Chilean Cubes

I bought a syringe of Psilocybe Cubensis Chilean Spores off of LilShopofSpore.com. He notes that they are "not the biggest fruit in the basket, but very prolific," and that's it. I can't find any info on this cube strain so any thoughts, experiences, etc. is very much appreciated. (this probably isn't the right place to post but its the only place I could think of as appropriate)

Once I at 32 pounds of dried shrooms and turned into a ghost who morphs into human shape when I need to go onto The Shroomery, so it's pointless and a waste of government money for you to even consider tracking this account. Plus I have airborne leprosy so if you raid the house I haunt in search of drugs you're pretty much fucked.

I bet after 130 pages he will realize "a cube is a cube is a cube"

Try them out and see how they compare.
Different strains have different common phenotypes that can be expected.
To me a P. Cubensis strain can only vary so much. There can be some variation and some overlap between strains. Many strains are 90% similar. Some strains have some variation in fruiting delay, spore color, or odd mutations. Each strain can be a bit different. I recommend growing a few you like and working with them a bit. Collecting spores and clones from your favorite and seeing how things grow out.
I highly recommend PE, PF, Pink Buffalo, and Palenque for newer growers to try out. They all have something a bit different and special to offer. But try any strains of cubensis you like.
Cubensis is fun and easy to grow. I for one am glad there is a variety of strains to choose from even though they are each 90% alike. Selecting a clone you enjoy is a far more important aspect.

There's a bunch of threads saying that then there's a bunch of threads saying that a cube is not a cube. I'd just like someone's incite/experience for this strain is all man

My honest opinion is that when you have someone like Workman who puts up a dozen pictures of P. cubensis and each "strain" looks different, it is a serious testament to his experience and his mycocultural prowess that he was able to come up with that many clones that all look so different. A cube is a cube is a cube.

Except for the fact that you can knock twelve different jars up on BRF cakes and they'll most likely look different?

Yeah, that hasn't been my experience. Mexican, Brazilian, Panamanian: they all look the same to me.

Yeah, they are pretty much the same. There might be a few minor differences. But for all intensive purposes they are about the same. There is a difference between a Koh Samui, and Orissa India for example. Some strains just have charachteristics that just pop out. Koh Samui can have huge fruits and take longer to fruit and have fewer fruits. Orissa India can have tall fruits with meatier caps. The PF strain Matias Romero type was nice and meaty. Even in Stamet's book he had 4 strains of Cubensis listed. MR, Pal, Huat, and I forget what else... Even he noted differences in the strains, but If I'm not mistaken he was working with clones from strains collected during different expeditions.
