Magic mushrooms is a colloquial term for fungi containing substances with psychedelic effects. After consumption, the chemical compounds they contain have a significant impact on consciousness, altering mood, sharpening senses, and distorting the perception of time and space. The main psychoactive substance in these mushrooms is psilocybin.
What are the most well-known Polish hallucinogenic mushrooms?
Polish hallucinogenic mushrooms are primarily the liberty cap (Psilocybe semilanceata). This variety contains psilocybin, and in trace amounts also psilocin, norbaeocystin, and baeocystin. These compounds are also present in the Cuban mushroom - Psilocybe cubensis. The spores of these mushrooms can be legally sold and stored, primarily for research and collection purposes. They are available in our online store Shroom.it, which also offers ready-made grow kits containing Psilocybe cubensis mycelium.
Identification in the natural environment
Varieties of psilocybin mushrooms in Poland have a brown-yellow coloration, which is also present in many common inedible species, devoid of psychedelic substances or even poisonous. Accidental consumption of liberty caps is relatively rare, as similar mushrooms are generally not sought for culinary purposes. However, mistakes do occur when people looking for psilocybin mushrooms accidentally encounter other species - primarily inactive Panaeolus mushrooms. The liberty cap found in Poland thrives relatively easily in a temperate climate.
Content of psychedelic substances
The psychoactive properties of such mushrooms are determined by the content of chemical compounds they produce. However, the effects given by psilocybin can be quite varied, depending on the dose taken, age, personality, and emotional and physical state. Mushrooms containing psychedelic substances have been known for centuries. Many ancient cultures used them recreationally and for medicinal purposes, as well as to achieve spiritual experiences, higher states of consciousness, or induce states of euphoria. Each psilocybin mushroom has a slightly different psilocybin content, which will result in different quality, duration, intensity, and type of psychedelic experiences.
