If you put up a picture it would be easier for us to judge just how "weird" it is. I suspect genetics and the fact that you are using BRF cakes--the largest fruit I ever got from my cake was 15 grams wet.

Personally, I am all for smaller and more abundant mushrooms. A handful of small fruits weighing about--oh lets say an eighth--will probably be more potent than one massive fruit weight the same. If I was in your shoes, I would consider it a win as long as they became mature fruit bodies!

Damn, you're saying this like it's a bad thing. If you move on to bulk grows, you'll appreciate having pins over the entire surface and ending up with a canopy.

thats not really such a bad thing. tons of pins even though they are smaller will still equal to not as many but goriwng bigger.


besides, isnt a canopy, or lots of frutis waht every grower wants, not to mention generaly smaller fruits can be sometimes considered a little stronger (in genreal)

IME, more fruits = smaller    less fruits = bigger    But in the end they weigh out about the same. :shrug:

Generally speaking, if you have 100 big fruits or 200 small fruits, they're delivering the same punch overall, and maybe even weight. However, for my own edification, I'd rather have a substrate absolutely covered in pins than a rich spot and alot of dead zones.

I prefer a shitload of fruits and the aborts they inevitably bring to a handful of monsters. I guess it's just personal preference.

I've had mushrooms not develop because there were so many. It could have been some other factor I'm not sure not enough misting or something but they just wouldn't get any bigger and there were tons of them.

Picked it clean and the 2nd flush was less plentiful, but still impressive and they all matured.

If they dont grow any over the course of 3 days or so I'd pick them all and try for a 2nd flush.

did you know that a substrate pushes out almost all of its pins at once. and then they each wait their turn to grow.

nah it came in the kit i brough they are'nt great i know it's not just that i put that tub in a big clear platic bag that also came with it i just took it out 4 the picture.
why r they so bad the cakes alot smaller.

oh nd if i got a kit like this again in the furute when it's time to fruit should i dig out the verm and put the cake right at the bottom of the chamber so the verm all around it as at the moment a few seem to be trying to grow from underneath.

you just shouldnt buy kits.
