Wow, all this sequential agar cloning and sporulating- love it. Gotta try it.

How do you guys deal with that stuff? Its akward inviting all my friends promising good trip and deal with the disappointment.
There's always the possibility that it's you and not the material you're ingesting- cross-tolerance, unrealistic expectations, etc. But yeah, I do both. Clone AND combine/grind up lots of fruits. I don't do much explicit selecting for potency, though, and I'll still keep multispore lines around, too. Agar work in general really helps narrow down the genetics. But homogenizing a large enough sample from multiple lines generally does the trick for me either way. There are also a number of growing and harvesting practices which can really bump up the potency quite a bit, but mentioning them here would be derailing this thread!

Never had a single person I've given PE to say they were any stronger or diff then cubes.
Just move on to anything non-cube, seriously.

My wife, me and our friend group usually eat an 1/8th of cubes for a good hard trip, but with my PE, only about 2 grams are needed. They’ve been consistently more potent to the extent that my friends always asks if the mushrooms are “those same ones again,” as a couple people had difficult experiences off 2 grams.I would definitely say they are more potent, at least the ones in my bag seem to be.

Seriously, I'd give you 2 grams of a yeti culture I have if I could to change your perception of both reality and cubes. You would not need anything non-cube anymore, seriously.
Also, PE is usually more potent than regular cubes

Yeah you guys should give PE another run.
All my random cultures have smacked me in the face on a test dose. Other cubes definitely get as potent but PE is pretty consistently powerful.

PE is great. I'm always running PE and B+ just because they're good performers. Also I notice more potency with the PE family. Could very well just be my own brain parts though. 👍

These SWPE dried up to just over 5 grams, and had 3 people laying in the floor quietly for a couple hours.

^what everyone else has already said^ PE always blows my mind on like 1g
Pic tax:
<< pepper seedlings are getting quite leggy if they even germinated. I think I made a few mistakes so I'll start some more seeds today and correct what i think I did wrong.
Mushroom pic tax:
Here's one of the jars I'm worried about stalling - it certainly isn't moving as fast as I was expecting for being such a clean plate.
Jars at various stages - all inoculated and shaken the same day so I'm beginning to get a little concerned. Nothin I can do but wait though

Regarding potency, varieties and "a cube is a cube."
The first cubes I worked with cultivating were Golden Teacher. I had ideas about what 3.5 grams should do based on past experience, but with these, I had to take 7 to 8 grams to get to where I would normally get with 1/8 oz. I grew from spore and printed best looking fruits six times over since I bought the syringe and potency stayed the same. When I finally grew out another variety (Amazonian) and made an 8 grams tea out of habit, I got WAY higher. Cubes CAN vary in potency.
Regarding folks hating on cubes in favor of more potent exotics. I'm in love with cubes because of their ease of cultivation. I don't mind throwing more into the pot eventually I found the sweet spot of becoming very high, so thankful for these mushrooms in my life. All I ever wanted since my first powerful experience at age 16 was an unlimited amount of psychedelic material. I can have it now, easy peasy japaneasy. Thank you Shroomery for your help I am very grateful.
Pic tax... From my first grow.

What kind of soil are you starting your peppers in? IME leggyness comes from too much N in the starting mix. Now I use straight PH'd coco coir for all my veggie and medicinal starts til they're ready for the 1st transplant. Overall they look good. Sometimes you can combat leggyness by putting the light source closer but it kinda depends on what's causing it.

Adas knows what's up!
I've tried 20+ cubes and a handful of PE and "stronger" cubes. 3.5gram is just a normal dose. Nothing changes up to 7-8g cubes.
At that point the chitin and cube is too much for the body.

It's just a bag of the new 'jiffy seed starting mix' which is just coir, peat and verm (which pisses me off because I have plenty of all 3 ingredients lol). I suspect part of my issue was not getting lights on them soon enough and keeping the humidity dome sealed for too long after they sprouted - the shorter, stalkier seedlings in the center of the tray were next to a gap between the dome and the tray which leads me to believe they were O2 deprived in addition to being left in the dark. I'll try again since I think I have a small market for transplant ready peppers this year.
I can't afford to pay the pic tax so I'll see myself out and come back when I ain't broke lol

I hate starting peppers. I like to just pay a few bucks for the small plants at the garden center. I be killing seedlings left and right… it’s frustrating.

I'll have some for sale in a couple months if you're interested 
I would probably just buy transplants but I like more variety than what stores offer and I'm weird about buying plants online for some reason.
I don't know why I even bother running bacterial spawn..it's such a waste

I sourced some rare exotic peppers for this season. The hotter the pepper the hotter they like to be started. A mat with a dome is pretty good way to go, and I like solo cups of coir under large tubs, same for clones. Keep the light just right for 2-3 weeks and you should be good with most any pepper seed.
With regards to cubes they are a raw material. Extracts are ideal for dosing. If your raw material is 0.5-3% alkaloids and the average is closer to ~1% then the hopes of potent strains is 2-3X average. The typical weak cultivars will be at the 0.5X range. Given such a wide range of genetic capabilities one must consider any sample/strain to be potentially exceptional. I should really start using my Ehrlich reagent on some samples a la the psilo-q tek.
Nice growth MTZ. I would send those to sets of separate plates and then send whatever looks good. I also like to sector further while using the rest of the plate to noc grain. Run all the possibilities.

I am growing them too. Just cased em day ago. But with all cubes potency vary, within same variety. And its disappointing sometimes, since I have obligations, I have to find time. Also set and setting. And I dont wanna overdo them. Of my 5 or 6 trips on shroom in last 2 years only one time it blew me off. And it was most awkward setting since I didnt expect it and went for a drink at beach bar.
