All this philosophizing and still no answer to the fundamental question of, "Does spore drop send some kind of signals to slow or stop production of fruits in ajoining cakes?".....or even the mother cake?
The fact that we don't seem to know is as interesting to me as knowing what the mechanism itself might be. It is an important question though as far as anyone who is interested in yield...
I would do an experiment myself except for the fact that I'm a noob and don't know shit.

There are so many variables its gonna be hard to say. Even with lets say an isolate run side by side your gonna have issues narrowing that down. The consesus is yes it has a negative effect but to what degree no one can say. Such an experiment would need to be run several times and with different sets of isolated genetics to really come up with something definitive.

Yeah, I'm totally with you... I'm sure it would be an involved experiment, but god, think of how important this bit of knowledge is. This is something that really does need a definitive answer. I mean this might be very important......particularly to those who are growing on a commercial scale.
Even if it effects the production by only 10% either way........well, that's HUGE percentage to a commercial grower.

I think even deciding on the dependent variable would be a nightmare. It would help to know, but it's pretty far down my list of experiments I want to do because as others have said, there are a couple other really good reasons not to let them sporulate.

I don't know or care. Spores taste terrible.
People get TC tags for different reasons. "trusted" is the key word. It's not that we know everything or are always right. The TC tag is mostly for noobs to know who to give more weight to in a debate on how to get started and TC's mostly tend to only debate about shit that kind of matters.
Once you get to a certain skill level, a TC tag is pretty meaningless. But, if you are beginner, the TC tag has a lot of value.
There are others I feel are better, more knowledgeable, and have more experience than I do. That doesn't take away my ability to help beginners get it figured out though. And that's really what the tag is all about.
So stop all the TC worship and quoting. If you understand what's going on, you should be able to put it in your own words. If you can't put it in your own words or have your own experience to go off of, then you probably don't need to be telling it to people.
Not to anyone in particular.

Most people who grow cubes on a big scale rarely go for more than one, maybe two flushes at most anyway.

agreed, and i believe the tests done which RR talks about probably wasn't even cubes, something to consider

That and knowledge/learning never stops. One example I could give with RR is the with lighting methods for mushroom growth. Type of light,duration,and intensity changed as he even went further.
I still stand by the fact that sporation will not kill the mycelium. Either that or every batch I had that nutted on itself and still grew was the elusive Jesus Christ strain of cubes.
