Magic mushrooms: discover all the varieties at your disposal
Magic mushrooms or 'shrooms contain different amounts of psilocybin and therefore serve a wide range of functions. Some varieties generate the typical effect of excessive laughter, others are more suitable for powerful trips and indoors, and others are perfect for microdosing. Alchimia offers you more than 50 genetics from different producers so you can choose the one that best suits your needs.
Growing magic mushrooms at home quickly and efficiently
There are a variety of ways to grow magic mushrooms at home: in a mini-greenhouse, in a breathable bag, or, like the All-In-One Bags, in the bag itself. Each of them is adapted to the type of grower and their needs. Growing in a mini-greenhouse is an efficient way to grow more than one loaf of Psilocybe cubensis in a controlled environment; the breathable bags allow you to maintain individualised temperature and humidity for each cake, and the Mycobags are perfect for doing nothing more than just watching them grow before harvest.
Magic mushroom cakes:
For hallucinogenic mushroom cakes, you need a controlled environment with 80% humidity (minimum) and an average temperature of between 22 and 24 degrees. To achieve this, we offer the ideal cultivation material: a heated mini-greenhouse, humidifiers or sprayers, tubular heaters, or heating blankets. Everything depends on the size of the crop you want to grow. If the environmental parameters are right, large harvests of psilocybin mushrooms are usually obtained within three weeks.
Growing bags:
Mushroom growing bags are much easier to use than cakes. They avoid having to control humidity and contamination, and allow you to focus on maintaining a stable temperature. This is because the bag itself acts as a greenhouse and does not have to be opened. This innovative product generates much higher yields than cakes and makes the job easier for any grower.
Psilocybe cubensis spores, vials, and syringes:
We offer a wide variety of genetics in these formats so that the most curious grower in the world of mycology can test and produce from spore to harvest. This requires a completely sterilised space and the necessary material, most of which is available on our website.
Frequently asked questions about hallucinogenic mushrooms
How are magic mushrooms dried and preserved?
Hallucinogenic mushrooms are best dried and preserved in a dark, dry environment with air circulation and, if possible, in a food dryer. Ideally, they should be vacuum-packed and stored in the freezer, but a glass jar in the fridge or a dark drawer in a cool place in the house is also a good option.
What is included in a magic mushroom grow kit?
A growing kit includes a block of fully colonised mycelium (usually Psilocybe cubensis), a plastic container with a lid, a bag with an air filter, and detailed instructions. You just need to add water and maintain the right temperature and humidity conditions.
How many harvests can I get from one cake?
Most kits allow for 2 to 4 harvests if properly cared for. The first harvest is usually the most abundant. Yields may vary depending on variety and environmental conditions.
