This is true. Klinn, perhaps it would be better if your'e future posts regarding this strain were to refer to it as Mexican or Mexi-Cub which is what I believe it is that you have. PF carried the Mexi-Cub for a few years. It can produce very light and often sterile specimens. But Albino means devoid of pigment or color. I know that white is a color, but a true albino fruiting body is comprised of translucent fibers that reflect the dominant color in the light spectrum. White. Put them under a black light and they will turn purple with the dominant spectrum. I will be posting some albino pics soon where one can actually see thru the translucent cap.

Sterility being it's own animal and has nothing to to at all with "albino". For some reason though there is this huge misconception that Albino also means sterile.

Anyway, I don't mean to tell you how to post but please keep in mind there will be future generations coming here that will search using the word albino. We have a responsibility to them to keep history in it's correct place.

Thanks for sharing with us and keep up the good work!
