Okay last thursday night my casings finally had mycelium poke through all three casing trays. it wasnt alot poking through but enough to where i knew it was time to place into fruiting chamber...
so last thursday night i placed 3 trays into my two tier greenhouse. i placed them in there and the temp is anywhere between 65 - 73 degrees with humidity at 100%... i also placed my two small lights that are in the green house one light per tier so i have two lights there only like 8 watts a piece but there on a timer for 12/12 cycle... i just checked my casings and still no signs of pins ... should i start to worry????? am i doing something worng? should i be misting the casings??? if i should be misting what is the ratio for h202 water/hydrogen peroxide mixture? should i be misitng daily or twixe or more? thanks

Nothing to be worried about yet. Give it more time.
Dont quote me on this, but for casings i dont think your humidity should be that high, 95-100% is ideal for cakes, but for casings i think this can saturate the casing layer.
Quote:
during pre-pinning/primordia formation you want to keep 92-95% rH.. after pinset drop back the rH to 85-89%...
Once pins form u can drop back the humidity and help prevent aborts.
Too high humidity can sometimes cause mycelium to start growing into the air, looks kinda cool though.

try dramatically increasing the FAE (fresh air exchange) for a day or two, and if your working with casings you can dial back the humidity to 85% or so. If the casing layers are over saturated you'll get no pins until they dry out a little.
Coincidentally, you can kill two birds with one stone on this one. Just increase your FAE _until_ your humidity drops down to about 85% and stays there.

U can kill three birds with one stone with more FAE
even less chances of contams.
