About

Golden Teacher Cambodian is a vigorous, fast-growing variant of Psilocybe cubensis that merges the spiritual depth of Golden Teacher with the energetic, visually stimulating traits of Cambodian cubensis. This strain is favored for its reliability, resistance to contamination, and balanced psychedelic experience—offering both visual intensity and emotional clarity, making it ideal for exploration, reflection, or group use.

History

The original Cambodian cubensis was reportedly collected near Angkor Wat by mycologist John Allen in the early 2000s. Known for its rapid colonization and strong visuals, it quickly gained popularity among cultivators. The Golden Teacher Cambodian variant likely resulted from either hybridization or phenotype selection that emphasized Golden Teacher's calm introspection with Cambodian's powerful visual and energetic profile.

This strain is often praised as one of the most accessible and dependable high-performance variants.
