mushroom weight caps or no caps

Hello,

How much weight do you gain by letting the caps fully open before picking compared to just picking them before the veil breaks?  Is it significantly more weight or not really?  I really dont know. I guess I always let mine open up mostly.

I really dislike having to cut wide open caps off in my dehydro, but then again, they all get ground up to powder anyway so looks don't matter all that much, I guess. :shrug:

Once I got going, I stopped caring so much about weight, there's just so damn many of them, I'm picking handfuls every day/other day. I think the last 60 days I've yielded probably 2 dry pounds.

I'd say it's pretty significant.  It isn't just the cap opening that gives you more weight--the whole mushroom keeps growing, but it isn't producing as much psilocybin.  I'd say it's another ten percent or so.
