Can anyone tell me how to reproduce this?

Yeah, so I crushed up a casing (cased w/ straight "Bed-a-Beast" coir) casing layer and all, threw a layer of verm on top, and this monster came out:
So... what the hell did I do right here?

You can clone that specimen, but it definetely isn't a monster. If you want to clone it, a simple clean and safe way to clone it is put the mushroom in a glove box, along with a clean prepped syringe w/ water, a jar(1/2 pint, etc...), and your liquid culture ingreients that have already been sterilized by pressure cooking.
Once all are in glove box, take your sterilized syringe with clean water and stick your needle through half way in the shroom and push a little water out and suck back in after and then stab all the way through shroom through other side and inoculate liquid culture jar as you would with a spore solution syringe. After that treat it like you would with any other lc.
Correct me if I am wrong anyone.

Too much hassle. It's not really a monster.
Normally, in a flush with small number of mushrooms, you'll get larger mushrooms. Usually, 2nd or 3rd flush produce larger ones.
If you want the monsters, try picking off a bunch pins early.
Congrats, btw.

I dunno, I guess that I think a 76g cube is pretty big (Turned out to be 7.4g dry).
Yeah, I know about cloning, already did. I was more questioning the environmental conditions.

That's exactly what it is. With a smaller pinset, each individual mushie will get more nutes and can grow to monstrous proportions. A few months back I had a monotub of poo that contamed on one side, but still grew out on the other side. Those few that grew out were massive.

I'm sorry for disagreeing with monsterous status. Those things are fucking huge.
Well, here's a picture of the mini-ster dried:

Oops, I accidentally double posted the pic of the 2nd largest, and didn't even show the largest. This friggin fruit was just shy of 200 grams.
that's 194.76 btw, not 19,476. And I was just thinking, if you really wanted to reproduce a single large mushy, just do a small casing and put some wax paper w/ a hole in the center over it before pins start developing. The wax paper should hinder pin development, causing just one or a few to poke through the hole. Get rid of the smallest and let the big one soak up all the nutes. Should get you a monster to be proud of.

Yeah.. it made me pretty happy. So big that it straight up fell over on itself and grew at a 90* angle.
I had to take strips of it like jerky to dry it. Fun stuff.
