
The mycelium growth was strong and steady but kind of slow. They took between 35 and 45 days to fully colonize.
After full colonization I gave them another week for consolidation.
Then I dunked them for 16-18 hours and rolled them in vermiculite.

Now they are in a shotgun terrarium with 4 inches of wet perlite. The terrarium is well build, with holes on all 6 sides.
I mist and fan 3-4 times a day and the humidity is about 92% most of the time. They get the right amount of natural light and there is no sign of fuzzy mycelium growth so I guess I'm giving the cakes the right amount of fresh air.
The only thing I don't like is that in the last 5 days the temperatures where I live are crazy, like 95°F all day long and about 85 at night. Of course inside is a bit fresher but not much.

The 9 cakes have been now in the terrarium for 2 weeks and only 4 of them show some sign of pinning.
The problem is that those pins don't grow. Most of them have been the same size for about 5 days.
What am I doing wrong? I have bad OCD and I did everything like it was supposed to be and I swear to god, I'm gonna lose my fucking mind if all this effort doesn't pay off.

Have some pictures.

The pins look like they aborted. Try misting less often and let the water evap from previous mist to induce pinning. They could just be too wet

Thanks for taking the time to answer. I will give up misting for the next 24-36 hours and let's hope for the best.
