How Clean

All spore syringes, vials and swabs are produced right here by us at Cylocybe using spore prints sourced from professional cultivation labs throughout the world. While there is no such thing as a sterile spore syringe (that would be silly), our spore products should contain everything you want without any nasty surprises like trichoderma or bacteria from a staff member watching the clock and picking their nose at the same time. The only person trusted with this job at Cylocybe is Nick, the co-founder who treats every single spore product with the same high level of precision.

Useful

• Syringe is made of polypropylene. Pressure-cooker safe (if you want to re-use).

A Cube is a Cube

Spores contain an almost infinite mix of genetics. If a customer in a country where it is legal to cultivate this strain did so, then the spores wouldn't necessarily produce the same-looking mushroom they dropped from, or share its exact characteristics.

This is why cultivators in countries where it's legal to cultivate this species share live liquid cultures (which are of course banned in most countries, including here in the UK) and do not start from spores. Even gourmet mushroom farms never start from spores, because it'd be a genetic lottery.

There are a few small exceptions to this — for example Leucistic and Albino strains, whose spores will generally all produce whitish mushrooms — but even that exception wouldn't mean all the other traits of the mushroom the spores dropped from would be the same.

Shops tend to keep these facts from customers. This is why the saying "A cube is a cube" exists.

We're telling you this not because we think you'd intend to cultivate them, but because it's interesting to know (and it feels right to say). We've had this on our site for years, buried somewhere like the FAQ page, but now it's right here on the product page for all to read.

Legal Disclaimer

Do not attempt the cultivation of this species as even the mycelium would contain Psilocybin - a hallucinogenic chemical banned in the UK since 2005.
