Psilocybe Azurescens Spore Information

Psilocybe Azurescens is a very popular mushroom species to study underneath the microscope that goes by a multitude of other names. These include, Flying Saucers, Blue Meanies, Blue Angels, Blue Runners, and many more. To begin, the back story of this species discovery depicts a group of Boy Scout boys setting up camp near the mouth of the Columbia River back in 1979. Later, in 1995, Paul Staments formally named it “Psilocybe Azurescens.” In addition, this was a tribute to his son, Azureus.
Mycologists know these fungi primarily grow naturally along coastlines amongst coastal dunes as well as within coastal grass clumps. Furthermore, they are usually found growing on soils or sands that are abundant in ligneous debris. Meaning, that in nature they prefer woody substrates in nature. Their mycelium is dense, string, extensive and known to grip the substrate firmly. Their fruiting season is late September when the cold weather begins. This continues into late December to early January and can tolerate to early January. This means they can tolerate extremely cold temperatures.
