from looking at that casing, i'd say you can expect a few more, maybe alot more, maybe not.

try deep scratching next time...that sometimes helps out a little bit

Its a little over an inch deep I let it colonise for 4 days and then put it in the fc because I thought well mushrooms mycelium pokes through in nature and then fruits and I really want these mushrooms so I put it in there. Hopefully there are tons under the caseing layer.

little over an inch deep is pretty thick. given that and at only 4 days it sounds and looks like you went in early. so you're seeing few pins probably in the few areas it poked through first. now those pins are bolting, and robbing resources from the rest of the case that isn't even ready to develop pins yet. timing is so important for good pinsets and jumping the gun got you some mushrooms early, but way fewer than you could have had if you waited even a day longer IMO. ill predict you can still yield ok in the long run through a few flushes, things are just going to end up uneven on you all the way through.

and i wouldn't take that deep scratching advice either if i were you

yeah no need to deep scratch

next time keep the casing layer around 1/2 inch thick

A light scratch at this time will distribute the myc better resulting in a more even pinset. Check out bluemeanie's thread on scratching. You should strive to perfect your casing tek so eventually you won't need to do anything but maybe a light patch every so often. BTW pins should never develop under the surface of a casing. GL

never?

These never started to colonise the caseing layer and fruited. I made the caseing insanely thick on acident it was my first real caseing. Best flush I have ever had though.

Yes never! You should look closely at your technique and you will see. Understand under the surface there is no light no fresh air also meaning high CO2 and warmer temps as the myc is colonizing the casing. None of these conditions are conducive to pinning much less all conbined. You need to look deeper at what actaully was happening. Trust me

Well then should I like? Move the casing with my fingers or do you think I will rip small peaces of mycelium.

I wouldn't touch a thing your pins are already set my friend. Never use your fingers instead use a clean fork. :wink:

yeah, my pins just formed on the TOP of my casing layer, not underneath it... And they all popped out at about the same time... It's funny though, because I have 2 casing trays in my FC, one is half the size of the other, and the little one is pinning like mad, but the big one hasn't shown a single pin yet... Oh well, I hope it does SOMETHING, if not, i have 4 double tubs on their way.
