Mid-Cultivation / Still Growing First Grow of GT (need help)
Pics are of three grows, first two are the first shoebox, second two second shoebox, and the last two are a 32oz cup I spawned before either shoebox for different reasons As the title says this is my first ever grow everything up until this fruiting process has gone perfectly but for some reason I cannot get the myc to want to pin. No primordia from what I can tell except maybe in the smallest cup, and nobody seems to have a tub that looks like mine for me to learn from. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'I try almost anything at this point.I do have a hygrometer/thermometer hanging in both tubs about an inch off the surface and l've been trying to balance those at around 85% while fanning every 2 hours, and misting if there isn't visible droplets on the surface. Temp has been about 75 in the tubs, and the fae is dubtub, with a 2.5in filter on each side of the top, but I removed one of the patches and left it open for more air as Was told the hyphae reaching up Was for more oxygen.

How long has it been since you started it s2b?

I did it the night of the 24th pretty sure, so it's been what, 11 days I think? Pur growth looks surprisingly similar given the totally different strains, but seeing yours pinning, and how similar ours are, gives hope alone.

I have 3 tubs i started on the 22nd that are pinning and 3 i started on the 3 20th that are barely doing anything. Your tubs look great but you're being impatient and doing way to much bothering them constantly throughout the day is just gonna make it take longer. They need to be left alone and if conditions are right they will grow. Mist when the sides of the tubs look dry and put a couple holes in your tubs and cover with micro pore tape. Remember that if conditions are good which they appear to be with how well it colonized they will pin and grow on their own time when they want to.

I've figured it's just impatience and bothering them, but I was hoping some professionals could give me peace of mind lol

Yah, man, don't be messing with them all the time. Leave them be to do their thing. Just make sure they don't dry out. Pictures 4, 5, and 6 are all primordia. Give it like 4 or 5 days, and they will be covered in pins.
