Should i birth *UPDATE*

Hello,
I don't have a macro lens so i can't get pictures that turn out well.
i did the PF tek and let the jars consolidate for 4-5 days now and i'm starting see knots, they showed up this morning.
should i brith and dunk and roll now or wait until the knots show signs of the cap?
this is my first grow in years, i have searched and i couldn't really get a clear answer so i appreciate your indulgence

so i birth as suggested, i do not have a RH meter, but i fan a few times a day and mist as needed.
these cakes seem to be getting rather fuzzy, i assume that is a sign of too much humidity?
what i think are knots(small white balls) seem to have a boarder around their general area but i am concerned the fuzz will take over the knots.

You can't have too much humidity and it sounds perfectly normal keep it up

get a scale dude. so you can properly dose and its useful in the kitchen also
this one appears to be the official shroomery scale. seems like everyone has this model.

Yea scales are great for so many applications.
Try some agar next if you can. I’m kinda like obsessed with it at the moment.
Your cakes like nice by the way. Hope you have a fan/dehydrator for quick dryness

i ate 1.2 grams before i dive into the 3+gram range to get my feet wet again after about a year of not eating any mushrooms, i did do some L a few moths ago however. But i would consider my tolerance at zero.
it was very pleasant, light visuals and overall a very positive mind set.
good times overall, i feel like im ready for next weekend.
I had a very rough trip many years ago 5+ years ago so im always a little gun shy when trying new fungus.
but im in the school of thought that you can always take more at another time.

At what point did you take the remaining 3?
I am curious about the double dose
