how to choose mushroom for print

I know when to pick the shroom (cap opens and the tips start to curl etc)but on what flush do you normally let a shroom grow to maturity and open all the way etc? Do you wait til last flush or does it matter at all? For your own personal use how many prints do you make each time you grow? After the print is done you can just dry out the cap and still eat right?
I did a search but didn't find exactly what I was looking for... hope this isn't a repetitive question!

pick em when the viel breaks. you dont need one to fully open to print. print one when the cap opens and tips start to curl.

I cut caps for printing whenever I can see their gills. The caps will still open up all the way when cut.
I pick the fastest growing, healthiest looking mushrooms for printing. Usually the largest ones.
I make as many as I can handle at once.
Caps are still good to go after printing.

i normally take my prints from the first or second flush...but no..it really doesnt matter which flush u take the print from..i just like to get it from first flush just incase i get contams or something , and am unable to get further flushes... i normally try to make 5-20 prints from each grow..depends on how im feeling...the more you get the more you have to trade for new strains
and of course...after your done printing..you can dry it out and munch it up...

from my understanding you can use a cap the size of a dime and still make a dozen syringes. that is if you are good enough
