I agree with moorhs. I too have harvested a few more mature fruits and let the rest continue to grow with no noticeable adverse effect.

If you are only going to be gone a week you could probably harvest the first flush, go on your trip and return without much detriment to your casing.

Your pins will develop completely in about five more days or so. You do want to wait until the veil breaks loose, that is when they are fully mature. Waiting beyond that increases nothing except the size of the fruit. The potency will remain relatively the same. They look really healthy, congrats.

I usually wait a full seven days.

WBS works well for me. It is fairly inexpensive and readily available here. Also, like dub said it is mostly millet which colonizes rather rapidly.

Ralphsters.

You can put a aquarium heater in a jar of water and place it inside your FC to increase the temp.

I have my light source on a twelve hour cycle.

Indirect light would be best IMO. The fruits just need enough light to know which way is up. If there is enough light to read, that is sufficient. You really need to invest in a hygrometer though. Maintaining the RH is essential.

Yep, you should start to see pins any day now. Excellent photo quality too by the way.

Usually about a week.

As I mentioned in another thread I have been doing G2G transfers with the Texas strain for almost a year now and to be honest I do not see a significant difference between them and other strains as far as their appearance after drying.

Looks good. dub has the right idea. After you mist you should see results in a few days. Let us know how it turns out.

I have been doing G2G transfers with Texas strain since sometime last summer. I have had excellent results, very hearty strain.

You do not need to keep them plump. The "magic" is in the dried fruit.

The fruits are 90% water. You will see significant shrinkage when you dry them out completely (cracker dry).

I really don't think anyone here will help you with your request, after all that would be illegal. Perhaps you should consider growing your own.

Leave it on as a protective barrier.

Yea, and cut it out with the Morel B. S. WE know what you are up to!! Heh Heh. Welcome to the show.

Yes, you can trimoff part of the cake but it is better to wait and lessen the risk of contamination.
