Description
Hillbilly Mushroom Strain Information
The Hillbilly Magic Mushroom is a fruit that hails from down south USA and is named after the mycologist who first identified the sub-variety. This mushroom is highly domesticated, making it extremely easy to grow. In addition, Hillbilly is very resistant to contamination. This genetic variant is renowned for its ease of growth, domestication, and forgiveness.
Hillbilly Effects
The Hillbilly mushroom has a reputation for providing a warm, euphoric, and balanced visual and thought-provoking experience.
Hillbilly Appearance
The mushrooms produced by Hillbilly genetics can vary from vendor to vendor. The original specimen looks quite similar to most P. Cubensis varieties in that it produces golden top mushrooms with a slender stalk. However, years of isolations and mutations of the fruit have produced some genetics that more closely resembles other designer variants. These isolates typically have very thick stalks with unusually small caps in comparison to the stalk size.
Growing Hillbilly Mushrooms
The Hillbilly is a highly domesticated variety that is known for its forgiveness to less-than-ideal conditions and is very resistant to contamination. That said, this mushroom is one of the easiest to cultivate. The first flush of the Hillbilly will typically be of large fruits sparsely separated across the growing surface. Subsequent flushes are typically smaller in size but more abundant.
There are a variety of different ways to grow Hillbilly mushrooms. Yet, the most beginner-friendly method is to fruit directly from the bag using an all-in-one bag such as this one from Mushroomsupplies.com. However, if you are looking for more hands-on experience, we would recommend using a grow-chamber setup using grain spawn and a manure-based substrate. We have found that the easiest grow chamber setup consists of using a tin container. You can read the full post on how to grow mushrooms using tin containers here. Below is a summary of this post:
- Inoculate grain bag with 3-5cc of Hillbilly liquid culture or spores via spore syringe.
- Store the inoculated grain bag in a dry area for colonization making sure to maintain a substrate temperature of 84-86. Colonizing mycelium generates its own heat, so an ambient room temperature in the high 70s is recommended.
- Once fully colonized, prepare the tin container and begin layering the substrate and colonized grain. Begin and end with a layer of the substrate.
- Set aside for re-colonization (10-14 days)
- Prepare the li by adding fresh air holes and cover with micro-pore tape.
- Replace the lid and place the tin into fruiting conditions. Reduce the ambient temperatures to reduce the substrate temperatures to 74-78 degrees F.
- Mist the inside of the chamber lid when needed.
