First off thank you so much Cervantes on an exceptional job of this thread. When I first read it I was totally impressed by your efforts and what is written here. I have only been a member of this site for a short time and am so thankful for this community. About ten years ago I did 2-3 baches of BRF cakes and just started to enjoy this hobby again. I started with some cakes again and quickly went to rye and so on very quickly.
What I wanted to add to this thread is this. I am currently working with 5 races of cubensis and yes a cube is a cube, but I find characteristics that are helpful in identifying differences between races. For example when I have a tray of Lipa Yi I find that the tray explodes with pins that all do not reach full size while another race will not be like this. Has anyone explored something like this? I have taken some basic notes and hope to constantly add to these. Has anyone spent any time doing something similar to this?

To my knowledge, Workman has done the most studies of different cube 'Strains'.

Has anyone here grown Oak Ridge ?
I recently acquired a print (no serial number attached to it, so it's probably 2ND gen or more..) and am wondering if anyone has any advice to contribute on growing it. (Maybe it's more heat sensitive than my standard P.C. Amazonian or Materis Romero)

Are these Malabar or Texas? I just need a solid answer because Im not sure. It is definitely one of the two. Should be malabar, but now my friend is second guessing himself. Thanks.

To me they look like Malabar.

hi sorry i didnt scan thru this entire thread but i just had a quick question...has anybody here messed w/ the cambodian strain? in anybody else's experiences, did they take FOREVER to show primordia in the jars? did you birth them even if they didnt have primordia but were fully colonized and had been in the jars for well over a month/month and a half? thanks a bunch =]

Let your jars reach 100%, then wait a week and birth. No need to wait for primordia in the jars. Do it like the videos, you'll be happy you did.

Wow. This was very informative. Thank you kindly Cervantes. By the way it is Colombia not Columbia. Colombia is a country in South America, Columbia is a University in New York;). Those two seem to be widely confused around here.

In the USA, we use the spelling 'Columbia', and we use it a lot. The other spelling, which we use so infrequently, is not something most people really notice.

My point exactly! Just because most of the USA is ignorant to the fact doesn't make it right.

You are both right.
I lived in NYC for years, by Columbia University. The Columbia was my favorite space shuttle... etc.
But I did screw the pooch. I will change the entry for Colombia Cubes soon, to correct the error, and thank you Bro, for pointing it out.
If anybody else notices any errors, especially misspelled 'Strain' names, please let me know.
I'd rather my mistakes be corrected than ignored.
Edit: I corrected the entries for CRS, PES A and PE... all mentions of Colombia (that I can remember) have been fixed.

On your second picture, the bottom left mushy against the glass - is that the ideal time to pick it? In other words, is that the cap tearing away from the stem?

My cat stuck cambos onto perlite soon as they colonized. They got nice n fuzzy and pins grew thru the fuzz and picked up a nice frosting around the cap in the process.

On another note: My cat observed some costa ricans that defeated a serious trich contamination. They were producing a clear colored gelatinous metabolite. Anyone else observed this b4?

Just to follow up on this costa rica strain from Ryche Hawk...
Myc was not that aggressive and only moderately rhizomorphic. It produced a lot of clear gelatinous metabolites where different strains on the multispore cake met up.
More interestingly, this jar came down with a nasty trich contamination. It was well over an inch wide, running the length of the jar.
Here is the same jar now:

Here are the fruits growing invitro next to the trich:
 A pic from the top:

I thought it was interesting that it managed to push the trich back so far, as well as the clear metabolites. So thought I'd share.
