Got some updates, My fruiting process is moving along very slowly. Im unsure the reason behind this.
Does anyone know why I have so much fluff as well and how I might go about fixing this on the next go around?
Tray 1
 Only one or two pins have shown in this tray.
Tray 2
 There are a decent amount of pins forming, the growth rate is slow though. There is quite a lot of fluff in both.

Thanks, Im really excited to start getting into the cultivation side of mycology. Interested in learning how to work with agar soon, seems like a nice challenge. Might try a different substrate next time and go full mono tub instead of the trays.

Nice dude! I started doing some agar work about a month ago. I mainly just did it for lower contam risks because I don't have the room to do isolates and what not. It's a ton of fun! I'm definitely gunna clone one of these bad boys from this current grow.
Keep us updated!

Awesome work Duder and Snawzz!
I know the excitement you are going through as I am on the exact same schedule as you two with my first Mono. Just got pins the other day.
I will be watching both of your grows

I think I figured out part of my problem. My room has been rather cold around 68 degrees, Im going to try to raise it to the low to mid 70s and see what happens.
Ive been starting to mist and fan more and it seems to be helping.   
I believe it also has something to do with the thickness of my sub. I didn't realize how thin it was around 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick
Its all trial and error so I will just tweak my set up on the next go around and see what happens.
Might try a Coir substrate and increase the depth, spawn ratio. 
I have been noticing quite a few new pins in Tray 2 as well as pins starting to pop finally in Tray 1 so we will see what happens in the new few days.
Ill keep you all updated

Heres some Updated pictures from today.

Tray 1
 There are more pins starting to form.
Tray 2
 Lots of pins forming all over.
Im raising the heat to try to increase the growth rate, as well as fanning and misting more.

Hey everyone I've been noticing VERY slow growth in my mono tub, anyone know of any reasons why this might be happening? 
Tray 1

Tray 2

 The biggest pin in this picture is the first pin that showed up, is it an abort or what?

Thanks man I really appreciate the vote!  
I've been misting quite a bit more recently and have been fanning with the lid a few times a day, I have a vent in my room that pushes in air making a draft so I don't really think I need the fan. The polyfill is also quite loose so I don't think thats the problem.

There are so many fucking knots I feel like it's going to explode any day!!
Not sure what advice you have heard already but here's anyway.
You shouldn't need to fan it. Surface should have beads of moisture all over it while pins are forming. Increase FAE after pinset fills out by opening up poly more, or removing it altogether and misting.
I wanna be around when this thing takes off 
EDIT: surface moisture

Hey everyone, I've been noticing lots of yellowing in the last few days in my substrate. I gave it a heavy spray last night and had a growth spirt because of it. Ive noticed a little fuzzy feet on some of the mushrooms and a couple seem to be aborted as well. Do you guys think its dry sub still or do you think it has gone further into a bacterial problem?

Looks like metabolites which isn't a great sign. Your mycelium is probably fighting off bacteria.

Thats what I was suspecting, kinda had a feeling from the moment I saw all the fluff. 
I will let it grow out but I'm not expecting anything, next go around Ill prepare a verm and coir mix in a bucket for my sub. Ill make it deeper and use a liner, this time the sub ended up only being an inch or two deep. As I say to others,Trial and Error.
Thanks for the help guys.

Are you using agar?

Sadly I have not gathered the materials to start my agar work (a little strapped for cash). I'm going to have to put together some rye berry jars, I have Spore syringes at the moment so I will get those going when I get the chance. I will get all the stuff for agar work soon so I can start having real fun.

Go to an asian market or chinatown and get some agar! Try the telephone brand, or whatever else you can get your hands on. I buy a pack that's enough for 60 plates and it costs me 1$CAD. You can also follow the grocery store agar tek, which refers to agar that is available in most grocery stores.
Then you can use anything from potatoes and corn syrup to dog food. It's way more simple than you think, and it pays off. Look up agar recipes for MEA, PDA, PDYA, dog food agar. I use PDYA, but if you don't have any yeast on you PDA is the easiest. Oh yeah and in case you don't know about pasty plates, that's what you want at this point.
You could clone one of those pins you got there and isolate away from any bacterial growth that appears, if any. From there make blenderless LI, or use a wedge and then G2G your way to some monotubs!
I'm sorry for your loss. Time to try agar! Good luck
