Which growkit to choose?

Which growkit should I choose to start with?

What growkit to choose in order to easily and safely begin the adventure of observing mycelium? You will find many such kits in the offer of our online store Shroom.it, where products are available that are specially prepared and stored in proper refrigeration conditions. These growkits contain mycelium of the Psilocybe cubensis species, or Cuban coot. Each of the available varieties has slightly different properties, thus providing a lot of interesting information for mycologists. In addition to the mycelium, each set also contains a set of accessories useful for the observation stage. The mycelium itself is in the form of a recolonized substrate based on cereal grains.

Choosing the right variety

Growkits available in our online store differ in terms of various parameters, which are worth taking into account when choosing a particular product. Each set has a slightly different color of packaging and different symbols or graphics that refer to specific varieties of Psilocybe cubensis species. In our assortment you will find Malabar, Golden Teacher, McKennaii, Mazatapec, Colombian, Ecuadorian, Thai or Mexican growkits. One of the most characteristic features of all these mushrooms is their hallucinogenic properties, which is due to the content of psychoactive substances - psilocybin and psilocin. It is worth remembering that possession of fruiting bodies is not legal in Poland. However, Growkit only contains mycelium, which is free of psychedelic substances and can be kept by collectors or researchers. In our company, we are personally involved in the production of the popular Malabar variety, which takes place at multiple stages and is done with full quality control, selection of the right genes and a comprehensive approach to the entire development process. Other growkits are imported, but are also of high quality.

Specific characteristics

One of the most popular varieties of Psilocybe cubensis is Golden Teacher. These mushrooms are often chosen by both novice observers and experienced mycological researchers. Microscopic observation of the mycelium of this variety can be very interesting, due to its characteristic physical features. For beginners, we also recommend the Malabar growkit, which owes its name to its natural place of origin - the Malabar Coast. A set with McKenaii mycelium may also be a good choice. A growkit Mazatapec will also be an optimal suggestion for beginners. This variety comes from the areas inhabited by the ancient Mayans and Aztecs, who used these mushrooms in various rituals.

Which growkit should you choose to be fully legal?

Which growkit to choose so as not to expose yourself to legal consequences? The purchase of such a product is possible only for observational and collector purposes, since in Poland the possession or pursuit of psilocybin mushrooms remains illegal. Growing particular varieties of Psilocybe cubensis for personal use is allowed in some countries, but this depends on individual state regulations and always needs to be checked. Growkits available in the offer of our online store contain only mycelium, so there are no obstacles before buying them. What you can't do is to grow mushrooms and make them develop fruiting bodies, as the psychoactive substance is already contained in them.
