Description
The Steel Magnolia mushroom, a relatively recent addition to the Psilocybe genus, has emerged as a rare yet potent strain in the realm of psychedelic fungi. Developed by two mycologists who isolated sporangiophore from a wild Mississippi variant in 2011, this strain has quickly garnered attention for its notable characteristics. Steel Magnolia mushrooms are known for their large size, and they are often compared to, or even considered more potent than, the well-known Penis Envy variants. Their warm coloration and distinctive appearance make them easily recognizable. Due to their high potency, Steel Magnolia mushrooms are typically not recommended for inexperienced users, as they can induce intense spiritual experiences.
The effects of the Steel Magnolia strain manifest within 10 to 30 minutes of ingestion, with outcomes varying based on the dosage. At lower doses (0.5-1.5 grams), users may experience mood enhancement characterized by euphoric and ecstatic feelings, while moderate amounts (2.0-3.5 grams) can lead to a more profound journey lasting 3-6 hours. The experience often includes a deepened connection to the natural world and one’s surroundings, with users reporting that their environment seems to breathe and come alive. This strain can also significantly alter the perception of art and music, leading to a heightened appreciation and a more personal, introspective understanding of oneself. Due to its strength, caution is advised when using Steel Magnolia mushrooms, particularly in social settings like parties, where high doses may lead to overwhelming experiences.

Usage
How to use a mushroom liquid culture syringe:
- Prepare the work area: Before you begin, ensure your workspace is clean and sanitized. You will need a clean surface to rest the syringe on and safe disposal for any used materials.
- Handle the syringe with care to avoid any accidental spills or contamination.
- Prepare the solution: Open the mushroom liquid culture syringe and make sure that the aqueous solution is clear, other than the mycelium. If the aqueous solution is cloudy, discard it and start with a new one.
- Prepare a microscopy slide or sanitize the area to be penetrated by the dispensing needle
- Dispense a small amount of the solution onto a microscopy slide, or inject 1 milliliter into the container you will use through a self-healing injection port.
Tips and Tricks for successful usage
- Always be as clean as possible.
- Wear clean clothing.
- Practice good oral hygiene.
- Wear new gloves every time.
- Wipe all surfaces, including gloves, with disinfectant.
- Do not introduce un-sanitized items into a sanitized work area.
Advantages of a liquid culture syringe over a spore syringe
A liquid culture syringe has a significant advantage over a spore syringe in terms of the time you do not have to wait for germination. A liquid culture syringe will save you weeks to months in your endeavor. Another advantage is that liquid cultures can be advanced genetic isolates that can outperform spores. Thick Spores sells only genetically isolated LC.
Shelf Life & Storage
Liquid Culture syringes have a shelf life of approximately three months before the nutrient broth becomes depleted of nutrients. Therefore, you must either use the LC before three months or transfer the mycelium in the syringe to a new and sterile medium with fresh nutrients.
