Sounds good nube. Now that I know I am actually capable of growing something I will start to work towards getting better genetics.
Here are some updated photos. Fruits are on smaller side but I'm very happy. First ever grow, started from agar and actually managed fruits.
What a fucking feeling
Thanks to this forum for all your teachings along the way. A little personal note, I have been experiencing severe OCD in recent times. The time it took to get to this stage was IMENSE. But I'm here and I'm happy. Shrooms are one of the only things which I have found which give me relief, so this was much more than just a hobby for me. I look forward to experiencing my new friends and wish everyone well on their own journies.

I would say that the small size is genetics. The best option is to try to grow out a different variety. I wouldn't clone any of these because there isn't anything big enough to keep around.
Those mouldy looking fruits were just drying out a bit on the cap.
How do you use shrooms to treat OCD? do you take one big dose periodically or smaller doses more frequently?

Looks great for a first attempt. Dealt with alot of side pins myself but that doesn't make them any less active.
Enjoy!

Thanks guys, happy to hear it's likely genetics and not something I messed up with my grow.
I actually have been lucky enough to receive a print from Bodhista so that is what I will grow out next.
I am microdosing for the OCD, and sometimes a little upwards of a microdose. Basically it helps me cope day to day, makes me a lot more present etc so I can keep up with normal day activities and work on all the other ways I am trying to treat OCD.
I have read basically everything there is to read on larger doses and OCD. There is some really good anecdotal evidence around online. I will attempt a proper large does in time but have to be a little careful as I have some serious drug anxiety from past experiences (overdosing on ecstacy which was a big catalyst for the emergence of my mental health problems)

U could try toing a Ms grow to find the genetics u want to clone from. Just do a small Ms grow, like 1 qt. Then clone the biggest cluster on agar and hopefully u never see small fruits again.

I don't know how many transfers were done, but unless it was quite a few then there was no real isolation done anyway. In which case, it's still MS and so many strains went into the grow anyway

What i meant to say was do multiple small ms grows to fine the genetics u want

From memory think I did a couple of transfers from the initial plate, actually maybe it was only one 
Now that I have the confidence I will for sure do the reading to get some nice genetics in future.

Well small shrooms arent bad man. Sometimes the overall yeild is about the same even tho the size is different. Smaller=more shrooms bigger=less shrooms. Sometimes. BE is more what u want to watch for. Read up on it. Bioefficiency
Check this out. This is just ms from a homemade syringe. But there is something up with this tub, high amount of mutants.

Oh Man so stoked with your success so far!
Go to agar again with MS and try out for some bigger fruit OR if you still have some fresh caps/stems then take a core sample to agar and get your first clone going as fuck it ... why not. a tub of little stumpies would look cool and as mentioned before, check the BE and potency before feeling like you need to always aim for monsters.
Shoeboxes are where its at for testing things out. 12L clear boxes from the Warehouse ($6bucks) work well but I think next round I am going to mod a few with some air holes as using unmodded is just not getting nuff FAE.
a 1L jar of grain to the 12L box has been working well and gives room to fruit in box or for big fuckers you can double tub. I tired a few 12l bins with 2l of spawn but didn't really notice much gains over the other single jar bins.
Once again big ups for your first fruit!

Cheers nube and capmuncher
My second flush came in strong so that was nice. Got a few grain jars going so will get another tub of same genetics going. Then going to have a little break from it and come back fresh to start with agar again and try some new genetics
