First of all there isn't any strain that grows small.
If you want small mushrooms then try "casing" and do it with a small substrate layer and a small casing layer.
*The mushrooms will then grow small.
I try-ed casing 2 times and they all grew no more than 1 1/2 inch. I did a little more research and discovered that it was substrate layer and the casing layer that needed to be thicker...
On my 3rd try of casing BAM I got 3 and 4 inch mushrooms.
*So its all about the environment that effects size, NOT strain!
-------------------- Hey Just take some time and look at this pic here, below... Its a Smile Face ON THE CAP! WHAT ARE THE CHANCES? AND THE OTHER AN 8???!!!! IS this a SIGN?

-------------------- as they said in some movie(i don't remember which one); a belief is a dangerous thing, people will kill over it; instead of believing you need to find your facts and then have an opinionated idea that you are willing to change in light of new evidence

And the sky is neon red. 
Some of the biggest i've ever seen have come from KSS
I'm searching for one in particular right now...A block of mycelium that grew 4 HUGE ones, most beautiful mushroom i've ever seen...The cap gets a reddish orange and almost has specks like on aminita muscura's, AND these were frickin' big.
I'll post back whenever I find it.
