If you’ve been involved in the amateur microscopy community for any length of time, you know that despite its silly name, Penis Envy is one of the Penis Envy spores that includes one of the most popular and desirable spore strains in the world. Perhaps only second to ultra-famous strains like Golden Teacher or The Lucy, this spore strain is known for its relaxing-yet-potent educational opportunities. This is a spore strain that requires a little know-how by the student, so we’ve classified it as strictly advanced.

For taxonomists, getting the wrong order shipped out (intentionally or otherwise) can be a major detriment to having an enjoyable studying experience. At Quality Spores, our mission is to provide you with authentic, viable, contaminant-free spore syringes every single time you order with us. On the off chance there ever is a problem with your order, we have world class customer service with the sole goal of ensuring your satisfaction.

Most readers here have no doubt heard of Terence McKenna, the late, great author and ethnobotanist known for his deep appreciation of magic mushrooms. The story goes that McKenna was exploring the Amazon Rainforest at some point in the early 1970s. He had the help of several indigenous guides, so it’s not like our mild-mannered friend was out there hacking away at the jungle with a machete all alone, but still, what a brave man he was.

The trip was well worth it. The claim is that during his travels, McKenna came across what he described as a “colossal” patch of mushrooms. Being as interested in mushrooms as he was, he simply couldn’t help himself, and decided to extensively study the fungi. This, of course, was the first known discovery of the Penis Envy strain in the wild.

McKenna, who lived and worked in Colorado, wanted desperately to bring the fungi back home with him, but couldn’t due to legal restrictions in the United States. However, since mushroom spores are perfectly legal, since they contain no psilocybin themselves, he was able to successfully make a spore print. Nevertheless, McKenna was nervous, and he supposedly labeled his spore prints as some variation of agarics—packed neatly between several microscopy slides.

McKenna was, of course, able to get the very first Penis Envy spores back to his lab, and that’s how they originally came to this country. How amazing is it that you, an amateur microscopist, now has the opportunity to study those very same PE spores?

What’s So Enviable About The PE Psilocybin Mushroom Spore Strain?
Amateur microscopists will be interested to learn about our Penis Envy grow kit and learn about the characteristics that these spores have. Knowing a bit about how to identify mature psilocybin mushrooms in the wild will enrich the experience, since you’ll get to see how the characteristics of a mature mushroom present themselves in the spores.
