Treasure Coast or Malabar (pics) Can I harvest?

hey guys, this is my first time at this. I have two strains, but i dont know which is which at this point. The Treasure Coast (5 cakes) colonized fast! The Malabar (5 cakes) were really slow..i hope thats normal. Anyways, I have only 5 cakes that fruited so far, im gonna assume thats the Treasure Coast. The problem is I cant find enough reference photos to confirm that. My next issue is, when can I harvest these brown lil guys, they look good!



 ^ This one, is it ready? Or should I wait til the cap opens up more?
Most of them though still has the veil intact, and that one is completely open, I just didnt know if that open will actually spread out more...hopefully so I can make a spore print...Or should I just harvest them. Also, I did harvest the lil black aborts, just two of them has these rips in them, what are they...and are they safe?

Thanks guys.

Cubes are cubes....there is no way to tell them apart....unless dealing with PE or albinos.
The name some vendor gave a certain group of spores means little.....a cube is a cube.
All of your fruit bodies are edible.

I like mine with the veil just about to tear or just tore , unless going for total weight or to take a print. The potency is as strong as their gonna be in that form you have on the pics, amd the aborts are fine to eat and more potent than you think so watch out with intake. By the way good job for a first. And thats coming from someone born and raised on the actual treasure coast of FL, which is on the central/southeast coast not the gulf thats the west coast.

Thanks for the input guys, i feel more better about it. I have another question: The ones I have harvested so far, i cleaned all the extra vermiculite and fluffy mycelium at the ends of the stems with my fingers, some I even had to cut...well they're bruising really fast, like almost a black color, I know they're suppose to bruise around the handled areas but how dark are they suppose to be?

yes for most but here in Fl ive done field reserch that showed shrooms gained a little weight maybe due to exstream RH at nite and temps lower than normal then to cause denser fruit less stringy tuberous stalks. If the mycilieum receives consistent water the proper way they will have a little more weight in the end but no stronger, Stringy musjrooms means lower RH or dryer cakes without proper FAE..

pretty much as soon as it's a pin it will have the same number of cells as when it matures
