The more fruits produced tend to deplete a substrate of moisture and nutrients faster. While you can reintroduce moisture, not so with nutrients.

Give fruiting blocks a run in your GH and tell me you don't come back with the same results and end up with a shared opinion. Myc will become unhealthy after 1-2 flushes instead of dying off on the 3rd or 4th flush.

But the overall harvest weight is generally the same over the life of the myc.

I have, and I do not share your opinion.

Drying out on all sides does what you are describing, it gets "unhealthy" but it has nothing to do with the nutrients. It is because it is drying out too quickly, on all sides. This will certainly affect the health and lifespan of the substrate...as well as producing small fruits, sometimes in abundance.
