Psilocybe cubensis Strains and Varieties: What Science Knows
The science behind Golden Teacher, B+, and Penis Envy: what analytical chemistry and genetics reveal about P. cubensis strain variation.
Psilocybe azurescens: The Most Potent Psilocybin Species
Psilocybe azurescens is reported at up to 1.78% psilocybin by dry weight — but that figure traces to a 1995 species description, not modern analysis. What the chemistry actually shows.
