Psychedelic truffles

What are psychedelic truffles?

Psychedelic truffles are also known as Sclerotia, Psychedelic mushrooms truffles, Magic mushrooms and “Philosopher’s Stones”, and grow underneath the soil in between the mycelium of Psilocybin mushrooms (magic mushrooms). They look like truffles, taste a little nutty and contain, just as Magic mushrooms, the psychedelic truffles compounds psilocybin and psilocin.

Sclerotia Atlantis

Psilocybe atlantis: Indigenous only to Fulton County, Georgia, Psilocybe Atlantis is another relative of the magic mushroom family and has a pleasant taste and smell.

This type of sclerotia has appeared on the market and is more potent than either Tampanesis or Mexicana. Exercise caution it’s surprisingly strong compared to the other types; similar to the difference between the old Cubensis mushrooms and the Hawaiian mushrooms.

Are the effects of sclerotia truffles similar to magic mushrooms?

Don’t take a huge dose under the mistaken impression that sclerotia truffles are a much weaker version of magic mushrooms! 

The only known active ingredients of magic mushrooms are psilocin and psilocybin, which are also contained in sclerotia. 
The psilocybin gets converted to psilocin before it enters the brain, so the difference in effects between any type of mushroom or sclerotia will depend purely on how much psilocin gets into your brain and the timescale over which this takes place. 
Some types of mushroom (such as the Hawaiian) are very strong and take effect very quickly. In terms of potency, sclerotia are more similar in effect to the Cubensis-type mushrooms previously sold as Mexicans, Columbians and so on. 

Sclerotia take effect noticeably more slowly than mushrooms, but at comparable doses the results are very similar. 
Expectation can play a large part, so if you are told that what you are taking is very visual or more philosophical that can influence your trip.

What is sclerotia ? 
A sclerotium (plural: sclerotia) is a hardened mass of mycelium which is more resistant to adverse environmental conditions than normal mycelium. Sclerotia form from the mycelium of certain mushroom species as a defense mechanism against dryness, cold, heat, or excessive moisture. Sclerotia contain approximately 30% dry matter. The potency of dry sclerotia is around 2/3 that of dry Psilocybe cubensis fruitbodies.

How are sclerotia grown? 
Sclerotia can be grown in vitro on rye grass seed or different grains, or harvested from spent casings of Psilocybe mexicana or Psilocybe tampanensis. Growing sclerotia in vitro is very simple and does not require any of the terrariums, air exchanges, or other complexities of fruiting mushrooms, but takes longer. Different grain substrates will work for sclerotia, but PF substrate is not suitable because of its vermiculite content. Any substrate containing materials not fit for human consumption should not be used for growing sclerotia, as it may be difficult during harvesting to separate the sclerotia from the substrate. 


What species form sclerotia? 
Psilocybe mexicana and Psilocybe tampanensis both form sclerotia, as well as Psilocybe atlantis. The 'A' strain of Psilocybe mexicana in particular is known for its exceptional sclerotia forming abilities.
