I cased 7 containers yesterday in my TIT. Is it ok to check them, or should i wait 2-3 days before checking?
And also should i mist them a bit if they are a bit dry? IF so, what should i put in the water to clean it? bleech, clourine?

wait at least two days, but id give it three IMO, before checking on the casing. I wouldnt mist it until you throw it in the FC.

you don't need to check them yet. but after a few days you should see some growth. use a red light if you could, it does not make them pin. if there are parts that dry out you can mist them with water with some peroxide added in there. if it is dry the myc wont go for it. give it just enough to moisturize it and try to stop whatever dries it out. this is probably too much air circulation, heat, evaporation.

FYI 1:200 bleach works fine for misting but I recommend just simple boiled water or distilled water, no bleach or h2o2 which both slightly retard growth. Also what did you case with and at what depth? This is all relevent to how long you'll incubate or if you need to incubate at all. Read my pinning strategy and keep that casing very moist or you'll lose a good pinset! GL

You can also try 60/40 verm/coir which holds it's moisture much better and provides that much needed optimal microclimate longer during the crucial pinning stage.
