But I'll bet not repeatedly. I have, and have found absolutely no correlation with potency to substrate. A fact of cubes is their inherent inconsistency in potency. It even varies from flush to flush, and from mushroom to mushroom on a single flush, even with an isolated strain. I've had extremely potent mushrooms from every substrate, and I've had weak mushrooms from every single substrate.
Same can be said about sub strain too RR. Overall poo as well as rye, WBS have been very consistant for me I'm not saying poo won't produce weak shrooms it certainly can and that can also certainly be contributed to sub strain or the flush itself. I have pure isolates that are consistantly just as potent with no noticeable difference (genetically stable). What we are talking here when referring to sub strains varying in potency may all stem from multispore growth and not a single "clean" isolate. Many here need to realize also that in order to obtain good genetics one needs to isolate and that in itself is no guarantee but it certainly gives you your best chance. I would have to agree the reason for my differences in potency with the same substrain on different substrates may be the fact those were not pure isolates and simply multispore related.

i got lazy once and left 7 quarts of gt spawn sitting around for 3 months. I finally got around to using it, on some horse shit.there was absolutely no potency whatsoever in the few shrooms that grew. i gave them to a friend who ate a shit load and said he felt absolutely nothing.
don't leave your jars sitting around.

This makes my point exactly. Several other people have posted that over colonized jars make MORE potent mushrooms. It just shows that potency is genetic and not related to substrate. RR

Grogan said: Hpoo does not equal more potent... Quit spreading misinformation.
i beg to differ, brf shrooms are no where near as nice as poo shrooms, Quit spreading misinformation
deeper heartier subs make larger more potent shrooms, alkaloids build with time, quit harvesting RIGHT when the veil tears, u can let them sit till they open some BEFORE they sporulate.
5 inch rye/poo subs with 1 inch casing layers tend to yeild nice big shrooms with a good moisture level in sub/chamber, also, cloned fruit seems to work best, clone a big fruit maybe that phenotype will be upfront.

The thread didn't ask "how do I get a more potent mushroom" it asked "how do I get bigger mushrooms"
Stop bickering, and address the main point.
As I said earlier, those still look like pins, I think you need to let them mature more.

A 5" deep substrate layer of 5:1 poo:grain spawn in a monotub consistently spits out monsters for me. Also, the less fruitbodies competing for nutrients/water, the bigger they get. And yes, it is also definitely strain/substrain related.


131 gram EQ.

118 gram Hawaiian. Both grown on a deep layer of h/poo.

I have to say that I believe all factors come into play when dealing with the size they get.I have became a coir grower due to ease of use but they did grow bigger and I did get more flushes when using Hpoo. I usually go for a depth of substrate of 4 inches or so

Whaaat? Those fruits are sick! Nothing like one fruit drying out to a half ounce, eh?
