LAB-GRADE MAGIC SPORES IN THE UK.

43 Strains for Microscopy. No BS prices.

The UK magic mushroom spores market is flooded with overpriced SAB-produced spores. We’re here to fix that. Our 12ml spore syringes are now the same price as our old 3ml syringes. Just clean, viable spores from the world’s best cultivation labs, delivered next day within the UK.

We stock a huge range of magic mushroom spores, from all-time customer favourites like Psilocybe cubensis Golden Teacher spore syringes and Psilocybe cubensis B+ spore prints, all the way to the harder to find magic mushroom spores like Psilocybe Cyanescens and Mexicana Jalisco.

If there are any magic spores we don’t have, let us know and we’ll put an order in.

Mushroom Grow Kits

The Easiest Way to Grow Mushrooms from Syringe

Our mushroom grow kits are the result of years of refinement. We’ve taken the guesswork out of mushroom cultivation, creating a foolproof system that works for everyone. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced grower, you’ll love the simplicity and reliability of our kits.

We offer three distinct systems to suit your growing style…

For a simple, high producing all-in-one kit, we have just relaunched our customer favourite XL Cylocybe Special MycoBox Grow Kit which is arguably the most recognisable mushroom grow kit we’ve invented at cylocybe.

For a truly impressive harvest, the MonoBox™ kit is our powerhouse. It’s based on the most popular techniques for growing big, beautiful mushrooms with minimal fuss. We’ve simplified a standard technique using our custom SpawnTubs, removing the need for jars and expensive equipment.

To grow a lots of mushrooms at monstrous speed, the brand new MycMonster™ released on 28th July, 2025 can get you from spore to fruiting stage in only 10 days thanks to our newly developed Substrate B.

Liquid Culture Syringes

The Pro’s Secret to Growing Gourmet Mushrooms

Step up your cultivation game with our premium liquid culture syringes. Unlike starting from spores, liquid culture contains live, actively growing mycelium suspended in a nutrient broth. This gives you a huge head start, leading to faster colonisation times and more reliable results.

We offer a curated selection of the world’s most sought-after gourmet varieties…

Grow incredible, brain-boosting Lion’s Mane. Famous for its unique, tooth-like appearance and sought after for its cognitive and neurological health benefits, this is a truly special mushroom to cultivate.

Add a splash of vibrant colour to your grow with Pink Oyster mushrooms. Not only do they look stunning, but they are also aggressive colonisers, making them one of the fastest and easiest varieties to grow.

Cultivate the classic culinary choice, Shiitake. Renowned for its rich, umami flavour, growing your own Shiitake is a deeply satisfying way to bring an authentic gourmet experience to your kitchen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. In the UK, it is legal to possess and sell mushroom spores for the purpose of microscopy and research because they do not contain any active psychedelic compounds. It is, however, illegal to germinate and cultivate them. All our products are sold for legal research purposes only.

A spore syringe contains dormant spores in a sterile water solution, intended for microscopy. A liquid culture syringe contains live, growing mycelium in a nutrient broth. Liquid cultures are used for cultivating legal gourmet mushroom species and result in faster colonisation than starting from spores.

Most spore-only orders are dispatched same day when ordered before 3pm on working days (Monday-Thursday) and everything else within 0-5 working days. Once dispatched, UK delivery times vary depending on the service chosen at checkout (e.g., Royal Mail Tracked 24/48). You will receive a tracking number via email as soon as your order is on its way.

We guarantee our spores are viable and free from contamination for microscopy purposes. If you believe there is an issue, please contact us within 6 weeks of dispatch with your order number.
