infamus-reno LEVEL +10 - IN GOOD STANDING
GT Length to pin after first dunk?

background: 10 verm GT cakes in small terrarium with aquarium airpump for OAE sitting in perlite. lots of condensation on inside walls, maybe too much ? ? how do i know if i have too much humidity anyway? only bout 5 cakes fruited to harvest while the others havent or are moving much slower...maybe differnt genes? as 2 cakes fruited in 2 days to pick but others taking like week. how long is too long to wait for pins and from pins to pick ?

after first flush i dunked cakes for 12-16 hours and repeated cycle of OAE and misting but still waiting for new pins to form. if there are some small pins left on cake after 1st harvest should i jus pick them or leave on during dunk? maybe aborts ? are all darker caps aborts ?? i have some white spots on caps as well, maybe mycellium?

this is first time by the way, pumped i got 100% colonization but super bummed they are not all fruiting......patience maybe ? hopefully ?

Always pick off the pins and aborts before dunking. Here is a link that will be quite helpful in your GT adventure in growing.

You want 100% humidity for cakes. So you are doing fine there. Give them a little more fresh air exchange, and make sure the temps are in the 70s F range.
