This question is for anyone and everyone--if you could ONLY grow ONE strain for whatever reason, which would it be???

I'd say that my favorite strain so far is Ecuadorian. It colonizes fast and has a nice paranoid free, trippy, giggly trip

I have had really good luck with B+. It colonizes real quickly and the flushes are not that bad either. Next to that I would pick Pink Buffalo.

Hi there! =) Until now my favorites are "Albino A+" That is a very potent shroom, very visual. I'm trying now the Mckennaii strain and waiting to see results.

Wow, 16 years. This might be the oldest thread bump i've seen yet.
These aren't strains either bud, they're varieties.

There is a ton of confusion with variety and strains. There are definitions with both being used suitably.
Even with plants like cannabis.
And then you have cultivar and variety. In plants a variety can only be grown from seed and a cultivar has to come from a cutting.
But this is mushrooms were talking but there is no specifics I can find for it. In general a strain is a varietal mutation (spore color, albinism, etc.) so in that sense AA+ most certainly is a strain lol.

AA+ is a variety. A strain in Mushrooms would be an isolate.

Where is an actual source for this info? lol I'm not saying your wrong. I'm just saying that all I can really find when I look it up talks about plants and I find what I said and what you said.

I've seen this come up quite a few times, below's a clear example I could find quick. Full comment for context, the most important bit bold underlined, etc.
You can also search strain limited to tc's and the comments are all along these lines, every ms is 1000's of strains. Labels on syringes are varieties.

Roostorf said: One thing I am still confused about is how mushrooms reproduce. I know spores lead to new mycelia but are they reproducing sexually or asexually? Do spores need to come in contact with spores from nearby mushrooms the way gametes do in plants and animals to recombine new lines of DNA? Also when is it appropriate to isolate strains and such? If one spore germinates does it make more than one strain or is strain isolation required when a multi-spore inoculation occurs and all the spores kinda mix together and you want to separate the most rhizomorphic out of the bunch?
Spores germinate make monokaryotic mycelium
When two monokaryotic hyphae interact successfully(compatible mating type) they will form dikaryotic mycelium
It's nearly impossible to get monokaryotic growth without lab work. A single drop of spore solution has thousands of spores. So youll always be getting dikaryotic growth
You'll actually have thousands of dikaryotic strains in a single grow A strain is one dikaryotic mating. Theres going to be thousands of these events.
The strains all work together. Theyll fuse via anastomosis largely by the time the first flush happens. You still have all the genetics from multiple strains but this is how they work together.
Rhizomorphic means nothing. Dont look for rhizomorphic growth look for healthy growth.
