2 weeks post-FUE, scabs are flaking off without losing any of the transplanted hair. Does this mean I'll have immediate growth?

Hello, I am 15 days Post op an approx 1400 graft FUE. Most of the scabbing is a yellowish color and there are few dark "typical" scabs. They yellow ones seem to be flaking off consistently at this point. Very few hairs coming off with the flaking. I'd say I still have 99% of the hair. Is this a sign that I may be in the minority of people who get min shedding and immediate hair growth, or is shedding still likely, despite the scabs falling off without hair falling with it? Thanks in advance.
