I’m more lost than I have ever been here ... 1

Hey everyone ! It’s day 11 on my GT’s and was wondering on a couple things. The spores I used were from a syringe that are about a year and a half old ( they were refrigerated during that time ) . I know that people have had success with syringes that are 4-5 years old even . I was curious if the them being a little older may causing stalling ? I have an unmodified monotub going under GordoTEK. I will attach photos . The tub was colonizing between 78-81 degrees and now has been moved to 70 degrees. I’m surely being impatient but was wondering what you guys thought and maybe when to expect some pinning ? For the FAE I have spacers under the lid and making sure there is always a little bit of condensation on the sides . This tub has been moved into fruiting conditions . I appreciate you all !

I am observing hyphal knots I'd say another four days max till you got a forest to chop down.

That’s 11 days after I took the fully colonized grain spawn and was put into coco/vermiculite substrate .

You'll have pins quite soon..... Unless it goes to shit for some reason.

I usually get pinning around day 20 and don't really even check for pins until after second week because I've never had pinning just 2 weeks after spawn (well maybe once or twice but besides the point) so don't panic if you don't see fruits for another week

For me it's really hard to see what's going on on the surface cause the photo is from far away. I like to take photos like this when I want to show the substrate surface. If you zoom in on the pics you will be able to see how the micro climate looks like. I'm offering this advice for any new grower who wants to increase his/hers chances of getting much more accurate tips and advice gl

Certainly no need to apologize for anything dude, my options are to wildly speculate (which doesn't help you in any way) or to ask you for better pics so I can at least ground my speculations in something  Also there's no need for alcohol after your spawn jars have finished colonizing, stick the phone as close to the substrates as you feel is necessary for a clear pic won't hurt anything unless you drop the phone lol

Don’t worry you won’t contaminate it when it’s this far along.
Average time for pins would probably be around 13 days for me.

I know I know ... I must be patient . It’s my first time so I’m just seeing if everything checks out and what the community thought . I’m hungry for knowledge!

Looks like it should be pinning any day now, you already have hyphal knots going on. Can't tell you exactly how close or how many days, but it's pretty damn close, with as much looking and checking you're doing (I did the same, and still do, I'm still a novice lol) you'll see your first pin soon, you won't miss it!

No need to stress altho it's probably the most critical time when it comes to the surface conditions Boy oh boy I wonder how clear future pics will be with the learned knowledge that extreme closeups are allowed (I'm horrible) Some called hyphal knots before it was even specified exactly how long ago the tub was spawned and with terrible view of surface conditions, hyphal knots are still being called and the pics are a bit clearer this time but knowing that your substrate is just 11 days old I'm kind of reluctant to say you have early pin formation at least until I can see clearly that fruits are forming on the sub which I haven't been able to positively see yet. Of course it still very likely could be knots I'm not denying they're there, kind of looks like it..
