Very uneven b+ maturation *PICS*

I guess this will be the last thread I create for some time, anyway
 5 of the bigger shrooms have torn their veil, though other pins around them are still very small.
 here is one problematic cluster, one "double" shroom mutant has a hole in the middle of its cap, like a gunshot wound, what's that about?
 and this is the most problematic cluster of them all, look, there is a small undeveloped pin that has no veil whatsoever (just below the big stem). How do I go about now? Do I remove the mature fruits? Or should I just pick everything, eat it all at once, and dunk the cakes for a second flush?

Look at the last pic, If I pick the big mushroom, will it mess up the little ones?

if your careful you can avoid ripping the smaller ones off to but thats just the sacrifice you gotta make when growing mushrooms sometimes

any advice how to store the freshly picked ones for consumption 2 days later? I can sun dry them, but I think I would prefer them fresh (thinking about the potency loss)

in a paper bag in the fridge im pretty sure the'll still lose some potency but probably still be stronger than dry.

Yea a paper bag or tin foil in the refrigerator will be good for few days. Dont sun dry them i believe they loose potency that way. I dry my in a shoe box put on top of a net (so there is air below them) and a pc fan blowing at them.

 thanks guys, here is my first harvest then. Would this even remotely be a trip if I ate them all? (that is the bigger bic lighter)
I've left the other pins to hopefully start maturing

well damn, I guess I'll lemon tek them (although I much prefer duration over strength). It's a SGFB (shotgun fruiting bucket) I fan about 20 times a day, at night I leave the ultrasonic humidifier pumping cold vapor and forcing the co2 out every 3 hours for 30 minutes.

just eat them lemon tek isnt worth it imo. That ammount you picked looks about 2-3 grams dry so your gonna trip sac for sure youre gonna love it probably no hallucinations at that level though.

It was actually underwhelming. I'm probably quite tolerant to psychedelics. even though the first time I ate only 10g's of galindoli truffles, this time eating 20+ g's of fresh cubes really only barely made me trip, the peak lasted about an hour, and the trip was over in about 4 hours. very little visuals, mostly just a weird body high. I guess I'll have to take a few months break, or try upping the dose and eating about 6g's dry

yea no break needed for shroomies maybe a week or two but like i said youd probably have to eat what you did plus what was on the rest of the cakes for a full experience

I absolutely would not recommend jumping from like 2 dry grams to 6. I recently did aroubd 4.25g dry (most I've ever done) and it was overwhelming and at points pretty scary. I won't be doing a dose that high again for a while. dobt ruin tripping for urself by taken a retarded strong dose without much experience and then having a horrifying experience u can't bounce back from. Just my 2 cents. There's a bunch of threads on the forum of inexperienced people taking level 5 doses and having the worst experiences of their life (like thinking that you are dead for 4 hours and other pretty scary stuff).
I don't think I'd be able to experience a bad trip, so perhaps I want to prove myself wrong. The best thoughts that always guide me, are that nobody has ever died from shrooms, that I made them myself and I know they are pure/ecological. And also the fact that I'm not afraid of death :p I mean I took a huge amount of lsd for the first time, ended up alone in a small forest at night in a thunderstorm (don't ask, I wanted to go see the city from a beautiful vantage point) and all I could see was those retarded "awesome smiley" faces. Worst thing from that night was the fact that I forgot my headphones. Feeling brave I guess. I'll do a trip report xD

The wet weight of that harvest was actually 45 grams. I spit it with a friend. He later got paranoid, his head started to hurt, his stomach started to hurt. What a pussy, I got fucking tired of making him feel better and being comforting and just went my own ways. My other friend ate 25i, he was calm, but was constantly reminding me to not eat any more shrooms, not to drink more beer and not to smoke more weed because I looked fucked up. I know how I feel, I'm always in control, if at any point I feel like I'm loosing grip with reality, I just sit down. close my eyes and turn on some calm music (like mister lies - false astronomy) and 5 minutes later I'm back. from now on I'll just trip alone.

Yea I realize everyone is different but I mean there is a dosage calculator on the forums for a reason. Most people fall with a window of how strongly the actives will effect them which is why we are able to suggest dosages to others to get desired effects. I also would wager you have a lot more experience than me. I've tripped 10 or 11 times. I would also be surprised if when u first started tripping you were taking 6 - 10g but I could be completely wrong there. My only point was there are plenty of posts around the forum of people who took 2g their first time, weren't satisfied and then tripled their dose and had a really bad time. I've steadily increased dosage by .5g increments until I got to my highest range and was glad I didn't do 3g my first time and then just double it. Others may disagree but I was just offering some friendly advice that mayb OP should do some research or get some more experience before jumping to a very high dose and possibly having a scarring experience. But whatever floats your boat, what do I care. Just my 2 cents.
Well I tried tripping on a moderate dose of 25i with about 2g's of shroomies a few months back, and really it was underwhelming too :/ I may just have a high tolerance to these things. Well good thing I'll be setting up monotubes to keep me supplied constantly
