My friend started this growkit on Thursday 19th, it has got lots of tiny shrooms which has made him happy but he wanted to make sure that they look as they are supposed to? Thanks.

They look right. At least for a growkit. When your friend wants to invest a little into the hobby, tell him to get a shotgun fruiting chamber. Search for the term on the shroomery.

Cheers, does that mean he needs to open the bag more often and let some fresh air in? Thanks.

Cheers twistedty I will tell 'my friend' to baby them more and make sure they get enough fresh air. Does the amount of light make a difference?

6500k light spectrum 12 hours on 12 hours off. CFL or florescent desk lights work well.

Thanks MudaFuka Do you think maybe my cakes are to dry and that's why the shrooms are so tiny? Shall I add some water to my cakes again, will this help them grow bigger?

I could be wrong but I'm nearly sure that the "fatness" of your fruits has to do with FAE, of which, a grow kit has next to none of if you follow your vendors intstructions.

Thanks Guys, this is a great site. My friend has started misting and fanning 3-4 times a day. Humidity is around 89% temp is 22-24c and he has started putting a box over them for 12 hours a day. Fingers crossed!

Sounds like you're doing great dude. I'm not sure if the box is necessary though, although I could be wrong, maybe it will help. I look forward to seeig the results keep us posted and good luck.
