Pins only on bottom of cakes

I did a search and couldn't find what I was looking for. I'm relatively new, and am working on my (maybe) last batch of PFtek cakes before I move on to casing. The thing is, I have only had pins grow from the bottom of the cakes! I did the dunk and double ended vermiculite deal, but the only time anything grows is out from under the bottom of the cake. It's the only place not getting light so it doesn't make sense to me. Can mushrooms get too much light? Only growing from underneath the cake. Does anyone have any idea why this is?

There seeking the higher moisture, that are on the bottom of your cakes.They tend to start on the bottom, and work there way up.You dont say how long you dunk for? Do you have plenty of RH? As far as the light, I just left mine out so they received normal light in the room 12-12.

24 hr dunk, humidity is in the upper 90s. They're growing from where the extra vermiculite layer on top was. I don't have a car to check on them today, but I should be able to get down there tomorrow, so I guess I'll see how they're progressing then. Thanks.

I might be wrong, but i think your rh needs to be down a bit.
-------------------- one branch of man turns away what has made us who we are, the other,excepts it for how its made man. which path do you choose? ------------------------------------- Man takes advantage of who he is,nature is his home, where he evolved from. So why does he turn it down, defy, and mutalate his birth ground? why does he spread disease, murder his native animals,rape and torture his land, and still feel descent of who he is? live a life that is not true? excepts an artificial home?
