But sporeless mutants drop very few spores, which is the reason he asked.

so if these spore-less mutants; i dont know what to call it? sub-strain? was in fact more potent how would i isolate it? also im about to test potency but im basing that on the fact ive heard that spore production kills potency. once again this is all intelligent guessing i dont really have any solid evidence to back this up.... i guess we shall see.

It doesn't kill potency, exactly. It's just that the production of psychoactive compounds stops while the mushroom continues to grow.
If you want to isolate, Stropharis has an excellent write-up on how to do it.

if that is the case would you have more potent fruits if you pick them before they break the veil?

Slightly more potent, yes. Many of us do pick as close as we can to the moment it tears. It also produces better-looking shrooms that handle storage in plastic bags better, IMO.

agreed, makes the dry fruits taste terrible, if you need a print or two by all means let them open up and drop but i harvest before the veil break

Thanks for the update! God, those sporeless mutants make me salivate. I'm definitely sending that over to Tmethyl for his House of Horrors thread, unless you object.

i would take those off the verm, it's spending energy colonizing it

Agree with cronicr. The cakes will continue to colonize the verm, slowly, but it sure does spend energy doing so. Time to clone those bad boys, if you haven't already done so.

so no dunk and roll? I've heard talk of cubes not needing it but I've never heard for sure either way.

I thought the point of dunking and rolling with verm is to create a micro-enviroment that triggers pinning. I got the idea to put moist trays of verm from http://www.fanaticus.com/casing.htm
So your saying that this technique wastes energy? Could you explain this a little more? I did a side by side comparison of no tray vs tray and the exact same sized brf cakes had much bigger flushes on the cakes with trays. Not saying that proves anything but it made me a believer.
