Wharf rat said: looking for identification on this strain of cubensis. This was supposed to be APE, but looks a lot like PF Albino,
It´s not APE. Not with these caps.
And with dark spores it´s a leucistic strain, not an albino.

What other strains besides penis envy, red spore, and albinos have a distinct feature that make it appear a little different then a normal cube?
Also what strain generally looks like this I've seem it a few times looks different to me then the avg cube.

Is a cube really a cube? I've never held to this theory and here's why. Although some say they are all the same, the region or country they come from has always influenced the trip. It sets up a setting that is directed towards say, India. Although in taking the same chemicals, my trio will have visions of Indian gods as opposed to Aztec designs. Its really all in your mind, but for me, each different race has a different influence just by knowing where they came from.

but u also have to consider what would happen if u took a random cube, w/o knowing where it came from to influence ur trip. also, if a shroom was originally found in India, chances are you are not getting spores from that shroom picked/found in india. u are getting spores from shrooms MANY MANY generations down the line from that original print, most likely grown elsewhere, when buying from a vendor. if u get wild prints from marketplace or trade, thats a different story. i do get different trips from different varieties, but mostly due to set and setting, and intention going into the trip, as well as dose. the mind is a powerful thing, and when amplified by any psychedelic, even more so. in that state, it is hard, either way, to know whether an Orissa India cube is giving an indian influence or not

also half of the cube names say they're from some region but they're really not. Hawaiian cubes? yea they don't grow there. It's bullshit.
so have fun with that influence that was just market hype.

Do a blind test and see what you think. Because ya know, really, they all came from outer space...

There are differences in varieties based on where they come from and how they have beet handled over the generations. Certain varieties will be more prone to having certain traits than others. Similar to the way people of different races have distinguishing characteristics. They may look a bit different but they are all the same species and the actives they contain are the same. Over the years I have taken pounds of shroomes from many different sources and the only difference I have noticed is in over all potency. The type of trip you have is based on set and setting.

You guys make a really good point about consuming mushrooms of unknown origin. I've actually only taken ones that I had no idea of where they came from. Each time, I've had Aztec type trips. The first time I took mushrooms I guess I did know where they came from because I picked them out of a field in central Georgia. Still I had the visions of Aztec type designs. I just know that when I trip it is influenced by mu thoughts beforehand and if I take some from say India, I would probably hear Indian type music and see Indian gods and such. LSD use to do this to me.

On probably my second trip ever, many years ago, I clearly and vividly saw faces of these hindu deities in the clouds. This was before I ever even had really been exposed to any of that culture. I wonder if they were orissa india... but then again, i've seen similar faces on LSD. I never thought of visuals to be related to the origin, but rather as discussed many times, mind & setting.

Hello there community!
check it out, iv'e got two bags of grain almost fully colonized and each bag containing a different race of cubes. I am planning on spawning them both to bulk sub in my tub, ha that rhymed, and i kinda think they'll do fine together, at least it makes sense, but i'm kinda stuck between a rock and a hard place.
What does the community think?

Hey guys, haven't been on here since 2004. Started growing again and just wanted to share my excitement. Birthed 5 half pint jars of KSSS (Koh Samui Super Strain) Dunked and rolled them yesterday around 6 pm est. It is now 12:54 and they have begun pinning already! Never had a strain pin so quickly. On a downer, my GT is incubating extremely slow. Will keep you updated with pics of the harvest.

I'm looking for some strains where the cap will often open up most of the way without breaking the veil.
Any recommendations?

Right, I get that, I'm just looking for good starting spores.
All of my amazonian isolates break their veil really early on, even after 5+ years of printing and isolating from those prints.

Hey, has anyone here grown out the Costa Rican strain and had good results? Every time I grow this strain it produces about a zillion tiny tiny shrooms smaller than pan cyans. I just did b+ and Costa Rica the same way with same sub, spawn ratio, and same tubs I yielded about 6 3/4 oz from my b+ and only 2 1/2 oz from the Costa Rica. This is the third attempt from m.s. and always similar results. Anyone have luck with this strain?

I am like a month into A strain and I still know almost nothing about it. It seems so confusing to search for (typing "a strain" brings up alot of unrelated stuff...like "a strain" of cubes), and when I do find it, I keep hearing about A+ or AA+ or sometimes, Allen strain. Can someone clear up the genetics of A strain for me? Seems to be quite aggressive mycelium. Very resilient and fast, and compared with Dancing Tiger, is much faster, but I don't see much "rhizomorphic" growth (AFAIK, web-like growth), which is exactly how the DT grows, but much slower. Still, clean fast mycelium and if I'm not mistaken, seems to be pretty contam-resistant and definitely not a "timid" strain. I have yet to see fruit but based on mycelium, it's about as aggressive as B+ but not as web-like in its growth. Faster than B+. It almost sounds like these strains are grades (which is what I first thought when I saw a vendors site for the first time). Btw, the most aggressive mycelium I've ever seen would be Cambodian, but with my experience, it gets spent fast but with massive flushes. B+ is like the energizer bunny in terms of repeated flushing.
Oh, and a cube is a cube. But it's also more than that (we can all agree to genetic differences, that they exist and that a PE syringe vs another PE syringe will be alot more similar than PE vs another MS strain like cambos for example.
