Is that your casing layer or your bulk? If that's your casing layer your definitely good to go, But if thats your bulk substrate then I don't know what to tell you. With a casing layer you don't have to wait until its 100 percent, In fact some folks case then fruit immediately.

Damn man, that's a bummer. I think what happened was you got too much fresh air in there which is why it's pinning. where you peeking too often? Your going to have to wait for one of the more experienced guys to help you with that one. I believe if you fruit that now your going to raise your chances of contams. sorry i dont have more info or better news for ya, but someone better should be able to help you.

yup i did the same damn thing once from peeking too much. I wasnt using a mono, just a foil covered tray, But luckily I was already 95% colonized so it worked out ok for me. Hopefully RR will come to the rescue here.

I think you're better off just waiting until that thing is ready. Forget about those pins because 1 your flushes will be a lot crappier if you don't case it 2 there will be a higher risk of contamination and 3 your cake will not have a reservoir of water from the verm and peat so it will dry out quicker. But im a noob so don't take my word for it.

yeah not to call you out, But 1. casing cubensis is not beneficial so it's basically a waste of time and money. 2. your absolutely correct. 3. verm and peat?? all in all I think your right (not sure though) maybe pick those pins, tape up your holes and continue to incubate it until it's 100%. Still I want to hear from one of the pros to see if I'm close to right about this. Ber with us man, You'll get the correct answer soon enough.

yea too much fae that's why its pinning and thats why its drying out.
when i put my tubs away to colonize i put the poly in my few holes and then put a blanket over it and never check on it for aweek.
leave it be and see what happens. thats all you can really do.
edit: yes, casing is a waste with cubensis imo!

Is casing cubensis really a complete waste? The extra water has to account for something doesn't it?

i used to case all the time when i first started and now i dont and have not noticed any loss in yeild at all. if your humidity is at 100% what is the point of casing?
less mess, less time, less money w/o casing and same if not better results. i have notes upon notes to know.

Yup use wax paper it does the same thing as casing. RR taught me that one.

you can bet my expierence that you will gain NOTHING by casing your cubes except upping the chance of contams because its just something else new guys have to worry about being done properly.

Casing is beneficial when you have a problem maintaining a high level of RH. If you don't, just go uncased. I have an indoor greenhouse and in Winter I do case, because the surrounding air is colder than the one in the greenhouse which gives me problems with condensation and thus with RH. It's always a search for the right balance between flooding my trays and having 95%+RH through running the fogger 24/7 or having a low RH. As I don't want to use the fogger 24/7 I go for a lower RH but compensate through providing an appropriate microclimate through casing and misting the casing layer. I use a very slim layer of straight verm. Works well, see signature and grow log.

Yes, I might try a mono next, but believe me, I cannot raise the ambient room temperature above 17°C in Winter and with my greenhouse this is an issue. That's why the easiest way to avoid having to drown my trays to maintain high RH is to use a casing layer. Hey, it's not a crime. I know why I am doing it.
