My buddy found a good trick for this. Get some different colored thumbtacks. Pick a strain, assign a color, then stick the pins in each cake when you dunk. It won't hurt the cakes and it won't fall out during the dunk. Leave them in for the next flush and you'll know exactly what you've got at all times.

No way. PE PEU APE PE6 in a totally diff class when it comes to potency. Nothing else comes close ime.

Everything is subjective and anecdotal without expensive lab results and not everyone reacts the same to various active chemicals. That being said, every person on this forum that has eaten and/or cultivated PE agrees that it's stronger than other strains, all other factors being equal.
Even without lab results, that's pretty hard to argue with. Gram for gram they're more potent on average. I'm not going to speculate on the hows and whys but I take it as fact, as many people here do.

If you scotch taped over the only 5 holes those lids can breathe through, you're not getting any gas exchange at all. However, unless you filled the jars 100% full of grain, there should be enough oxygen in the jar to get some growth going.
Also about your lid tek. If you put the tyvek directly over the mouth of the jar then put the lid on top of that (then your ring), that's a bad way to do it as I've found out. Water can get trapped between the lid and the tyvek, soaking the tyvek and creating a breach where molds and other bad stuff can enter the spawn when you shake. You want to have lid first, then tyvek, then ring.

If this is your first rodeo, don't grow PE. It may be stronger than other cubes but it's kinda retarded also. First flushes often produce many or only mutant blobs, it takes forever to grow, etc.
I consider it a novelty strain.

hamloaf said: You are boiling/simmering your WBS for too long. WBS isn't more gooey than rye per say. It's just that the the straches'll be boiled out of the WBS grain mix quicker when being heated over rye due to the size of grain. WBS is a more of sensitive beast when it comes to the preparation of it then rye which is why rye is prescribed to the beginner. Rye is harder to fuck up and is also more nutritious. What I like about birdseed though is the varying sources of nutrition being provided to your mushroom mycelium.
Not to mention the price and availability. If Ace Hardware is still running their annual sale, you can nab 60lbs for $10.

ProfessorPinHead said: What? WBS is almost all white millet bro. You should search it. Its the little white seeds. I don't think you are thinking of the correct thing.
Millet is the best seed to grow off form my experience.
 You actually want the hulls. If you use unhulled it will turn to glue
I guess it depends on where you get WBS and what kind you get. The generic types available in the US are milo and cracked corn-heavy. There's some millet thrown in for color usually.

Maz is pretty neat. It pins over every single inch of the substrate for me, just looks impossibly dense, then hundreds of skinny fruits fill the air. On BRF cakes it was just amazing to see. Potency was nothing special but it sure loved to fruit.

I think Andy's right on. It's possible to isolate and end up with a non-fruiting substrain. The odds are against it, but it remains a possible outcome.
Also, you could have birthed too early (however unlikely) so the cake is still in the vegetative, colonization phase of growth. You can try to force pinning by balling up some wax paper, lightly misting the cake and setting the unfolded wax paper on the surface. That'll create a microclimate while still allowing a certain amount of fresh air to hit the cake. Then again..if you don't even have side pins at this point, it's a mystery.

If you want greater yields, you gotta focus on a few factors. It'd be best to clone and isolate for specific traits from your existing strains. If you desire a full canopy, clone and isolate from a young cluster. If you want lots of big boys, clone and isolate large fruits.
It's gonna take some agar work to get to where you want to be, and maybe some tweaking of your sub. I think you can make any strain perform the way you want through isolation, cloning, and experimentation.
