Avery’s Albino

Psilocybin Mushroom Strain Guide

Origin

The origin of Avery’s Albino mushroom strain is somewhat mysterious, with conflicting accounts of its creation. One theory suggests it is a true albino variety of the A-Strain, distinct from the Albino A+ strain, which is leucistic rather than a true albino. Another theory proposes that Avery’s Albino is an albino isolation of the Cambodian strain.

According to the most popular narrative, the strain was developed by a Shroomery user known as “Albinous White.” He allegedly created Avery’s Albino by cloning an albino mutation of the Cambodian strain over multiple generations until the genetics stabilized. The strain is said to be named after his daughter, Avery, adding a personal touch to its story.

Appearance

Avery’s Albino is a stunning strain of psilocybe cubensis, known for its true albino characteristics. Unlike many other strains that are labeled as “albino” but are actually leucistic, Avery’s Albino lacks any pigmentation, resulting in a completely white appearance. The fruiting bodies of this strain are ghostly pale, with white caps and stems, giving them a striking and pristine look that stands out among other mushrooms.

The caps are typically smooth and round when young, gradually flattening as they mature. The gills underneath the caps are also pale, and like many psilocybin mushrooms, they bruise blue when handled, further enhancing the visual appeal. Its unique visual beauty, combined with its potent effects, has helped it become a favored strain among enthusiasts.

Expected Experience

Avery’s Albino mushrooms offer a potent and clear-headed psychedelic experience. Users report vivid visual effects, including bright colors and intricate patterns, along with a euphoric and introspective mental state. The trip often enhances creativity and emotional insight while maintaining a sense of clarity, unlike some strains that can feel mentally clouding. Physical sensations, such as a mild body high, are gentle and pleasant. The effects last 4 to 6 hours, with a strong peak about 1 to 2 hours into the journey, making this strain popular among experienced users seeking a balanced yet powerful trip.

Dr. Delic’s Field Notes

I spent 6 months bumming around the US Virgin Islands trying my best to embody Jack Kerouac in an attempt to discover myself. I was presented Avery’s Albino on a beach by my new friends for that day and hung around with them during the come up before walking off on my own.

“I ended up at a beach bar where this cheesy Caribbean style DJ music was playing, along with a disco ball that was reflecting yellow bubble looking things on the ground; they revolved around the room and there were a few dancers on the floor. It really wasn’t as interesting as I had thought it might be, although a purple light there seemed to be shooting wavy light that moved with the music. It was loud in there; the sound distortion was real. Vocals felt like they emanated from the back of my head while the rest of the sound came in from the front of the stage. I got some ice water, and it felt so good likely because I was dehydrated. I closed my eyes and the transition was seamless; the purple light filled my vision while it was changing colors, and I saw many 3D patterns that were originally people’s shirt designs. From this point on, psychedelic patterns would come from just about everything, eyes open or not.”

The island at night could be equally spooky and whimsical. I was ready for both.
