This strain thread has already failed. The formatting is horrible. All of the info needs to be in the first post or it is going to be even less successful then the last one. Most newbs will skip right past this and ask stupid questions on the forum.

I already forget who came up with it, but I really like the idea of a Cube strain wiki.
Than we could sticky a thread explaining to newbs the minor variations. e.g. some strains tend to have stockier fruit bodies than others, some tend to look like a penis ect. But that all of them have the same growing parameters, yields, and potency.
We could go further and list a few of the favorite recommendations for newbs such as B+ EQ GT ect.. And make some guesses as to why these strains are often recommended to beginners. (sturdy fruit bodies ect. or whatever…)
Ending the thread with the wiki link for people that are interested in reading more into origins/history of all the different strains.

I don’t see Creeper or Z-Strain in the list.
You should probably note in there profiles that both of these strains originate from a rip-off site that has been around since I got into the hobby around 2002.
Z-Strain and Creepers, aka (Keepers Creepers) Both originated from this site are likely common cube re-named.
This is the site as it exists today. It’s a funny read. http://www.sporetradingpost.com/psychedelic_cafe.htm
I don’t really consider that as posting a source since no one in their right mind would buy from them.

z-strain
My best guess is that ralph started offering it to help expose the rip off website. But the dude just kept making up new names so its pretty much pointless to keep offering his made up strains. Its too much hassle to explain the whole story to everybody that isnt in the know, thus he just markets it as Z Strain.
Just do a search for Z strain prior to 2003.
Here is a start.

Well I don’t know what to tell you, there isn’t mutch that can be done for you if you are too stubborn to believe that a shroomery sponsor would offer a "fake" strain. Vendors will be vendors. Let me ask you this, if our sponsors are so honest, than why do they even mention potency in there descriptions? Why aren’t the vendors saying a cube is a cube is a cube like we have been saying for years?
The whole problem about the old strain thread is the info was taken from vendor sites and deemed misrepresentative an inaccurate.
But again if you want to be narrow minded enough to think that just because a specific vendor is a shroomery sponsor puts them at some sort if "god" status, there is nothing more I can do for people like you.

theres no reason to hate on me for asking simple question, and btw every strain has a diffrent effect on MY body and I notice the diffrent effects from each strain. so im sorry that you dont, so you need quit being so rude
Your right, I can’t really tell a difference between cubes. You’re also right that that I was a rude. And I apologize for it. Sometimes stress shows through in my typing. I’m actually a nice guy, I swear.
