Day 2 of first pins, what y'all think.

This is my first time growing. As of yesterday morning when I woke up, I started to see some pinning. This is day two and I think it looks okay. What do you guys think? Is that a lot or is that only a little bit that's inside of that tub? I did not take the lid off and take a picture, I just opened up one of the top holes. So there are probably more spots that you cannot see that have pins as well

I have the four bottom holes tightly stuffed with polyfill and the top two holes are really loose

What do your rings look like around your bottom holes? Those can usually tell a pretty good story; they should be about a half inch thick all the way around the holes on the bottom. Any bigger and you should try tightening up the polyfil, any smaller and you may want to loosen things up a little bit at the top.
Looking good, though, nice pinset!

As you can see, I did not put a liner in any of my tubs. I don't care about the cleanup and I want as many pins as I can get. I don't care if they are on the sides because I bought 20 brand new scalpel and I will make sure I get everything I can. I might even have bottom pins and if so, that would be a lot of mushies!! Haha.

I know a lot of people use liners and don't have to worry about bottom pins, but as I said, I did not use one. What is going to be the easiest way to pick the bottom pins because as you see, I'm using black mono tubs LOL. So I cannot see if I have any or not regardless, but I assume I would. I don't want to break my substrate when I do my first harvest, so what would be the best way?

If your substrate colonized fully, you can usually tip the tub over after harvesting the surface and let it fall out while you support it with your other hand. They're pretty sturdy, to the point where some folks have used mycelium bricks as building materials in experiments and art installations. Just pull your sub out as one big brick.

I've never heard of flipping over substrate? Never done it either.
Im not sure how that would work or if it would work right. Maybe you should do some more research before you do that.
fuck, 35 grams wet is about 3 dry. It's nothing compared to the monsters you'll see on here.
thanks tho, but trial and error. That tub was actually a MS of b plus. If you want some gnarly tubs like that on a consistent level you'll have to get into agar and isolation. It takes allot of time and hard work.

I have been looking at a lot of different things to do. Trial by error. I have found that even though I'm doing all of my tubs the same way, some of them are colonizing different and slower and some of them are going to produce at a different rate and amount

It's hard to stop looking at them every four or five hours, but every time I do go in there and look, they are getting bigger. Lol

Definitely know that feeling. I just moved into a new place, so all I have going right now is a dozen of jars. It's hard to resist the urge to check on them ten times a day.

thank you. I'm just hoping that the rest of the tubs will eventually look like that as well. They get bigger every time I look at them. LOL

I have some growing underneath the polyfill under each hole. I'm hoping that does not affect their growth
