Hello everyone, this will kinda be my first time growing shrooms. I have little experience the last time i tried growing them i ended up moving to a new state but! After settling down i figured im ready to try again. I will be using the pf tek method but this time i have 10 inoculated jars and hopefully will have a nice harvest. I got my syringe Wednesday inoculated the same night so far everything is looking surprisingly great! After only four days to my suprise the jars started showing mycelium the size of silver dollars! Ill keep this thread updated wish me luck!
5 days after inoc. http://tinypic.com/r/28mpav4/5 Posting on my phone so having issues trying to upload pics directly towards the forums

GT is not a strain, it is a variety.
There is no variety of cube that is any more noob friendly than any other.
Cubes are cubes.....they are all essentially the same.

Look at the big sticky at the top. You'll find tons of bad info on here such as using incubators, non-sterile procedures the works. I literally went through a vendor's catalog and saw no differences in potency or size to speak of.
There are different variations of psilocybe mushrooms, but not of cubensis - these are generally named for where they are found or who discovered them; but in the end you grown them all under the same conditions you will have very similar crops regardless of the hype.

People often refer to them as strains, but they really are not. As time goes by, you will be able to recognize who to listen to and who not.
Your more likely to succeed if you listen to trusted cultivators.
If you fruited GT, Ecuador, Koh Samui, B , or whatever "strain", you would not be able to i.d. them without tracking with labels from the beginning.
Although there is no real harm in saying or thinking it's a "strain", I would not put a lot of faith in the words of those who still call it that.

It is a strain, I don't care who the {Expletive} says otherwise. Its like a race, right me and Tbag are both Homo-sapiens, but he is probably white, and I am probably not as white. Strain, Race, Who gives a fuck we are all talking about Cubies for the most part. If someone isn't than they will probably say so.
Reason for Edit: So I am rereading my posts from last night, I was drunk. I have given the exact opposite post in the other direction before. I guess I just felt like arguing with someone LOL. Anyway, Good times! Thanks, I love my GT strain! I mean race!

I'm just gonna quote wiki since it was well formulated there;
While biologists sometimes use the concept of race to make distinctions among fuzzy sets of traits, others in the scientific community suggest that the idea of race often is used in a naive or simplistic way, i.e. that among humans, race has no taxonomic significance: all living humans belong to the same species, Homo sapiens and subspecies, Homo sapiens sapiens.
So yeah, a "race (human)" and a "strain (mushroom)" may have some similarities... in the sense that they are both pretty fuckin' useless denotations, which are overlapped by more correct and specific scientific classifications which we should probably be using instead.
=P
Edit: poor form to quote without link to source, sorry. Wiki: Race (human classification)

http://www.shroomery.org/5122/The-Shroomery-Mushroom-Glossary
Strain - A genetic line considered to have common traits, usually identified for artificial selection by humans. Many strains have geographical names (e.g. Ecuador, Texan, Aussie), but point of natural origin is not necessarily the source of the name. Remember that strains are a human notion; vendors often differentiate between stocks that are not visibly different to everyone, but which have been perceived to have different characteristics, whether visual (e.g. the Penis Envy strain), chemical (as in strains perceived to have high potency), or behavioral (relating to the mushroom's response to environment, colonization speed, et cetera).
What traits do B+ have that separate it from GT? None that I'm aware of.
