Inca Star Gazer
- 10ml Isolated Syringe (Isolated Syringes are different then the regular Spore Syringe version of Inca Star gazer. The Isolated contains more active spores that have increased chance of germination success.)
The Stargazer mushroom, often referred to as "Inca Stargazer," carries a veil of mystery as captivating as its name. Allegedly originating from the ancient Incan ruins near Machu Picchu, the Stargazer mushroom is a strain of Psilocybe cubensis known for its ease of cultivation and robust potency. Despite the enchanting tales, clear historical documentation is sparse, and the true origins of this strain blend into the myths surrounding ancient psychedelic practices.
Historical Claims and Clarifications
Many enthusiasts might stumble upon tales linking the Stargazer mushroom to influential mycologists like Paul Stamets and J.S. Chilton, courtesy of their seminal work, The Mushroom Cultivator. However, this connection is a misattribution; while the book discusses various cubensis strains, it does not specifically mention the Stargazer. This illustrates the complexities in tracing the lineage and authenticity of mushroom strains through historical texts.
Cultivation Insights
Growing Stargazer mushrooms is reportedly straightforward, aligning with the general characteristics of Psilocybe cubensis strains. They thrive under standard conditions with a preference for rye grain during the spawning phase and a mix of coco coir, vermiculite, and gypsum during fruiting, sometimes enhanced with horse manure for nutrients.
