Need help identifying strains 1

I went through the strain thread already and I still can't decide. And I have read through many of the strains details on quite a few posts on here and have looked at pictures but it seems each person's pics of a certain strain vary a little bit.
My project recently went to the fruiting chamber and have progressed pretty well. I have two strains growing at the same time in different fruiting chambers. The strains are EQ and PESA One strain took off quite early and has given me very thick stems and large caps. While the other strain which is looking similar in appearance and is taking much longer and the fruits are much smaller. My question is, are there any notable differences between these two strains that will help me identify which strain is which? Do both have nipples on cap? Which fruit faster? Color differences?
The fast fruiting strain seems to have a deep caramel color cap with some caps having an almost white rim towards the outermost rim of the cap and almost all the fruits have little nipples. The other strain is smaller in size and the caps are darker reddish brown and sill have a ball to compact shape and not spread out like the other strain.
I want to say the fast growing one is EQ because I vaguely remember making more cakes for EQ but cannot be sure and the caps somewhat resemble PESA pictures. I can include pics of each cake if my post seems confusing.

Here is the fast growing batch which I think is EQ.

Here is a pic of the same batch but of some of the cakes.

Here is the slower batch that might be PESA. I don't see prominent nipples on these specimens.

And here are some small flushes of the fast growing batch going into the Nesco at 95 F. You can kind of see this strain at different angles with this pic.

Sorry for the mistakes in my post earlier. Won't happen again. I guess I am asking for the variety names. But after reading your replies it doesn't matter anyways if they are the same lol

I took 3 of the biggest caps and decided to give spore printing an attempt on some tin foil. The only reason I was wondering the name is so that if my print is successful I can label it correctly. But no worries, not that big of a deal in the end. Since there is no easy way to identify the variety then I guess this thread is over :p I just hope the rest of the cakes grow just as well! Thanks guys
