Confused by partially colonized surface but getting pins
    #26410954 - 01/01/20 01:27 PM (4 years, 28 days ago)



Spawned from uncle Ben to coir 10 days ago in shoebox. Confused what I did wrong since the surface isn’t colonized properly but the pins have started. I’m leaving the box lid on top but it has a small gap for FAE. Temp is around 71-72 every day.
Pic is hard to see but I have counted 8 pins this morning.
What did I do wrong?

Thank you and happy new year

Edited: Higher definition picture (a bit)

Shit will rush to fruit if it's bacterial enough. I'd say that's probably your problem.good thing is you can snag a clone and a few prints and try a def tek. .

Well ive read early pinning is usually due to contamination, maybe go ahead n throw another better pic up and someone with better eyes n experience can give you advice.

Likely itll be make sure agar and spawn are clean.

Hope ya still get at least a few fruits to clone n print!

The top layer can just act like a casing layer or as said it could be bacterial spawn


--------------------

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn

I'm tired do me a favor

What’s that spot in the upper middle part?? Looks blue/green.

I had this happen recently when I tried a shoebox with only a pint of spawn instead of a quart. Instead of a normal flush it just put out a few mushrooms at a time. I figured it was bacterial but nothing has shown up yet a couple weeks after the first one popped up.

Good luck.

When you say the top can act as a casing layer does that mean I shouldn't expect the surface to look fully colonized?

As in the pins will just poke through over time and turn into fruit?

Yeah with a top layer of coir usually you just see a bunch of knots

Oh good eye, turns out its a piece of plastic that came with the coir I bought. Thought I picked out all of them but this once stuck around.

Its true now that I think of it maybe my ratios were just a little low.
