Hello everyone, new here. i would really like to know the bennifits of certain strains of mushrooms like which contain the most potency? i ordered 2 syringes one containing pes hawaiian because i heard this is very potent and easy to grow, also b+ for the same reason. i have ordered 2 large straw based grow bags to go along with this but will also be using rice cakes. any info on pes hawaiian or b+? like what temperature to grow and in what substance. also, do i need to make the liquid culture if i plan on using rice cakes or is it possible to inject directly into the rice cake.
any other info would be GREATLY appretiated! thanks, Nick

First off, you want to know the difference between STRAINS, not species.
second, liquid cultures are great for everything.
third, your strains are fine.

The strains are just different mushrooms pretty much. They are advertised after where they were supposededly found, but think of it in terms of this.
All the people you know are all human beings, but they all look a bit different. They may be built different, they may talk different, but they're all still the same specie they're just individuals with different genetic codes. Applying that to mycology means that all those strains are essentually just different genetic coded people.
Its been suggested to me that you always make an LC of the largest and baddest shroom you grow. Keep picking out traits your like from batches made from that LC and growing with it and making LCs. Keep making your own special strain of whatever you want, wrather than just buying a bunch of different shrooms from vendors to get veriants. It's really not that hard at all to make your own substrain, or that is so I hear. Just don't ever make a sporeprint you intend to trade, unless you mention up front that its not wholely the strain it started as.

thanks guys, one thing i dont understand, the shrooms need moisture to grow, how does moisture gather in the "grow bag" ? do i need to do certain things to bring moisture into it? should i mist the bag and assume it will seap through?

h2o2 is hydrogen peroxide. the grow bags contain moisture in the substrate..
