Blue Meanies Strain Summary
Known scientifically as Psilocybe natalensis and colloquially as “Blue Meanies” or “Super Natal Strength,” this strain has many traits similar to Psilocybe cubensis. However, genetic testing of Blue Meanies spores has confirmed that it’s a unique species of its own. It has been described as a sort of a hybrid between P. cubensis and Pan Cyan (Panaeolus cyanescens) in regard to its chemical compounds and morphological traits. In comparison to P. cubensis, it is vigorous and highly resistant to disease and contamination.

Important Research Factors
Difficulty
P. natalensis spores are considered one of the more difficult species to work with. Though they share many properties with P. cubensis, there are some major differences that create a learning curve for novices. Blue Meanies spores are great for people that want to challenge themselves or experience something truly unique.
Warning: Cultivating mushrooms or mycelium propagated from these spores is illegal. Not only can you get in trouble with the law, but they contain much higher concentrations of psilocybin than Psilocybe cubensis strains.
Spore Features
Blue Meanies spores are dark purple to brownish on 4-spored basidia, and usually leave large dark prints that are 30-75mm in diameter. With their high spore count, they provide ample research material.
Rarity
Authentic P. natalensis spores are quite difficult to come by. In fact, many “Blue Meanies” products online may be referring to a different species altogether. Thankfully, Eden Shrooms has been selling these since 2008. We rely on a team of mycologists that test each batch for strain origin, contamination, and viability. Thanks to them, we can confirm that our Blue Meanies spores will be quite the unique addition to your collection and a pretty awesome strain to work with.
Cultural Significance
Psilocybe natalensis is one of the most beloved and least understood magic mushroom species in the world. Though its story is really just beginning, this mushroom has found a sturdy niche in the American and Canadian mycological communities. It is currently a driving force of mycological study in North America!
