P. Cubensis “Oak Ridge” ISO Syringe

Disclaimers

Oak Ridge Isolated Spore Syringes are considered “active spores” which are for microscopy purposes only. DO NOT CONTACT US ABOUT ANYTHING REGARDING CULTIVATING OR GERMINATING OAK RIDGE ISO’S. 

Shipping is unavailable to California, Idaho, & Georgia. These 3 states strictly prohibit the possession of spores of both psilocybin and psilocin producing mushroom species. Orders to these states will be refused and subsequently voided. Any payments made for orders to CA, ID, or GA will also incur a $5 cancellation fee.

We do not condone or participate in the cultivation of psilocybin or psilocin producing mushroom species. 

Oak Ridge ISO Information

Isolated spore syringes, also known as ISO syringes, contain mushroom genetics that are more stabilized than a normal multispore syringe (MSS). Great care has been taken to isolate the strongest, fastest, and most hardy genetics that will provide vigorous and more consistent research under the microscope. Multispore syringes contain a great deal of genetic diversity, and therefore can present a multitude of different phenotypes. On the other hand, isolated spore syringes have been stabilized in order to present only one phenotype which will provide the most optimized and consistent research. 

This Cubensis variety originates from Oak Ridge, TN. Their discoverer is a forager and mycologist who goes by the alias “Jeetered”. Jeetered found specimens growing on horse dung a few miles away from the Y12 National Nuclear Laboratory. 

This laboratory is now a nuclear safety and security facility that has a historical significance during WWII. It was built during the Manhattan Project with the purpose of enriching uranium in order to create the first atomic bombs. 

At the time of their discovery, these Oak Ridge mushrooms were the furthest north that Cubensis had ever been collected and recorded in the US. It’s known as a cold-hardy variety. Thus, even if you live in a cold environment you can still get good research from these spores. 

Microscopic Features

The caps range anywhere from 20-75mm in diameter with a convex shape that later flattens with age. Moreover, stems are generally large and measure between 150-200mm, sometimes even larger. The caps of Oak Ridge mushroom specimens usually leave behind very dark prints and for that reason they’re excellent for providing future research specimens.  Oak Ridge specimens have a picture-perfect Cubensis look with long cream colored or white stems and proportionally sized caps on top. The caps are golden brown and tend to be medium sized.
