 Did my entire tub just abort?

I think I may be in trouble. My entire monotub may have just aborted!
Here's the pic.
Any suggestions? I misted the sides. Not enough FAE?
Thanks!

Holy Crap, I've never seen anything like that if they are all aborts. You must be pretty unlucky.
Still, it's hard to tell without knowing how old they are, but they look like aborts to me.

WoW, thats a tub, my visions gone.
maybe an abort, how deep did you case it? temp/ humidity?
How often did you allow airflow? is the bottom saturated? guess u really cant check.

The casing layer looks dry, the humidity probably dropped too low too long and they aborted.
Sorry, were you monitoring RH? Were you misting?

Why do you have 4 holes and only 2 stuffed with polyfill?

VERY unlikely they all aborted. They look fine to me! They're growing since the last pic I saw from a day or so ago....
Just give it TLC and time...

you need the polyfill in all holes, the point of the monotub is it is a self contained micro-climate, all of your humidity will have gone.

Psilli: Yeah, there's more of them and they're bigger but I believe the growth has stalled for whatever reason.
I may have accidentally dried it out too much by leaving a fan on in the room they were in. I wasn't constantly misting but I did mist the walls this morning when I noticed growth had seemingly stalled.
I didn't case this, it's just spawned substrate (popcorn to worm castings/coir). And I did have polyfill in all the holes, I was just in the process of changing it when I took the pic.
I guess I'll just wait and see. If it has all aborted, should I pick all the aborts and case? The substrate has pulled away from the walls of the tub indicating a humidity problem. Unfortunately, I don't have an extra hydrometer to put in the tub.
It's gonna be a long day of waiting. Maybe I'll make some special tea and see what the mycelium tells me it needs 
Cheers!

Don't be afraid to mist your casing to near saturation! More than likely as said above that prolific flush needed more water, they demand a hell of a lot. FYI there is no indication that FAE's were less than optimal I mean look at that pinset! Perfect air exchanges bro! Try to develop that mycosense and it will reward you often! GL

that monotub needs holes around the top as well as around the casing layer

i want to know how much in dry weight you get from the aborts...im thinking 4-5 grams dry.

There did seem to be some growth today. I'd say that perhaps 20% of the pins are still viable. Of course, I could have been mildly hallucinating when I looked in the tub last. I laid a piece of wax paper across the pinset. That should increase the rH for the pinset and perhaps save something. I'll take a better look at it tomorrow.
And yes, there were polyfilled holes in the lid. Check out the grow log.
So, assuming I can't save this flush, what are my options? A dunk would be too messy. Maybe just harvest what I can, mist to saturation, and then case with 50/50 verm/coco? If I could pull 4oz. off this thing, I'd be happy. I know there's still life in the cake.
