Order Psilocybe Fanaticus”Online in europe. looks like a scientific name along the lines of Psilocybe cubensis, but it isn’t.

Instead, it’s the nickname of a man, Robert McPherson, and the nickname, too, of a strain of P. cubensis he developed, also called the PF Classic. The PF in PF Tek is him, too.

PF Classic is indeed a classic cube, popular with users, but not as commonly grown.

Just like P. cubensis as a whole, it is physically variable,

with a stem that may be short or tall thick or thin, spongy or fibrous. The veil does not tear until the mushroom is fully mature, meaning growers can wait until the mushrooms are quite large before harvesting without getting spores everywhere.

P.cubensis is a naturally variable species, so a great many of its variations have been found,

isolated, named, and cultivated as separate strains.

The species also grows wild across much of the world, wherever its favorite food, the dung of large mammals, occurs.

Of whatever strain, it is among the most popular hallucinogenic mushrooms in the world, the one usually meant by phrases like “shrooms” or “magic mushrooms.”

There are other contenders, other species that contain the same active ingredient, psilocybin, plus others that instead contain moscimol, a very different hallucinogen that causes a very different kind of experience when eaten.

Unlike the moscimol-containing species,

which also contain a toxin and must be processed properly if they are to be used safely, P. cubensis is essentially non-toxic (unless you count psychoactivity itself as a form of toxicity,

as some do), but use is not entirely without risk.

Mild side effects, such as nausea and excessive yawning, are common.
