i see that dark spot, but it could just be where you patched it or maybe the casing layer was really thick there and not much myc broke through..

i think your shroomies need more FAE, they're lookin pretty thin and wimpy.

casing is 60 40 coco verm i know the ratio is off but didnt have any verm left . it was cased and directly put into fruiting chamber since coir is aggressive it also seems to me the myc there is not colonized more like around but if its green i ll see within a day or 2 for sure right ? if i spo some green at first sight and harvest whats on it , would it be ok to eat them ?

If you cased with 60/40 coir and verm, then I would say that you have major overlay occuring. That is going to hurt you on you pinset and flushes. Since it is overlayed, you probably wont make it to your first flush if you end up with Trich, (Green). I would say that by tomorrow you will know if you have contamination or not. Those fruits that you have right now are aborting. I hate to say this, but I think you won't get much more than what you have right now. The more and more that I look at those pictures, the more it looks like major contamination. I'm sorry man...... I truly believe that it's "toast".

can this casing be drying out and bruising ? because the casing layer was very thin maybe 1/4" or something since it is not green still im misting it from time to time . Maybe while fruiting its just drying out and bruising and maybe some aborts can be explained like that ??

Naw! Those are late aborts....... Whatever caused it to happen did so late in the game. If whatever caused it is not rectified, all else will abort as well,(only not so late, they'll be baby aborts if that). Could you take a real good close up picture of all that apparent overlay? Could be something else.

It looks completely dried out. You need to flood that pan and let the substrate soak overnight. They also look like they need more light.

Yes, It will be like a dunk and roll without the roll. Pick those aborts off and do as RR said. You really need to re-think the way you're humidifying or you stand the chance of it happening again. This set you back about a week.

%30 or so of the pins have aborted , can i just pick the aborted ones then flood the casing while it still has the remaining fruits and get rid of the excess water then , by doing this im aiming to save the ones that have not aborted and maybe 20 30 grs of shrooms =( can it be done this way or should i remove everything dunk and wait for new shrooms

You're going to have to re-case it. Flood the tub, and use something to weigh down the substrate. It's going to want to float so use something like a couple of plates to keep it submerged. After it has been dunked then re-apply a new casing layer. Make sure you get the moisture on the casing layer correct so that you don't struggle with humidity from the beginning. After that you should be ok.
