Cubes are just cubes when it comes to potency(besides PE) yes, but people like different strains because they have slightly different tendencies. Also different history's.
For instance, I usually grow PE for potency and thickness of the stems. BUT...if I were to grow non-PE's, then I like to choose Amazonians(because Terence first started with this cube, plus I love the amazon for several reasons) AND I like the Mexican strain because its the strain that Maria Sabina practiced her shamanistic rituals with.
-------------------- Something there is mysteriously formed, Existing before Heaven and Earth, Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging, All-pervading, unfailing, I do not know its name; I call it tao. If forced to give it a name, I call it Great (ta). Being great, it flows out; Flowing out means far-reaching; Being far-reaching, it is said to return. It's just a shot away..

There's an entire thread dedicated to this. Go to the strain thread and ask it there,

My understanding is that some strains might have different tendencies but that the variability within the genetics of one strain is so high it hardly makes any difference. It seems like the best course of action (for efficiency at least) is the pick a strain and just start doing agar work and testing until you stumble upon some great genetics.

Different mushrooms grow completely differently. Some produce smaller, denser fruits and some produce tall, thin fruits. Lots of different characteristics, including potency (though very much dependant on cultivation techniques)

Different strains are different. Some of us actually enjoy watching things grow and develop and like observing the small differences.
You can argue about potency till you are blue in the gills, but unless someone can show me cubes that get as potent as other species, I'm saying a cube is a cube.
Genetics play a role, and if you are talking MS inoculation then cubes have an average potency by volume. To suggest otherwise you gotta be using cloning and experimentation. Or an understanding of organic chemistry analysis that I cant comprehend
-------------------- I'm done trying to be "right." I want the exchange of ideas to be the currency of my economy. If you have something I can use, great. I'll try it out. If you think my methods are shit, great. Don't use it. We all want yields.

So we're your personal research assistants? Dude, go fucking read the thread that's specifically dedicated to your query. They created that thread so you people would stay out of cultivation with all of these "strain" questions.
