How's it looking?

So with it being my first time, I wish to have a multitude of opinions.
Here's what they look like, all smells nice and good, any visuals anybody doesn't like? Or do they look somewhat normal? Edited for removal of photos

Looks like they need more Fresh Air Exchange. What type of grow area is that?

Indeed it is a greenhouse, hooked up to an ultrasonic. Plastic all around, 5' high 2'deep 3' width. I left the bottom parts of the zipper open for FAE. Should I poke holes in the greenhouse or what would be a good way of getting a constant supply of air exchange?

A Shotgun fruiting chamber would be best for your BRF cake man. Fresh air is one of the main pinning trigger and the SGFC works wonders. Can we see your whole green house setup? I love the idea of a walk in grow chamber.

7 cakes, I'll post a photo very shortly of my whole setup. Totally want advice and opinions on how to make it more effective. Unfortunately I didn't have enough money to go make more and fill up my greenhouse.
But with what I did spend my money on I thought of future expansion use.

You don't have money to make cakes, but you could afford to set up a greenhouse?
It looks nice, but stop wasting your time with cakes. Move on to grains.

Was your greenhouse cheaper than a PC?
PC is purchase #1 or you're doing it wrong.
If your greenhouse was that cheap, please let me know where you got your supplies. I'd like to build one.

I've seen the greenhouse part itself for like 20-30 bucks at big lots, didn't come with a humidifier though.

I love how the advice is to move onto grains so planning on it soon so I will post when I do. But with my setup photos, any recommendations to increase airflow?

A SGFC will give your cakes plenty of FAE.

Lol, the dude has a greenhouse. He doesn't need an SGFC. I don't think it needs more FAE either. If you get fuzzy feet on those stems them worry about that.

Cool, didn't know they were that cheap. I'll definitely be buying one when I get back from my vacation a month from now.

About this time every year they 50 percent clearance those 4 tiers..got both of mine for 15 each.... Sorry mane cakes really do tend to suffer in greenhouses...bulk or edibles work good enough....i ran some cakes in greenhouses the best i could do for them was bottom watering through a soaked dish of vermiculite...other than that the pins wanted to abort...so in the end you might have to try something like that.....yours appear to be doing ok though..nice

Well I'm glad with the positive reviews. Thank you all! Umm but another question now, totally due to my inexperience 
So I just had a partial veil break over night, when and where should I harvest it from. If anybody wouldn't mind Photoshopping a red line where I should cut. Or just a good description with my photo as reference.
Thanks so much guys and gals so excited for my first harvest to come in.

Harvest it now IMO. Cut as close to the cake as you can but i would harvest both those guys since they are attached. just to make things simple since its the first grow for you.
also since its a first grow id take a print!! its uber easy even for newbies. the first time i took a print all i did was.. tin foil.. cut the cap off. removing as much stem as you can(use gloves) put cap on foil gill side down(duh) put a glass or whatever over cap to cover it. after while put foil w/print in a zip lock.
please use all the sterile practices.. wiping with alc and using SAB. although my first print was on my book shelf but it was contam free! read up on cloning and pastys agar tek. uber easy
please dont flame for such a lame print tek but its not a tek just something that worked for me.
