Allen Strain

Anyone have any luck yet? I have 8 cakes fully colonized that have been sitting in the grow chamber for two weeks now with no pinning. I have Pink Buffalo and Pes Haw cakes that I birthed at the same time with the Allen that are now entering their 2nd flush. Seems like the window of oppertunity for Allens to pin is very slim.

I'll be using the Allen strain for my next grow. I've heard of average results from the strain. What are your terrarium's environmental parameters?

might want to try and bump the RH a lil bit higher and see if that helps.

Back to the original question, before we go into this vendor pissing match... did you try cold shocking the cakes? Put them in the refrigerator for a couple days and then return them to your fruiting chamber.

I'm not trying to validate the strain, I'm just trying to get some feed back on anyone who has sucess in growing the supposed "Allen Strain." I have cultivated many different strain varitities over the past 5 years now (15 to be exact) and this "new strain" is quite perplexing to me. Never had trouble getting a strain to pin untill now. So to me, as of right now, this is a very new and interesting strain.

I have 8 "Allen cakes". Two I cased, two I cold shocked, 2 I have in a "Poor Man's Terrarium" and the other two I just put in the chamber with other cakes and casings. The only thing that I haven't tried is dunking.

Man I'm new but I know who Mjshroomer is and of his credibility...this has definitely cast some doubt on you Ralphster ...and Boxtop I have been wanting to buy some syringes from you but not sure as to whether to buy from you or Sporeworks... I know your both very good vendors but this has definitely cast some votes in your direction at least for cubensis syringes keep up the good work
