Cambos have an interesting history and have good word of mouth.
Acadian Coast also has good word of mouth, but its history is more unclear and it has never been as popular as Cambo.
Argentina... OY! I dunno much about it. Ralph's the only guy who sells it and he has very little info about it. Ask him, he might have more to say...
I'm not even 100% certain it is from Argentina... but I assume it is.

Pura Vida? Like pure life! I've never heard of them! Do you have any more info on them?

Does it look different? Do you remember who sent you the print?

Pura Vida must be an Costa Rican strain. That's like the Costa Rica motto "pura vida". They sell tourist shirts and stuff with that motto on them.

You could have something very special there! It should be from a latin country considering the name... I'd love to know its story! I hope you can find who sent it to you!

There is a Costa Rica strain circulating. I haven't heard it called by that name though. Maybe it's a different strain.

If I added every single 'Strain' mentioned on these boards, we'd have an eternal list of bullshit cubes (it already is a list of bullshit cubes... to a point).
I try to keep to the commercial cubes, the unique cubes, and the ones that have circulated widely in trading circles (with a COMPLETE or interesting history).
If there is anything interesting or unique about it, or you learn more about its history, let me know.

Yeah definitely. There's no point in having a cube on this thread with no history.
Couldn't this thread have pans also and other species? That would make it the complete psychoactive mushroom strain/race/variety/species thread.

Pans and other novice fungus... like the Mexicanae species... definitely on my short list of things to do.
I may get started very soon.

That's very good to know Cervantes! If I hadn't rated you already I would! I love your threads!

Sorry.
Spread the spores around, see if it takes off.
If it becomes more common, I can do something.
