time to stop misting???

my first grow and i am very excited to see pins forming.
I have two mono tubs beginning to form pins...a few small ones forming in scattered places in one, and in the other there is quite a bit more. Is this the point where i should stop misting? Or maybe just go lightly on the misting?
Also in one of the tubs there is a shallow puddle of water in the corner. Is there anything i should do about that?
thanks all!

Always mist upwards so the water falls down. Cool on the misting a tad until the pins are well established. At that point, mist regularly they need all the water they can get.
Try and sop up the puddle of water if you can. -Bleh

if you got standing water you are def spraying too much
once you see pins you should stop misting

Also sprinkle a little dry verm on the puddle to soak it up.

So the water droplets don't hit too fast. Depending on the size of your droplets, it could hurt the mycellium.

The direct spraying could cause aborts and hurt the mycelium.
