Tell me about your grow logs?

I'm a long time lurker, first time grower and now, first time poster. I'm on my second flush and I've gotten about 150g wet so far and I'm already loving this hobby. First I want to say a big thanks to everyone on this forum, I couldn't have done this without the information you've made available. This is a great resource.
I've been homebrewing for a lot of years now, and I see some similarities between these processes. Keeping a detailed beer-journal has helped to make me a better brewer and pay attention to details while I'm brewing as well as after, and also pick up on things that I would otherwise miss. In that hobby, i've found a good level of detail, but it has taken some time. So I want to ask you - How many of you keep a grow journal, and at what level of detail? During the first flush, I kept a fairly detailed daily log and measured the wet weight, number of mushrooms harvested, time of day, etc - if you're not laughing at me already then you're a more hopeless wanna-be scientist than me
This couldn't keep up steam, of course, so I let it drop. I think that's okay, I'm not sure I would gain anything from that level of detail, and it's likely to burn me out. That said, I still think notes are important, and I'm curious to know the things you keep track of.

Pictures tell more of a story than I'm willing to generally, so when I produce a grow log, it has plenty of photos. I used to be very much into writing, but now I try to keep things on a need to know basis. Good, straight to the point information. If you would want to know, chances are, so will your target audience.
Oh, and welcome to shroomery, officially

thanks for your reply Sorry for confusion, I don't mean producing a grow log for others (I'm don't know enough to try to teach anyone else yet!) - I meant more for my own tracking so I can fine tune things as I go.
I'm just wondering what are the important factors to track - for example, length of time to pin? length of time from pin to harvest? or doesn't any of that really matter and I should focus on other things?

Inoculation date, first signs of mycelium, time it takes to colonize, substrates, fruiting methods, possibly even detailed specifications of your fruiting chamber and yeah, pins, growths, mutants, ect. Whatever strikes your interest really.
