Im a small scale mushroom grower. At the moment I grow 3015 oyster and chestnut on 40% soyhull and 60% sawdust both in pellet form. 55% water in 5 pounds bag. Shout out to Shroomsis101 and seagu for their help with my drum sterilizer 
I grow in a carport, my humidification device is an aquafog linked to an Inkbird humidity controller set at 90%.
Ive worked last summer in a small scale gourmet mushrooms where Ive grown quite a bit of Pohu oyster and white pearl oyster but I wasnt able and still cant get pornographic 1st flushes like this earth angels guy or What the fungus guys, check em out if you dont know them yet.
What I get is this

I wonder if my spawning ratio could be the cause in the same way that over supplemented shitake block will form mutants. I use 1 quart per 5 pounds bag I know in the books they say to use way less. It takes about 13 days for a bag to colonize. I know Shroomsis101 uses 4 oz per bags.
I know its really high. I know I got to get my production flow smoother, I fear of not having enough spawn and calculate loss... but the happy problem is that I dont lose any spawn to contams, so I have alot of colonized and not enough space to store it.
What are your to get 2 pounds flushes ?

Go 50/50 on soy/HWFP. Pics look like you need better FAE. And they just haven't grown long enough.... are they first flush pics or 2nd flush pics? I average between 1.25-2 lbs first flush. Some of it depends on how long I let them grow. Which I have to pull the bigger ones sooner rather than later or they fall off.

Yes. I am using 5 lb bags for now. Though I do plan on going with the bigger bags eventually. The 2nd pic looks like you peel the bags back instead of making a small X or square or long slice across the bag? That will not keep your clusters tight and together.

Youre right, thats because there were a lot of pins underneath. I usually make an X slit on the bag or a /

Maybe its just me.. but I don't bother making extra openings. Maybe clean them off, if that. I don't seem to have much of an issue with it. Sure sometimes I will get clusters out the bottom but. pick toss n go..

I think Ill start making the slice at the bottom of the bag and flippin it upside down while keeping the bag tight to prevent side pins. Id like to get a minimum of 500gr per 5# blocks first flush for god sake cmon

Even when I make the slice on the side of the bag near the bottom I don't have much of an issue. Try to keep it tight, the same as I would if trying to top fruit from the bottom or side. And even if the bag lifts up a little I just get a big mass of mycellium and the mushrooms poke out the slit as normal. But I am side fruiting so my air circulation setup may contribute to that as I have the fan blowing directly across all the slits in all the bags. So that no air is able to congregate around the bag where the mushrooms are growing from to get stipey.
