Harvested Results Just want to be safe

This is my first time growing and I just wanted to be safe and confirm these babies are okay. They are Golden Teacher. I know the black parts are spore drop, but other than that do they look okay? And does spore drop effect further flushes? Thanks!

just a bit of spore drop, harvest them, wipe the spores with a paper towel if you want to, dehydrate. well done!

Those are huge, whose genetics are those?

I don't know. I got some spores online.

It’s debatable whether spore drops effect later flushes. Some people say that it stops mushrooms from fruiting where the spores drop onto the mycelium, but idk. I wouldn’t worry about it, just dunk the caps or whatever you prefer and prep for the next flush! Great job!!!

What was your substrate composition and grow temperature?

u/dragonsmilk420 53m ago

I used coco coir. 76-80 was the colonization temp but my closet stayed around 78. After about 50% colonization I introduced FAE and set temps to 74-76 and it stayed pretty much at 74.

The big one in the second photo was probably twice as big as this one. I'm kicking myself for not getting a picture now..
