if a veil breaks on a few mushrooms and not on others, is it okay to pick the ones who have broken and wait for the others? or just pick them all about then? and how late after it breaks do you want to pick it for printing?

There's no right or wrong way. But yes I pick mine right after the veil breaks and not all at once, just the ones whos veils have broken. I pick the ones I want to print right after the veil breaks. Its said to give the best weight and potency after the veil breaks. It also keeps spores from getting eveywhere.

you can pick them whenever you want so long as if you grab from a cluster you grab the whole thing. some say you can use a sterilized scalpel to cut away a shroom from a cluster but i dont beleive it myself. youd be inviting contams in bad

sounds reasonable. maybe random question but can you eat the little "cluster base" or whatever?

I have cut away a shroom in this manner before. It was a big one that grew fast leaving 5 or 6 immature ones attached at the base. i harvested the rest a few days later. only did this once but it worked fine for me, no contams. also the "stump" of the one i cut bruised a vibrant blue.
