As in 'better chances for success due to more reliable advice being given due to better pics' but doesn't really bother ME at all even if I occasionally sound like an irritable pic nazi out of breath

I meant dude frazzled on day 11... just busting balls... I agree, better pics are more helpful than user explanation... too much of description is relative and open to interpretation: lay my eyes on it and see something theyd not think to even mention

One thing that I think is lame is when a concerned grower has a genuine question and needs someone to point him in the right directions and then he gets 3 pointless answers from 3 growers that all basically say the same pointless thing like: "definitely looks like mold to me, but then again could also be that everything is perfect and you'll get lots of mushrooms soon." meaning "I have no clue what I'm talking about, please stand by for a formed opinion Instead of me just speculating wildly"

I totally get where you are coming from with clearer photos . I just want to say that I don’t know anything and I’m not sure of timelines , as I mentioned before this is my first grow so I am excited and nervous. I will not pretend like I know anything and just searching for knowledge that you guys have accumulated overs years and I’m very respectful of that . HERE ARE MORE PHOTOS!

The second pic from the top is interesting. Can you check if these are pins? You have eyes upclose

Just looked . It’s so hard to tell. I got in close and kinda couldn’t find where that photo was . It does look like a piñata from that angle but not sure ... that grain used is white millet and I noticed that the tops of the millet would get a little darker color ( maybe dude to oxidation ? )

Everything is looking good. Really drying out is what tends to slows spores down. Once hydrated they come back quick. You're beyond that point though, so you have nothing to worry about in that regard.

Everything in your post is looking awful. Really offering nonsensical advice is what tends to slow the process down. Once experience is gained usefulness of advice tends to come back quick. You're beyond that point tho, so you have nothing to worry about in that regard.

Yep those are pins circled in that picture.
They grow so fast I’m sure it’s obvious by now in person.

Some updated photos as of a couple minutes ago . Do people enjoy progress photos of the grow or does this becoming annoying coming from the same person ? I thought it would be cool to post photos in her throughout this grow ....

I enjoy the pictures... Keep them coming. It's nice to see success. I'm sure most others enjoy them too.

Noice 
Maybe it’s because I started with agar, but I just finished up my 3rd cube grow and 11 days from spawning is the longest I had to wait for pins. And that’s at a 1:4, probably closer to 1:5, spawn:bulk ratio. Good to know there’s no reason to worry if my next one takes longer.
Congratulations! You’ll have more than you can eat in a few days.

Thanks so much ! I’m struggling maintaining the right temperature right now . I’m at 67.3 degrees in the room where the monotub is and that’s the warmest room I can get it in at the moment .

Dayum where abouts you located? If that’s the hottest you can get it then work with what ya got. Space heater not an option? That temp is probably What slowed things down for ya.

67 is great, they'll appreciate it between 65-72... much lower they slow down, much higher and bacteria becomes more likely... if they're extremely slow at this temp, you might be bacterial already... watch moisture content on grain prep, thus is typically where the problem starts, and my suggestion for 1st adjustments... temp is fine
