God scrares God. Fascinating indeed. Scientists just discovered a new species of magic mushroom, Psilocybe ochraceocentrata, that appears to have shared a common ancestor with the popular Psilocybe cubensis some 1.5 million years ago. When you think about magic mushrooms, you are likely thinking of Psilocybe cubensis, perhaps the most popular species. Where these fungi came from and how they evolved their psychoactive properties is somewhat of a mystery. But a newly discovered sister species could provide a clue. In a new study published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, researchers describe Psilocybe ochraceocentrata, a magic mushroom found in Africa that is similar to P. cubensis but a unique species. The new species has been misidentified as P. cubensis or other mushrooms for years, but the new study suggests that the two species likely shared a common ancestor some 1.5 million years ago. “Our study suggests that the evolutionary cradle of the world’s most famous magic mushroom may lie in Africa, where collections that were previously misidentified now represent a distinct indigenous species,” says Breyten van der Merwe, a Ph.D. student in chemical engineering at Stellenbosch University in South Africa and a co-author on the study. “New descriptions like these reveal both diversity and how little we still know about African fungi.” Interestingly, both P. cubensis and P. ochraceocentrata rely on dung—whether from cattle, bison, goats, horses, or other animals—to spread their spores. The researchers used “museomics,” or genetic analyses of mushroom species already held in museums or other collections, to determine that the two species likely diverged some 1.5 million years ago. That timing aligns with other “major ecological and faunal transitions,” including herbivore migrations from Africa to Europe and Asia, the researchers note in the study, suggesting that changes in the dung landscape may be related to the species’ split. The study doesn’t answer how P. cubensis arose in the Americas. According to the authors, it’s possible that its ancestor crossed the Atlantic via atmospheric currents, insects or even ancient animal migrations, but more research is needed to say for sure. “Future population genomic and demographic analyses will be key to testing these hypotheses and clarifying the species’ dispersal history,” the authors write. My first batch of golden teachers got mold in them green Trichoderma. And so the substrate was discarded. I am so very careful as well. I hope the second batch will be ok. If I could buy them online I would and also DMT but the country I live in Australia is very very strict and so is my state. Pluss I have also been scammed online for around 4 grand when trying to buy psychedelics. WTF never heard of mister beast really humans follow this guy? Why does that not surprise me. Don't sell your soul. Let one compete with one. In the end truth always finds a a way through all the bullshit and poop.

The White Man goes into his church and talks about Jesus. The Indian goes into his tipi and talks with Jesus. Quanah Parker. I can express my Love as God through everything I imagine forever. DOSED Movies I been watching them all they are very enlightening.

I always said cannabis was more like a psychedelic in its own right. There is a different experience if one ingests cannabis because it produces a different, more potent compound. For me smoking it is more of a psychedelic experience. Men and woman have been having it for over 2000 years even longer.

This is interesting. Researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel, led by plant biologist Asaph Aharoni and biochemist Paula Berman, have successfully engineered Nicotiana benthamiana (a relative of the tobacco plant) to produce five different psychedelic compounds simultaneously. The study, published in Science Advances, represents a major breakthrough in metabolic engineering, utilizing a "genetic toolkit" derived from fungi, animals, and other plants to construct a single, versatile plant-based bio-factory. Key Findings and Breakthroughs: Five Compounds in One Plant: The modified plant produces N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), psilocin, psilocybin, bufotenin, and 5-MeO-DMT. Cross-Kingdom Engineering: The team, which included Janka Höfer, incorporated genes from various organisms—including mushrooms (Psilocybe cubensis) and the Sonoran Desert toad (Incilius alvarius)—into the tobacco plant, marking a significant advancement in cross-kingdom biosynthesis. Artificial Intelligence Integration: The researchers utilized AlphaFold3, an AI tool for predicting protein structures, to identify and fix underperforming enzymes, resulting in a 40-fold increase in the production of 5-MeO-DMT. Mapping the DMT Pathway: The study successfully completed the mapping of the plant-based DMT biosynthetic pathway from tryptophan. Non-Natural Analogs: Beyond natural compounds, the engineered plant produced halogenated analogs of these molecules that do not occur in nature but have potential therapeutic applications. Purpose and Implications: The goal of this research is to create a sustainable and ethical alternative to traditional pharmaceutical production, which often relies on complex chemical synthesis or harvesting threatened organisms (like wild toads and mushrooms). By creating "trippy tobacco," the researchers hope to facilitate easier and more efficient production of compounds that show promise for treating mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Limitations: While successful, the current production yield is low compared to the source organisms, as the pathways compete for the same building blocks, and the technique (agroinfiltration) is intended for research-level, temporary production rather than permanent, inherited genetic modification.

I tried this 20yrs ago and so did one of my friends it never worked. Heat Destruction: The active psychoactive compound in magic mushrooms, psilocybin, is highly heat-sensitive. It typically begins to degrade at temperatures around 180°C (356°F), whereas the combustion point of a joint or pipe ranges from 600°C to 900°C. Metabolic Requirement: For psilocybin to produce a "trip," it must be ingested and metabolized by the liver into psilocin. Inhaling smoke bypasses this necessary digestive process. User Reports: Most anecdotal reports indicate that smoking mushrooms results in little to no psychoactive effect, often described as a "waste of time". 2. Serious Health Risks Fungal Lung Infections: Inhaling mushroom material can introduce fungal spores directly into the lungs. This can lead to serious, potentially fatal respiratory infections or inflammation, especially in individuals with weakened immune systems or pre-existing lung conditions. Lung Damage: Mushrooms contain chitin in their cell walls, which does not burn cleanly. Inhaling burnt chitin and other fungal matter can cause immediate throat burning, persistent coughing, and long-term lung tissue damage. Physical Side Effects: Attempting to smoke mushrooms often leads to unpleasant physical symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, chest pain, and headaches rather than the desired high. 3. Culinary Exception: "Smoked Mushrooms" If you are referring to the culinary technique, mushrooms (such as Portobello or Cremini) are frequently "smoked" in a food smoker to add flavor to dishes. Feasting At Home +1 Process: This involves placing fresh mushrooms in a pellet smoker or stovetop smoker at low temperatures (typically 225°F to 250°F) for 30–60 minutes. Safety: This is a safe and common cooking method intended for ingestion, not inhalation. And never inject them not saying you would but humans do silly things all the time. Be careful when buying off the dark web.

I have not seen this one of Alan Watts found it on the forum. Tonight I am going to dream in such a way that I don't know that I am dreaming. This exactly what God did until I awaken. You have to break down that wall of fear and let go of all your human attachments when you are on psychedelics let go let go.

Because it is very close to reality. Breaking Bad that is. Have not really watched Better Call Saul might be a bit of fun.
