Misting Dry Casing with Pins?
    #5337417 - 02/25/06 09:09 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

Is this a good idea? I have this one casing that has anput 1 inch pins, but the casing looks dry. Was the misting only necessary during pin development or should i still mist it? I think I read somewhere that once the pins develop the moisure in the substrate will carry on the rest of the fruiting and misting was no longer necessary, but im not sure. Also, it would be hard not to wet the pins though cause their is an even pinset throughout the whole tray. What do i do?

Well, most people will say DONT MIST THE PINS but i do it all the time and nothing happens. Don't soak them tho. I even took a emptry syringe once and just shot water ontop of the casing, not into it tho. next to the pins so it just poured all over the top near the bases and soaked in.

I agree, I mist aswell without any noticable bad effects.

I like to use a seperate mister for pins incase of dry case/cake.
I boil up some water and load into a well cleaned spayer(bleach is my friend)i do this because i dont want to do any harm to the freshpins from the hydroprox.
do i even need to do this?

After you mist the pins, be sure to fan liberally.

Just put fresh tap in it and then spray it a couple of times to rinse it out.

I would recommend misting carefully between the pins. If the pins stay wet for any length of time in still air, they often abort. That's why a massive air exchange after misting helps prevents aborts.

So true RR. There is absolutely no problem misting pins when you have adequate FAE's in fact is quite healthy for the developing fruitbody as it will absorb some of the moisture putting less demand on your casing and substrate. The only time one needs to be critical of misting is in the primordia formation (pinning stage) here damage can be done easily by an inexperienced myconewbie.
