Looking good!! What are your temps and fanning/misting schedule? I'm not sure but if that's glare on your foil I'd say it needs more moisture as they do seem a bit on the drier side.

Temperature is between 76-78. Mist 4-5 times a day evenly spaced. Fan for 20 seconds about thirty minutes to one hour after each mist.
I have 8 cakes that have been fruiting for 4 days today and all have between 5 and 15 pins at this time.
Also, I put the shiny side up with the foil so light was better reflective when on.

After the first flush, how do assure plentiful future flushes?
I have read about dunking after the first flush is finished but I've also read or watched that all that needs to be done is putting baked verm on top of the areas which my shrooms were plucked from?
I am confused and want to assure I get the most out of each flush. Please help me do things right!

Dunk & roll after each flush.

For another 24 hours? Do I rinse them first too?
What does this accomplish also? Sorry, I'm so curious about everything!

You don't need to roll after each flush, but the dunking will help.
When you're first flush is over, make sure to get the aborts off. If you have new pins starting, it is ok to leave them.
I rinse my cakes gently , then dunk for 24 hours (in between each flush, i've experienced crappy results for anything less than 15 hour dunk).
After the dunk, re-introduce into fruiting.
The only thing I do with more verm is to give the cake a new top and bottom case to make sure the old verm doesn't contam.

That's entirely understandable considering I'm toasted myself.
