Honestly, that's one of the coolest things I've read in a long time.
I'd be interested to hear his reasoning behind picking 61F. Like pasty said, due to the illegal nature most evidence on potency is going to be anecdotal and/or subjective.

I fruited mine in the mid to low 60s all winter. Really the only difference I’ve noticed between that and mid to high 70s is it takes a day or two longer and I had way less contamination when it was colder.

A.k.a said: I made a similar post but didn’t get any responses. From what I’ve read colder fruiting makes thicker smaller shrooms but I haven’t seen anything about potency.
The fruits I got in winter where smaller. The biggest one was 18g wet. The clone I made came from a cluster and the fruit was 15g. I'm running that clone now and some the fruits are huuuge. This morning I picked a pin that was growing from the liner and it was 5g. Ate half of it ( my usual MD 0.25g) and nothing. The same happened with my last grow but since it contam before 1st flush I thought that was the reason for low potency. If psilo is used as a protection mecanism and is created through enzymatic activity it makes sense that slow growing fruits need more protection because they're exposed to dangers for longer periods. Also more time spent in the fruiting stage means more enzymatic activity and thus, like aborted pins, more psilo. But that's just my intuition speaking.

61 F sounds so specific haha. Is that better than 60, or 62? I wonder how the guy came up with that number.

Actually he said 16C but I converted to F so most people here don't have to.

I think I spoke to soon about the potency. They're as good as the original fruit. Also got this beautiful big and sporeless fruits. Cloned 3 of them and the myc shows 2 different strains.
