 Which would you say is more potent?

I know genetics and all would be the major factor, but out of these varieties which would you guys say is the most potent/best high? Choices are: Mazatepec, B++, Golden Teacher, and Texas Yellow Cap? Just wondering for the fun of it 
I don't have access to other exotic varieties such as PE, or ones of the leucistic variety sadly.

I've only grown B+ and Golden Teacher out of that list. MY first batch ever was Penis Envy Uncut, and they were killer. Straight albino, huge flushes, and great potency. Only had a 3 year old swab left, but hope to get these back in circulation. I had them dumping spores pretty good with some neglect, so hopefully get a shit load of prints this time around. That strain is special.

Yea I am wondering how different for example Texas yellow will be from Golden Teachers.

cubes are cubes except for PE. there is no difference in potency on a species level. they are all cubes and all the same species. the only differences in potency are due to genetics,environment,fruit size,substrate ect. ect. ect. the geographic location of origin or the name on the syringe/print has nothing to do with it. those are just varieties of cubes

I had the best experience on GT when I first started the hobby and my friend left me three cakes. They were my first ever mushrooms grown. Made chocolates out of them and shared with a friend. Super vibrant trip with lots of visuals and belly laughs.

what is it about PE that makes them different. Assuming more potent correct?

I agree it's all genetics. You can get killer any variety with enough patience and dedication.

I’ve had PE potent cultures with MAZ but they’re super finicky and like to mutate excessively ime.
Gt were small mushrooms but plentiful.. as I remember it, they were pretty average like most cubes
PE seem to have more potent sub strains in general.. probably has a lot to do with the consolidation time before pinning.. it’s been my experience that the longer it takes a fruit to happen/grow, the more potent they can get but that’s just a theory.. genetics play a huge role of course. I’ve definitely had average potent pe before but that’s more rare than an above average culture

Is there a way to tell if your getting better genetics when at the agar stage other than just going with the faster growth?

No. You need to fruit and clone. However, there still a chance that you'll get weaker stuff.
If you want different strengths ect I suggest exploring other speices.

Only way to judge potency is to eat it  
I’m sure they have lab tests but I’m not sure how you’d go about that.

One thing to remember is that any spores you're getting are almost certainly many generations of controlled breeding away from the original variety. With the varieties that just look like cubes, you're going to have pretty distinct genetics from source to source. If we assume people are carefully selecting desirable traits, and you get a print of B+ from a member of this website, it's going to be substantially different genetically from those of another member. Same goes for vendors. You have visual cues from mutant strains, which seem to also impact things like potency, and cultivators generally breed towards those visual traits, but you still have wildly different genetics in PE from source to source. All that added to the fact that we're a thousand generations with ten thousand opportunities for mislabeling away from the original Golden Teacher and you're sort of just left saying "a cube is a cube".
That said, I've had some mind-blowing GTs in my life. I just couldn't vouch for any other GTs.

How varied can the potency be in a non-pe cube?
Seems that with good genetics 5g is a mind blower, could you eat 5g of bad genetics and have the equivalent trip as you would of 1g of good genetics? like how much can it vary?
I've never known anyone to have done 5g and not trip hard and I find it hard to believe genetics have always been good as this covers a wide variety of sellers ranging from trusted cultivators to unknown street dweebs.
I've also never known someone to grow themselves and have fruit that doesn't enable a decent trip or potency that is easy to distinguish from previous.

I’ve had regular cubes as strong as PE. I think they all have the same potential it’s just some have different average potencies.
I’ve had one weak grow and it was like there was zero actives. If this were weed I’d say a hemp seed must’ve gotten mixed in lol.
I ate 4g and felt maybe like a large microdose. Besides that one it’s never been an issue.

Were they visibly different in any way? did they bruise? I guess a very high percentage of shrooms are a similar potency and thats why it's rare to hear of the average consumer getting bunk goods
