First Mono. Does this look right? Too many Pins or Pinporn? Comments/Suggestions appreciated

First time doing a monotub. CVG sub with a MS LC to WBS.
I know the fluffy white is Myc since it bruised blue after we used a paper towel to remove some standing water pools. I've read countless posts and seen more grows from guys on here than I can process. I can't remember seeing anything like this though.
Is the fluffy white normal, or is there too much moisture, or maybe not enough FAE.
Why are the mushys so short/fat with very little stem. Is that part of the MS crapshoot, or what can I adjust to remedy that. I've read it could be low moisture, or low temps. But also read that it's not a problem, just more an aesthetic thing than anything else. I'll leave well enough alone if it's not a real problem.
Also, all the little guys, am I correct in calling them pins, or primordia? Why are there so many of them? Literally every possible inch is covered.
I know the sub could have been smoothed out more, but i can't imagine that would cause this.

Looks like they are fighting for nutrients. Many aborts will be had.
--------------------
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Looks like ksss, which is known to put out short fat asses.
That is an ungodly pinset! Like the above post says, prepare for a ton of aborts. If you can supply them with enough moisture, you may be able to decrease that number slightly. That amount of pins will deplete the moisture content of the sub pretty quick

You're spot on, it is KSSS.
So would I have been better off fruiting sooner? I've read the over pinning posts and most of them say that even with a larger pinset, and smaller fruits, the yields work out almost the same. As long as I keep them watered it's not a problem.
I'll try side watering and making sure I keep them hydrated.

So you mean taking out the top poly for short periods of time? Or removing it all together? Currently it's BARELY stuffed in, a small gust could send it out.

Just make sure to mist heavily 2-3times a day. The poly isnt so much the issue. You just want the tub to be able to breathe. So remove the top hole polys and loosen up the lower ones as well,,, and make it rain!!!
That pinset is nutz!!!
Keep us posted!

Some people have had success injecting their substrates with water via syringe. Maybe something to consider. I've never done it though.

I'll deff keep updating as things progress. So after these heavy mists, I should fan until the water isn't on the caps anymore? My buddy keeps telling me that's how aborts happen. I imagine they grow in nature, and it rains/dew. I can't see how a little water could be so detrimental. I mean, standing water yeah, but drops? As long as it evaporates between mistings it's ok,no? Isn't half the reason for misting,the evaporation?

I've tried the water syringe on some PF cakes before. I think it worked ok, but not as well as dunking. It was mid flush and they got super dry.
BTW, I'm digging your avatar. I thought about using a Sous-Vide cooker before for pasteurizing. Set and forget! Perfectly pasteurized sub, and then you can make perfectly cooked steaks after. Or heck, perfectly cooked seafood at the same time!

Certain types of bacteria will cause those types of pinsets, not saying that's the case here but it's a possibility that your tub is bacterial

Update:
Here's a few new pics. I realize the cracked caps are more than likely from lack of water. So is the blue bruising. I was out of town for a little, had my buddy looking after them. He fanned and neglected to spray. The biggest one was a monster. Dense too, had to split it into about 8 diff pieces to help it dry. It also had a pool of water inside it, like a reservoir.

A convection oven, set to 140F is essentially the most expensive consumer grade food dehydrator available. But thanks for the tip.
We wash the sub off, get everything uniform in size "for more even/efficient dehydrating" let them dry overnight on the paper towels and the door open/light on. Gets about 100-110F in there. Then switch to mesh pizza/calzone trays and run at 140F. The day pre-drying on paper towels helps them to toughen a little, and stick less to the mesh trays for cracker drying.
