you should pick them right before the veil breaks.

no not necessarily, most people pick before the veil breaks for multiple reasons, the potency is the same in a small one that is in a big one so hence smaller package bigger bang...also most people dont want the spores to drop all over there perlite.. IMO i wouldnt worry about it... you got mushrooms so celebrate!!! if you want bigger ones try a different strategy.

This is some pretty basic stuff, a cube is a cube and the potency remains relatively the same throughout the life-cycle of the mushroom..  There might be a slight drop in potency after the veil breaks but the slight drop in potency is compensated by having a much larger fruit...  Either way you are looking at 1.5 gram dose of dried mushrooms for a decent trip...  So that is like 2 to 3 fairly large mushrooms or like 10 smaller ones....

Take it from personal experience - 2 grams of dried aborts and baby mushrooms will wreck you. Potency decreases by dry weight (gram per gram) the more a mushroom matures.

When you pick a mushroom is all personal preference - but letting a mushroom drop spores will get messy in a hurry (RR has posted that cube spores are gunky enough to destroy computer fans)

Small mushrooms are generally coised buy lack of moisture, either dry substrate or lack of humidity.

Dunk your cakes for 24 hours and roll in verm (keep the verm moist).

Also make sure to give plenty of FAE and strong light in the daylight range on a 12 on 12 off cycle.

When people say "before the veil breaks" does that mean right when it first tears? or you start getting enough expirence to predect right before it shows any signs of breaking?

i use a small compac miror to look underneath the mushrooms... once the veil shows ANY signs of tearing.. it will be off in a matter of hours (atleast in my experience).. you can also look by the shape of the cap... the cap flattens and thats what causes the veil to tear... so if the cap looks kinda flat before you go to bed.. pick it so you dont wake up to spores all over your fc

If the veil breaks and it spores could that help get more?

At what stage should I pick if I want to print like when its partially tearing or closed?

It really doesn't matter if the viel is gone or just starting to tear, you might as well weigh the dosage out the same. The difference would be incredibly small; unless you're dosing on aborts or pins, in which case a gram would feel like an 8th. Shrooms will still produce **more** actives after the viel breaks... But the actives are produced at a slightly slower rate than when the shroom was still real young... It's not like they stop producing happy after teh viel breaks, and they do get more potent because as they get bigger.. Because there's more happy in them.
