Why is it when I get a great pinset only about 5% continue to mature? it is a real heartbreaker to see this happen every time.
Thanks Rickster

very likely a lack of moisture. once the big ones get moving and start maturing they start sucking up available water leaving less for the others and they abort. different strains supposedly have different abort rates as well (although i couldn't tell you which off the top of my head) - but if you post your strain maybe somebody with experience specific to it knows or can make a reccomendation

Are you useing cakes or casings?

Casing's require less misting, over misting while they're mushrooms maturing will cause them to abort you have to be carful about that. Speaking from experience :wink:

Try again with less misting.....high humidity or to low can cause aborts.

Most times it is a lack of available moisture. People have a tendency to slack off their water delivery after the pins are set mainly because of misinformation. As creamcorn said water demands are very high with a full load bro. GL
