Can't decide what shrooms to grow

I can't decide what mushrooms to grow, tried them for first time and enjoyed it a lot, so I decided to try something different than B+, McKennei looks interesting, but I think it'll be too strong for a second time, so I tought about a Hawaii+ that grows fast in dark places, what do you suggest guys?

If you know how to grow cubensis, penis envy and albino penis envy are kinda the apex of difficulty. Not because they grow any different but because it can take time to find good genetics.
All other varieties basically grow the same. Look up the strain thread.

If you’re looking for something that isn’t too potent IME penis envy wouldn’t be the way to go. They are by far the strongest cube IME. As for other cubes I’m growing some golden teachers. I’ve heard good things about mazapatecs which will probably be my next one. I’m not too experienced with growing them, but I’ve definitely eaten my fair share

All cubensis mushrooms other than penis envy have the same potency so don't really worry about that. Just pick a strain that suits your growing conditions best, even though they are all relatively similar.

And can I keep the kit in my wardrobe and give it some light time by getting it out during day?

Small scale "stealth" grows can be painfully hard. I would stick with the highly domesticated strains like GT or B+.

Debating which cube to grow is like picking Pepsi vs coke vs RC cola vs store brand..
It's the same shit really... (minus the penis)

I've had the best results with PESA. but as the saying goes, a cube is a cube except for penis envy as previously stated.

Around here they recommend 12/12 light cycles, but honestly, I think you could get away with 6-8 hours a day. Just keep the light timing consistent, start and end at the same time each day if possible. Also if you're growing in a confined space, the bigger issue would be FAE. I don't know how you plan on getting FAE other than manually fanning every 4-5 hours which can work. Just consider all the options.

A few years ago I had the same question and decided I needed to train first, My first grow was oysters just to see if I could grow, my second was wild oysters both worked well and I decided I could handle cubes, I wasted hundreds of dollars thinking I could ignore the people on here and jump right into psilocybe cyans.. failed. Then got cube spores from a non vendor... Failed. Then got growkits from a non vendor... Failed. Then tried fast and loose non sterile and you guessed it... Failed. So at the end of 3 months wasted I went to a sponsered vendor got some b+ and made some brf to the tek and succeeded. I don't think the fact that I got b+ was the difference, it was my cockyness in the beginning. Now I can do anything and so can you, just save the ideas of venturing out until you have mastered the easy. BTW I think what ever you pick will be good as long as it's from a good source that had clean practice and you have clean practice.

If you get a small cabinet that can fit a medium to large sized sgfc with enough room for air to come in underneath with a heat pad and 3 in of under sgfc clearance and on top a fishtank light with a 6500k tube bulb on top all you gotta do is run the cords into the cabinet somehow(drill holes or whatever) with cristmass light timer on your light with 12/12 set and the misting and FAE is on you every few hours or whenever you want to do it. That's what I did for stealth back when I had too.
