Psilocybe Cubensis/other mushroom strain QUESTION

so ive been around and have researched mushrooms for years now and have learned and still learn more and more about them everyday.

im curious to know if different strains of mushrooms containing psilocybin and psilocin can give you different effects?

i know that different strains contain different amouts of psilocybin and psilocin and are stronger than each other but only by weight.....
but do the discription of each cubensis strain or other types of psilocybe mushrooms really have different effects than the other? is what im trying to ask

yes each strain will hit you differently, some stronger than others. usually the stronger strains are harder to grow and its more easy to have a bad trip on them. I used to grow B+ and it was a good trip, easy to grow, and a high yielder.

I have grown over 10 diff strains of cubensis, and they all are diff in some way. The most potent strain was Penin Envy! Island of Fiji wasnt a good strain, the stems when growing were like toothpicks compared to other strains. Every other strain the trip lasted about 6 hrs, but with PE it was 12!!!! The only bad thing about PE is they dont produce spores, so you have to take tissue culture, or do a grain to grain transfer. From what I learned over the years, when you dry out mushrooms the psilocin converts to psilocybin. Hope I helped out!

A cubensis is a cubensis...Environmental factors, growing method, and picking time are going to play a larger role in the concentrations of psilocin and psilocybin, not if its a B+ or a Equadorian or whatever hyped up strain name they decide on. Some people say they feel different effects but I think its all psychological. Ive ate quite a few different varieties and the only time the trip was 'different' is when the dose was higher or lower.

If youre looking for a more potent shroom, you need to look into cyanescens.

This dude is right on, even eating from the same batch of shrooms the trip is ALWAYS different.

Well, maybe one day you will try PE, and then you will know its not psychological. Not many ppl get ahold of PE, unless they grow them themselves. None of my buddies had ever heard of them until I turned them on to some. Anyway, not trying to be a know it all but I know what I grow!!

Dude a cube is a cube except PE, that is already a known fact. I was comparing cube strains minus the PE because that is the exception. Besides I just harvested a 64 qt monotub of PE that I grew out on agar.

i wasnt really asking about cultivating just the effects it gives you when you take it.

and is it true there is more psilocin in fresh boomers?
and when they start to dry the psilocin turns to psilocybin?


cuz i know once psilcybin is ingested it turns to psilocin. so would just taking straight psilocin be more potent?

Yes, freshness contains the more psychoactive part known as psilocin... if you want insane visuals go where the fresh is at ;)
