A FOAF is getting really frustrated, its been 6 days and his cake still has no pins! He has high humidity with temp around 80. He also has two pumps pumping in fresh air so that isnt a problem. He also has an old fish tank light thats 12/12 (on/off), so thats also not an issue. It seems he has all the right conditions but its just not working. HELP WHAT SHOULD A FOAF DO? A FOAF also spray and fan and mist the cake too. Here are some pics of the cake and the casing (the casing just finished incubating) that he sent me

It can take up to two weeks. Be patient. 6 days is not long. Also drop the temps more. 80 isn't that low. Go for mid 70s.

Drop the temp to around 70-75 (optimum fruiting temps) and just wait man you need to have patients man. It can take 2 weeks before you start to notice pins. Just chill out and realax man.

also, salting the wound where you cut out the "infection" can help keep it from coming back.
looks like you either have black mold or bread mold below the green meanie.
i had to wait a week and a half for my first pin. it's been a few days since then and i have pins everywhere, so just wait and you shall recieve.

i agree, you are misting too much. you don't want to mist the casing when you're getting waiting for pins, especially when you have knots and young pins popping up.
go a bit lighter on those mistings, only when the casing layer looks dry. i mist right after i place in the fruiting chamber (if you patch, right after that). i mist to near saturation, just where it starts to glimmer, but not sopping wet.
i also mist if the casing layer looks dry, which is easy to tell if you use coco coir in your casings, the color lightens up alot when it dries out.

Sometimes it can even take a month, it all depends.
