just give them light 16-18 hours.. if your going to use natural sunlight make it indirect so it doesnt harm the cakes.

but its not on an acual cake its like comming off some myc that is like a little bridge off the cake. No signs of pin growth on the real cakes. What should I do? Should I still make the changes or just wait?

just wait... fan 5-6 times a day. make sure that you dont pick the cakes up and play with them... its just not what they like and most of all keep the temp stable and 16-18 horus of light! you will win this battle.

NOT!!!! It means nothing of the sort, it only indicates that you have a fruiting strain which may or may not pin prolifically. (fact!) either way GL!!!!

Where the hell did this 16-18hrs. come from? 12-16hrs. has always been the standard for optimal pinsets IME. Especially stubborn ones They seem to grow better with a longer dark period after pins are set so I've heard

ok, thin out tha verm layer. You said the verm is wet, you don't want it dry but you don't want it soaking or soggy either. (ever seen how long a cake that is to wet takes to finish?) Fanning twice a day, simply put do more.
You will get the hang of it I can feel it

Tell us about your substrate? Is it BRF/Verm? What kind of BRF? Some non-organic BRF have pesticides and preservatives that will ultimately inhibit your fungus.

I would put it in front of a window, indirect sunlight. I bet if you put them in front of a window and give them some good light they will pin.
