Acid Test • Blotter Sheet

Product Description

Meet the legendary Blue Meanie — one of the most famous and sought-after strains of Psilocybe cubensis. Renowned for its intense blue bruising and powerful characteristics, this strain delivers a striking visual display and robust performance.

Blue Meanie is celebrated for its aggressive mycelial growth, generous fruiting, and vibrant blue oxidation when handled — a hallmark trait that gives the strain its name.

The spore prints are rich, dark purple-brown, and highly detailed under the microscope.
