Ok i just got done with my first grow using pink buffalo ...they were mighty potent but only lasted maybe two and a half hour but had great visuals ...my next attempt im growing a few different strain, EQ, pink buffalo and golden teacher....i was wondering if anybody has any preferences on shrooms that may give longer trips or maybe even a different type of trip....i ate 63 grams of the pink buffalo and it was mind blowing absolutly loved em but just didnt last long...any advice would be greatly appreciated

all cube trips very mostly from how they were grown and the geneits of the strain you have. No two cubes are the same strain they just have the same origin. Each time a a shroom is grown it is differant from the one growing next to it in the same tray. No two shrooms will have the excat same chemical content.
I like pr, mazatapec,tc,pf,mal,gt

Im going with 3 strains that are fast and aggressive colonizers two of which are resistant to contam and also the fastest fruiters according to Spores 101, I am getting my Koh Samui, Z Strain and John Allen Prints ordered tomorrow. Looking quite forward to it.
As for strength word is that PESA, and Puerto Rican are considered highly "toxic" for cubes. Though I have read one sight or another claiming them to be stronger Spores101 on Puerto and one of the other vendors says something about PESA, I have yet to have any conclusive evidence to wether or not this is true.
If you would like to step up in strength maybe research what it would take to cultivate Psilocybe Cyanescens (according to its pharmacology the most potent Psilocybe around), or Psilocybe Semilanceata (Liberty Caps) or move on to the non Psilocybes.

there is no coverall answer here there have been people who have tripped balls off of, lets say, amazonians, and there are other people who had almost not effects at the same dose. The way you grow them has quite bit to do with it. From what i understand, cubes grown or cased in horse manure are generally stronger than those grown using cakes. I will be using horse manure for the first time and i will let you know, Also i am growing lapi yai for the first time and my pint jars were fully colonized in 5.5 days using rye berries at 82'F. That is very fast, i broke them down in prep for the manure casing and they have recovered and regrown all damaged mycelium in 48 hours with no contam yet. So far i am impressed... but the million dollar question, How potent are they going to be?

He's not asking for a strain that's more potent than others. He's asking about varying types of trips that can be achieved through different strains, and more specifically if any of us have got a preference as to which strain delivers the best trip.
I can't really give you any suggestions camel, as I've only tried 2 strains so far and neither were particularly amazing (B+ and cambodian). However both were slightly different feeling trips, despite being grown using the exact same methods. Cambodian was something of a more hyper trip, especially on the come-up. B+ was more somewhat more sedated/chill, less visual, and more deep thinking - also I noticed a slight uncomfortable tightness in my chest throughout these trips. Or at least that's how they effected me, and I tripped multiple times on each.

Like Onetime said, all mushrooms will have a slightly different chemical makeup. To even out the potency of my shrooms, I like to dry them and grind them down to a powder. Regardless of the strain, I've always had my best trips from these powdered shrooms. You can mix strains like this too.

I believe the length of trip has more to do with your own body chemistry and metabolysm then strain. RR

In my experience with relatively few strains, I would have to say Penis Envy's really are my favorite.
First, they are extremely fun to grow. Sometimes they need a little more TLC, in my experience atleast, but they once they are fruiting they grow fast and HUGE (on hpoo atleast).
Second, the trip is so smooth. I always seem to get to my peak without a problem. It is such a smooth ride, that I really can't discern the peak. Also, I have anxiety problems, but on PE, I never once have had problems with anxiety, which is amazing to me.
Third, it's fun to walk up to my friends, tell them to "eat a dick", and then pull out a huge penis looking mushroom.

I'm with roger on this one. my girlfriend trips on 1 gram everytime no matter what strain. onetime i gave ger 1.5 and it sent her to another place for 8 hours as oppose to 4 hours which is usuall. said she never thought people could actually get that far out there. i ate the same dose the same night and came to a thresh hold high and can off from it in 4 hours same as usuall.
as for mind blowing strains i always go with the burma, cambodian, african transkei, south american. cambo burma,& african are very visual but the south american is a body high, 4 long nights that you need to see somewhat straight but feelin' great.
