Hell yeah brother! Peep the first flush below 

I left the juvenile and the cluster for now. Veil is just starting to stretch, so I'll give it another day or so and grab em. That cluster is gonna make a realllll nice tea.
I used a blade to slice as close to substrate as I could. Should I have left those..stumps? Wasn't sure if I should try to remove them or leave em be.
I'm excited to see how my more efficiently modified tub performs

Quick question though...
What temp and for how long do y'all dehydrate your cubes for?
I read something like 95 degrees for 12ish hours? Then reddit cubes all saying they run it like 160 degrees for 4ish hours?
Don't wanna lose any potency if I don't need to. Right now I got those at about 100 degrees with timers to check on em every few hours

Highest setting on the dehydrator for 12-24 hours. No less than 12, ever.
Dont listen to reddit mate, lots of bad practices going on there.
You wont lose potentcy from the heat. The quicker you dry them the better. The highest setting isnt gonna hurt them, people cook and boil them all the time w no issues. You will lose potentcy the longer they're wet though

the time varies on the amount youβre drying, how thick they are, what your dehydrator is like & what setting is itβs max etc. usually 12 hours is the minimum iβll dry. you just want them to be absolutely cracker dry after they cool off. max temps will make that happen faster. like ashtray said, heat isnβt a concern until youβre hitting like 350f

Not familiar with the brand but they all work pretty much the same. Mine goes to 160 too.
Oh yea, reddit is a cesspool for mycology info, along w YouTube
As was said just make sure they're cracker dry when u take them out. Store them in an airtight container, mason jars work well, and keep in a dark cool place. Light will degrade psilocybn and is often overlooked so keep that in mind

i think that nesco is like the circular presto dehydrators. my old one worked great, but i got tired of having to do multiple runs once i started growing more bulk.

Nesco also has square tray models (FD80/FD85) - these have a lot more capacity than the round versions.

ooh yeah, i have an excalibur 9 tray now thatβs sick as fuck. i love the rectangular dehydrators. the presto did itβs job, but iβm definitely glad i upgraded. i also make a lot of dehydrated apples & itβs killer for doing huge batches of those

It's pretty much the same design as the presto one. Wanna get one with clear sides on the trays. That way I don't have to open it as much to check on em. I dozed off and they got a tiny bit drier than I intended but still good. I'll let you guys know how they are ..wish me luck lol

Hey guys! Just a lil update..second flush wasn't super successful, but! My other, more modified tub seems to be doing pretty dang good

I've tried counting twice and there's approx 70 or so pins popping. I'm like completely beside myself right now..
Would the clustering of my pins across the substrate have anything to do with how evenly the grain spawn is spread? Or is that just the way she goes
Also, ignore the hacked ass liner lol

Big thanks on the heads up reminder about surface conditions. Ended up down a rabbit hole of learning for a while one night. I think I understand things a lot better now. Got a real nice looking canopy in the works on this next tub...lmk what ya think. That spot of dirt just always looks dry, I even put a couple direct droplets on the spot and it's hydrophobic, so idk lol

I got a nice mister now and I've kept the lid cracked often on this one to see if I can reduce the amount of fuzz on the legs the first tub had. Read that that's usually fixable with better fae and seems legit so far lol
