Harvest the 3 big mushrooms in pic 5.
Pic 4. Give it some more time.
You can pick them as soon as the veil breaks. Or preferably, a couple of hours before.
p.s.: why don't we have some pics at contam forum ? Show some love !!!

It's all a question of potency. After the veil breaks, the fruitbodies will be gaining some mass but no potency. Therefore, this is the best timing to harvest.

Just gently pull the mature fruitbodies away from the cake. Try not to disturb nearby fruits.
As you're not having an even flush, you can pick the mushrooms as they grow or let the small ones grow until maturity and pick the whole thing all together.
It all depends on your skill. If you feel comfortable about picking them as they grow, then go for it. If you start damaging nearby pins, just let them grow and pick then all together in the end.

Andjew said: If possible, lay them onto a wire mesh(so air can flow underneath and above), and place a fan nearby to blow air at the mushrooms. This will help the water to evaporate out of the mushrooms, after that you can use calcium chloride as a desiccate(Within an [semi]airtight container, make sure the calcium chloride does not touch the mushrooms). A common product with calcium chloride is Damprid.
Many people will advise against using a desiccate though, as it's a slower method of drying mushrooms and will reduce the potential potency because of longer exposure to oxygen. Go with a food dehydrator if possible.
The more you know!
(You can also let dry ice[solid CO2] gas into your bags to replace all the oxygen in the bag and prevent further potency loss).
