They weren't bad off judging by the pinset... are you tamping the edges when you spawn? excess moisture will also cause excess shrinking as it dries up... may be your whole issue, not necessarily your maintenance... spawn ratios of 1:1-1:4 are common: looks good to me

psuedomonas will cause visible damage to the mushroom tissue. a brownish stripe is just a brownish stripe, right?

I have 6 PE6 prints to send for this 6/6/6 giveaway. Just pm me with your addy and I'll send them out as soon as all 6 have been claimed.
This is, of course, only for microscopy purposes.

3rd tub of PE6 harvested today. Another monster! 86 grams with the little dudes attached.

Thanks to everyone in this and other threads. Seriously, without this community I wouldn’t be having this much fun or success!

Should I just indirectly mist?

Anytime I’ve over-misted my shoeboxes and let them dry, they ended up matting on me. Sometimes a surface can just be lost, and no more mushrooms grow from it. Indirectly mist, but don’t expect much, IME.
Looks like you got some fruits growing still, so not all is lost.

Dry
 Mist lightly, allowing evaporation to occur between mistings to stimulate pinning and avoid over-saturating the substrate

Thanks for the feedback. How often should I be misting do you think? Sorry for all the questions this is my first time.

When the surface is nearly dry... light mist, evaporation, light mist... properly dialed in feild capacity won't need misted much, if at all, prior to first flush harvest... depends on your climate and the amount of FAE your box allows... no magic number of hours or days unfortunately; it'd be posted everywhere! Just gotta learn proper surface conditions, how to read them, how to respond and to what degree... Learning is fun!

So the pin set is still coming in strong on my AA+ SB, but the sides and bottom are crazy.

 
Need to find a way to suspend it in a FC and hit it with lights from all sides, lol. Grow a mushroom sphere.

Check these out. My Roatan Honduras clone is growing some funny caps. Look like golf hats or fuzzy nipples.
