Koh Samui Mushrooms

Add Koh Samui island to your list of places to visit if you’re a psychonaut considering a trip to Thailand. A unique variety of magic mushroom with some pretty astounding properties lives on this lovely island. For ages, the locals have been taking hallucinogenic mushrooms. This particular species of mushroom — called Psilocybe cubensis — contains high levels of psilocybin, a naturally occurring psychedelic compound. When consumed, psilocybin can produce powerful hallucinations and an altered state of consciousness. Buy Koh Samui mushroom online

There is substantial disagreement over which species of mushroom are meant by Koh Samui. Most often, when the term “Koh Samui” is used, it refers to a specific strain of Psilocybe cubensis that was procured from the island of Koh Samui in the 1990s by amateur mycologist Mushroom John Allen.. However, there’s also a separate species of psilocybin-containing mushroom found here called Psilocybe samuiensis, but it’s not common to find these mushrooms or their spores online. koh samui super strain, koh samui super strain vs golden teacher, thai koh samui super strain, thailand koh samui super strain cubensis,

Some experts place this Thai magic mushroom strain under the Mexicanae genus of psilocybe mushrooms rather than Psilocybe cubensis. If this were true, it would make Koh Samui mushrooms the only strain from the Mexicanaue genus that’s found outside North America. buy koh samui super strain online

Gastón Guzmán, a Mexican mycologist and anthropologist, placed this mushroom in the Mexicanae category due to its rhomboid-shaped spores and its ability to grow sclerotia, a compact growth in the mycelium containing food reserves, which is an evolutionary trait that emerged from surviving extreme temperatures.

But most experts argue that Koh Samui mushrooms are, in fact, a strain of Psilocybe cubensis.

Koh Samui Mushrooms Effects & Potency

Koh Samui is a popular strain of magic mushrooms thanks to its fast-growing, contaminant-resistant mycelium. The mushrooms fruit quickly and colonize rapidly, resulting in thick, healthy growth. Although they don’t grow very tall, Koh Samui mushrooms are known to proliferate in very dense clusters. lights to koh samui,

Koh Samui shrooms are commonly used in traditional Thai medicine to treat various ailments, including fatigue, anxiety, and depression and are also said to improve cognitive function and memory. People report that the high from these mushrooms is formidable but certainly not the strongest available. The psychedelic experience from this shroom can be confusing or disorientating with strong visual hallucinations. The high is also described as being high-energyand euphoric.

Quantitative analysis on this mushroom strain suggests an average psilocybin content of around 0.63%. Total tryptamine levels (psilocybin, psilocin, baeocystin, and other related compounds) average at around 0.7% for this strain. For reference, we consider the average Psilocybe cubensis mushroom to contain somewhere between 0.5% and 0.9% total tryptamines (dried weight).

The Koh Samui magic mushroom is often many people’s first experience with psychedelic shrooms when vacationing in Thailand. They’re especially popular in the form of magic mushroom shakes during the infamous Full Moon parties.

How To Grow Koh Samui Mushrooms

Koh Samui super strain mushrooms are among the easiest mushrooms to grow at home because of their high resistance to contamination and propensity for yielding large flushes of psychoactive fruit. If you want to grow your own Koh Samui magic mushrooms, here’s what you need to do:

First, purchase some quality spores from a reputable source

There are a few different ways to get your hands on spores, but purchasing syringes is preferred because it’s much easier to inoculate your substrate jars while maintaining a clean working environment. With this method, you don’t have to worry about opening up a spore print and potentially contaminating your entire operation.

Next, sterilize your equipment and choose an appropriate growing medium or substrate.

Koh Samui can be grown successfully in wild bird seed, rye grain, and pasteurized dung and straw mixture. The key is to keep its environment very clean as the mold and bacteria present in the substrate will compete with the fungi for nutrients, preventing your fungi from growing. You’ll then innoculate your sterile substrate with the syringe, adding a small amount into each jar.

The key to successful inoculation is to do this in a very clean environment, as bacteria in the air and surfaces can end up botching your project. It’s important that you wear gloves and disinfect all surfaces and the air with isopropyl alcohol or a disinfectant spray.

Next comes the incubation phase, which can take 1-2 weeks.

Koh Samui mushrooms’ ideal temperature for colonizing ranges from 28 – 30 ºCwith high humidity (>80%). You can purchase incubator kits online, usually from the suppliers where you purchased your Koh Samui spores, or make your own.

Once the Koh Samui fungi have started germinating in the inoculation jars, it’s time to move on to the fruiting phase, where you’ll transfer the substrate into a fruiting chamber. The ideal temperature for fruiting will be a bit cooler, ranging between 22 – 25 ºC, with high humidity and very low, indirect light.

At this point, the mycelium should be strong enough to withstand bacteria, so it’s not as essential to maintain a sterile environment — but you should still keep the chamber clean for the best results. You should start seeing pinhead mushrooms pop up in a few days. As tempting as it might be, please do not touch them, or you could stunt their growth.

Let the mushrooms do their thing and grow until you see a veil around the gill cap break, signaling that they’re ready for harvest. Carefully pinch the mushrooms at the base to harvest. You can eat them wet, but it’s best to dry them out for easier and long-lasting storage with a dehydrator or by laying them out on a sheet paper towel for a few days (out of direct sunlight).

You can expect 2–3 more flushes from your fruiting chambers.

If you see any mold forming, remove the cake immediately to prevent it from spreading. Eventually, your fruiting chamber will produce fewer and fewer mushrooms and succumb to mold.

Koh Samui Mushroom Variations & Genetic Relatives

Koh Samui mushrooms were first analyzed for microscopic research by John Allen, who is also credited for refining the Thai strain mushrooms into the most commonly found Koh Samui super strain, which is what’s abundantly available on the market for its higher yields of mushrooms, potency, and resistance to contamination. Compared to the original Koh Samui strains found native to Thailand, the super strain has thick stems and brighter golden to yellow caps.

Other magic mushroom strains collected in Southeast Asia include Lipa Yai, Ban Phang Ka, Ban Thurian, Thai, Allen Strain, Tak Mountain Cube, Plantasia Mystery, T3, Pink Buffalo, Ban Hua Thanon, and Hanoi.

Where To Buy Koh Samui Mushroom Spores

You can buy mushroom spores for the Koh Samui Super strain online from mushrooms online store. These spores are legal because the spores don’t contain the psychoactive substance, psilocybin. However, they become illegal as soon as the spores are germinated.

Obviously, you should be careful when buying any sort of psychedelics online — research the vendor thoroughly before making any transactions to ensure you’re not getting ripped off. Buy Koh Samui mushroom online

What’s The Dose of Koh Samui Mushrooms?

Dosing Koh Samui magic mushrooms is a bit of an art. It’s personal and can be different for everyone — depending on the mushrooms’ growing conditions, one’s experience with psychedelics, and genetics.

That said, there are some general dosing guidelines you can follow for the type of experience you’re looking for:

• 0.5–1.5 grams is a light recreational dose
• 1.5–2 grams is a medium recreational dose
• 3–5 grams is a full to strong recreational dose
• 5 grams + is a very ‘spiritual’ dose
