What does this look like to you guys? I get that sometimes cakes get fluffy and it's just myc, but these have been in here well over a week and are producing these instead of pins...

I had this happen to my cakes recently. It may be nothing to worry about and begin to pin as normal. But if the balls turn grey or the cake turns yellow, I'd say remove those specific cakes. Be patient buddy!

I am using a standard SGFC. I added more perlite this time though because last time my issue was with low humidity. Perhaps that's blocking some of the airflow?

Make sure the terrarium is elevated up above the space its sitting on. (You probably already know this. Mason Jar Rings are suitable)
And one thing I like to do to give good Fresh air exchange, I take the lid off for periods of time; (Like in the morning when I make breakfast, When I get home) then Spray well and coat every surface in the terrarium with a decent moistened layer. Then put the lid back on and pull the corner up and fill the air in the FC with mists too.

Low and behold some of the cakes are showing pinning on the very top! But they aren't coming from the fluff balls as I think someone said they should...

Any notable cause for concern? Also the last brf cakes I did pinned VERY unevenly, none of any of them having a real "flush" and instead just a sporadic, but slow trickle of one or two shrooms at a time. How could I avoid that?

Better Fae, better Genetics, proper water and care, properly set up sgfc, practice. And the Syringes could be bacterial from the start. Did you make the cake mix or buy it. Pre-made and Jarred?

I made the cake mix. And last time it was MS but this time I isolated a healthy looking strain on agar first but since I'm kinda a noob it might not be so healthy haha

Wow that is some dense pinning! Someone please point me in that direction :0 ! I know most of the fault is probably mine since I'm a beginner, but if I practiced enough and got good genetics, even that would probably make things so much easier

Possibly. The fluff balls are a little larger now but everything still smells fresh and it's pinning rather healthily. Hopefully it's even this time. Probably just needs more FAE (and probably more light since the sgfc has a black lid so only the little holes are letting light from the lamp through ... )
