Not really a matter of how tall to grow them. They are judged for picking by the development of the cap and its viel. I believe shrooms should be picked just after the viels breaks. Shrooms can be grown bigtill caps are horizontal or concave but you will get dark spores covering your mushrooms and think that can stunt later flushes to develope.

as soon as i see a few of the veils starting to tare i pick them all, unless there are some realy small shrooms around the bigger ones ill leave them to mature, but you have to be carefull when picking around unmature mushrooms cuz you will destroy the mycilum network around it and they will just die and rot. if after a day or 2 if i dont notice any growth on the little ones ill pick them and dry them out before they rot.. hope that helps ya some

will

i've also noticed that on my biggest one there is a small amount of dark on the stem... it is one tiny mark under the veil and i was wondering if maybe it is just from me playing with it... the veil is about to fall off.. it looks like a small rip... should i be worried?? i should have some pics soon

Sounds like they're ready to pick now. I pick for eating just before the veil tears. For printing, you want to wait until the cap is flat and actively dropping spores.
