Some bottles. Will be making more prints.

Had weird one busting out of his own skin. Anyone else see something like this?

My tub the other day had a couple like that, along with a lot of bumpy PE looking stems.
Natalensis loves to shred itself too.

Nice!
As for the busting one, that's totally normal. I have it all the time with Semp. Nichrome said it was especially true for clones.

I have yes, one of the bags I had running produced a handful of fruits with thick necks not really bursted like this one, but just all wrinkled and gnarly looking.. just the top.. rest of the stipe was fine.. no idea what caused it, as I had 2 other bags ride beside it producing fruits just fine:

Who has experience with fresh dosage vs dried?
Are Semps similar to cubes: 1g dried ~=~ 10g fresh?
I'm going to harvest a few of these darker ones tomorrow and try them out. This is a different line of genetics than I've tried before, potentially stronger. 
What started as a pretty sparse canopy ended up turning into a really great flush, it just didn't come in very uniformly. I'm starting to get it dialed in, next one hopefully times a little more evenly!

Yes, unless you have misted them a lot/recently.

I believe mine dried down to about 7.5-8% of fresh weight.

Thank you Melgo this plate is three weeks old

Yes, 8-10% dry weight. But IME fresh semps pack more of a punch vs dry fruits compared to cubes. .7g dry was a chill, lovely time. 7g wet was a lot. 9g wet was borderline overwhelming

Man, that's mad! <3 What's the agar recipe, and who did you get the culture from?
The smallest pins look like they formed after the big mushroom matured and they are feeding on it, is it so?

The mature fruit is another plate pin transferred from the germ plate. I think there’s only one growing directly off of it but it’s kinda cool that all of the pins are right next to it vs all over the plate. My agar is 500 ml grain water + .5g nutritional yeast
I bought mine from (Arizona desert) spores. waited like 3 months trying to catch a giveaway before I bit the bullet my attempts have been all over the place though. Only recently have I lucked out in selecting cultures that want to give me mushrooms

Yes, fresh Semp are stronger than dried ones. The fresh ones have the extra kick, mentally, visually and physically.

Would someone be willing to quickly summarize the best approach?
Sounds like a substrate on the dryer side/squeezed to field capacity, and lower FAE like in a monotub is best.
Given the low FAE requirement, is it still the standard fan/mist/high FAE to initiate pinning? Or is it more just put it in the FC and in 2-6 weeks you see pins eventually?

Moopers and Melgo have great info.
Melgo’s semp tek
Moopers’ semp info
I’ve been trying a few different approaches. My favorite is inoculating bags with a bit of grain spawn and sealing them up until 100% colonization. I open the bag, case with 50:50 mix, and put it in a tub. Wait. I don’t fan or mist until pins. After growth I mist twice a day to keep the caps from curling up. Seems to help getting prints from them, although they are not the easiest to print.

Dude, you're killing it! Superb fruits! Look at these caps?! They look huge!

Last year when straight casing fulling colonized grain, I got pins 9 days after casing. Is it the same for you?

Very interesting! I’m going to up the misting & FAE on this next shoebox & see how the caps turn out
