Clarification on sclerotia forming cubes?

Im considering experimenting with a sclerotia producing species next, but am fuzzy on some stuff.
I imagine these species would typically produce low fruit yields because so much energy would be going into making the stones.
Is this a safe general assumption, and are there known species/varieties(not necessarily cubes) that produce similar yields to cubes fruit-wise?
My thoughts being that if i switch to a stone producer that has a similar fruit yield to my PE's and KSSS, it seems like a no brainer because I get bonus stones too right?
Probably too good to be true but it doesn't hurt to ask.
Also some clarification on potency.
I know that stones are supposed to be slightly less potent than their fruits by mass, but i know that some pans and cyans are way more potent than cubes right?
So would their stones be more potent than typical cube fruits?
Basically wondering if growing a potent stone producer are a viable way to maximize the total active compounds per gram of substrate, or would I get more actives by just growing a high yield of cube fruits?

There's a whole thread for sclerotia grows and they can get a lot of fruits if conditions are good. The fruits are just smaller than cubes, but still good yields with higher potency. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27097483#27097483
Cubes don't make sclerotia, it's different species that do that.
This a general comparision between Tanmps and Cubes for your potency question.
Quote:
this difference in "potency" when drying is mostly due to the water content. Mushrooms generally have 90% water content, while sclerotia only has 30%.
5g fresh stones = 10 g fresh mushrooms, yes, 2x potent.
However when you dry them, 1.5g dry stones = 1 gram dry cubes. 2/3 potency.
** 10g Fresh Stones = 2g Dry Cubes ** 3g Dry Stones = 2g Dry Cubes ** 1g Dry Fruit = 1.5-2g Dry Cubes
