Z-Strain Mushroom Spore Syringe Kit

Disclaimer

When you buy Z-Strain spore syringes, be aware that they’re considered “active spores” which are for microscopy purposes only. DO NOT CONTACT US ABOUT ANYTHING REGARDING CULTIVATING OR GERMINATING Z-STRAIN MUSHROOMS. 

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 Z-Strain spores, 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, spore syringes 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.

Z-Strain Spore Information

Despite the actual origin of this variety being unknown, Z-Strain has become one of the best and most well known Cubensis genetics on the market. Some say it was first found on a pile of dung in the Hawaiian islands and was isolated in a lab. Others say that a mycologist named The Keeper (same mycologist who isolated Creeper) isolated Z-Strain from Golden Teachers. Another popular theory is that Lipa, a user on Shroomery, created Z-Strain spores by crossing Mazatapec and Thai Lipa Yai (both Cubensis varieties). 

In our opinion, the mystery behind the beginnings of Z-Strain makes it even more fun to work with and study! Whichever origin story you believe, if any, one thing is for sure- these genetics belong in every researcher’s library. They’re great for beginner and advanced researchers alike because Z-Strain spores are easy to work with but also provide results that pack a punch! They can also handle a wide range of temperatures and humidity levels and still generate robust and healthy research.

Why Buy Our Z-Strain Spore Syringes?

We strive to provide you with the cleanest possible products. We make all of the Z-Strain spore syringe solution in front of Laminar Flow Hoods with HEPA filters. These HEPA filters have an efficiency rating of 99.97%. Meaning that the filter removes 99.97% of particles in the air. To make the actual spore solution, we take clean spores and mix them with sterile distilled water. Then, a magnetic stirrer properly mixes the solution to ensure an even distribution of spores throughout the solution. 

• Ships next business day
• Discreet packaging
• Spore syringes remain viable for around 1 year
• Store spore syringes in the fridge for best results
• Do not freeze

Microscopic Features

Z-Strain spores can vary in color from dark purple to black. They’re are subellipsoid (ellipse) shaped and they are present on a 4-spored basidia. The caps range from 40-60mm in diameter with a convex to conic shape. Generally, Z-Strain Mushrooms leave behind very dark prints which makes them excellent for providing future research specimens.
