Daddy like. Daddy like a lot!
Daddy is confused by this, his first real grow this season:

B+ from MS syringe.
If you get close, you can hear the veil breaking.
There are 4 good sized pins on the other 3-stack of cakes, but only that monster on that stack. This is 1st flush too, typical 5 week incubation and 24hr dunk and all that good stuff.
I'm sticking to stone-makers next winter.
Impressive haul there! Hit me up if you want to swap prints. I can get you one from the monster if you like.

Aye, that one is going right on the scale after harvest. I wish I did not have to cut the cap off to get spore prints; it would make a nice statue. There are 2 other pins that are close to what this one started as that I will try to clone.
.... and there I was, putting off the B+ till I had nothing else left in syringes, not expecting much from it. Typical. 
I'm thinking of trying PC'ed brf+rye in quart jars. Galandoi will be first for that trial, then some cubes. Spawning to bulk has been hit-and-miss for me, and I like the safety of tyvek-ed lids and verm barriers.
Is that stacked cakes or one big one?

Ah, nice. I did some glasses early on, but tyvek-ed lids are the way to go in my climate. Lost too many jars to contams, even in a glovebox and all. I like those multi-pinners like Ecuador and Colombia. Even un-isolated they'd pin like fiends. By the looks of it, B+ is pretty much a stand-alone shroomer.
Daddy needs more isolation experience, so the other fat pins on these cakes will be clipped soon. Srsly, I'd like a print off that Columbian. I'll be taking prints of the monster in a day or two, as soon as the veil is all off.

I pulled the monster just now. Seemed eager to spore out, slight blackening on the stem just under the cap. Weighs in at 32.5 grams. Zing. Not epic, but the heaviest single shroom I've managed to grow so far. Next buddy is gonna be like

The cap is on the first foil for prints. I should be able to get a few outta this fellow. PM coming when the print is dark and baggied.
