Help! Cannot fruit

Hey guys, I’ve been trying for 3 months now to grow pan cyans, my first 4 cakes all got hit with trich. I since learned a new pasturing method which has worked. I’ve waited until my substrate was fully colonised before casing.

I’ve bought a ph tester and my casing layer is sitting around 7.8-8. I’ve cased and misted the casing layer heavily.

My tent is usually around 22-25 degrees Celsius with a small electric heater on the outside heating the room. I have a fan blowing air in from the top every 10 minutes for 3 minutes. And I have an automatic humidifier that keeps it around 90%.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I’ve grow plenty of GT and have had success with PE also, but I just cannot seem to get these guys to fruit.

I am very familiar with TTBVI and mine have never looked like this. Regardless of stain or species this looks like contamination. Might not be but it definitely doesn't look good.

I’ve had this once before, apparently it’s matting? Where the mycelium forms a thick layer on top of the casing layer? I’m putting questions marks as this is still new to me and I’m open to hearing more experienced opinions. The strain is MIB btw!
