No big difference.

You will however experience some difference between different species like Ps. Semilanceata vs. Ps. Cubensis or vs. Ps. Cyanescens. Cube is a Cube they say, although there are some small differences.

kinda what i was figureing! just thought id make sure before i decided to get em. wish i picked more cyans! though these will have to get me thru to fall i suppose.

Thanks for the response!

[Coopdog]

If I am not mistaken, cyans are 2-3 times as strong as cubensis species, so they might disappoint you a little bit. :)

I moved this to the Fungi Fforum since it deals with info on the strain. I also changes the thread title as well.

[dub504]

Just eat more!!!!

[mav360]

im fully aware of the potency difference between libs, cyans, and cubes i grew up in the pnw its easy to get intrested in.

was just wondering if one type of cube is stronger then the other was all.

[Freaky]

Well cube strain potency is all subjective so guess you'll have to eat different cubes to form your own standing on it.

[MLBjammer]

I have found that any cubie that is a cross of two strains or an albino seems to hit me heavier than other strains I have ingested. Some examples: PE, Falbino, Redboy. Of course, my expeiences are quite subjective, so others may disagree.

Amazons are typically a very good cubensis strain, though.

[mav360]

thanks for moving that and the title is better!

Im gonna take the advice and try a few different strains of cubensis to see if i can notice any differences,

Thanks everyone for all the good words!

Golden Teachers and Equadorians have a beautiful cerebral and spiritual buzz and I went farther on less of those than I have with anything else. My buddy gave me these strong little cubies he grows that are called Master Blasters, but I dunno what the proper name of them is.

I also liked the treasure coast strain a lot. I found conversely that B+ was weak by comarison with weak visuals and buzz, but big huge fruits, so more to enjoy.

Hope this is informative for you. Peace and be safe bro...

foaf is of the opinion that there is more differences in potency and quality of the trip between substrains than between strains in a given species. foafs opinion that this is why some people will say that a given strain is weak and another person will say it was the most visual strain they have had. with cubensis for example, foaf has had very strong b+ while coopdogs has expressed his experience with b+ as weak.
there are some super potent amazonian substrains-one of foafs buddys has been raving madly to foaf that the PES-A gives him visions of possible futures in lucid dreams, the outcomes of which can supposedly be changed in real life. said buddy weighs ~300lb and can trip on 2 grams of amazonians. hes the only buddy that talks about seeing the future(lol) so its foafs opinion that the character of the trip is also very dependant on the person ingesting them.

Nutrition and growing conditions can play a potency role as well. I too am a fan of the humble but faithful ecuador, but I found that wood grown cubies can be potent as...Yum!
Some strains don't seem to do well on wood though and I used a shaving/sawdust bed with a fresh spring grasses cover and watered through it - kept throwing fresh grass on top when the other was sun baked.
Between the wood and composting on top, when those cubies came we were
:eusa_danc:bow:
very colorfully blown to Mars.
Now I'm looking at cubie strains that will thrive in wood based subs - so far the cambodians didn't seem to like it but doing B+, Texans and Ecuador testing this Spring to see....

[IncredibleEdible]

I was unaware there were strains of cube that thrived on wood..?

[curenado]

Some will run but have a struggle fruiting - the strain I was talking about above ran great but made about 1/3 patch of fruits. Hoping to find a good "omnivore" like B+ that will both run and fruit better...
BUT - never experiment unless you have ten! That way you can ruin 6 and still have happiness right?
The first time this happened for us it was a total accident - hence we are trying to experiment a little as we are unable to backtrack - we thought wood lovers went into that patch and weren't looking for fruit until that Fall - not cubies and not in the heat of July here...but we had a lot of strains going then and more folks in house and so we decided that human error was more likely than "cyan adaptation" :lol:

Cambodians and B+ in my experience so far. I hear penis envy and transkei are the stronger cubes.

[psilosylum]

Looking forward to seeing how my B+ compares here soon :D

[Fulano]

I guarantee you are gonna love them. I had a great time on them and mine were from brf which means yours should be even stronger being from bulk. Good vibes your way!!

[SlimJim]

The best species of cubensis is cubensis.

:ballbat: psilosylum...

@rob
Cubensis are pretty much the same, even from strain to strain. Except Penis Envy (and the variations herein: Albino Penis Envy and Penis Envy Uncut) is much more potent than the rest of the "strains". PE doesn't grow so good on BRF cakes, but'll explode in bulk. They also take much longer to reach full maturity and they don't drop spores

(commonly)

.

Basically, besides PE, it doesn't really matter. The thing is, as "strains" get passed around from person to person, the user is growing from MS, achieving a completely different substrain than even the isolated fruit the print came from. In that one print, lies millions of substrains, each slightly different and varied than the last, yet unique. Potency from someone's genetics with the same "strain" could have a much lesser or better set of genetics. I dislike B+ and Hawaiians but I'm sure there are people who could tell you some of the best visuals they have, LOL.

Wouldn't that be species?
