Thoughts on this tub?
I've noticed what appears to be knotting in some areas, while other areas are a bit "fuzzy".
Do I need to up FAE and reduce misting/humidity?

I'd open it up a little personally... is it grey, or just the lighting? Allow evaporation to occur between mistings to stimulate pinning and avoid over-saturating the substrate... I typically only mist once (if at all) before first flush harvest. Surface moisture doesn't develop until a day or two after full colonization IME, and once pinset develops, the surface will maintain it's own microclimate... all about the balance

Thanks! I think it is just the lighting as opposed to grey. Lemme check.

No grey. Just what looks like a bit of slimy water that pooled in a corner. No color change, and its not like snot.

I'd soak it up with a paper towel all the same

Done! Now it's looking good, I think there was just too much moisture going on.
During colonization, it doesn't need tons of humidity, right? Just enough to keep it happy?

With field capacity bulk mix (many of us use coir only) you shouldn't mist at all prior to full colonization, and likely may not need to mist at all before first flush harvest

Oh, dope! That's exactly what I'm doing... coir only, unmodified tub. So far, everything has worked out well. No contams. The old skills are coming back.
Is it normal to see some knotting before 100% colonization?

If you look at the picture I posted, are those little dots knots... or just mycellium growing?

Nevermind, not primordia. I checked a pictorial FAQ and i think it looks just fine.

Pic looks a bit wet, could be a bit bacterial, but nothing to suggest (to me, IMO) that it's substantial... you'll likely get fruit with proper conditions

What are the proper fruiting conditions for this TEK? Seems like set & forget with minor misting, if any.
Lid's cracked, and will wait for it to go 100%.
Anything else?

Just leave the lid flipped... depending on the tub you're using (how the lid fits, how tall it is etc)may have to rotate it slightly to create small gaps in diagonal corners for more FAE... but likely will fruit without having to fiddle with it

These tubs are 1 day after flipping lids for fae.. the tub in the first pic looks quite dry again.. opinions? Its possible being a couple feet from the vent is drying it out too much.
The second pictured tub has some surface condensation and less ddey
