Psilocybe Cyanescens
Spore prints are from wild specimens!!
The Psilocybe cyanescens is a sister species to the Psilocybe azurescens, also noted as one of the most potent psilocybe mushrooms. Like azurescens it's a strain for outdoor cultivation and a woodlover that requiers a substrate of woodchips.
During the winter the cultivation is started indoor by inoculating sterilized rye. Once the rye is fully colonized it is used as spawn to inoculate a larger amount of sterilized woodchips. In the spring the colonized woodchips are used to inoculate more non-sterile woodchips in outdoor beds. Fruits can be expected in the fall.
Temperature during colonization: 21 – 25 ° C
Temperature during fruiting: 10 – 15 ° C (outside)
Sporeprints from a outdoor mushroom are considered as not sterile. Growing a outdoor mushroom from spores requires some agar skills to obtain a clean and healthy culture. The use of a liquid culture syringe gives you the benefit to directly start with a healthy and clean culture, without going through the process of cleaning spores on agar.
