Hey I'm new to this website but I have some knowledge of chemically extracting and synthesizing entheogens. My first Tek I'm currently working on is a brf cake with gulf Coast cubensis. I'd like to ask about help on stopping the pinheads from aborting whenever I pick some ripe cubes. I try to be careful, but I end having to snip the ripe mushrooms from the basidiomycetal clusterfuck at the bottom. Can someone tell me what I should do please? If I leave the ripe fruits on, the spores make a mess everywhere and I can't have that. Enclosed is my picture of the cake.

Don't reroll. Encourages contamination.

Yes they are contam resistant, but the new verm isn't. Just my experience. Not to mention it's more of a waste of verm, than it is an improvement in yield, just not worth it to me.

When one mushroom in a cluster is ready before the rest, carefully slice it off near the base with a sharp knife. If you try to pull it out, you will abort the rest of the cluster. RR

Do exactly the opposite of this. Flush, is a word created by man. Mushrooms won't always conform to what we want them to do. Most times the 2nd and 3rd flush pins form at the same time as the first flush pins, picking them all at the same time will hinder your future flushes. Use an xacto knife or sharp scissors to individually pick each mushroom as it matures
