Bye-Bye MycoBox. Hello InocuBoxâ„¢ (and Ps. Tampanensis!)24th April 2025

We have just launched our brand-new Cyspec InocuBoxâ„¢ Grow Kit, which is the successor to the Cylocybe Special MycoBox Grow Kit.

Not only that, but we will soon be launching the full range; InocuTubâ„¢ / InocuPotâ„¢ / InocuBagâ„¢ over the coming days and weeks.

These are the biggest changes to happen since we launched our MonoBox Grow Kit back in 2021, and a big deal to us on our never-ending pursuit to bring the absolute best quality grow kits you can find in the UK. The entire Inocuâ„¢ series of grow kits are a major jump in quality, value, speed and cleanliness but with no jump in price – rule-breaking at its finest!

Before we go, today we added to the shop fascinating Psilocybe Tampanensis spores (my absolute personal favourite for the microscope!), with stocks of various new Psilocybe cubensis spores such as Lizard King and more ready to be processed into syringes over the coming days.

New Spore Products and Faster Dispatch13th April 2025

Within a couple of hours or so, we’ll be updating our spore offerings for you guys. We’re talking Psilocybe Azurescens, Psilocybe Cyanescens, Panaeolus Cyanescens, and more Psilocybe Cubensis like Red Boy and Tidal Wave. We’re even adding a wonderful sclerotia / truffle type that some of you may have heard of called Psilocybe Mexicana, with a personal favourite called Tampanensis (which takes me back to younger microscopy days…) coming within a week or two.

Today is a special day for us and this is what we’re all about, exciting spores! Oh, and no biggie, but we’re aiming soon to drastically change the way we do things. How does “Same day dispatch or your money back” sound to you? It has quite a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? 🙂 That is what the new Cylocybe is going to be and we’ll be introducing this imminently.

Positivity.8th March 2025

Since our reopening last month, we have been busy at work battling all the typical road bumps that come after an extended break, but this past week has still felt the happiest it has at Cylocybe in 4 or 5 years. It feels fun again. Our new premises is where it’s at; more space, cleaner, warmer, and with great vibes.

We’ve learned so much over this past year off, personally and professionally. Can we tell you something though? We’ve felt utterly miserable running Cylocybe for years. Everyone who knows us knows how we’ve felt about Cylocybe for years. But it wasn’t Cylocybe that made us feel that miserable; it wasn’t the customers, it wasn’t the hard work involved—it was everything else. Being locked into a 5-year lease for a unit we only took on to avoid a neighbour shouting at us about all the delivery lorries is a good example of us looking out for someone else’s interests rather than our own, at the expense of years of working in a miserable unit inside a miserable industrial park. That decision was one of the worst we’ve made, professionally and personally. It’s indescribable just how much of a toll it has taken on us. But now that whole situation is in the past and we can finally see positivity.

We’d also like to address a recent change on our site. Previously, we had a system in place to prevent certain products from being offered to new customers—a measure intended to slow orders down from new customers and create a system to reward loyalty. However, that code began to cause bugs, slowed the shop, prevented search engines from seeing our content (oops), and caused a wee bit of confusion for customers. Having ADHD, I constantly have new ideas. I like building new things and testing ideas—some are good, some are bad, and some just need more work. I know that some people send messages saying we constantly try things and then revert; very true (that’s just who we are!). Anyway, we have disabled that feature for now. All products are available to all customers.

Thank you for your continued support and patience as we work through new ideas (and maybe break things then fix things along the way!).
