Texas Yellow Cap Origin Information

This is a variety that is related to Texas Orange Cap (TOC) and is said to be created in 1998 by an amateur mycologist. This means they act as a domesticated strain which is great for beginner microscopists as their spores are designed to be extremely contaminant resistant.

Though they are related to the classic Texas Orange Cap strain there are some differences mainly in the appearance. They tend to be a little taller than their TOC counterparts. And like most mushrooms, they have a hemispheric cap that expands with age. Though there are some difference, the aggression and strength of the mycelium is very similar to TOC as they are both strong and hardy. But, TYC would be a little more resilient meaning these spores will be especially great for people who are learning how to handle spores. Once they grow their difference becomes more distinct. As one would expect the colors are different. They are much more bright yellow and pop rather than the flatter orange of the TOC.

As a starting microscopist, TYC might be perfect as it hardy nature is almost designed for amateurs to handle. Don’t miss out order your TYC mushroom swabs today!
