Too much moisture or too little will cause small fruits, as will insufficient light or light in the wrong spectrum.

Yup, it was too much when I saw this.

I was still dialing in my GH.

I’m having the same issue, but have ruled out substrate and genetics:

I grew some GT with 2 cc’s from a spore syringe in Uncle Bens, and then substrate. Fruits were HUGE, but I had a contamination issue that (I think) caused zero psilocybin content. I repeated the process, same syringe, 2 cc’s GT, same substrate, same container. The difference in grow #2 was moving the grow tub to a room with sunlight and less contamination. This time, shrooms were 1/3 the size when veils broke.

SO! The only 2 things that could contribute to the small size: natural sunlight and location. I also wonder if 1st grow had less FAE, thus more CO2 which makes plants (and maybe fungi??) grow faster with less nutritional content.

PS - second grow attempt is also producing near zero psilocybin content 😣. We are now trying to eliminate all potential for contamination bc I think that is the reason for no potency…. It’s very … interesting… 🙃
