What are the actual differences between varieties? * 1
    #26338667 - 11/22/19 05:51 PM (4 years, 7 months ago)

I see a lot of people say the usual, a cube is a cube when talking about varieties and potency, which I get.  Then there are people that say penis envy is a standout. I get that the shapes and colors vary a bit between them, but is there any varieties that have really unique properties?  One that tends to grow way bigger, or way faster, or are the differences almost exclusively superficial?
Sorry for the total noob question.

Ive noticed some varieties colonize quicker and put out better results with MS than others. Equador, Brazil, and Costa Rican are a few ime that colozinized faster than others.

Some, like Cambodian, have more pronounced nippled caps, and others like Equador can get to be monster in size..

The regional differences might have something to do with the macro differences in the mushroom but thats purely speculation. Some like Aussies have really neat "hats" and others can be fat and squatty like ksss.. some can put out huge fruits like Orissa, and some may have huge stems like golden teachers.

There are other things to consider that could be impacting growth tho. Temperature Air exchange and other factors can def play a role in growth rates.

Again, this is all in my experience and observations. Definitely not proven, just my opinion.

In general, the differences are insignificant.

I agree a cube is a cube but I also disagree bc I think almost every time I eat them it's different. I think of it more like a conversation with a friend, the friend is the same but each conversation with that friend is a little different. I think place and setting steers the experience. I think the experience is very much the same but each strain has its own little vibe too.

I would say varieties do have different effects but its pretty subtle. You have to be "aware" of the differences if that makes any sense. It comes with repeated experiences with homegrown cubes.

The biggest difference is with mutants like PE, APE, KSSS when compared to typical "common" cubes. The mutants are in a class their own, including highly-isolated Dealer Cubes. Theres less of a effect difference with other strains but there is still a difference!

I prefer African Transkei these days. I believe its considered a "mutant" strain. It has a "spiritual effect" mentally. Plus they look awesome when I grow them, like palm trees.

A cubes a cubes a cubes because they are not pans.
None colonize faster than another none are more contam resistant some look different but they are all cubes including pe.
Most name's stem from where they were found and some are very stable even from spores due to excessive selfing/ inbreeding.

The APE i grew for years wear more of a novelty and are normally thought to be more intense and potent
The golden teachers i have are extreame producers and very visual and not intense at all .... so things can vary
But as a rule APE are normally stronger than normal cubes... id say

Fun thought..
So pe varieties are a freak of nature for cubes and potency right?
What if this were to happen with a Panaeolus cyanescens....

Very interesting you brought that up I have just got a pan print from a trusted member that loves pans and it is insane itโ€™s growing so fast and producing things Iโ€™ve never seen before I donโ€™t really have photos yet
Itโ€™s probably just my lack of experience in growing these as Iโ€™m not an expert

Also  is it just me or I thought the penis envy was developed using snake venom and cross breeding with other albino cubes and lots of work being done by really smart people

No. The history is muddy, but the more likely scenario is that PE was selected normally as a mutant derived from a landrace collected by the McKenna brothers in the northern amazon.
Your most likely thinking of PE6, which was selected from a dikaryote-dikaryote hybrid formed between PE and Texas with the help of rattlesnake venom.
The venom, while badass and some good lore, wasn't anything particularly special. It was a shortcut to avoid the work of selecting out multiple monokaryote strains of each for the hybridization and doing a few more crosses. You could do the same thing with a paperclip, an x-acto knife, and some petri dishes. Vegan-style.

As for experiential differences between varieties, there is a possibility people love to ignore. Perhaps some people are sensitive to differences between strains and some simply arent.  :shrug:

any difference is whatever the observer perceives based off the info given. they are mushroooms they do what they do without you being present anyway.

if you could clone identical fruits instantly and give an exact copy to 100 different people i bet youll get 100 different descriptions of effects.
