Spores are more of a lineage rather than specific genetics. If two people have 10 kids will they all be identical because they had the same parents? Doubtfull. Some will be taller some smarter. Some will be strong some will be good looking. There might be a retard in the mix. However cloning and isolation will yield the exact same thing every time.

I agree with what pastye said on the cloning/isolation. 
I can rule out some factors for you. It's most likely not your drying or when you harvested the shrooms. The different substrate may be the issue but I highly doubt it... Could be a problem with your fae and humidity.
Anyways, all those factors are weak imo in determining potency. You could try those same prints again and maybe it'll give you better genetics. i'm thinking maybe spores dont like hanging out in the freezer? Idk...
Keep us updated! Interesting study!
Oh btw im also interested in where u got ur creepers from? (Pm would be nice)
And also, how were your trips differing in potency? Care to share a trip report on the first time on brf?
Did the fruits look the same the first time on brf as it did on straw?

Any chance you have pictures of your setup and fruits?
Have you always used that light in growing mushrooms?

No I haven't always used the T5. When I moved and started fresh, I changed substrates and a bunch of different factors so nailing down the issue is hard. The creeper strain came from SD if i remember correctly, and right out of the syringe they were amazing. The jars colonized very quickly and produced some very potent fruits. Perhaps freezing the spore print was a no no... I read somewhere that was a good way to preserve the print. Or it could be that when I actually did the moving into my new house they thawed and got funky. Who knows..
I have another batch that came out much better looking than the first flush which I hopefully can sample tonight.
If these are active then its either that I fuckedup going nuts with the cool mist humidifier, or I zapped them in the drying process somehow by letting them get too hot, or I let them go too long and allowed them to drop spores. But if these are still inactive then its gotta be an issue with the spore print that I took.
I will try to get some pictures up soon. I'm not too keen on taking them with my cellphone and would perfer to do it with a digital cam

Its not hard. Its genetics. Easy.

sometimes you get crap genetics and bomb genetics from the same syringe, from the same small spot on the print.
Sometimes ya gotta bite the bullet and restart. Get some clones if you get good genetics
