so, now i have done these other prints. they have been printing for 36hours now. I looked at one last night before bed(which wouldve been right around 24-26 hours of printing) and the prints look sorta thin... at least they printed this time, but some are really thin/light, instead of thick and dark like the first one i did.
here is the setup:

they are just in my SAB, on PC'd foil.
The big one from this fruit:

was sat on some foil for a pre-print for like 3 hours(so that the actual print would be as sterile as possible), and when i switched it to the foil for the real print, it had already made a pretty nice and dark print.. do bigger caps drop more spores? i mean i know they drop more spores as the circumference is larger, and whatnot, but do they usually make darker prints than smaller caps? or could it just be the genetics? i am still going to do a giveaway, but i am worried that people might be disappointed that they arent super dark and stuff =[
as you can see, i took the advice, and didnt put glasses or anything on top of them.. just in my SAB. which did make these actually drop spores, but i am just wondering if now, it must be genetics that is making the prints not be super dark.
also, in the future, should i just not do the whole pre-print thing? does it really make much of a difference? because i know they prints would be a little darker if i had just did the actual prints from the very beginning...
also, do the caps drop more spores if you harvest them right as the veil is breaking, or if you let them sit a few to 12 more hours after the veil breaks? the reason i ask is because the very first print i did, the fruit was harvested right as the veil was breaking. with all since then, they were harvested a litle while after that..
thanks everyone! look out in AMU for my giveaway if you want a print!
i will only have like 8 or so to give, so sorry it isnt more.

sorry to double post, but i have an update:
So i just removed the caps from the foils, and have determined that it MUST be a genetic reason for little to no spores being dropped..
 
That was 36 hours for those.. nut this is the reason i really think it must be genetics, my big cap and two other medium sized caps from the same cake all sat for 12 hours and did this:
 
12 hours.. and way darker. and they were left in the exact same conditions, right beside the others. so it's gotta be genetic, right?
so since, those were such a fail, i dont know if i should even give even the 2 best from those out.. i mean, no right? luckily since the other 3 are doing so well, i just switched them to new foil, to take a second print, and if the second prints are as dark as the first after 12 hours, i will try for a third. if not, then ill just leave them for 24 hours and give out 5, keep one big one, and then give out my very first print with them, to make a total of 6 good prints. and then 3 swabs. or i can cut the swabs in half(two tips) and do 6.
meeehhhh.. im so sorry everyone who was wanting a print. i will be giving the two who asked already, the best prints. and then trying to do a small giveaway. you guys dont think i should give any of the super light ones away, right? that would prolly be an asshole move, huh? i mean ill keep them, if not. there are still spores on them, that can definitely be used..
i have definitely learned my lesson, though, and wont be announcing a giveaway before the prints are taken heh... i just didn't foresee this happening. at least i didnt make the thread in AMU for the giveaway, yet.. oh well, live and learn.
