This shoebox has stalled, 3 brf cakes were used. It has looked liked this for about 2 weeks now, any advice on what I can do? How does it look?

How is it getting air and is the surface as dry as it looks to me? Or is that just my eyesight?

It was actually very wet after day 9 and nothing I might have started to mist too much not knowing what to do so today I removed the lid to let the water evaporate, I did a slight mist this time. It is amazonian by the way.

Hey Darth,
Looks good except for being dry. Might just be a slow pinner.
Nothing really to do except give it a good mist and put the lid back on. Leave the lid on. Shoeboxes, if the sub is hydrated correctly, don’t need anything until pins form.
Literally spawn it, put the lid on and check the progress after a week. If it is still colonizing, give it another week and look again. Once it is colonized, check it every other day or so. Just real quick, open the lid, don’t see pins, put the lid back on. Leave it alone and it will grow.
So, mist it pretty good, put the lid on. Check it every other day or so until pins show up.
Good luck!

It actually looks very wet to me... I may be wrong, especially because the picture quality isnt great but i see Water pooling on top left corner as well as a glistening sheen. Its likely the BRF cakes were bacterial, which is quite often the case. Usually doesnt matter, but when you shred it to spawn it can affect your grow (many people get away with doing it). Its likely that if your coir is very over field capacity, that its allowing the bacteria to proliferate even more and causing issues with colonization as it out competes your mycelium.
I would not mist it anymore, and would take a paper towel to lightly absorb any excess moisture you see. It might just be too bacterial at this point and has stalled out, but take some photos of it over a couple days to check for growth

Update: this is a week after, I stopped misting and this is how it looks.... Premature pinning, does this look contaminated, I dee the mycelium a little orage tint color. After I harvest what little yield is to come, is there a chance for a better next flush or is this a gonner?
