Hey guys..you see the casing with the 3 PE on it..well i cased it 3-4 times and it just wouldt colonize for the life of god!!so after recasing 4 frickin times i said screw it and scraped the casing off good as i can and threw it in the FC to fruit..and this is the 1st flush so far..but iam wondering why there is only 3 shrooms poping up?btw this is HPOO if that helps..i know these 2 shrooms are going to be huge but why only 3??!!!?!! do casing without casing layers usually do crappy with pinsets?
 Full shot of FC

A casing without a casing layer isn't really a casing. 
As for only 3 shrooms, that's prolly a pinset issue.

You need to look at your casing procedure dude.
First start off at your casing mix. It looks like you used peat. Did you follow the 50/50 + tek? And how did you adjust the pH of the peat?
Then look at how you applied it. For starters was your H-poo fully colonized? Then how thick did you make the casing layer? How wet did you make it? What conditions did you allow it to colonize in and for how long?
All these are things you need to consider.
Have you read this? http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/3290155/an/0/page/0 It's key to pinsets and casing.
