hey lana....i grew the B+ on compost at around 68-70?F...pinning takes a little longer on compost and a coldshok probably is the key...

good luck

I agree w/BIO. Put them in a cool place for a day or so.

I would also say that coldshocking will solve your problem. Give it a cold shock for two days, and a lots of light after the cold shock.
The compost from stores isn't the best to work with. They and to many nasty thing to it.
