In the 1970s, two of the most influential thinkers of the psychedelic era gathered what was then known about psilocybin botany and culture and presented it in Psilocybin: Magic Mushroom Grower’s Guide . Writing under pseudonyms, the McKenna brothers provided simple, reliable, and productive methods for magic mushroom propagation, including black-and-white photographs that showed the techniques of the time. The development of more modern cultivation techniques does not eclipse the cultural contributions of this book. Philosophical asides, whimsical illustrations evoking the mystical nature of mushrooms, and speculations about the relationship of these organisms to humankind provide a lasting legacy. Truly the classic manual on home cultivation, the wisdom of Psilocybin: Magic Mushroom Grower’s Guide continues to inspire new students of psycho-mycology—and refreshes psychedelic memories for others.

Bought this as a joke to a friend. It's actually pretty fascinating to read.Imagine living in the 60s when you had Liberties instead of freedoms.It must have been nice.

Classic Psilocybe mushrooms cultivation book!
A classic. One of the first guides of mushroom cultivation by Terence Mckenna and Dennis Mckenna. The pictures and drawings included are amazing. It also includes ethnomycological information of great interest.

Classic growing handbook
I like the non-growing parts of the book.I would recommend it to all the fans of TKM.I chose this rating because it really is an underground classic.

Great condition. Only problem I had with it was ...
Shipped fast. Great condition. Only problem I had with it was not an issue with the book or seller. It's more of an adult book (I know nothing about mushrooms at all lol) however don't ummm order this for your 10yr old who wants to know about all of them and how they grow and what ones you can eat and what ones will make you sick. This book is more advanced and not what we thought. Good information though was still pleased with the whole buying process =)

I can grow onions.
Book's great! But I'm still chicken to eat any mushrooms I find in the woods. I love the little white guys you buy at the local grocery store. I've had no success at growing my own. Book or no book. Dang!

In-depth, interesting, and incredible
How did these brothers pack such a short book with such dense, experiential, mycological knowledge I may never understand. Regardless, I am forever grateful to the McKenna’s and their intelligence and experience; specifically Terence for his wit and all the recordings. Om shantih

Raw facts, uplifting
This book gives you the minimum knowledge you need to grow, with old school techniques. Also, the author supplies some spiritually uplifting words of encouragement.

Good read.
Old but well worth a read, especially if your into growing certain types of "gourmet" mushrooms.... Remember it is old some some of the techniques are a little outdated.
