What causes side pinning and how to prevent it?
    #7571238 - 10/28/07 10:06 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

I am not sure if it is the type of try I use. If it is because I don't add a casing layer or what but I am having horrible side pinning. Here is a pic and tell me what you guys think.[image]http://[/image]

Well it looks like you need side or edge pinning because if u didn't you wouldnt be harvesting nearly as much so to me in your case is a good thing its happening. Just an observation, good luck.

They're pinning from the sides because they like the conditions there better than in the middle. I assume that the RH between the foil container and the cake is much higher than in the center of the casing.

It's similar with cakes. They tend to grow from the bottom. nearer to the perlite.

no worries tho.

next time. try using a different container. i hear that lining boxes with trash bags work good because the trash bag with cling to the cake as it dries out and shrinks eliminating that gap that the mushies love.

i think of it as the amount of surface area moisture can evaporate off of. theres just alot more surface are along that side edge that goes to one little spot. making it alot more humidified than the rest of the casing.
