Habitat: Where does it grow? Grew in a SGFC
Gills: Slight greyish, attached.
Stem: Roughly 2 inches, Roughly .5-1 inch, White, solid, thin.
Cap: 1 inch, outer diameter is white, while inner circle is a brownish-tan, concave
Spore print color: not sure yet, still waiting of spore print.
Bruising: Blueish.
Other information: These are possibly P.E. cubes. I injected the cakes with a syringe and 1.5 months later this is what I got. I'm not sure that these are P.E. Maybe the supplier messed up and sent me a different one? I feel I should mention that this is the 1st flush, and I've read alot about 1st flushing not being what people expected, but I'm still unsure considering the caps look nothing like P.E., that and the stems are no where near as thick and meaty as the ones I've seen in pictures that I've seen floating around. Here are the pictures:

Any and all help will be appreciated.

We do not identify Psilocybe cubensis 'strains'. It is essentially impossible in general.

you misunderstand. There is no separating "strains". It's all Psilocybe cubensis. No one is going to be able to tell you what strain you have by looking at photographs.

Exactly so. You can get educated opinions or guesses, but except in a few cases, that is the best that can be had.

Well I just figured that someone might have had a similar grow as I have, and would be able to tell me if they had a flush that looked similar, and that I wasn't screwed over with my P.E. syringe. Sorry for wasting your guys' time

From what I know, P.E. fruits look more or less... like a penis.
Those ones don't, so I don't think they are P.E.

Genetics pay a role, but doesn't the environment and conditions play large roles as well?
They may have the genetics that you are looking for, but not the appearance due to the environment that they are grown in.
Just a guess. I know that plants can behave/grow differently in different conditions.
