Mushroom Growkit Mexican

One of the most famous magic mushrooms in the world - The "Flesh of the Gods"

The Mexican representatives of the "Psilocybe Cubensis" are probably the most famous magic mushrooms on the market. By the indigenous populations of Mexico and all of Central America, these shrooms are called the "flesh of the gods" and have been used for centuries in ceremonies and rituals to "communicate with the gods". In the late 1950s, the father of LSD, Albert Hofmann, personally identified psilocybin as the main active ingredient contained in the Mexican mushrooms, thus opening a new chapter of research in this field. As a result, these magic mushrooms gained worldwide fame among psychonauts and growers alike, and it can be assumed that many of the mushroom strains known today have one or two Mexican ancestors somewhere in their family tree.

These grow kits are specifically spores of a strain from western Mexico. From the Pacific coast of Michuacán to be exact, which many locals consider the cradle of Mexico's psychoactive mushrooms. Enormous influence on the success has, as with all grow kits of course the guarantee of stable temperature and humidity values. You can expect four harvests/flushes if you handle it correctly. So these 1200ml growbox can definitely achieve a total yield of 500-800 grams.

Simply called "salmon mushrooms" by the locals of Michuacán

This particular type of Mexican shrooms, which many people in Michuacán only call "salmon mushrooms", puts the user in a pleasantly happy and grateful state accompanied by blissful not-too-overwhelming visuals. Compared to its relatives coming from other parts of Mexico, its visual effects and also the grin on its face can be a bit more intense. After all, they won't have gotten the relevant name without reason. Likewise, of course, you should be just as respectful and appropriately careful with such a potent magic mushroom, as people in Mexico have been doing for centuries.

IMPORTANT:

Always and without exception, thoroughly wash and disinfect hands, forearms and all work surfaces before working with a grow kit.

Close windows and doors to prevent microorganisms from drafts.

Always wear a mask to avoid inhaling spores and contaminating the mycelium/cake with your own breath.

Do not open the grow kit before it is in the grow bag.

Grow kits should always be used immediately upon receipt and should only be stored in exceptional circumstances. A grow kit can last up to 4 weeks, well packed at 3-5°C in the refrigerator. However, no guarantee is given.

Brief instructions for growing the grow kit:

Remove the enclosed grow bag from the box.

Fill 200-300ml of still water (not tap water) into the grow bag (not into the grow kit).

Place the grow kit into the grow bag filled with water.

Now remove the lid of the shroom grow kit in the grow bag

Wash the lid under running water and stow it away for future harvests

Spray the open grow kit with some still mineral water using a spray bottle with an aerosol sprayer (again, do not use tap water)

Close the top of the grow bag with two to three paper clips or tape to seal it so that sufficient humidity can build up.

Place the shroom grow bag in a warm place with plenty of indirect light where the temperature is a constant 18-26°C (don't put it in direct sunlight!); although magic mushrooms grow in the temperature range indicated, for optimal yields, keep the temperature at a constant 24°C. A thermal mat can help, but will not compensate for a room that is too cold.

Ventilate the grow kit once a day by briefly opening the grow bag and spraying one spray from your atomizer on each side of the grow bag; avoid spraying the mycelium/cake directly; then close the grow bag again as usual.

The first mushrooms should be visible after about two weeks.

Quick guide to harvesting the Mexican:

Cleanliness is the number one priority when harvesting magic mushrooms. Wash your hands and forearms well with antibacterial soap and always wear sterile gloves. It is very important to harvest the mushrooms as soon as the veils under the hats of the mushrooms begin to break away from the mushroom stem. If you wait too long past this point, the growkit will most likely not produce any more harvests. Be sure to harvest in a timely manner. Grab the mushrooms by the stem and gently twist and pull them out. It is very important not to just pull, as this can damage the mycelium inside the grow kit and then cause it to perform worse in future harvests. After picking, the stems may turn bluish, but this is normal and even speaks for the quality of the mushrooms.

Additional harvests:

It is possible, with proper handling, to produce two to three harvests with these grow kits. However, experienced growers can manage more. To do this, proceed as follows:

Remove the grow kit from the grow bag after harvesting and fill it up from the bottom about 1cm - 2cm with still mineral water.

Put the stored lid back on the grow kit and put the kit so 2 hours in the refrigerator.

After 2 hours, carefully open one of the corners of the lid and carefully pour off excess water. It is normal that little water remains and the amount of water varies from grow kit to grow kit.

Begin at point 1 of the grow line and harvest the next mushrooms in a few weeks. This process can be repeated several times. The grow kit has reached the end of its life cycle when no new mushrooms have formed after at least three weeks or the kit turns green, red, gray or yellow, as this indicates contamination by other microorganisms. Please dispose of grow kits directly off-site and do not put them in household waste.
