Description
Mazapatec Spores!
Comes with 10cc of Mazapatec spores, an 18g needle to get your spores onto the slides, and an alcohol wipe so you can ensure that your microscope is super clean.
So this one’s a bit weird – it seems to be called both Mazapatec and Mazatapec depending on what your source is. Who knows! We’re going with Mazapatec, because we’ve already printed up all the labels! These have reportedly been used down in South America by shamans, for hundreds of years. Shamans = criminals, I guess. Aren’t nature crimes weird? Imagine someone trying to haul a shaman off to prison just for trying to seek a bit of spiritual truth. Bonkers.
I’ve seen these Mazapatec spores described as “tough and aggressive” colonisers online, so take that as you will. Obviously don’t go doing any of that kind of shit with them, look at them under the microscope! They’re another Psilocybe Cubensis phenotype, so they will be pretty easy to check out with your no-doubt amazing microscope. Accessibility in mycology is important to me, which is partly why I stock a lot of the various Cubensis spores like Natal Super Strength – keeping things simple is cool. These prints actually do come from all the way over that side of the world, which is nice!
Ideally, keep these Mazapatec spores refrigerated, where they will happily last a couple of years. Magic mushroom spores are tough like that – don’t let them freeze though! Failing that, you can keep them in a nice dark cupboard where they’ll be just fine for at least six months. They’re pretty simple to store. You can even use them multiple times, just replace the needle cap back on (don’t remove the needle as that’s one more chance for contaminants to get in there), and the next time you go to use them, heat the needle up with a lighter until it glows red. Simple! You could even put them back into the supplied bag if that’s your jam.
These Mazapatec spore syringes have been produced in the UK using a flowhood in order to make sure that what you see under the microscope is exactly what’s supposed to be there and nothing else – just premium Mazapatec spores!
Handy dos and don’ts:
DO:
- Keep it somewhere cool and dark, it’ll keep for 6 months+
- Keep it in the fridge maybe, it’ll last for years there
- Enjoy microscopy, it’s a great hobby
- Read/watch a variety of microscopy techniques across sites like Reddit and YouTube, knowledge is power
- Be really clean when you’re handling it, it’s critical
DON’T:
- Drink it. You can, it won’t hurt you, it’s just very expensive pop at that point
- Try and grow anything with it, unless you live somewhere where that is legal
- Store it anywhere dusty, dirty, or hot
- Try and do your microscopy in a drafty, dusty room
