Okay, back on track... Good!
Now, I agree that all cubies are BASICALLY the same potency give or take a half a gram or so. At least the ones I've done. HOWEVER... They each have their own individual visual paterns, shapes and colors. They also each provide a slightly different energy level and wavyness of peaks and valleys in the potency of the highlights and lowlights.
Can anyone else agree with this view besides Roadkill?

Ok. I am beginning to understand your position. I agree that amongst the strains, the potency will be very close. Concerning the visuals, though, in my experience, it always varies even when using the same strain.

I my experience, "street" shrooms were usually fairly low potency. I suspect these were picked wild and dried poorly.

In reply to:

There's where you're missing one very important factor...
Music generates images. If you listen to the exact same music in the same order and do the exact same dose of the exact same strain, in every trip, you'll see the exact same images at the exact same points in the music.
Now change ONLY the strain. Totally different images will appear.

Music generates images for you, but my visuals are always free form. The visuals I see are not really based on the setting. It has more to do with the set -- my current state of mind and what I'm currently thinking about.

well, can this be a fair way to test? wouldnt the persons mood, setting, etc...have some affect which might give a different feeling to a trip?

I've never had the same thoughts, same feelings, same mood, or always the same company and yet, always the same music and always the same visuals until changing strain. Then my very familiar movie was changed to a different one.
It was like someone changed the reel in the projector from the film I'd been watching for 4 years to some strange film I'd never seen before.

Yeah, set does play a huge part in my trips. So far, I've done field picked, cult. GC, and cult Amazons. My favorite is still field picked, for some reason, my trips never feel as "natural" when I eat cultivated mushrooms, but this is probably just in my head.

It would be interesting to perform an experiment where you had the same music, but ingested one of the two strains (unknown to you) in gelcaps and recorded your experience.

Hmm, you guys do know about the General Questions forum right?
Just that this is not mushroom culitvation related, maybe just to remind you all that the General Questions forum is perfect for this kind of discussion.

Music will generate images for you too... Next time you're peaking put on a good pair of headphones and listen to the 11 minute version of "Time Has Come Today" by The Chambers Brothers (LOUD) (available on Kazaa). Tell me that doesn't totally blow your mind!

I'm not arguing that music can "blow your mind" because I experience this all the time. I'm just saying that when I listen to the same music, I never have the same experience even when using the same strain. The relative potency or intensity of the experience may be similar, but the visuals are always different.

Wouldn't have to be in caps, I could just hand someone three bags of 5.5 grams of each of three strains and tell them to pick one and grind it in the coffee grinder and dump it in my juice and put the other 2 back in the freezer... When I come down, I could tell them which 2 bags were left without looking.
