The Lizard King strain was named in honor of a famous anonymous mycologist, known on the Internet under the pseudonym "Lizard King". This mycologist discovered Lizard King and several other Mexicana species while exploring rural areas of Northern Mexico.
Lizard King was found growing on decaying wood, which is unusual for a strain of Psilocybe cubensis and possibly makes it one of the few strains that thrives on such a substrate. 99% of other cubensis strains found typically grow in pastures, manure, or swampy areas.
This strain is not demanding of growth conditions and can grow on a variety of substrates. The only disadvantage is its possible increased sterility requirement compared to other strains.
Lizard King is known for its ability to produce strong fruiting bodies in clusters, but the mushrooms themselves are usually not as strong as most Psilocybe cubensis.
