Is it because the larger fruits demand the nutes, so the smaller ones abort?

there are many factors, humidity level, temperature control, bad genetics. There is no definitive answer for why aborts happen...

pick all your aborts and dry them, eat them on a g per g basis, or as many as you want i guess

you should remove aborts btw. Just not every day. Maybe once or twice a week...you could do it more often but the more you mess with the cake the higher your chances of contamination are.

Don't remove aborts until you harvest, and maybe not even then.

maybe not even then? what do you mean? i ALWAYS remove aborts when i harvest, it opens up room for new pin formations.

Remove aborts during harvest. The reason you don't remove them prior to harvest is because you would be disturbing the mycelium while it's focusing on producing mushrooms.
Aborts can be caused by many variables... Some of the more common ones are Fruiting Conditions, Genetics, and Contamination from competitors (IE: mold, bacteria, fungus) or chemicals(Lysol, bleach etc). All of which can cause aborts.
Unfortunately, with multispore you roll the genetic dice a multitude of times, making your chances of seeing aborts fairly high. Try strain isolation for some nice, static results.
-------------------- Do not deny the classical approach, simply as a reaction, or you will have created another pattern and trapped yourself there.

Be careful not to disturb pins for future flushes while removing aborts. But really, they won't go bad or anything. True aborts are harmless.
