Hallucinations

What characteristics do hallucinogens have?

Hallucinogens in the form of psilocybin mushrooms have psilocybin, which changes into psilocin after ingestion. In this form, the substance does not cause physical or mental dependence, but it can have some side effects. The risk of ailments and disorders increases when used together with alcohol or other psychoactive compounds. The potential danger makes hallucinogenic mushrooms illegal in Poland. However, amateurs and mycology hobbyists can possess mycelium of various varieties that is free of legally prohibited substances. Growkits of psilocybe cubensis can be found in our online store Shroom.it.

Presence in nature

Mushrooms with psychoactive properties grow in the natural environment and are found practically all over the world. The different varieties of psilocybe cubensis are mostly brown or yellow-brown in color, and similar in shape to many common species lacking psilocybin. In practice, mistaken consumption of psilocybe cubensis does not happen often, as similar mushrooms are usually inedible. The coloration of psilocybe cubensis can change when crushed or sectioned, which is also their rather peculiar feature. In Poland, the occurrence of psilocybe fungi is in practice limited only to lanceolate psilocybe, which thrives exceptionally well in temperate climates.

Psychoactive properties

Psilocybin and other compounds present in such mushrooms are responsible for their psychoactive properties. The sensations triggered by these substances can be influenced to some extent by various external factors, such as the individual characteristics of the user or the amount of dose used. Hallucinogenic mushrooms themselves have been known for many centuries, so they have been used for centuries for various rituals, to influence consciousness, achieve spiritual states or trigger euphoric states. The psilocybin content of different varieties of psilocybe cubensis can vary, which has significant implications for the intensity, type or duration of psychoactive sensations.

Habitat conditions

Among the peculiarities of psychedelic mushrooms are their living conditions, as they develop in animal dung. Indeed, the different varieties of psilocybe cubensis are coprophilous, which means that they are most often found in areas occupied by pastures of goats, cows, sheep or other large herbivores. These mushrooms are also characterized by their sapostrophic and thick-walled imprints, which are dark brown and smooth. The mycelium, however, remains rhizomorphic. In the wild, psilocybin mushrooms can grow freely over a relatively wide temperature range and at a not insignificant humidity.

Is it permissible to own, sell or cultivate hallucinobacteria in Poland?

Hallucinogens contain psilocybin, which is illegal in our country. In Poland it is possible to possess particular varieties of psilocybe cubensis only in the form of mycelium, which does not have any prohibited compounds. Our Shroom.it store offers numerous growkits for hobbyists, including varieties B+, Golden Teacher, Colombian, Ecuadorian, McKennaii, Mazatapec, Cambodian or Malabar. The condition for their legal possession is not to allow the development of fruiting bodies in which illegal psilocybin will already be present. The kits available in our assortment are primarily for biological observation. Some countries have legalized the cultivation of psilocybin mushrooms, but even in their case it is always advisable to carefully check all applicable regulations.
