Tips on Buying Magic Mushrooms & Psilocybin Spores

With regular news headlines proclaiming the benefits of psilocybin therapy, there is increased interest in learning how to obtain psilocybin-containing mushrooms. Should you consult with someone you know? Can you purchase them online? Should you try growing your own mushrooms?

This article examines numerous options to assist you in making an informed decision. Whatever path you take, keep in mind that psilocybin is still a controlled substance in the majority of countries, so you should familiarize yourself with the law in your area so you know what questions to ask.

The Psychedelic Revival

Many historians believe that indigenous tribes have been consuming Psilocybe mushrooms for thousands of years. However, as a result of the psychedelic renaissance, fresh research investigating the efficacy of psilocybin therapy has begun to proliferate. Several studies now indicate that psilocybin has the potential to help with treatment-resistant depression, end-of-life distress, obsessive compulsive disorder, eating disorders, and substance-use disorders, including alcohol and tobacco addiction. This has resulted in an increase in interest in the usage of psilocybin mushrooms, not just for high-dose experiences, but also as a tool for microdosing. Check out our article on Microdosing 101: The Benefits of Microdose Therapy, to see all the therapeutic benefits of microdosing. 

Microdosing is a technique that uses sub-perceptual doses of a substance such as psilocybin or LSD to produce an ongoing benefit such as increased creativity, energy, and focus. Because they are structurally related to serotonin and dopamine, psilocybin and LSD are common alternatives for microdosing regimens (i.e., tryptamines or phenethylamines, respectively). Both of these neurotransmitters stimulate the 5-HT2A receptor in the body, which has been shown to promote neuroplasticity and brain processes such as cognition, learning, and memory. You can take a look all our microdosing capsules and other shrooms products in our online shrooms dispensary.

These and other results may have you thinking about the advantages of trying psilocybin for yourself. However, unless you intend to forage for mushrooms on your own, you may be at a loss on where to begin.

Can’t I Just Get Magic Truffles? 

Truffles are mycelium- not mushrooms. While the majority of mushroom cultivation focuses on mushroom growth, the fruiting body is not the only specialized structure created by mycelium. A “truffle” is a psilocybin-containing fungus that produces a psilocybin-containing fungus. The “truffle” is not a real truffle, but rather a dense underground structure called a sclerotium. Sclerotia are hardened masses of mycelium that are utilized to store nutrients and allow the fungus to withstand lengthy periods of drought. Sclerotia-producing plants are widely farmed in the United States and other nations.

Some species of Psilocybe such as Psilocybe mexicana, Psilocybe galindoi, and Psilocybe tampanensis are cultivated to generate “magic truffles”. Because truffles are not technically “mushrooms,” some individuals may wonder if they can be legally purchased. In fact, when a change in Dutch regulations rendered magic mushrooms illegal to sell in the country, numerous Amsterdam cafés used a legal loophole to continue selling spores and mycelium.

Where Can I Buy Magic Mushrooms?

The internet is an obvious starting point for many people. With all the different laws in different regions and states and cities all around the globe, it’s tough to know where you can find quality magic mushrooms. In places like Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, etc. you can definitely find shroom dispensary stores all over the place, however it’s always a risk going to physical stores due to the fact that there’s always the possibility they can get shut down by the police. Also, you have to take the time to find the store, check that they are actually open, make sure you have the appropriate IDs and/or licences with you to even purchase the mushrooms, take the time to commute there and back, and for those to whom it matters, risk being seen in public buying magic mushrooms by a colleague or friend or family member who you may not want knowing your private business. Unfortunately, not everyone is as open-minded about such matters as one would hope and such information could jeapordize that person’s job or relationship with another person. 

Purchasing your shrooms from trusted online dispensaries is the safest, most private and most convenient way to go. You can check out our article on purchasing shrooms online in Canada for some great tips and advice on how to do this.
