Potency
The Hillbilly strain is known not for its potency but for its lack of it. It produces just 0.49% total tryptamines (0.23% psilocybin and 0.11% psilocin). While it may not appeal to those seeking highly psychedelic mushrooms, it’s perfect for those interested in microdosing psilocybin.
The strain’s tryptamine composition produced abnormally high levels of “norpsilocin.” Although a derivative of psilocin, norpsilocin is less potent in its psychedelic effects.
