SGFC to Water tub

Hey all,
Placed four BRF cakes rolled in verm in a well-built SGFC 10 days ago. They're from PE LCS. I know that PE can be (not always of course) a little more timely in the pinning department so I'm not yet concerned.
I've also had 2 more of the same cakes in a WT for 5 days. They were a little later to consolidate.
So my questions are, if I don't see anything on the four SGFC cakes soon should I move them to the WT? Would this be safe? If so, how long should I wait? I know the pinning can take a while for PE and I can be patient about it. And yeah, I know PE can be tricky on BRF...noob mistake.
Thanks all

Moved the cakes to the water tub. Today is day 12 post-roll. Started to see lots of little spherical bumps around the edges, im hoping they're gonna pin soon, though they've been there for 3 or 4 days.
I never should've used PE for my first brf lol

Woke up to a few pins this morning! Can't wait to get home to see what's going on.
This is my first brf cake pin. What should I do concerning misting at this point? I have other cakes in the tub that are behind

Just ease up and mist a bit less but don't let it dry up. It is fine to mist as it is pinning. Not so fine to leave the fruits soaked 24/7

That's the way she goes, boys. Sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn't, cause that's the fuckin way she goes.

Thanks Way, for keeping up with me man. You've been and a couple others have been a huge help.
Drying out has been my biggest fear. I'll take your advice and FFS try to keep my damn nose out of the tub for the next week

Dont leave standing water on fruits
me personally i only think its okay to spray fruits if you positively know it will dry out rapidly on the surface of the cube

In a water tube(properly adjusted to your environment) there is no need to mist. Drying isn't a problem unless top entries are too big(created by rotating lid or turning lid upside down). You could add some water at bottom of cakes when you see pins as long as it's absorbed within a day.

From everything I've read from you guys, I'm pretty sure things will be ok. I've had a small opening cracked since fruiting and the humidity hasn't moved from 99% since day one. Thanks y'all

Don´t rely blindly on hygrometers, especially not the digitals. As long as the cake surfaces show water droplets, there´s no more of interest. Use your eyes, not hygrometers. RR once said his only use for digital hygrometers is taking a rock and crushing it to bits
