Z-Strain Isolated Spore Syringe – 10cc | Spore Genetics

Isolated Z-Strain Spores—refined for fast colonization, meaty fruits, and consistent microscopy results.

A powerful lab-derived lineage of Psilocybe cubensis, Z-Strain rose to prominence in the 1990s thanks to its lightning-fast colonization and robust flushes. This isolated version, prepared in-house by Spore Genetics, focuses on a single stable phenotype—producing medium to large fruits with signature caramel-to-gold caps and thick, fibrous stems.

Unlike many wild-type spores, this Z-Strain Isolate demonstrates aggressive rhizomorphic mycelium and is favored by researchers for its dense, high-contrast spore loads and ease of use. Designed for 5-grain jars, rye spawn, and bovine-based casing substrates, this isolate is a prime choice for beginner and advanced spore collectors alike.
