Shroom Kits Available and Their Appearance
1. Avery’s Albino
Avery’s Albino is a genuine albino strain characterized by distinctively white spores. These mushrooms require careful cultivation due to their rarity and delicate nature. Compared to other P. cubensis varieties, they are shorter in stature with robust caps and stems.
2. Aztec God
These mushrooms boast an impressive size with broad, light yellow caps and robust stems. Upon drying, the Aztec Gods undergo a transformation, which appears slightly diminished in size and texture, with some fading of their vibrant hues.
3. Cambodian
The caps of Cambodian mushrooms boast a striking gold hue and often display a flat to convex shape. Usually petite in size, from half an inch to three inches in diameter, they reveal narrow, gray gills underneath.
Resting beneath the cap is its stem, recognized by its white coloration and hollow interior. It stands at a height of two to six inches and measures about half an inch in thickness.
4. Golden Teachers
Golden Teacher magic mushrooms display a distinctive appearance, characterized by golden to light brown caps adorned with yellow or white speckles and a robust white stem. These caps take on a bell-shaped form, although variations include conical, flat, or irregular shapes. Their size spans from 1 to 8 centimetres in diameter, while the stems measure between 4 to 8 centimetres in length and 0.2 to 0.7 centimetres in thickness.
5. Malabar
Malabar mushrooms have thick, fleshy stems accompanied by relatively modest caps. A delicate web-like veil adorns the underside of the cap and vanishes upon drying. The caps exhibit a gentle curve and a yellowish-brown hue that deepens towards the center as they mature. Initially gray, the gills transition to a darker black shade with age.
The stems of the Malabar strain are robust and bulky, 4 to 6 inches long, and at their peak ripeness, they sport a pale brown coloration.

Why Grow Magic Mushrooms
There are two reasons to grow mushrooms: recreational use or medicinal reasons.
Recreational Use
Recreational use involves the consumption of substances for purposes other than medical necessity. Individuals who engage in recreational use primarily want to experience the psychoactive effects. Many individuals seek a sense of euphoria or a "high" to elevate their mood temporarily.
Medicinal Use
The active compound found in magic mushrooms, known as psilocybin, has been the subject of numerous studies indicating promising benefits ranging from alleviating depression to effectively managing pain. One area of particular interest is its potential in treating Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), where ongoing research seeks to understand its impact better.
Michael P. Bogenschutz, Director of NYU Langone Center for Psychedelic Medicine, and associates conducted a meticulous double-blind clinical trial aimed at exploring the advantages of psilocybin for AUD.
Over the 32-week double-blind phase, the psilocybin group exhibited a decrease in the frequency of heavy drinking days compared to the diphenhydramine group. There was also a noticeable reduction in mean daily alcohol consumption, measured by the number of standard drinks consumed per day within the psilocybin group.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to use grow kits?
- Remove the lid from the kit and fill the container with water until completely submerged. Replace the lid securely and allow it to soak for 9–12 hours.
- After soaking, remove the lid and rinse it under running water. Drain any excess water from the kit.
- Pour approximately clean tap water into the provided grow bag. Gently place the soaked grow kit into the grow bag with the water. Spray water only once on the inner sides of the bag during setup.
- Fold the top of the grow bag twice and secure it with binder clips. Position the bag in a well-lit area with indirect daylight and consistent warmth between 23–27°C. It can be advantageous to place the kit slightly elevated.
How long does it take to grow magic mushrooms?
You'll start noticing the emergence of the first magic mushrooms within 2-3 weeks after initiating the growth process. Harvesting occurs around 14-21 days after activating the growing kit.
What does it mean when no mushrooms are growing?
If your mycelium isn't showing signs of growth, it's likely due to fluctuations in temperature or humidity. Maintaining a clean substrate is also necessary to prevent contamination that could affect the growth of shrooms.
