looking for identification on this strain of cubensis. This was supposed to be APE, but looks a lot like PF Albino, although it drops darkish spores. take a look, maybe you can identify. The spore prints on the right

it's P.Cubensis. and you'll never know the variety.

RogerRabbit said: Strains are marketing driven, no more. You can't identify strains by looking, even with a microscope. Even the red spored strains show up occasionally regardless of the 'name' on the strain. Certain exceptions exist such as albinos, but remember, every strain out there will throw an albino once in a while. Clone it and you have an albino strain. RR
We need a strain thread because we were getting five to twenty strain threads started every day because people wouldn't read any of them, but simply start a new one. Now we close those so people who really want information can find it without endless, worthless discussion about strains in three or four threads per page.
I could take five different 'strains' and do a grow with each one, and then post pictures of them with a list of the five strains used. I'd bet the responses couldn't average more than 1 out of 5 correct, which are the odds if everyone simply guessed while blindfolded.
There are no cultivation parameters that are different between strains. There are no substrate parameters that are different between strains. There are no temperature parameters that are different between strains. You won't be able to identify 'strain' by looking, either with or without a microscope, penis envy and the albinos/redspore strains excepted.
Each and every strain can grow very large, or very small fruits, depending on the substrain that emerges. Each can be very potent, or inert. Each strain can produce genetics that can withstand cooler temperatures, or higher temperatures. This is what experienced growers mean when we say they're all the same. They're all the same because they're all different, even grow to grow from the same syringe.
This is why we chose to keep the strain discussion up here. It goes nowhere, but gets endlessly repeated. Have fun. RR

Marketing crap is why everyone is confused. There is no such thing as creeper strain or any other strain which can be grown from spores. A strain is a pairing of compatible hyphae, and each viable spore creates one hyphae. Since a sporeprint has many millions of spores, there are millions of strains going to be produced, not one strain regardless of the name someone wrote on the print or syringe to sell it to noobs who think it's going to perform differently than another.
There are some legitimate vendors who have narrowed down the gene pool to provide consistent results, ie albinos, PE, etc.,(check out posts by workman) but by far most of the people selling spores are unscrupulous and simply label the random syringe or print with whatever 'name' the person orders. RR

nice uninformed post 
you've got a completely random chance of a good identification of the variety you'll get 5 different answers from 5 different people

Anyone have any experience with the wild mt cottons that got given out last year I would like to know general size and colonization time haven't found much info on these at all

thanks for the try it's not AA+, i have them growing side by side, they are differences. Thinking a sub strain of the PF but not quite albino... guess if no one else claims it, then i will possess it

you totally missed the point man. AA+ can look different from grow to grow so they're AA+ deal with it.

There is a Treasure Coast albino sub strain according to Hawks eye. It could be those. http://www.thehawkseye.com/tc/tc.html

A lot of luecistic mutations been popping up lately with other varieties, so it could really be anything. It doesn't really matter at this point what the original variety was, if it was a mislabeled AA+ or something else. Point is that you now may have a leucistic trait and thats always something worth keeping around IMO. You will know for sure once you grow out the spores from the print you took.

I'm confused about A strain and its hard to find info on it because it always comes up as "I was working with *a strain* of cubes". Whats the difference (or is there one) with this or AA+ and I'm trying to figure out, is that the same as "Allen Strain"?
And yes a cube is a cube but I'm trying to find out more details. Because B+ was very specific, and Koh Samui very different, for example.

A+ strain like B+ was a variety that Mr. G came up with and was the parent so to speak of AA+. AA+ is luecistic and A+ is not. Pretty much the main difference. The writeup on the first page of this thread will tell you pretty much everything there is too know.
