Is this a good idea?

To pick shrooms when they are really large?
And how large can cubes grow? Are certain strains larger than others?

They can go for 150g wet easy. But it's a pretty rare occurrence ime.
You pick just before the veil tears or a little later after that. A good indication when it's about to tear is when the cap starts to swell real good...

These posts just scream "I'm a noob".
When the veil is broke they're not gonna be getting any bigger.

Because then they're less potent by weight, and probably covered in spores. And if you're willing to make them less potent by weight just so that there's more weight, then that's already more information than anybody needs to know about you and the kinds of things you do.

Yet another example of elitist Shroomery nonsense, m'lord.
Nobody has ever proven that there's any increase/reduction in potency before during or after the veil breaks.
Spores are kind of a drag but they disappear in less than a second when you rinse your fruits with water. If you want to print, harvest before the veil breaks. If not, just let them grow.
Reap as you will and I suspect you won't notice any 0.0001% variance in potency, my friend

Rinse your fruits with water?? Why would you do that? How long do you want it to take to dry exactly?
Good god you're a cringey one.

You don't wash any mushrooms, gourmet or psychoactive, with water.
Because then you'll be running all the active ingredients (medicine) along with the water.

elitist shroomery nonsense? 
there's some finicky processes going on when spores are produced, i'm more surprised you can so blatantly state that inoc is wrong!
when you grow a tubs worth anyway you want fruit quality over quantity.

and any extra weight is prob mainly water and if you are drying your fruits all your doing is making it take longer. not what you want.

That's spores. It's all over all the mushrooms, and the polyfill, and the substrate, which will probably mean there won't be another flush. Also if it's all over that much of everything else it's that much in the air you're breathing. You may not notice it at first but if you make a habit of letting them sporulate near you I'd bet you could develop breathing problems.

Some fungal spores actually do that, but I don't think cubes are one of them.

There's so little known about cubes. According to some reishi spores are fine, but oyster spores can really fuck up your breathing. RR had such bad problems from oysters he could only do them outside after a few years.
I wouldn't trust cubes sporing up too much. I was just out of town for 2 days and came back to that mess
