The Psilocybe cubensis Costa Rica strain has its roots in the lush tropical regions surrounding the Arenal Volcano, where it was reportedly discovered by a researcher known as “Rhino.” This vibrant strain thrives in warm, humid climates and produces medium to large fruiting bodies with long stems and golden-brown caps that lighten as they mature.Microscopically, Costa Rica spores exhibit a dark purple-brown hue and subellipsoid shape, offering excellent visibility and contrast under magnification. These spores are known for their resistance to contamination and ease of handling, making this variety ideal for beginners and intermediate researchers alike.The species’ natural habitat, enriched soils and subtropical grasslands, reflects its adaptability and stability. While the strain’s discovery story remains partially shrouded in mystery, its consistent spore quality and resilience have earned it a place among the most studied Psilocybe cubensis varieties.Strain OriginOriginally discovered near the Arenal Volcano in Costa Rica by a researcher known as “Rhino.” The strain was found growing in enriched tropical soils at elevations between 1,000 and 1,200 feet.Mushroom FeaturesGolden-brown caps that fade to lighter shades as they matureLong stems reaching up to 200 mm in lengthDistinct blue-green bruising when handledDark purple-brown, subellipsoid sporesNaturally resistant to contamination Research DifficultyBeginner – An excellent choice for researchers new to microscopy, offering easy observation and highly resilient spore samples.What’s IncludedEach Costa Rica Spore Kit from Shaman Mushroom Spores includes:One 10ml sterile syringe filled with premium Costa Rica mushroom spores in a purified research solutionOne sterile needle for use during sample preparationIndividually packaged and sealed in a sterile environment to ensure the highest quality for microscopy research 0/5 (0 Reviews)
