Yes. Is it 99% humid in Florida all the time? No. They can fruit in low humidity. I aim for 85-95%. What your goal is is 99% surface humidity done with misting, then the overall humidity being lower so the surface humidity can evaporate. That's the best way to get a great flush.

A lot more will follow suit if you can get more fae and a few more flushes too fingers crossed :P
Just keep it glistening wet by misting and it will go wild

Congrats on getting some air to those puppies and finally getting some pins. In regards to your post about how your friends got around 600g, IMO freak strike of luck as it's always with these grow kits. Its a hit and miss.
I believe it was big bear who said you won't get as much as you think and with the lack of proper FAE you are not helping the situation either.
You know how plants stretch and become long, white and whispy when they don't have proper amounts of light? Same concept, only the culprit is fresh air. Mushrooms will stretch in an attempt to reach for fresher air. I had also suggested that the pins growing on the plastic was because of lack of FAE. The culprit is lack of FAE.
Hopefully now, with some punctured holes, you may get a decent yield at least it was free right?

That actually makes me wonder.
OP left a good amount of CO2 build up, to the point where it was extremely starved of fresh air.
Now fresh new air suddenly came in.... I'm willing to bet it will now explode and start popping like syphilis

growing progress. there are 2 blue-greenish colored one i guess they are aborts ? i hope they aren't contaminated. is the sideway growing because of still not having enough air? or because they grow toward the light

Hard to say. Some say light some say air. Personally I think both are to play as well as genetics/where it pinned

I don't think they are. My first mushrooms had green caps like that and blew me through the roof. It was an amazing trip so I'd just keep them around.

I think he's experiencing side pinning due to the cake shrinking due to FAE and since it's not on any kind of liner it left space where the mushrooms are growing. Mushrooms grow towards the light, as most of us already know and again since no liner they are just growing where there is space, light and good FAE ? 
One thing's for sure. These mushies are not so dumb haha

Yea its fine, start picking them when the veils are breaking. You don't want them to dump spores on your mycelium while the others are still growing.
