First Pins...How do they look?

Hey Guys,
Here is the monotub today at 13 days

And there are some pins forming around the sides mostly.


Currently the GE holes have loose poly and the FAE holes have a single layer if Micropore tape on them. It looks pretty hydrated with beads of water on most of the surface.
How do they look or is it too early to tell?

Thanks! Was worried when only saw a few around the sides. At close inspection seeing what look like hyphal knots in many places so hopefully that’s what they are. 🤞
Anything special that needs to be done or just leave it as is? With the lid on, loose poly in GE holes, single layer of Micropore tape around FAE, 12/12 light and surface about 75% beaded with water.

I'd try increasing the air exchange abit and if you have a Hydrometer check the humidity inside. I'm not sure what you mean by GE holes vs FAE holes, they are the same thing gas and air goes in and out of every hole :P
Hard to tell but I think you should add more holes, the mycelium growing upwards(ariel) is a sign that it wants more air. And allowing more air won't do any harm as long as you keep surface conditions in check.
Do you mean only 75% of the surface is beaded with water? Cover the entire surface https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23999053 (surface conditions)

Or just leave it alone and dont mess with it. If its not dry and its not wet just leave it. You have holes for FAE, you have misted it enough already because myc looks comfortable reaching up. You'll be pleasantly surprised I'm sure.

But I wonder something, what happened to it in the middle? Beyond the crack, it looks a little weird.

Oh, sorry. I thought the bigger poly stuffed holes were the Gas Exchange holes and the smaller holes all around the mono were called Free Air Exchange holes. Going forward I won’t call them by separate things. Lol. Noob here.
The crack in the middle has been fixed. Put the mono on top of four containers, two on each side, and the crack closed like 95%.
Pins have increased from last picture. Will update pictures tomorrow when they are big enough for the camera to pick up. Well, hopefully anyway! 😂
Haven’t misted or fanned at all, not once. Today the surface is basically completely covered with water beads. And the mono has condensation all over.

Nice first grow man
Is there mold showing in the last pic? Like a little to the left of dead center.

Thanks!!!
It’s like a blue spot. Definitely bluish and not green. Any thoughts?

Could be benign but it looks Highly Suspect - Lydia. There’s another one up on the top left. Just be aware of them and if they look to be mold refrain from misting so you’re not blasting mold spores into your face like I’ve done before 😎

Now

And this does look like it’s getting moldy. Anything I can do?

Also is this normal? Had it on two. One veil broke so I took it out.

That looks like trych. Nope, just try and make it more clean the next batch. Also, you might want to throw that outside, as soon as it starts getting green

Are the existing mushrooms okay to harvest though?

If there is no visible mold on the fruits they are likely fine to eat. Imagine they are fresh produce at the grocery store, do they look edible or would you put them back?

Yeah they look edible. Should I let the ones that are still going sit or pick them now?
Also, should I pour salt on the spot? Is that a real thing?
