Need help Quick!!! First Time Casing & Pinning starting but its uneven!!!!!!
    #5937295 - 08/06/06 02:58 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

I just had my first pins come up over night but they are only on the edge of my casing. This is my first time casing and I don't know if this is normal and more pins will form in the middle or I need to do something to even them out because I have read that your first pinset is what determines your 2nd 3rd and so on pinsets(more pins on the 1st set more on the rest). Please help me out let me know if I should just chill out and let them do their thing or take steps to even out the pinset.Thanks!

The best way to prepare for an even pin-set is during the final stages of incubation w/ the casing layer. You want to make sure the mycelium is colonized evenly over the casing layer (not overlay, colonized evenly just below the surface), and patch if needed (apply an UBER thin layer of casing material to areas that are whiter before\more then the other areas) to promote even growth. If your casing is in the fruiting chamber, and its already started pinning, you may be better off just letting it grow out as it is.  :thumbup: :mushroom2:

Thanks! so what you are saying is where the mycelium is poking though when comes out of the incubator patch only that area so it will grow through the casing layer at the same time...I will try that agian next time!

Yea... when its incubating, patch over the areas where mycelium pokes through early, then put back into the incubation chamber until growth is full and even over the casing. Then when the time is right, take out and fruit. Hope this helps!  :thumbup: :sun: :tongue2:

Looks good bro your fruits are maturing in the order that the myc was exposed to fruiting parameters first. I would say that the myc had first poked thru around the edges by the looks of it. Keep the moisture up and look forward to even a better second flush! GL

pins could be forming where there is the most moisture

esdfsfd called it. The edges are pinning because that is where the moisture is. Mushrooms love water! The casing must be kept at the proper uniform moisture content to achieve even pinning. Read the link Hyphae posted.

I have been misting the middle more than the pins....I even injected 20cc of water into the middle where there are no pins...Two days later I still only got like 5-10 tiny pins in the middle

Your early primordia formation around the edges resulted in early maturing fruitbodies which the myc has given more or less all it's energy into maturing instead of creating more primordia. It all a fine balance (nature).
