Spore syringe of Psilocybe Cubensis B+ strain (10cc).
(These spore syringes are sold for microscopy and taxonomy use only. They are not intended for cultivation purposes.)
This spore syringe contains millions of spores. These are not intended to grow magic mushrooms or hallucinogenic shrooms.
B+ is a very-easy-to-cultivate strain. Ideal growing circumstances are best if you want to create really large mushrooms, especially a substrate that is rich of nutrients is important here. A really big caramel colored cap will be formed then. But, these shrooms will also grow quite well under mediocre conditions.
Use Mycomate Liquid Culture Vial to double your colonisation speed and growth.
Strain Origin: Unknown
Cap: 25-75 mm in diameter, hemispheric to convex expanding to broadly convex to nearly plane with age. Dark red maturing to golden brown. Surface viscid with apparent gelatinous layer when very wet, soon smooth from drying. Fine fibrillose veil remnants when young that soon disappear. Flesh white soon bruising bluish green.
Stem: 150-200+ mm in length. Typically equal, sometimes slightly enlarged at base, sometimes contorted. Yellowish to buff with a reflective sheen, bruising bluish, hollow. Partial veil membranous leaving a persistent membranous annulus that is well dusted with purplish brown spores even before tearing away from the cap.
Gills: Attachment adnate to adnexed. Grayish coloration in young fruit bodies becoming nearly black in maturity.
Spores: Dark purplish brown, subellipsoid, 13 by 8 micrometers on 4-spored basidia
Formerly misrepresented as Psilocybe azurescens.
Detail of separable gelatinous pellicle: This feature seems to be unique to the "B+" among cubensis. When young and fully hydrated the cap has a transparent amber colored layer of cells that quickly oxidizes upon removal to a more opaque blue gray color. The texture is like a thin stretchable layer of gelatin. Note the area where the pellicle has been removed is dull.
