Does my fungi look OK? First grow

I'm trying my hand in mycology for the first time and I'm wondering if the fruits of my labor are looking good to the more experienced cultivators. Thai tanic strain if that matters

Yeah wasn't having the easiest time getting my pics uploaded but I'll def post more. I'm in almost 2months since I knocked up my jars which I purchased with a kit and ordered syringe from "best" sp0res. Very slow colonization and lost 9 out of 12 to contams. Not sure if it's all to blame on my rookie mistakes either I know sterility is paramount. Had pinning start in jars at about 97-99% colonization so I dunked and rolled my first came and just birthed the other two and it's been 5 days.

So if the veil is torn I should harvest right even if they're small?

Yeah once the lil veil tears off, that is when you should pick em. You CAN let them grow in size for another day or two, but that will not do anything beside add more weight. Potency is at it's highest by volume when veils break off.
Also I would space the cakes out a bit and not have em so close together. That's just an opinion.

Pics of your chamber? Tek? I agree those cakes should have at least an inch between each other.

I ordered a brf kit made my own SGFC probably don't have enough perlite only about 2 inches. I read somewhere around here to keep them close to promote a microclimate in between. I'll move them apart today.So I had to pick a few last night and they didn't make it very long. Ended up cleaning the cake early. They were pretty damn good if I say so myself. Didn't take my normal dose either and had a nice little trip I also made a print so I'm excited to start another round

Those cakes should flush more than once. Did you dunk? Redunk? Id use a smaller container for that few of cakes. Provides a better climate. Also try making your own substrate? Its simple and informative.

I dunked again and I'm going to get a smaller fc and yes I plan on making my own substrate from here on out. I made a syringe so we'll see how round 2 goes

Is your shotgun raised off of the surface it sits on, with something under each of the four corners to prop it up? I can't tell.

Yeah I have some 2x4's under it but I'm thinking I don't have optimum airflow but I'm going to remedy that. 2nd flush growing well though
