Need some clarification and help (PICS)

Hey well here are some pics of two of my six pf cakes. They are PES Hawaiian.
They did this in the span of two nights...can not wait to pick the first flush.

This one was about a half an inch last night and today its huge.



But just wanted to make sure they are looking good. The veils are broken on them already...but its not a humidity issue so much as i think they are just growing really fast. Thoughts?

This is my PMP setup.

I have a desk lamp with a 15w blue bulb (kind used for fish tanks) above the PMP. Its about 12 inches from the lid.

The goofy ass one looks pretty good...it looks so strange because the cap is BARELY holding onto the stem...i even though about breaking it so the shroom could grow without that restricting it..but left it alone.

Anyone have experience like this with PES Hawaiian?

I need some help people....
The stems are getting nice and fat but all the caps are split like that and they are all pretty small in comparision to the stem.


Are my shrooms ok?
Some caps are still connected half way, is that okay for them to grow like that?

And that big weird one in the pic, it looks about the same size...so should i pick it? or let it keep going...the rest of the pins and mushrooms are still growing though.

looks like from the first set of pics you have some fat ass's lol this is mainly caused by poor air exchange..the caps are splitting prolly due to low humidity.whats your humidity in there ? with cakes i always had humidity at 100 all the time.other than that they are fine and can be picked whenever i picked em as they mature with cakes so as soon as the viel broke off into the dehydrator they would go

Poor air exchange causes long skinny stems, not fat asses. Your cakes look too dry and that's why the mushrooms are very small. When the caps are fully open, they're ready to pick and won't get larger, so pick those, even though they're tiny.

Do a 24 hour dunk, followed by a roll in dry verm to give you a casing layer over the entire cake for the next flush. If it doesn't improve the product, then you have a bunk strain.

The cakes were dunked right after birthing for 12 hours btw and rolled in dry vermiculite. and the humidity for the first week was WAY too high..and almost killed all my cakes.

So it would seem like they would still have that water retained..but maybe not..crazy nature.

Maybe roll and then wet the vermiculite so they can have that moisture?

That's what you're supposed to do. You don't leave the verm dry or it sucks all the water out of the cake. We only roll in dry verm because wet verm won't stick to the cake.

You should dunk for 24 hours, not 12, then rinse the cake under the faucet and roll the soaking wet cake in dry verm. Once placed into the terrarium, you then mist the cake several times over the first few hours to slowly hydrate the vermiculite. That's how dunk and roll works. If you left the verm dry, there's the answer to your problem.

Also, it's impossible to have too high a humidity with cakes. They do best at 99% to 100% humidity. That's why terrariums with several inches of well drained perlite works best. Good luck.

I thought even with cakes ...that if you had the RH at a constant 100% you will end up with fat asses. Ive always dropped my RH to 85 to 90% when fruiting cakes....seems like no one can ever agree on some straight hard facts. It does look like a crappy Pinset probally brought on by low humidity along with dry ass cakes and FAE. I'm having a similar problem with my current set of cakes....but they are not deformed like that...I think its just all the factors you got going on.

RR that is what I did actually when they were dunked was spray them afterwards.

No lysol was used btw. I picked the weird ones today.

Here are my new pics. I think i might have things under control for the moment.

This is what is left on the cake i picked from...should i pick it off? I can not tell if its doing anything anymore.

And here is the picked stuff.



And here are my other cakes



What happens when the veil breaks all the way on this big one...but all the little ones are attached to it.



Sorry i am a picture whore...just need as much help as possible.
