hey guys, so im on my 3rd grow using simple brf tek. now im growing transkei so i know they print very well. i let my flush sit for a day or so until there was black spores over everything. i mean they were definitely dropping. so i picked a couple on the top and sterlized some foil and let them sit on the foil for 36 hrs under a little drinking glass i have. now i know they were dropping spores but for some reason the foil was completely clean? the caps were also very black and really dead looking. heres some pics ill post in a sec. also just to note, the cap was very wet. the glass that i covered it with was wiped down with ipa, and also i did not dry the cap at all. i dont see how the alcohol could have made it wet since it dries so fast. should i have maybe dried off the cap before printing?

You waited until the spores had already dropped. You can pick them before the veil even breaks, break the veil yourself, and the spores will still drop when it's time. If you wait until they've already done the deed, well...

also foil is sterile off the roll, no need to sterilize foil unless you finger fucked it too much or something.

not enough moisture but goes to show how unimportant humidity and how much more important FAE is. cracked caps big deal at least it isn't small shitty ones
that's why they didn't print well either, the mushrooms need to be more juicy and pick them a bit sooner. wrap a glass in foil and sterilize it then put your cap on foil and the glass over the top so you don't have to fuck around with alcohol or sanitizers
