Opening a Discussion About Panaeolus cyanescens
I wanted to start a broader conversation about experiences with Panaeolus cyanescens. I am fortunate enough to live in an area where they grow naturally, and after good rains, I can go out and pick them in the wild. That alone feels like a gift, and I definitely want to hear about others' experiences with these skinny, strong guys.
Recently, I had a very meaningful experience using only one gram prepared as a tea. The effects were surprisingly similar to DMT in tone. The visuals felt highly decoded and almost mechanical, with a sense that I was seeing or sensing the inner workings of my own neurons and the inner sanctum of my brain. I saw mechanical bugs eating away at the code, which I perceived and integratively still believe I was viewing what psychiatric medicine was doing to my precious noggin. The experience had a hyperspatial quality that felt deeply connected, immersive, and real. I also noticed that the tea produced almost no nausea, which made the whole experience feel very clean and clear, where I've done plenty of cube tea and usually it's a lot more on the woozy side if not puking.
I have read many different potency estimates for this species, and a common range seems to be around two to two and a half times stronger than general Psilocybe cubensis, but I'm sure many cubes I don't know of are super strong as well.
Based on my one gram experience, it felt pretty accurate though.. It was not overwhelming, but it was unquestionably a proper and very visual journey with a deep message and highly interesting state of what the visuals represented.
I would really like to hear from people who have used Panaeolus cyanescens and can speak to how it compares to other species or whatever you would want to share about your general experiences with them.
To help guide the discussion, here are some questions I think could be interesting for people to answer or ruminate on (AI helped)
God bless the cows!

To help guide the discussion, here are some questions I think could be interesting for people to answer or ruminate on (AI helped)
- What dose range have you found to be effective for you?
- Do you experience a noticeable body load or is the come-up clean and light?
- Are the visuals sharper or more “DMT-like” compared to cubes?
- Have you found them to be consistently potent, or does potency vary from batch to batch?
- How would you compare the introspective or cognitive effects to cubes or other species?
- Do you notice differences in nausea, stimulation, or clarity?
