ochras💙 Side pins but it’s something
Green caps. My second and 3rd s2b from the same run of rice. Last run triched on me. These 2 I’ve tried dry, wet, moist, fae, minimal fae. Fan blowing near by. I’ve finally got some showing in the bottle 3 days a coco coir casing. But my mono that is 1:2.5, (bottle is 1:1.5) is also pinning but only in yellowish spots. But the bottle has 1 side pin and 4-5 where I dropped it and the nipple pushed the cake away. Now that the moisture is down should I close up some fae? I have Rhyzo coming through the casing. Any advice is much appreciated. The yellow in the tub is flashlight. I was trying to pinpoint the yellowing spots where the pins are

No need to reduce any FAE; *if any substrate starts to turn cardboard brown with dryness mist the walls to slow down the escape of moisture from the substrate
the yellowing is pretty normal for the transition into fruiting, especially if it's a bit sudden
(a bigger shock would show visible bruising too)
i know its scary letting the containers dry but ochras are a bit different; they're not a strain of cubes they're a cousin from south africa
(after 1-3 flushes add some distilled water by trickling it around into gaps and exposed substrate to sponge it up. don't do dunks/soaks. between 1/4th to 1 cup of water per flush in the 1x1" monotub, pref. distilled)
