Argentina

This Argentina mushroom grow kit is a beginner-friendly Psilocybe cubensis strain known for its ease of cultivation and fantastic yield potential. There are even some reports of growers having 10 successful harvests with one grow kit, allowing them to create a huge supply of these magic mushrooms.

 

These mushrooms are of medium potency, with a tryptamine content that usually ranges from 0.25 to 2%. As the name suggests, Argentina shrooms come from Argentina, more specifically from the mountainous rainforests around Tafi del Valle in northern Argentina. The original specimen is thought to have been collected in the late 1950s, making it one of the oldest magic mushrooms still on the market.

 

Visually, Argentina magic mushrooms are characterised by broad, caramel-coloured caps supported by white stems of medium thickness. The fruiting bodies are comparatively smaller, but due to the large quantity, a colony still weighs more than many other Psylocibe cubensis varieties. These mushrooms thrive best in a particularly humid, warm climate during the summer months. Therefore, these magic mushrooms thrive best in the grow bag at a humidity of 70-80% and a temperature of 23-25°C. In addition, dipping the mushrooms in cold water for 10-20 minutes between rinses can have a positive effect on yield. Not only are Argentinian mushrooms resistant to mould and disease, they are also extremely productive, with experienced growers sometimes achieving more than 10 successful flushes! But even beginners can expect a particularly high yield with this magic mushroom grow kit, which can be over 700 grams with 5 to 6 successful flushes. 

 

Argentina mushrooms offer a much deeper body trip than many other strains, accompanied by relatively mild visuals. As the effects fully unfold, you feel that your physical shell begins to dissolve and the boundaries between you and the universe blur. You feel light, as if you could float with each breath, yet deeply rooted in yourself and the earth. The visuals are gentle, a delicate weave of light and shadow that gives the world a dreamlike glow. Time loses its meaning; there is only this now, filled with a sense of unity and peace. This journey is an inward journey, an exploration of your innermost depths, accompanied by a cosmic whisper that reveals the secrets of existence.

 

This magic mushroom growing kit comes with a bag, but a mini greenhouse is better for creating a consistently high humidity. You can find a description of how to grow this kit here and a suitable greenhouse here.
