About
Blue Meanie is a highly sought-after variant of Psilocybe cubensis known for its intense potency, heavy blue bruising, and powerfully visual psychedelic experience. Despite sharing a name with Panaeolus cyanescens (another species nicknamed "Blue Meanie"), this is a cubensis cultivar, bred to amplify psilocybin content and deliver a deep, often overwhelming trip. It is one of the strongest cubensis strains available.
History
This strain likely originated as a mutation or selection from a wild cubensis exhibiting strong blueing, which was then isolated and propagated for its potency and resilience. Over time, it has gained a reputation for high yield, fast colonization, and a trip profile that combines vivid visuals with intense body sensations and euphoria.
Though its name causes confusion, the cubensis Blue Meanie is distinct from the Panaeolus cyanescens species of the same nickname.
