My First BRF Cake - Please Take a Look

12 days after birthing I am getting pins. Two of which already popped their veil but are very small. 0.05 oz. Most of the pins are at the bottom of the cakes. The temp is around 72 F and 98% Humidity according to the meter. Do these look OK? Should I just expect small fruits from these cakes. It's getting FAE 3 times a day and the FC has small holes drilled on all 6 sides. Anything else I should do?

They look like healthy pins! Sounds like you're doing everything you should be doing. Just remember, they're PF cakes. It's your first grow! You are successful! Reap the fruits of your labors and take it to the next level. You'll get better results with other substrates and casing them. This picture is of a BRF/Verm cake that was crumbled, cased and put into a fruiting chamber.  
These are pics of straight WBS crumbled, cased, then put into a fruiting chamber.  
I'm sure you can see the difference.

Those are average size for cakes, but it is possible to get some big shrooms from them.
I have had a few 10 gram fruits




All of those cakes were dunked for 24 hours, which makes a huge difference.
Genetics can play a part too, if your humidity is high (accurate gauge?) and you dunked for 24 hours, then it may just be in the genetics.

Veda, looks like you were right about BRF cakes being able to produce a few big ones. Check out the monster pin about 3/4 up the cake!!!!

Yeah they are quite surprising, im pretty mych still at the same stage as you.
It is still possible to get more and bigger shrooms out of pf teks.
Im going to be trying my hand at cloning soon, which should hopefully help get better flushes still 40 grams of 1 cake is pretty ok, and if you have 8 of them flushing at the same time
