Thanks for that! Didn't really consider it before, but with the coming summer rain and heat, I've got a perfect little shady spot in my yard. The strain I have is perfect for it too. Cheers!

I know multispore and genetics cause a great deal of difference in potency, and typically "A cube is a cube" but since PE is generally believed to be more potent than your average cube, are there any noticable differences in the different variants of PE? (PE, APE, PEU?)

They are all roughly the same as far as potency. I've heard reports of PE6 being above average potency as well.

I went ahead and got the traditional PE, since it seems that all the phallic Cubes have the same general potency, and the original looks a bit more realistic and will be fun to surprise friends with.

I'm going with PE for my next grow - PEU is in my sig - but I think (cannot verify) that PE is going to do better, as I had trouble ever establishing a completely healthy PEU isolate...

I wondered if you were still active around here lately! I plan on taking the PE and using the extended consolidation that you've described. Should be 
I tried it with some BRF cakes, Mazatapec, and there was obviously consistently higher potency, even with MS.

I've been taking a break this summer. Recalibrating my mind. Loved the PEU, what I was able to grow of it anyway.

Everyone needs a break from time to time, I'm not quite there yet though.  Is there anything I should be aware of with PE? I know to expect slower pinning/fruiting but will it be as difficult to pin as PR is known to be?

I never had any problems getting PEU to pin or fruit, yes it's slower but that's part of the potency equation I think. I wasn't able to get any trays into long-term consolidation because they always contaminated after a while. Same thing would happen after about the 2nd flush. Could be my technique, could be the spores. I would like to see what happens with PEs held for an extended consolidation. 
One thing that I'll suggest that may be of interest (though I didn't try it) is the short sharp shock applied to trays that haven't pinned yet. RR reported this with Shiitakes to initiate pinning, and I noticed in the long "Easier than Cubes" thread about stones that somebody who had them in the garage and broke the jar on the floor by accident found that the salvaged spawn started making stones like crazy. Theory being it's an environmental stressor and the reaction of the spawn to a sudden impact is to initiate fruiting. Worth trying...

Any idea if that would be better/less harmful than LM's heatshock? I haven't tried it, but it seems like the same theory. (Stress to initiate pinning/fruiting.)

How many grams of PE would be equal to normal cubes? [Re: PrimalSoup]

I know there isn't really a way to tell scientifically but are there any estimates on the ratio of potency between Penis Envy to Cubes?

There's a guy who was talking about getting them tested in europe. Also for unknown indole alkaloids. The guy who sent the original print to Workman. I believe in this whole idea too!

PE is a cube.

does anyone know if there is a mushroom that looks like anything in the carmel cap complex that is poisonous? i'm a landscaper and as of two days ago i am finding what looks to be like psilocybe azurescens and cyanescens growing in clusters right out of the mulch at about every other house i go to. the most significant was today...an extensive mycelium run through the mulch with shrooms that look identical to every picture of flying saucers i've seen.
