Just harvested my first flush from my first grow

I don't know if this belongs here, but I don't know where else to post.
So far I have 20g wet in 4 shrooms. There are 3 more shrooms on the cake with their veils about to be broken and I expect them to be ready by tonight. All in all, I expect something about 30gs in 7 shrooms. I'm saying all this because nowhere else have I found such information about an ideal grow. Of course my shit is not even close to ideal, but is this a decent harvest at least?
Also, I'm gonna have to throw out this cake because it has some green mold on it. Is there really no point in going for another flush? The mycelium seems pretty healthy. Won't it still fruit even though it's fighting a battle with the fucking mold?
Next. After harvesting, I washed them with water to get rid of the fuzzy feet and verm stuck on them. I plan on eating these wet. I tasted a small bite and it was not the worst, so I am confident of chomping down 30gs of this fungus. However, I just tripped on LSD this weekend, so I'll have to wait a week more. I have stored them in a non-airtight container in the refrigerator. That ok? All accounts on shroomery say it should keep for a week. Any better ideas?
And finally, can anyone share their experiences with eating so many wet shrooms? 30gs wet should give me a pretty decent trip, right? What about my stomach? Am I gonna be cramping or puking my guts out as the mushroom goddess appears? Any tips for making it easy on my gut? Lemon Tek wet shrooms? Shroomery has a recipe for wet shrooms tea, but it feels as though potency will take a hit if I do that.

Green mold is ruining your chances of future grows being successful so if that's worth it to you for another 10g wet of mushrooms then I guess go for it. I would toss it the instant I saw a speck of green. Or at least put it outside or something.
Do not ever wash freshly harvested fruits in water, you're completely ruining the drying time and increasing the amount of oxidation, on top of throwing off the dry/wet weight scale. Fuzzy feet is not something you need to remove.
If you washed them with water before you weighed them, then you probably don't even have a proper 20-30g, due to all the water weight. Eating mushrooms that have been wet for a week might very well make you blow chunks too.
No offense but I'm betting by the time you're through with them, these will be some butt-ugly mushrooms.

Damn.
Seems like I should just dry them. Toss the cake out too.
And btw, I weighed them before and after washing. It showed up around 19 both times. I dried them with a paper towel before weighing though.

Due to genetics it's hard to say how potent they will be, but 30g fresh should be a pretty good trip, almost an eighth dried. Half that would be good for me but I'm a lightweight.
Keeping them an air tight container is a really bad idea, they could rot. Either dry them immediately or wrap in a paper towel and put them in the crisper drawer in your refrigerator. Some people will say there is potential reduction in potency and you are better off drying right away, but in my experience the difference from one week isn't noticible. Besides they are much better fresh! Your mileage may vary. Good luck and enjoy!

I decided to just dry them out. Don't want to risk them going bad in the fridge in a week. In fact, I might just eat these this weekend. Any ideas how badly a 250ug acid trip from last Friday would affect me?

Everyone is different, but after a week it probably won't effect your tolerance unless you do it often. I have eaten shrooms once a week with no noticible tolerance, and Lsd should be the same in that respect.

I had some 'cid Sunday night and had 49g of wet cubes this morning for breakfast and didn't seem to lose anything on the exchange. YMMV
