Picked my first 2 fruits ever!
    #24275823 - 04/27/17 12:11 PM (7 years, 8 months ago)

2 fruits on my first grow ever were leading the charge and I decided to cut them, as one had started dropping spores.

The veils had broken way early on these guys as I'm still dialing in moisture/misting procedures, but they continued to grow with the veil broken so I let them keep going for a while.

I weighed the 2 together wet, for a total of 10g.

I know fruit sizes are toooootally variable based on genetics, growing method, environment, but I'm just wondering where those might fit on the spectrum!

Ps these are growing from PF cakes in a SGFC

attached is a pic right before I cut them- feel free to critique setup, as always.  (Double stacks were due to lack of proper tub size for 20 cakes)



Also, huge thanks to all of you who've provided help thus far!

You'll get a lot more fruits if you get your cakes out of the Sahara desert climate.

These are either B+ or costa rica, I used both and lost track of which cake was which lol 

Tbh i forget exactly when pins occured but I birthed them on April 18th, and they were pinning maybe 3-5 days later

Blunt lol.  To be fair im still trying to find a balance.  I initially got "need more moisture" feedback, then I went crazy with misting and bottom watering to the point of "stop choking your shrooms with water".  So I'm still calibrating lol.  Everything in moderation, I suppose

If I were guessing though, I'd say your SGFC could use another bag of perlite.

Often people just use one bag in SGFC and I used  To have great PF cakes and used two bags.

Alright well funny enough, when I went to Home Depot, all that had was one GIANT bag of perlite. What you see there is maybe 1/3 of the bag. I will add more when I get home tonight!
