I have albino A+ and they are rather slow. I would definitely go with the costa ricas. If you want a real visual strain maybe try some Alcabenzis?
You could also go for some PE/APE, they are really great strains and known to be super potent and visual.

Just slammed on 3g of Costa Ricans for my B-Day, and they were very colorful 8)

Easy grow, pretty fast, average size fruits (not into the forearm size meals you see some places)

Minced with a big knife and swallowed without chewing is my favorite way to dose so far. Slug it down with some of your favorite fruit juice and you won't even taste them, not to mention you'll get your Vit C along with it. Friend did chew them and he said they tasted like sunflower seed shells rather than putrid, make-you-gag shrooms.

Came on in 10-15 minutes with the peak @ 2 hours or so. I noticed some restless leg syndrome (couldn't move them enough/get comfortable) but the other people I tripped with sat still no prob.

Watched "MicroCosmos" for the peak, which I HIGHLY recomend if you've not tripped to it. Saw it for the first time in Amsterdam at the Grasshopper Coffeeshop. My advice is to put some decent heavy beat techno to the movie as it's rather quiet for most of it.

After the peak, I noticed strong waves of visuals coming and going. Would think "I'm ready for bed" then WHAM!!! TRIBBINBALLS!!! First 3 hours were very colorful, then mainly shape-shifting/morphing after that.

About 3.5 hours into the trip we found "UHF" (Wierd Al, Mike Richards) on cable, and we laughed our f'n asses off! Haven't had that much fun since Amsterdam TBH. Whole trip lasted about 6 hours... not bad for 3 grams.

Very nice variety in my opinion. I'll definately be printing this one to run again in the future! Good luck chosing!

I mean I've heard that the first flush on the Penis Envy varieties often don't come out as true mushrooms, they'll be mutie blobs. Most times, people say that the second and subsequent flushes turn out normal though. I've not fruited mine yet, so this is all just from posts I've read here and there. From what I understand, you'll either get them or you won't... not too much you can do to stop it if it's going to happen.

Also, most "albino" variations are slightly less productive than "normal" versions of the same variety. They can also be a bit slower as Blackhash said. The APE that I got from SW is actually listed as a "novelty" variety... I believe this is so you don't quite expect from this variety what you would from others, but I've always been a fan of the unusual and less common so I'm not bothered by a smaller flush. 8)
