The magic mushroom variety Golden Teacher

The 1st place undoubtedly goes to this variety of magic mushrooms. Of unknown origin, the Golden Teacher is distinguished from other hallucinogenic mushrooms by its particular appearance. We can recognize it thanks to its thickness, its gold-colored hat marked with a brownish spot and its peduncle whose pigment is reminiscent of ivory.

Discovered 40 years ago, in 1980, this variety of hallucinogenic mushrooms is particularly appreciated for its ability to grow. It can take up to 14 days to consider a first harvest. The longest delay can result in a wait of 21 days. Moreover, it should be noted that the second flush of this mushroom culture will be larger than the first. It is a growing kit that remains simple to maintain and does not require any particular handling to cultivate it. 

But beware: the easy growth of hallucinogenic mushrooms does not mean that they are accessible to novices. It should be remembered that the power of the Golden Teacher is moderate or even strong. It can generate very deep and emotional effects depending on the tolerance of each individual. His experience does not stop at a simple trip, but at a spiritual journey relating to shamanism. Once under the influence of hallucinogenic mushrooms, the user tends to feel close to nature. This is how the Golden Teacher has a reputation for healing the mind and mind.

The Mc Kennaii grow kit

It is a variety of hallucinogenic mushrooms that deserves to be known by all psychonauts for many reasons. The first reason is that it is named after the famous ethnobotanist Terence McKenna. He was very interested in the subject of human evolution, hence his famous hypothesis of the “intoxicated ape”. Indeed, the majority of his speculations are explained by the role of hallucinogenic chemicals, shamanism and gaiaism. It is thanks to his desire to have psychedelics recognized as a responsible role in society that hallucinogenic mushrooms became known. 


However, the grow kit remains delicate to handle; It takes easily 3 weeks before you see the first magic mushrooms grow. But this does not call into question the effectiveness of the McKennaii. On the contrary, its power is reputed to surpass the Copelandia Cyanescens, bearing the nickname Hawaiian. The magic mushroom causes hours of very pronounced visual effects, in addition to a glaring improvement on the cognitive and creative aspect. The feeling of joy and positivity is at the rendezvous, you will not miss the laughter that these hallucinogenic mushrooms reserve for you.

For fans of philosophical travel, the Mc Kennaii is the ideal variety for this type of experience. As you can see, this is a very popular choice for experienced psychonauts.

The Mexican grow kit

It is important to finish this ranking with one of the best psilocybe cubensis. Named “flesh of the gods” by the indigenous tribes of South America, the Mexican is the 1st variety to be recognized as a psychoactive living being.

Indeed, it was in 1958 that the Swiss chemist Albert Hoffmann identified the presence of psilocybin and psilocin as active components of this living being. Although the Mexican is the patriarch of hallucinogenic mushrooms, his growth speed is not exemplary. It is necessary to arm yourself with a lot of patience compared to other varieties before a first harvest.

It’s an expectation that turns out to be rather profitable: the trip is often described as euphoric. Its power is suitable for beginner psychonauts and guarantees particularly pleasant visualizations. The feeling of freedom, of opening oneself to new perspectives on oneself and on others are the expected effects of this variety.
