About
Golden Teacher Mr. Krinkle is a novel and quirky variant of Psilocybe cubensis, named after the enigmatic character from the Primus song “Mr. Krinkle.” Known for its unusual growth characteristics, dense fruiting bodies, and surprisingly deep psychedelic effects, this strain is a cult favorite among experimental growers and psychonauts looking for something visually strange yet spiritually rich.
History
The origin of Mr. Krinkle as a cubensis strain is shrouded in underground cultivation lore, likely selected from a mutant or expressive phenotype of a Golden Teacher hybrid. The name suggests a reference to the odd and unpredictable fruiting style—possibly wrinkled caps, thick stems, or strange flush patterns—which have become part of its identity.
Despite its unconventional appearance, Mr. Krinkle delivers a well-rounded and potent experience, often mystical and introspective, with hints of surreal visuals and emotional catharsis.
