Isolating a good cubie for printing

Hey guys. To all those advanced cultivators out there, I have a quick question. I don't grow for bulk or speed so I perform a full cycle each cultivation. From spore to adult, over and over. I'm wondering what specifications if any does a cubie have to make to get your attention for a spore print. Does the flush number matter, or size, or growth rate. What attracts you to that cubie? Or does this not matter and any of the cubies in a flush are adequate, as long as they are big enough to be worthy of a spore print. What I'm trying to say is one cubie better then another when it comes to printing. I've always just randomly selected a flush and made a bunch of prints. Thanks guys. If that was confusing I'm sorry.

Nah man I understand.
Until recently I didn't think it really mattered which one you took a print of. However I am seeing that traits of mushrooms are in fact passed down inot generations.
Pick your healthiest, fattest, biggest shroom from the first flush. I think that is the best one. Keep doing this for generations and I believe that the possibilites that you get better frutis and flushes are there.

I'd be interested in seeing a comparison study after, say, ten generations of selective printing. I've always heard the biggest, fastest fruit should come from the healthiest, most successful colonizer, and therefore have the best genes, both in terms of resistancy to your environment's unique contamination profile and in terms of its ability to thrive in your incubating conditions, for whatever indoor cultivation tek you prefer. This process of selection I believe is called domestication.
