Hello Silk Road Members!
I am announcing my vendor status here on the Forums. I would like to invite everyone to use this post as a form of review, questions, and complaints.
I am a 15year veteran of cultivation in Magic Mushrooms. Up until this point I've done my business IRL.. but I'm ready to stick my neck out a bit to see if I can find a broader market to my uniqueness.
I have created some killer strains of Psilocybe Galindoi Atlantis and Psilocybe Cubensis(Gulf Coast, B+, Cambodian). I mainly specialize in the P. Galindoi Atlantis though, for they are quite stealthy to grow and fit my life's routine better.
Psilocybe Galindoi, if you're unfamiliar with it, is a species of psychedelic mushrooms that produce a fruitbody invitro. It is technically a survival mechanism for the mycelium. The species grows hardened masses to store water and nutrients for survival in harsh conditions. These "stones" produce similar effects to the Cubensis mushrooms. The fruit bodies have many names on the internet: Philosophers Stones, Magic Truffles, Sclerotia, Cosmic Compote). The weights for consumption differ slightly from what you would expect of a Cubensis fruitbody. Typically considered 2/3 the potency of cubensis. I have mixed feelings on this common(yet new) opinion of potency as I can experience a fun time with as little as 1gram doses.
I encourage everyone to take a minute on the net and do some research on Psilocybe Galindoi, there are many resources out there.
I personally enjoy the effects from Sclerotia over Cubensis.. though very similar, the Galindoi tends to have a less chaotic feeling. I would compare it to putting a steering wheel on your tripping experience.. rather than spinning out into the cosmos on a ride you can't control.. at any given moment you have the clarity to steer the trip as you see fit..
I will be offering my wares in several formats, depending on how you like them.
Cubensis varieties will be sold dried. I offer encapsulation in 00 capsules at no extra charge. Otherwise the cubensis will be shipped whole & dried.
Sclerotia will be sold in: Whole Fresh(Vacuum Sealed), Whole Dried(Vacuum Sealed), or Dried Encapsulated in 00 capsules.
Fresh sclerotia will survive a week, vacuum sealed and non refrigerated. It will make the journey through standard USPS shipping methods, but I highly recommend putting them in the fridge upon arrival. Stored in the fridge fresh can last upto 30 days, though I've had several baggies make it 3+ months(your mileage may vary). Dried sclerotia can store for years in the freezer.
I am currently building my listings and will have them up later today.
If you have any questions or comments I will be happy to answer them here or through PM.
I look forward to doing business here.
Thanks!
Galindoi

Got some ideas for pricing? They sound very interesting.
-
The cubensis will be typical silk road pricing, minus a bit to encourage new sales for a new vendor. I'm thinking around $25 -1/8 with prices getting better as quantity goes up..
The sclerotia fresh will be around $1.50/gram, pricing dropping as quantity rises..
Sclerotia dried(Capsules or Whole) will be around $3.00/gram... again, quantity dropping that price a bit.
My personal dose recommendations for sclerotia, dried.
170lb person...
1gram = Mild mushroom effects, heightened vision and hearing details, strong physical stimulation.. similar to a good doobie and 3 beers.. well suited for a night out with friends
3grams = Closed Eye Visuals, Light Open Eyed Visuals, Deep Thoughts, slight ego disruption. Probably won't want to go out on the town...
5grams = sit down somewhere
10grams = Your reservation on god's couch has been accepted, please wait in the lobby till we call you in.
I will offer several quantities for sclerotia... as well as some sample quantites so folks can try them out with out investing to much at first.
-
definitely interested once SR comes up. any chance of getting samples or reviews for people?
-
I will be putting out some samples to purchase at half price. Single dose quantities priced to cover shipping +a little... It will give buyers a better chance of sampling for reviews as well as covering my costs.
I'm thinking around $10 for 5 Psilocybe Galindoi capsules.. that will include shipping costs. 5 capsules is enough to produce a happy response in most people, me thinks.
The cubensis listings will be pretty straight forward. I'm hoping to build a market for my sclerotia stockpile.. cubensis is cubensis.. I may offer some sample listings on these, but I'm going to focus on the Sclerotia market first.
I'm working on the listings now.. hope to have them up soon.
Thanks!

Interesting. How would you personally say that the sclerotia compare to cubensis? In regards to the trip, not the potency. And how long would the sclerotia keep when dried?
-
I can honestly say, once I experienced a Sclerotia trip I have never gone back to cubensis.
I think the spirit of the beast aligns with me better than cubensis.
I would put it on par with cubensis as far as the body high goes.
Visuals seem to be a little less at similar doses, but I've experienced much better Open Eyed Visuals than cubensis on higher doses of sclerotia(30grams fresh or 10grams dried). I find I have a higher level control over the whole trip, body wise, mentally and controlling the hallucinations. I've gone grocery shopping on 8 dried grams... while I was lost in the store, I still had an extremely functioning mind while doing it.
In the pool of psychonauts I call friends, all have become converts to Sclerotia from cubensis. I have a harder time moving regular cubies when I have sclerotia in stock.
The only draw back I get from complaints is the fact you have to eat a little more to produce same level effects as cubies. IE: 5grams dried sclerotia = 3.5grams cubensis. This is my opinion on dosing.. other peoples opinions may vary...
All in all, sclerotia is a much easier to control trip.. no discombabulation at all.. like racing a sports car thats fine tuned.
Taste-wise, sclerotia are different. If you have problems with cubensis(nausea), then you'll probably appreciate the sclerotia much better. I would compare it to putting a penny and a lemon in your mouth at the same time..(fresh) taking them dried is best by brewing a tea with them or taking the capsules.
-
Hi,
Really interested in the strains you have available, can you ship to the UK/EU? ideally capsules as they'd be more stealthy/less hassle
-
@onestopshop: I am probably going to be limiting shipping to USA only. At least until I get my feet wet in this new format of shipping.. I will be willing to ship internationally once I get shipping processes dialed in. Thanks for asking.

Looks good. May I ask why you would even sell 2.5g dried? If 5g sclerotia is roughly equal to 3.5g cubensis, it seems like it'd make more sense to sell 5g over 2.5. Or just by the pill with a minimum of 5-10. Just my opinion.
How do you pronounce Sclerotia? Is it more of a sclerosha sound or more like scler-oh-tee-a?
-
@Aliahad: I put the 2.5g up there so people could test the product at a minimal cost. Pretty much just covering shipping and packaging with the price. 2.5grams is enough to show a person a good time. Not sure the best way to introduce these. While they are utterly fantastic, trying to convince trippers to try something new and unheard of (usually) is comparable to explaining the world isn't flat in year 1368.
And it's pronounced Sclerotia: "sclerosha"...
Any one have some suggestions for how to bring this product into the trustable level for buyers? Aside from a landslide of FREE FREE FREE? I would gladly send out samples at the shipping costs? Is pushing the transaction through SR worth it for just shipping costs?
Thanks!

I'd be testing out some of your sclerotia right now if I hadn't already purchased some elsewhere, but hopefully I'll get to in the future. =]
-
There's a listing for 10grams dried and capped on SR now. Just cover shipping costs and I'll send anyone a sample.

I will take you up on that. I have really wanted to try these truffles out.. ive only had cubes all my tripping life
-
Once my PIN gets reset I will turn to you to test these Galindois out- only ever had B+, I am excited!
-
Is it just me or is there some big PIN conspiracy? So many people including me have seem to have forgotten theirs! BTW wish most people weren't sketched out by pills, because those encapsulated shrooms are a great deal.
-
People are a little sketched out by mushrooms anyways.. not a year goes by that I don't read in the paper about somebody mis-identifying an edibile mushroom and killing or nearly killing themselves and their families... I think that energy resonance lives on in peoples heads.
Wrong Shroom = death.. Then you throw in sketchy drug dealers(or fake-drug dealers).. I'd slap the shit out of the guy who sold me my first bag of shrooms if he tried to sell me the same bag now.. fucker.. I understand peoples apprehension when it comes to shrooms and encapsulating them.. but the same people will suck down a smarty with "acid" on it in two seconds.. go figure..
These capsules are just going to have to build trust on the market.. my IRL crowd loves em.. left me holding onto cubies they were passing over for stones..
Anyways..

I personally think it's a fucking awesome idea. I just know that people outside my immediate friends probably wouldn't buy them due to being sketched/uneducated about it.
