Magic Mushroom Grow Kits are special boxes of mycelium which (if treated in the right way) can grow Psilocybin (Magic) Mushrooms for you! DutchGrowKits has two main strains of Magic Mushroom Grow Kits: Copelandia and Cubensis.

Copelandia Mushrooms

The Copelandia Mushroom (Panaeolus Cyanescens or Copelandia Cyanescens) is one of the most potent mushrooms in the world. Thought to have Asian origin, it is suspected to have been brought by livestock from the Philippines to Hawaii in 1800’s. This is why it is sometimes referred to as the Hawaiian Mushroom.

Cubensis Magic Mushrooms

Psilocybe Cubensis is a mushroom of which the main active components are psilocybin and psilocin. The mushrooms are red cinnamon-brown to golden-brown in color and when bruised, they turn blue/purple when bruised by oxidation of their psilocin content. Cubensis fruits are best in a 100% moist atmosphere. Fruit bodies will grow in less than saturated air, but the primordia will not form very well. Cubensis will be much more tolerant of changes in humidity when a coating is used.

The difference in effects

The Copelandia Mushroom is smaller than the Psilocybe Cubensis Mushroom. Do not be fooled however by its small size. Apart from being 4 to 5 times stronger than Cubensis. Its chemical makeup is very different. Copelandia mushrooms when fresh contain a much higher psilocin to psilocybin ratio and this is what gives them their signature visual trip. The clear geometrical patterns one experiences during a Copelandia trip are more detailed and brighter than the visuals from Cubensis. The Copelandia trip also produces a low body load and this tends to give the user a sense of calm and wellbeing.
