ok my first flush went very well with my first cake (see signature).
my second flush (from what i can tell its been around a week) has 2 shrooms? they are really fat and big, but still, just two? FAE and Humidity should be fine. i mist and fan just as much as i have been. any suggestions?

Did you dunk and roll between flushes? And sometimes with a multi-spore inoculation, it just happens that way. Rolling the dice.

Ah thats a bummer. Ive had the same thing happen to me with cakes before. Dont give up on them, harvest your 2nd flush then dunk and roll again. Thats why Im getting away from multi-spore inoculations, you never really know what to expect.
You may want to make a clone of one of your bigger mushrooms if you havent already done so.

yeah this happened to me before also, I suspect it might have something to do with lack of nutrients, I'm going to add blood meal to my cake mix for extra nitrogen next time I grow, I heard that helps with later flushes

No multi-spore means using multiple spores all varying in genetic phenotype. All the same strain, however the dominant spores which colonize can actually be inferior. Each spore in the syringe has a different characteristic, which is why multi-spore are somewhat of a genetic gamble. I know thats not the best explanation, someone will undoubtedly come and clean it up.
When you clone, you take tissue from the specimen you want in hopes of achieving better results by passing on favorable characteristics.
