They look like appetizers, bite sized. Perfect for shoveling into your mouth by the handful. I would love a print, but alas the six strains I have going are still colonizing.
On second thought they look like a Chinese Army, they may not be very tall but there is a billion of them. LOL

Looking good to me.

Adaptation never creates a new species or trait, but rather the new species/trait always existed within the parent DNA until circumstances allowed it to be activated. For instance, every wolf has the DNA for poodles, but that DNA would never be revealed without man selectively breeding for it.

i've seen small fruits from bulk grows that are put into fruiting conditions before the substrate is fully colonized. ??? i still think it looks good.

That's the way the Texans roll baby! Wait till the second and third flush. They will be sooo much bigger. You'll love the Texans. Potency is amazing!

How is the air exchange within the fruit chamber? I remember that in an FC that was made from the RR video, i didn't put enough holes and the air exhange was low so the fruits stayed relatively short and fat.
It isn't always bad, those short and fat cambodes were wild

It should have yielded much much more! You should have gotten twice that amount on your first flush.

Damn wonder where I went wrong? The fruit just so tiny. Maybe I did fruit a bit early! I know my pesa tub same setup only waited a extra week on it. Is fruiting large fruits ! But pinset wasn't as nice. All the texans fully opened at a very small size. I'm not complaining. Just tryin to figure out how to do better on other tubs that I have colonising now. Thanks guys.

That all depends on what the actual levels of humidity in your tub was. I'm a big fan of casing although I'm well aware that you can do it without it.

You can probably just email yourself from the phone too if you can't find the data cable.
