Do you have pics of your surface conditions

Not the best pics, but hopefully you can tell. I tried to maintain a very fine mist over the surface, usually misting my shoeboxes about 2-3 times a day, and 1-2 times a day after the pinsets came in.



If i posted a picture of the pinset in these tubs right now, youd probably think its a first flush pinset. And its the third flush :facepalm3: I still got a somewhat alright yield, its just frustrating that these pins look healthy but for some reason wont grow.

Are the shoeboxes open air or in monos

This tek was written for monos but can be applied to open air. Excessive misting can cause aborts like you have mentioned and matted surface.

They arent in either. I just left the lid snapped on until the fruits got too big, and then dub tubbed to allow more space. They're supposed to get plenty of fae with just the lids snapped on.

Thats the thing tho, i dont think these are aborts. The caps are not black at all and they pretty much look like healthy pins to me. Can they still be aborts even if the caps are still a healthy looking light brown color?

Pics help. Sounds like aborts. You might wanna try putting them in monos. I like shoeboxes in monos more than applying a casing layer and waiting an extra week till harvest.
Heavy pinsets respond well to bottom watering.

Damn sucks to hear this. I'm working on my 3rd flush and I see this on my shoebox right now. . Probably over misting, the pins came in while the 2nd one was still finishing up. I see some different colored pins and I believe the growth stopped on some of them though haha

Heres a picture of the pins during the second flush. The few of them that have the very dark caps are growing, while the very small ones with the lighter caps have done nothing since the first flush, and its the third flush now. And theres a ton of them

Its a fairly dense pinset thats just sitting there doing absolutely nothing :facepalm3:

Could they be aborts even tho they like this? They look healthy to me but im not very experienced.

Yea, these tubs are now on their third flush and have been rehydrated twice now. second flush i dunked them all, and now for this flush i tried bottom watering some tubs, and dunking the others.

There are so many pins its insane, and as you can see in that picture i think they all look healthy. They've just been sitting there since basically the first flush.

Maybe the sub ran out of nutes

Yea i thought maybe it could be a contam, but the spawn looked perfect and there's no bad smells or anything that seems off.

So you don't think it's anything I did wrong? Could it just be the culture I used or something?there's an entire dense pinset still sitting there:facepalm3:

Damn lol. I dunked some of them, and bottom watered the rest. Now I'm just letting them sit with a dub tub and am not messing with them at all. No misting or anything. You think that's a good plan?

So I got a couple tubs that were  slow rolling/ bad pinset... I haven't missed it anything at all yet but these seem like they could use a light misting and that's what I did. Here are some Before & After pics. Please let me know if you think misting was appropriate or not. Trying to finally learn how to read my myc/sub conditions a little better...

Before...

After...
