I feel like a meathead because I've seen this question asked a million times but I've never read the threads ...and now I can't find one.

My casing has developed pins in the last 24 hours but there is a little-to-moderate amount of condensation on the surface. How should I handle this?

I was thinking about simply laying a sheet of tissue paper over the top. Not pressing down or anything, just letting it soak up whatever it could then removing the tissue.

Advisable?

handle it by leaving it alone :thumbup:  its part of the reason your casing developed pins. :smile:

big pools/puddles are problems, as are overwatering that mats down your casing, but small droplets are just fine.  if you really want to dry it up, increase FAE, don't mess with dabbing anything up unless you deem it really bad.

What a unanimous reply!

Thanks all. I'll quit fussing and let it run its course.

Thanks!
