Albino Penis Envy Magic Mushrooms

Appearance

Albino Penis Envy mushrooms are one of the most visually striking varieties of Psilocybe cubensis. They feature thick, bulbous stems and dense, underdeveloped caps that often remain partially closed. True to their name, they are an “albino” variant, displaying a ghostly white to pale ivory coloration due to the lack of pigmentation. The caps sometimes show a subtle bluish tint or faint golden hue at the center. These mushrooms are smaller in size compared to many cubensis strains, but much denser and meatier in texture. When handled, they bruise deep blue—an indicator of their exceptional psilocybin content and potency.

Origin

Albino Penis Envy (often abbreviated as APE) is a unique mutation derived from the legendary Penis Envy strain, one of the most potent and sought-after varieties of Psilocybe cubensis. The “Albino” characteristic is not a true genetic albinism but a leucistic mutation, resulting in reduced pigmentation while maintaining the powerful genetics of its parent strain. APE was selectively stabilized by dedicated cultivators in the mycology community seeking to combine the extreme potency of Penis Envy with a visually stunning, almost ethereal appearance. Today, it’s recognized as one of the strongest and rarest strains available, prized by experienced users and collectors alike.

Caution

Albino Penis Envy is one of the most potent Psilocybe cubensis strains known, often containing significantly higher concentrations of psilocybin and psilocin than typical varieties. As such, dosing should be approached with extreme care:

• Beginner dose: 0.3–0.7 grams dried

• Moderate dose: 1–1.5 grams dried

• Strong dose: 2+ grams dried (for experienced users only)

Due to its intensity, a calm, safe environment and a trusted sitter are strongly recommended. Individuals with underlying mental health conditions should consult a professional before use. Respect for the mushroom’s power is essential for a safe and meaningful experience.
