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!

-------------------- We think we have freedom, but we're all just mice in a maze.... FYI: I stole all my pix off google! F+ PORN! Here is a shit-ton of porn by yours truly! I have FINALLY written up a couple teks as to how SHP has done things in the past. DISCLAIMER: This is not for the newbie to mycology, and not going to work for everyone! This is simply what works for one person when other teks and methods have failed miserably! ~~~~~How SHP does their unconventional WBS Prep!! (NO DRY METHOD)~~~~ ~~~~~SHP's highly disputed method of doing ALL their work outside of a flow hood or a Still air box!~~~~~ ~~~~~Troubles harvesting the side and bottom pins in your mono? Learn how!! Dunking included ;-)~~~~~

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

i dont think they suck, theyre just a ton of work compared to bulk...i, personally, enjoy the extra work and putting more effort into my hobby : )

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.
