Which strain to grow now?

Hi all, a few months back SWIM has great success with the Amazonian strain but found them to be a bit...lacking in potency. Now SWIM wants to start another grow. Problem is SWIM doesnt possess the necessary equipment or skill to grow really anything other the P.Cubensis. Is there a strain of Cubenisis that SWIM can grow that is more powerful then Amazonians? Also SWIM would like to consider contam resistance and total growth time into consideration.
Its a tall order I know but, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Well, none have been scientifically proven to be more potent, there's wayyyy to many variables....Either grow a cube or move up to Pans or Azures...
But creeps have done Me well, but they might do differently for you
All colonized cakes are really contam resistance when fully colonized, factors that really matter are environmental conditions and what you put into your sub....If you put more nutes in your sub. then you might notice a change...I suggest poo/hay and grains...Gl

Transkei strain from South Africa.
Try this one...you will learn why Africans wear bones in their noses.

Thanks guys. Ill get a variety pack with PE, Transkei (if I can find them), and Creeps. I wish I could move up to pans or azures but, from what Ive read, Im not really capable of growing either.

Why's that shallow? Well...Just gotta read up about dung/hay/bulk grows and an automated system...lol...guess it is a lot to do...Hmm..Well if you want a nice trip and don't want to eat much, pans are the way to go, , but i've heard the trips are more intense and are a bit different, but i don't personally know, Gl

I figured it out. (regarding PE)
The Penis Envy are more potent because of their big dick egos!
I don't know if you have ever grown PE, but normally you will not get a very broad pinset, and not even nearly the amount of yield you would get from a normal cube strain. I think this is because each shroom sucks up more nutes and moisture than a normal cube, thus empowering itself and leaving less nutes and moisture for other shrumes to grow from. Kinda classic survival of the fittest case I guess.
I've only had PE cakes and they only produced about 2-3 shrooms each, but each one of those was very potent and would basically turn into a solid blue log when dried. 1 gram of PE seemingly double the dose of regular cube.
Also I dunno what's up with PE spores I think the veil breaks way too late or never breaks because I could never get a print.
Will be trying them in a casing sometime in the future, i hope.

As far as PE goes, I understand that only 10% of the shrooms drop spores, thus making it harder to get a print. I also understand them to be quite potent, I have some incubating right now. Peace,Love,Happiness and Harmony. Hippie Chick

PE is a girl strain, I dont understand why a guy would want his shrooms to look like a cock.

Yeah. Get a good isolate going and you're really doing something with PE.
