I've noticed that a lot of the condensation has actually traveled down the walls of my tub and underneath the liner. The whole cake is basically floating in there, lol. Is that something to worry about? I assume it woulda been ideal to have that moisture reabsorbed by the substrate. Or is this maybe an indication that I had too much moisture to begin with? I'm thinkin maybe next time I should cut small holes in the corners of the liner to let water back in.

And my controller screwed up and my Shroom room went down to 65 overnight. Hope that's not too big of an issue. Back to 71° average.
I'm getting lots of little clusters, but my pinset was not remotely even. What can I do to improve this? Better mixing of the grain with the sub? I also assume I should just pull them off as they finish, since they're all gonna be done at different times? Hoping the second flush comes out more even.

I cut a few out that finished early, and there's still more in the tub finishing up, but this is my first big haul! I'm pleased. Will pins stop coming up when it's ready for more water? Or should I just choose a day to pull everything regardless of how finished they are and rehydrate?

Thanks! Right now, they just keep rolling out. I pick more every twelve hours, but no signs of slowing down.

Is it normal for the second flush to have way bigger mushrooms? My first batch had all the veils tear when they were still really short. This one right here is bigger than anything I grew last flush and I think that I even pulled it a little early. 10g wet. Is this too early to pull? That ruffley area around the edge of the cap tricked my eyes a little. Didn't realize how solid the veil was until I pulled it out.

I would have let that one go a little longer  Yes it is normal to get larger mushrooms after the first flush. Iv had huge 100 gram monsters grow on the third or fourth flushes.

Hundred gram!? Holy crap lol. And thanks, I'll let them go a little longer. I only pulled the one and then second guessed after seeing the veil up close.

Let them go another day...wow! It's not 100 grams, but it's the biggest one yet. 17g wet. I still can't even imagine what a 100g mushrooms looks like, lol. Harvesting a few big ones is so much easier than a million small ones.
