looking good.. i noticed one of the caps has seperated the veil and is turning up.. make sure to picl before spores drop as they make a mess and can lead to contams… did you dunk your cakes? If not put em in a tupperware container of water in the fridge for 12-18 hoirs between each flush then roll the cakes in dry verm and you will get larger fruits

That one and the little guy next to it both look like sporeless mutants. They don't even have a veil.

You could use more holes in your SGFC
It will help with fae and that way your fruits will not rely so heavily on your manual misting.
The air currents surrounding this SGFC will aid in evaporation from the perlite.

Plus the FAE from the new holes will give you more pins and mushrooms, and the ones you do have won't grow fuzzy slippers like the ones growing from your cakes right now.
Not bad at all for a first grow!

This is the same conclusion I came to. but thats the extent of my knowledge on this type of mutation. I have noticed that the mushroom is continuing to grow so I'm gunna wait to pick it.

thanks for all the quick replies! was yalls first grow this exciting?haha My fc isn't really a sgfc i just put a few holes 2 inches apart on the top and bottom of two sides for fae. Ive heard so much conflicting info on how necessary all those holes are and ive read humidity can be an issue, plus im in a position where i can fan and mist plenty during the day. But like i said im not against a sgfc and I think im going to turn it in to one for my next grow to find out for myself.

Yep, I agree.
Side by sides comparisons are the best!

Sometimes with MS you get mutants....it's just from random genetics...potency will vary from fruit to fruit regardless.....

Yes. Especially pick the one which looks like one of those peanut butter cookies with a Hershey's Kiss in the middle of them that someone always brings to Christmas parties. It looks delicious.

ok, i harvested everything but the ones that are healthy and look like they could mature one or two more days the substrate is turning really blue...i guess this could be from the stress from harvesting, touching, etc etc tell me what y'all would do? pick the rest and DnR the cakes for 2nd flush or...leave them until there either fully grown or stalled/aborted

In my experience bluing is pretty normal, usually due to water loss. I would let them grow a bit more and then harvest once the veils start breaking, and take a couple spore prints for a future grow Also, you only need to dunk for the 2nd flush, no need to re-roll. Congrats on the first grow!

i read something online, (i dont remember where) but i guess sometimes the mutants are more potent than just the normal ones. would be awesome to find some hunting or something and find out if it was true or not.

i would let them grow. i dont think anything bad is going to happen. just dont let them drop spores or it could contaminate the rest of your cake.
