Daddy Long Legs

Daddy Long Legs

Common Names: Golden Teacher, Golden Cap

About

Golden Teacher Daddy Long Legs is a visually distinct and energetically uplifting variant of Psilocybe cubensis, characterized by its exceptionally long, thin stems—much like the spider it's named after. This strain pairs the wisdom and serenity of Golden Teacher with a more light-bodied, visual-forward experience, offering a journey that’s often described as euphoric, visually expressive, and intellectually energizing.

History

The original Daddy Long Legs strain was discovered in British Columbia and quickly gained recognition for its lanky morphology and high visual stimulation. This variant is likely a cross or phenotype isolation incorporating Golden Teacher’s spiritual tone and D.L.L.’s physical form and uplifting trip profile.

It is especially appreciated by psychonauts who enjoy light, social, or artistic trips with enhanced visuals and mental clarity.
