When buying Texas Orange Cap (Cubensis), be aware that they’re considered “active spores” which are for microscopy purposes only. DO NOT CONTACT US ABOUT ANYTHING REGARDING CULTIVATING OR GERMINATING ACTIVE SPORES.
Shipping is unavailable to California, Idaho, & Georgia. These 3 states strictly prohibit the possession of spores from psilocybin and psilocin producing mushroom species. Orders to these states will be refused and voided. Any payments made for orders to CA, ID, or GA will incur a $5 cancellation fee.
The provided images are for informational and educational purposes only and should only be used as a reference point. Images and spores are acquired from outside, trusted sources in a legal manner. We do not condone or participate in the cultivation of psilocybin or psilocin producing mushroom species.
When you buy Texas Orange Cap syringes, visibility is dependent on the characteristics of the spores themselves. As a result, not all spore syringes will look the same visibly. Despite any visible differences, they are still viable for microscopy research. More information on how we make our spore syringes and possible visible differences, check out our FAQ or blog post How To Make Spore Syringes.
Texas Orange Cap Origin
You guessed it! Another cubensis variety named after the area it was fist found in. Whether Texas Orange Caps origin is from Texas is unknown, but that’s where they were first found. Though they can be found growing throughout lots the south west and have even been found in parts of norther Mexico. However, its important not to confuse this strain with the very similar Texas Yellow Cap.
In addtion to being named after where they were first found, they are also named after their colors. As one could expect, Texas orange caps have orange caps. More so than the typical golden brown or tan that other cubensis exhibit. They also tend to be a little bit shorter and fatter than other cubensis mushrooms. But, don’t let their size fool you they are still very resilient as shown through their strong, aggressive mycelium. This makes it great for first time spore handers as it is tough against contamination.
Texas Orange Cap spores have been around since about the mid 90’s. Yet, they have had a significant resurgence in popularity in the spore community over the past few years. This is because many of the traits it exhibits are favorable to microscopist. Put these spores under the microscope and see what all the fuss is about after you buy these syringes!

Mr Shrooman –
These spores really came through ..this strain was a new one to me… massive spores when done in a large research chamber
Anthony Bagwell –
Product arrived quickly and with no issues. Spores were clean and syringe contained many of them! Very much looking forward to viewing these under a microscope and as always Troy was a pleasure. Will be ordering additional supplies from Sonoran in the future!
