Doing good:mushroom2:

Based on the side pins, I’d restrict the air flow a bit more. Might help.

restrict airflow? I thought FAE was good? this is a shoebox, and I'm just leaving the top off (I was dubtubing)

FAE is great. But, getting a good pinset is a balancing act - you want to keep humidity high, while maximizing FAE, even though the two counteract.

A lot of side pinning usually means the conditions (this balance of humidity and FAE) are better on the sides. That usually means the surface isn’t humid enough. Therefore, side pins can be avoided by restricting FAE, which increases humidity.

I gotta disagree with Feldman. Side pinning because of the lack of a liner. I would not "dial" anything in at this stage. Looks good, why mess with it.

Next time you can use a liner. Nothing wrong with side pins in my opinion.
Edit: I'm gonna double down and say if anything increase FAE they look slightly fuzzy.

the shoebox just sits uncovered now, not much more FAE unless I point an electric fan at it

Carefully using a fan directly at the tub....it'll dry it out, but you're doing good! You got fruits congratulations!!

I think the word you're looking for is velum.

The spots on the cap can be referred to as "remnants of the universal veil".

The universal veil is the velum.

I would never point a fan directly at one. When I use a fan I always do it indirectly, definitely not pointing at a grow directly

Yeah more air is better so long as you can maintain surface conditions.

Dub tub or shoeboxes with the lid resting on top should be fine for both, I’d lean towards less air and more moisture until you learn to control conditions more. I had a bunch of early grows get too dry and it really screws things up.

I'm noticing the top of my tub has been getting dryer and that I have to mist more often. is it because the shrooms are growing really fast now, or is it because of the environment it's in?

Couldn’t tell you without being there, probably both but more environmental. Usually as the pins grow and suck up water and nutrients the whole sub shrinks.

I have had some where the surface seemed to suck up water constantly but usually once pins come in they seem to help keep conditions better. There’ll always be little beads of water on the myc near the clusters.
