Okay, to start things off, thanks to all here on the shroomery. could have never gotten this far without your guys' help.
I have here some pictures of my first grow. Mazatapec strain. 1/4 pint jars. verm/brf PF cakes.
Here's some nice pin sets if i do say so myself.





And this one was just about ready.

the veil was starting to tear.

The fruiting chamber.

inside view.

And this cake had some deformities in the caps but it still turned out beautiful.




And now here are pictures of the cakes at full maturity 
















this one was just so beautiful. my favorite one of all.


all of this from 1/4 pint cakes, let me know what you all think and thanks again for every bit of information on this site! sorry for all the pics

I was surprised myself, especially for it being my first grow! I like Maza though slow growers but well worth it. great trip!!

I know, i don't think cakes suck at all IMHO casings are just better I hear. I can hardly believe how fast they grow after pinning starts though, It's like one day you see tiny pins, then the next day you wake up and are like wtf happened!

Nice grow man, congrats on having a successful first one. Im doin Maz too and its doing amazing. I did B+ too and the Maz is absolutely doing far better than the B+ in terms of growth. It colonized faster, pinned, faster, had a better pinset, the mushrooms look better altho they do grow a little bit slower after the pin stage. But im definitely sold on Maz, i have 4 caps printing right now so ill have plenty of spores for later

Well I didnt have a scale so I just split all of the harvest into 2 portions and ate them wet with my boyfriend. we probably had over an 8th apiece. how ever much it was, it was one crazy trip.

EBAY! Best $80 I've ever spent. It's soooo worth the investment.
I tried to find one in stores, and they just don't compare. When you get one, make sure it's a good one. It will pay for itself in SOO many ways. 
I'm excited to see the updates! you motivate me to get my darn camera out. haha

Awesome grow! The 1/4 pint jars kick ass, don't they? I'm through with 1/2 pint jars. Colonization is too slow and uneven, starts fruiting in some places before all of jar even gets colonized, always have to birth early and throw away uncolonized substrate. NEVER AGAIN!

Those look amazing, after seeing those pictures I definitely want to give them a try!
Scales - I found my pocket scale for somewhere around $8 on amazon.com and it works great. I have about 20 triple-beam balances at work but I thought it would have been suspicious to carry one out the door with me.

Awesome thanks for all the Pics!!! I have 2 BRF 1/2 pints with mazatapec, and wasn't sure if I should stick with SGFC or try my first shoebox. But these came out nice! Im just planning on picking when the veil starts to tear as I heard they dont get any more potent after that, and the spores make a mess. But great job! You may have convinced me to just add them to my SGFC 😁
