Why so small? Time to harvest?!?

Hey all,
This my first grow. BRF cakes. KSSS spores. Everything has been going well but they guys are tiny and it looks like the veil is tearing. Is there something wrong, or just genetics? Right when I birthed them the temps dropped into the 60s for about a week but it warmed back up and they have been in in the 70's for the last week. 2 weeks in fruiting chamber total.
Thanks guys, let me know.

I dont know much bout growing mushrooms, but I can tell u I got the same results when I grew ksss. I think I got some bigger ones off the second flush.

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Could be genetics. Have you dunked the cakes prior to birthing? From the pic, the cakes and perlite look really dry. Have you been misting and fanning?
The hole placement in the FC is really close together which can drop your RH.

Yes to dunking after i birthed them.
I have been misting 2-3 times a day. Maybe not enough when i do it tho? How wet should stuff be when I mist?
The holes are a little too close together so I went through and taped a bunch of them up to raise RH.
Seems a lot of ppl have had similar results with the KSSS. Do you think I should harvest more?
Thanks

Ksss puts out shrooms like that. Entirely genetic. You didn't do anything wrong from the looks of it. Enjoy your little babies!

Damp
Glistening with moisture
Verm has it's on sparkle because of some of the smoothe surfaces of the little bits. But we mean the glistening from the water itself.
Mist cakes directly until they glisten with moisture. When it's not glistening anymore, but still appears damp, you can mist again. You can even let the verm dry a little and some people actually prefer that. Only fan right after misting, if at all, and only a couple of passes with the lid is all it takes. The fanning is mostly to remove any old air and some argue not really even needed because the SGFC is constantly replacing the air.
No need to roll after the 1st flush.
