retard proof shroom strains

I need to find a fool proof psychedelic strain that'll grow under any circumstances...cause I got four mycobags already on their way (two millet / and two rye) and about the only thing I'm capable of is injecting these fuckers, an forgetting about em (believe you me - I've fucked up on mycobags in the past (though I'm still not entirely sure how) and you better believe I'll find a way to do it again)
so what's a good strain that WON'T let that happen

There is no strain like that. Some are reported to have good contamination resistance though. If you're not flaming your needle and such, you could easily get bacterial contamination or other kinds. But I would be more worried about bacterial contamination because that's always been my problem.
Mushrooms aren't easy to grow like plants. You plant some seeds, they are very unlikely to be harmed by bacteria. But spores are very susceptible to attack from bacteria, especially when in too high a concentration.
So many people want to half-ass things when it comes to mushrooms but they're not plants, so you can't really do that usually. Why not save up money for a flowhood and pressure cooker? You will be very unlikely to fail if you put this kind of effort into it.

ive not come across any cubes that are any easier to grow than another. alcohol wipes and a still air box will help prevent infection tho.

If you have Mycobags ready to go, why not look at something like ATL#7 or Mexicana 'A'?? All you need to do is inject the bags, and leave them alone for two to three months, don't even shake them. Can't get much simpler than that!

Strains don't contaminate, substrates do. Follow proper sterile procedure and you'll succeed. No substrate is retard proof.
Flame your needles, wipe the injection ports with 70% alcohol, use a glovebox, and shut off all fans, AC or heat units, take a shower and wash your hair, brush your teeth, wear gloves, and wipe the gloves with alcohol after you put them on. RR

I had a major sterility collapse the other day and am now growing gorgonzola, or roquefort, not sure which. I think I deserve major retard points for this live and learn

well, the question is strain-related, but the answer isn't, so it makes sense that the general info here isn't any use in the strain discussion thread.
Also, +1 to the shock when I noticed 24k+ posts.

lol. if i try to grow plants i end up killing them somehow. mushrooms are so much easier, it basicly grows it's self. you only have to worry about contams a bit.
and all cubes are the same, get some GT or something.

I agree. Cubes are very easy to grow. One could say that they are a "retard-proof species"
Sterile technique is very important, though. Many growers mess up their first grow(s) accidentally, or have bad luck with the inoculant
