Harvesting Panelous Cyanescens

Hi all..
Just started growing some Pan Cyans for the first time and they're going pretty well.. Thing is, the mushrooms seem to be growing at different rates, some are real small, others large.
With Cubensis it's easy to know when to harvest from what I've read, just wait for the cap to separate from the coll(lower ring)..
However, with the Pan Cyans there doesnt seem to be any coll ring, only the cap. Is that normal? So when's the best time to harvest? Some of the caps on the bigger ones are beginning to turn upward and the colour changing from whitish grey to a lightish brown. Is it time to pluck these?
Appreciate the help.

Once the caps open and start to turn up is a good time.
I recommend if you have large enough caps to print them. A lot of the time its hard to get viable prints from Panaeolus cyanescens.
Have fun with them too...they are just amazing. Just be sure not to eat too much

Pans dont have a veil.... Sporulation starts as the caps turn spotty. That is the time to print.
Here is a pic of the caps for ya... Start printing when they look like this.

Thanks guys! That really helped, especially with the photos Ralphster.. And those black areas are spores from the higher cap?
Angryshroom, I intend to make some prints.. Have been surfing around and Pan Cyan prints n syringes seem a rarity...

Keep the spore print very very sterile of course.
