Here are my first fruit. WBS cased with 50/50+ in 2 8" x 12" baking trays. The first flush yielded 35 dry grams. Does this sound ok?
How does the pinset look? Also looking for any tip/comments?
The second flush:

Amazing! I hope I can grow fruits like that someday.
Really impressive!
Have you ever grown off of rice cakes, or did you just go straight for casing WBS?

Thanks for the kind compliment. 
No I have never done cakes, straight to WBS and casing for me. I am pretty anal about sterility and parameters though.

Very very nice, especially for a first grow.
Congrats 
Also, what strain is that?

Thanks 
The problem is I am not sure what strain it is. Any guesses?
They were grown from an agar petri dish culture kindly donated to me.

Id recommend plastic trays instead of aluminum for health factors.

I agree with the plastic tubs next time. Myc eats the foil meterial, can not be good for the mushrooms. If that was 35 grams then it is a very dense shroom kind. You did a damn fine job for your first grow. 5 shrooms for you and gl with your future grows.

yielding over an oz on your first grow is definitely signs of a job well done.

Awsome first grow. I don't know what kinda shrooms those are but IMO they don't quite look like EQ.

Humidification was by about 3" of perlite. Simple, but worked beautifully.
Any more guesses on the strain? Want to try mexi cubes next grow, would you guys recommend them or not?

Huh, I thought that perlite would keep the fruiting chamber rh too high for a casing. Guess not. Do you live where it is dry or humid?

My mexi cubs just got transfered to FC, ill let you know within a week or so, I'll be casing WBS for them as well as Cake method. Definatly be pictures up next week of my first mexi's so watch for the post, the WBS may be a little longer as it is only 10 days into colonization but they are already almost 75% done.

did you spawn the WBS to something? I thought they wouldn't prvide enough nutrients for any potency.

You can fruit them off of just WBS. Don't let someone tell you that you can't!

Wow, you should write up a journal or something of that sort. Very nice, I'm looking to pull off similiar results with my first grow.

Thats right. these were just WBS cased with 50/50+.
I probably should've done a grow log but too late now. Maybe next time.
