The Genetics you need to grow mushrooms
The Mazatepec mushroom variety is steeped in the lore and tradition of the Mazatec peoples who inhabit Mexico's Oaxaca province (southern Mexico). This variety has been used by the indigenous Mazatec for thousands of years in rituals, healing ceremonies, and to communicate with "the gods".
The Mazatepec mushroom strain gained widespread notoriety after R. Gordon Wasson (a banker and mycology enthusiast) visited a famous shaman (Maria Sabina) in the town of Huautla De Jimenez and underwent a life changing experience after taking psilocybe mushrooms administered by Sabina. Wasson wrote about his experience in a famous Life magazine article which is generally regarded as the publication that introduced "magic mushrooms" to western civilization. It is unclear exactly what mushroom variety Maria Sabina actually gave to Mr. Wasson, however it is quite possible that it was the Mazatepec Strain.
