Do the different Cube strains produce a different "Psychedelic high" ?
Yes.
Unfortunately, you have to isolate to get strains. The current fad of giving a sporeprint a name and selling it doesn't constitute a strain. That's the very reason we banished discussion of strain to this abortion of a thread. A strain by definition is a pairing of compatible hyphae or mycelium, not the name someone wrote on a collection of millions of spores, each with its own genetics. RR

To 'stabilize' would be to reduce the genetic variation which makes this one of the very few unique strains. However, my feelings on 'strains' are well known, even it it's one I put out(accidentally). Of course there's variations, but that's what makes PE6 interesting.
If you start isolating to single sectors, fruit them, and then isolate to single sectors again, fruit, and again, and again, what you get is very little genetic diversity. Perhaps PE6 is best grown from multispore inoculation each time to preserve that variation. Even spores from the texas-looking caps will produce PE looking fruits.
Oh, and my definition of 'hybrid' is a bit stricter than most. I don't consider PE6 a hybrid, since the original parents both came from the same species.
Gosh, I think this is my second post in the strain thread. I must be slipping up. Have I mentioned cubes are cubes yet?  RR
