5 days in the fruiting chamber

I've had these pf cakes in the fruiting chamber for 5 days now with no signs of pinning. The 1/4 in holes are drilled on all four side and I have an aquarium pump to help with more FAE but is it enough? I've kept my chamber between 70-87 degrees with a constant 99 percent humidity. I also fan and mist them twice a day; Once in the morning and once in the evening. 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. Any advise or helpful input? Btw, I do not have any holes in the lid, do I need to do that?


I also used the dunk(24hours) and roll method.

all four sides? there are 6 sides. i questioned the 6 side thing myself but applarently the airflow from the bottom is extremely advantagious. anyway i'm no expert but i'm pretty sure everything is normal here. pinning can take longer than 5 days.

The temperature range seems pretty broad; above 80 and you're in incubation range. 87 is just too dang hot, period. Shoot for a consistent temp on the low end of that range (70-75) to induce pinning and fruiting, give it a few days of that temp consistently, and see if that helps. Everything I've read has suggested a 10 to 15 degree Fahrenheit drop for the fruiting stage compared to colonization.

Sides in the regards of being on the side of the retangular tube. I would consider the top, a lid but that's just my logic i suppose. Thank you for your input though. I'm just ready to see the smallest little pin or some type of action happening

Tempature is hard for me to maintain because I world 65 hours a week. I try my hardest to keep the temp constant, but some days when I get home, the temp is a little high. I was just giving into in the highest it's ever been as well as the lowest it's ever been

I gotta say, I'm really digging the symmetry of that tub! It looks all purty and organized.

You need holes on the lid and the bottom of the tub too. Be patient pinning can take awhile longer than 5 days.

Holes on all 6 sides.
Ditch the aquarium pump. It may fuck the whole thing up. SGFC must be built to the correct specifications.
Also ditch the hydrometer. Its doing nothing but confusing you. You don't want constant 99% humidity. That is in fact bad.

So y'all don't think I'll have success if I keep my current setup?

Depends how you define success. Might get a few fruits. But just having a good understanding can easily double your yield from cakes. If success to you is 1-2g dry off each cake and you don't have any want to do better then I suppose you've no obligation to make any changes.

Definitely holes on all 6 sides, top and bottom too!
And dont forget some objects to prop up your tub, on all 4 sides, at least 4 inches off the table u have there.
And ditch the air pump/air stone inside the tub. Its outdated technology. Just wet the perlite well, and the design of the SGFC would work its magic.

Don't be surprised if it takes two weeks to get pins. I've done a hundred or so PF tek cales over four different grows and never saw pins faster than 9 days in a fruiting chamber, with the exception of those times the cakes pinned invitro during consolidation.
