Magic mushrooms are any psilocybin/psilocin-containing mushrooms. These compounds make them hallucinogenic and have been used by people for thousands of years in ceremonial practice, for medicinal reasons and recreation. Psilocybin mushrooms; commonly known as magic mushrooms, mushrooms or shrooms, are a polyphyletic informal group of fungi that contain psilocybin which turns into psilocin upon ingestion.

1. Mental health benefits: Psilocybin has shown promise in treating mental health conditions like depression and anxiety, with the FDA recognizing its potential as a “breakthrough therapy” for depression.
2. Addiction treatment: Psilocybin may help individuals overcome addiction and addictive behaviors.
3. Cognitive enhancement: Potential benefits include improved cognitive function, enhanced problem-solving skills, and better focus and concentration.

Microdosing (Up to .25g)

A small dose isn’t enough to “trip” in the traditional sense, but can lead to subtle yet profound internal shifts. Improvements in mood, productivity, or creativity, enhanced focus, less reactivity, and the possibility of relief from depression, anxiety, cluster headaches, and a variety of other symptoms.

Level 1 (0.25-1 gram)

This level produces a mild “stoning” effect, with some visual enhancement (i.e. brighter colours, etcetera). Some short-term memory anomalies. Left/right brain communication changes causing music to sound “wider”.

Level 2 (1 to 2 grams)

Bright colours, and visuals (i.e. things start to move and breathe), some 2-dimensional patterns become apparent upon shutting eyes. Confused or reminiscent thoughts. Change in short term memory leads to continual distractive thought patterns. The vast increase in creativity becomes apparent as the natural brain filter is bypassed.

Level 3 (2 to 3.5 grams – medium to high recreational dose)

Very obvious visuals, everything looking curved and/or warped patterns and kaleidoscopes seen on walls, faces etc. Some mild hallucinations such as rivers flowing on wood-grained or “mother of pearl” surfaces. Closed eye hallucinations become 3 dimensional. There is some confusion of the senses (i.e. seeing sounds as colours, etcetera). Time distortions and “moments of eternity”.

Level 4 (3.5-5 grams – heavy recreational to spiritual dose)

Strong hallucinations, i.e. object morphing into other objects. Destruction or multiple splitting of the ego. (Things start talking to you, or you find that you are feeling contradictory things simultaneously). Some loss of reality. Time becomes meaningless. Out-of-body experiences and e.s.p. type phenomena. Blending of the senses.

Level 5 (5+grams – heroic/spiritual dose)

Total loss of visual connection with reality. The senses cease to function in the normal way. Total loss of ego. Merging with space, other objects, or the universe. The loss of reality becomes so severe that it defies explanation. The earlier levels are relatively easy to explain in terms of measurable changes in perception and thought patterns. This level is different in that the actual universe within which things are normally perceived, ceases to exist! Satori enlightenment (and other such labels).

Absolutely! Many studies are proving how beneficial psilocybin mushrooms are for mental health and we can speak from first-hand experience that it is true! Our reviews section is filled with people speaking about the benefits of magic mushrooms, in particular to their depression.

If you’re consuming them on a regular basis, yes. You should wait 2 weeks between larger doses of magic mushrooms to reset your tolerance.  You don't need to do this, shrooms are not toxic but you will need a larger dose if you trip again shortly after tripping.

Psilocybin mushrooms are non-toxic.

You cannot technically overdose on mushrooms as the amount needed would be basically impossible to eat. You can have a bad trip though. Bad trips can make you face difficult things in your life, internal things that you often ignore or have suppressed. If this happens, just know that you will be OK, and after your trip you will most likely feel better about those issues, this is being studied by professionals for use in therapy.

Bad trips are not very common and they should not deter you from taking mushrooms, if you take them responsibly.  People have been eating magic mushrooms since we started walking and there have only been a few instances of people taking too much and harming others. As with any substance, shrooms must be taken with caution and good intentions.  Injuries and harmful acts are EXTREMELY rare, they are minuscule (unlike alcohol or cocaine). People on mushrooms tend to appreciate everything, be very chill and full of laughter to the point of tears.

However, if you do feel that you seriously need help. We advise you call a loved one or seek medical attention.  Our products are made with actual mushrooms and do not interact with many medications, however it is possible so be sure to do your research if you are on any medications such as anti-depressants, anti-psychotics or antibiotics.

The short answer is maybe, and you should NEVER consume recreational amounts of mushrooms before you work or operate any kind of vehicle. However, most drug tests do not test for psilocybin/psilocin, almost all of them test only for cannabinoids, cocaine, amphetamines, opiates and PCP. Always use mushrooms responsibly.

Magic mushrooms are not addictive. You can Microdose daily with no addiction issues whatsoever. Our bodies build up a tolerance though so while microdosing daily is fine, you would need larger and larger doses to get the same experience. We recommend taking a break of 2 weeks or more between trips for efficiency.

Psilocybin is a natural ingredient and does not contain any addictive properties so NO withdrawal symptoms.

If you store your mushrooms in a cool, dry, dark place and they’re sealed in a zipper bag, Tupperware, or mason jar, they will retain potency for a long time. If they get damp there is a possibility of them growing mould, so always store them sealed with the desiccant/silica packet we provide.

To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience from our magic mushrooms, please use them responsibly and with caution. The following guidelines can help minimize risks and maximize benefits:

1. Respect the recommended dosage: Avoid taking more than the suggested amount of mushrooms to reduce unnecessary risks.
2. Have a trusted trip sitter present: If you're new to magic mushrooms, have a sober trip sitter nearby to provide guidance and support in case of an emergency.
3. Avoid combining substances: Refrain from mixing magic mushrooms with other substances, such as cannabis or alcohol, as this can increase the risk of adverse effects.
4. Keep Vitamin C readily available: Having Vitamin C on hand can help mitigate intense effects if you've taken a stronger dose than intended.
5. Stay hydrated after the experience: Drink plenty of water after the trip to help flush out the psilocybin and restore your normal state more quickly.

By following these guidelines, you can significantly increase your chances of having a positive and enlightening experience with our magic mushrooms.

Yes, if you are not happy with your product, we will send you a replacement product or a refund (minus shipping) once you return the original. If the original has been consumed, our hands are kind of tied because that puts us in a situation where we can be taken advantage of. However, we are here to help so if you are not satisfied with your consumed product, let’s chat about it and we will try to make it right. Since 2018, not a single order has been returned.
