here are my pins a week ago and here it is now
i fan it 4-6 times a day and i have a fish tank pump.temps are 70-78 i dont have an accurate reading on humidity but im sure its high enough if i got this far. i mist lightly 2-3 times daily. its about 2" of rye cased with 50/50 peat/verm. any ideas on why its so slow. could it just be genetics. everyday i have more and more new primadora forming but the rest are going very slow.

The lake of info on the RH and temp and the moister content in the case makes it difficult to guess as to why, but it does not look that bad, just gotta wait.

temps are 70-78. moisture content should be fine. it took 2 1/2 weeks to pin and i dunked it on the 2 week mark for 8 hours becuase i figured it had ot be dry.

well if its often at 70 degrees that seems about right to me. i fruit at 67-70ish most of the time so i get a littel slower growth. just a little slower though doesn't hurt anything else.

Let em grow I guess.
I have some slow fruiting strains and some fast ones.
One strain I have (z) is taking me 10 days from pinset to flush. ? ?

yea im guessing its slow genetics. it was a slow colonizer, slow pinning (although im not sure if it was just due to dry sub cause it pinned after dunking) and slow fruiting
and when i opened my tub the lid sliiped in my hand and hit one of the shrooms which bruised black. is that normal for GT

Yeah bruising is not bad at all just be careful around then, they will break easily if abused.
Looks good to me man, let them get nice and mature so the wait will be worth it. Good job dude
