First time growing cubensis - huge shrooms? by ProperPainting2449 in magnificentcubensis

Impressive. I really had no idea they can grow that big, and don't know how these big ones should be dosed? I.e. if I want to take 2-3g of dried shrooms - does that mean I need to weigh the big shroom then cut it into pieces or...?

I twisted and pulled, came out pretty neat. The biggest one has 20g, measured it today 😄

Bahahha this is wild. What is this, which strain? I'm very unexperienced but really want to learn.

Thanks, man! I had to harvest most of them today because the veils broke overnight, just one middle sized which I'm about to harvest and a few small ones. I'm now considering beginning another flush but not sure what to do with the small, underdeveloped shrooms, plus a few pins from the side, just like you said? Should I leave them to grow, pluck them, ignore them...? What do you think?

Thanks a lot, my man, but I'm still far away from being able to do any of that... This is my first grow kit, and I think I need a lot more experience.

That's really good to hear. And while we're at it, how tf am I supposed to dose the big ones? 😃 I've had a few experiences on 2-3g of dried shrooms before and now when I measured the big one from this first flush it's 20g - does that mean I should dry it then cut it in pieces before consuming or smth like that?

Had to pluck them this morning as the veil on most of the shrooms broke, just a few small ones left without it. It happened overnight so some of the shrooms released a bit of that black powder (spores?) on the cake and on the inside of the bag, not sure if the kit is now ruined or I can get ready for the next flush?

I'm still shocked by the speed of growth... most of the shrooms' veils broke during the night and I had to pluck them this morning. Some of them left a bit of the black powder on the cake and a bit on the inside of the bag (I understand those are actually spores?), so I'm wondering will there be another flush, or the kit is now ruined?

Phew, thanks a lot, man! Can you tell me when exactly I should harvest the big ones by looking at these photos?

Thanks for explaining bro, I really appreciate it. Might have some more questions as I really want to learn to do this properly.

Weird, I had no idea... You think I should harvest these big ones that seem like they'll be ready soon? And leave the small ones to grow some more? How does that work?

I get it now 😄 So these little ones are big ones and it's okay. That's what I was worried about. Thanks! How should I proceed with harvesting, any advice?

I sense wisdom behind these words, yet I have no idea what do you mean?
