This is one of the many strains discovered by Mushroom John Allen on his trip to Southeast Asia. This particular strain was found in Thailand, near Ban Tailing Ngam, Koh Samui.
The Allen strain is well-loved in the mushroom community. Its characteristics are thin, tall mushrooms with rapid colonization times. This strain will colonize jars about 10 or 20% faster than many other Psilocybe cubensis strains.
Magic mushroom effects vary by strain and even by batch. These effects are often influenced by psilocybin content, growing medium and set/setting.
