Yeah man for sure! I definitely like the strain for my first grow! I took a tissue sample from two different fruits and made 2 different liquid cultures so hopefully my next grow will yield more using a liquid culture. Fingers crossed

Hey another update! So I just harvested the cake that blew up as the veils were breaking on the bigger mushies. The other 2 cakes that blew up will still probably take a bit.
  
As you can see they are now in my dehydrator! And in a few days I will have the total dry weight for everyone to see. Thank you for all the nice comments and good luck to any newb starting out or planning on starting! You can do it!! Zoom on!

FINISHED!
So I finished my first time grow today with a third flush picked and dried cracker dry... As promised I would show you my total dried weight! This by no means means that this is what you will get. This is just what I got as a newbie, my first time, with 9 PF Tek jars.
Scale is calibrated, and tared with bowl

MAGIC!

As you can see I got 26.7 grams just about half a gram or so shy of an ounce
Yummy cracker Dry Shroomies

And of course as everyone should do if not planning on consuming dry shrooms right away, put in airtight container, away from light, and somewhere cool such as the fridge

I do hope anyone that followed thoroughly enjoyed this post, I know I enjoyed the whole grow and then doing the write up of the post. Hopefully I inspire some other newbie to join in on the fun. Cuz that really is what it is, a whole lot of fun and a learning experience!
Keep the peace guys and as always SHROOM ON!

Nice work! 
Like PinPorn said, you want the cakes on foil or lids though. He wouldn't tell you that if it wasn't true... good job!

Yeah I do know that. Thing is I got lazy and had no more foil and the lids from the jars weren't washed yet. So it really came down to lazyness of not getting more foil and not washing my jar lids. The next time I will for sure use foil especially cuz next time I will be doing the pf block tek

The tek I used was done by shea25. It's called "pf tek done right" if you search that you'll find it. Very good tek. Very easy to follow and provided me with very good results, followed to a T.... And I don't plan on changing any of my sterility procedures but my next tek will be the pf block tech. Just for more total weight. And I will be using the liquid cultures that I created using two different shroomies from this first grow. So I will post about that then when that gets started.

That is crazy fast

Well it was actually 17 days. 9 days to full outer colonization then 8 days consolidation. But yeah from my research it did seem quite quick. Then again I was told that ksss is the fastest colonizer... So idk

17 days is still pretty fast, even with the size jars you used.
Quickest I've ever had inoculation to fruit was 25 days I believe. Impressive you obviously did something right.

Hahah I have been researching for about 3 years on this sight being a lurker before I attempted this grow... But I used quite a bit of gypsum. I accidentally when I was making my batch poured extra in. Probably like almost 2 full cups... So idk if that had anything to do with it...
