Colonized and pinning monotub in 2 days? (with pics)

Hey Guys,
So I have a monotub that I spawned to bulk using rye berries into coco coir/vermiculite. Now about 48 hours later I am seeing quite a bit of pinning in numerous spots in the coir/vermicultite. I sprinkled a fine layer of coco coir/vermiculite on the top of spawn to act like a casing. I can't tell how much coco coir is colonized under the casing layer. Is it possible for the coco coir to be fully colonized? What mistake did I make?
Background: -The rye berries took 3.5 weeks to colonize the quart jars. I believe due to the injection hole in the lid being so small and lack of gas exchange? I had 2 layers of micropore tape over the holes and they got 12/12 ambient light. No signs of contams in jars and they smelled fresh and "mushroomy" when I opened lids. -Monotub has (6) 1.5" holes with micropore tape over holes. The tub has been in 12/12 ambient light since adding 6 quarts of spawn to coir/vermiculite mix. Room temp about 74 degrees.

Definitely fishy. Might be pinning to outrun a contam.
P.S. Pics or die, yo.

What you're seeing as "pins" - upon magnifying one of the images- is just aerial mycelium poking out. 2 days is way too fast.

This is what mine look like after a couple days. It's not pins, just the myc starting to colonize the top layer. Looks healthy, though, from my experience you should have real pins in about 10 more days.

Thanks for the help guys! So is this aerial mycelium ok? Am I ok to keep up the conditions I have i.e. 12/12 ambient light, micropore tape over holes?

That's what I would do. Just take a peek at your surface conditions once a day and mist if you need to, which you probably won't.
