What is the highest yielding strain in bulk and are there any side by side comparisons?

Here's what I've got so far: 3 large filter patch bags of pan goliath colonized substrate yielded about 250g dried. 4 large filter patch bags of Brazillian, substrain number 2, yielded about 170. Braz 3 was lower. They're not totally done flushing yet, so the numbers aren't exact.
Anyway, I was surprised that the pan's yielded so well. At this point I'm growing for yield primarily and personal experimentation second, so it makes sense to try and find a strain that makes the most of my time and $. ?

any variety (strain) of cubensis works man.. none are any better then the other. i've done several bulk grows of several strains. I get about a pound dry per first flush, per "Strain" no matter which strain.
they are all cubes... and yes, a cube is a cube is a cube is a cube.

Thanks jeetered, I've been reading your log, looks good. I want one of those prints :-)
But anyway, if you notice in my first pot, the pan cyan's yielded 96% more, per volume of substrate, so why even bother growing cubensis? Unless, of course there are some particularly heavy yielding strains out there. Which there are.
How much substrate yields a lb for you, and via what tek?

Well I disagree with the cube is a cube mentality. Especially when it comes to the subject of how a strain yields.
For example, I just finished an F+ grow in a large mono tub. The F+ strain is a beautiful cube, and provides a great trip, BUT it has hollow stems. Thus making them weigh far less than any other strain I've grown. In the tub I grew them in I only yielded 6 ounces dry off that single tub on the first flush. Normally with other strains I got around 12-16 ounces dry in a single flush per large tub (I use 36 gallon tubs). Its not that I didn't get a ton of mushrooms. I did, I had more than my dehydrator could handle actually, but since the mushrooms have a hollow stem they dried to be far less than they should have.
With that being said, here are the strains I recommend that will dry heavy and give you a large dry yield.
This are strains I've personally grow, and I have experience with. I'm sure there are others out there that dry heavy also.
PE6 - Great strain, grow large and almost loose no weight when dried. They are very heavy after being dried and they give an awesome trip
Mexicube, grows in abundance and has medium sized fruits and drys pretty nice, I average over a pound per flush, per tub with this strain all the time. Its more of a body high to me though and I stopped growing it.
EQ, large yield and large fruits and good potency. Drys very nicely.
Thai Lipa Yai, pretty similar to EQ
Texans, small meaty fruits that loose almost no water. They are hard as a rock and weigh a ton. I ended up with 18 ounces dry on a single flush in a single large tub with these. The trip is pretty fun, mostly a body buzz but its a great trip one of my favorites.
Those are the only strains I mess with now a days. I'm going to keep growing the F+ because I really enjoy the trip. Its nice and mellow with really good visuals.
My all time favorite strain hands down though right now is PE6. One good flush of that strain and I'm set for a year. They pack a mean punch.
Also look into cloning if you want to increase yields. Thats the only way to make sure you are getting good yields time after time.
Most people will say a cube is a cube its all how you grow it. This is mostly true, but I have noticed big time differences with each strain I've grown. Just my own experience. Results probably vary and the only real way to make sure you get an awesome sub strain that will produce constant results is through cloning and isolations.

exactly. potency is determined genetically as is most everything else, I would say. a cube is pretty much a cube from multispore. it's when you get into cloning and utilizing the best genetics that subtleties will be noticed. that is unless you get really lucky from a multispore.
for example: I've grown F+ that didn't have hollow stems.

hahah trippinteddy!
Those F+ I grew had hollow stipes. But the trip was AWESOME, When folks use multispore, that's when i say "a cube is a cube is a cube" and yes, it's when you get to clones and isolates that really make a strain show it's true colors.
So teddy, Since i sent you that F+ you're talking about, how about a pe6 spore or two? no pressure~~!
and that was a very informative well thought out post man, good job. You actually answered the dudes question a lot better then I did. I just knew he was working with multispore so it really doesn't matter.

PM me sir!
Yes the trip is very nice on the F+ its one of my new favorites for sure. My only beef with F+ is that it had a bunch of aborts and those hollow stems. Other than that it truly is a great strain. I can wait to work with it once I get a good substrain going.

haha, I gotta be honest, jeetered, I had a feeling you didn't know what you were talking about when I pm'd you, but now - now I'm sure of it! You said:

Maybe it was unclear, but Quote:
Brazillian, substrain number 2
happens to be cloned... I think you may have assumed I was working with multispore. Anyway, the strains I grow out are all isolated on agar.
Thank you 'Teddy, that was very helpful. Anyone else?

Thats not me my good man. It is the mod LOKI... pm him to get him to take it down.
