Extreme: 2.1%–3.0%

Origin & Genetic Lineage
Makilla Gorilla is a highly unique and exotic strain of Psilocybe cubensis developed through advanced isolation techniques. Though its precise ancestry is rooted in underground cultivation networks, it is widely accepted that this strain descends from Penis Envy genetics, prized for their exceptional potency and thick, meaty morphology. It also incorporates traits from other vigorous cubensis lines to create a distinctive hybrid with bulky growth and high alkaloid content.

History & Community Spread
Makilla Gorilla first gained attention in small, invitation-only cultivation circles focused on isolating elite genetics with heavy fruiting potential. Since then, it has spread through spore libraries and competitions, recognized for its massive stature, striking visual appeal, and consistent potency. Its dense, knuckled fruits and exotic profile have secured it a reputation as one of the most unique cubensis varieties available today.

Appearance & Morphology
Makilla Gorilla produces very large, dome-to-wavy shaped caps with caramel to nut-brown coloration and golden edging. Many caps retain remnants of their veils or show torn fragments from rapid development. The stems are short, extremely thick, and gnarled—dense and fibrous with a strong blue bruising response when handled, indicating rich psilocin content. Spore production is moderate to low, making it more ideal for cloning than mass spore printing.

Potency & Effects
Makilla Gorilla is rated as High on the Tanasi Potency Scale and is known to offer powerful, immersive experiences. Its effects are not for the faint of heart and are best suited to experienced users or therapeutic facilitators familiar with navigating deep, extended sessions. Common reports include intensely visual journeys, ego-dissolution, emotional catharsis, time distortion, and profound sensory immersion. At higher doses, users often describe an “anchored” body load paired with psychedelic clarity and introspection.

Cultivation Notes
Makilla Gorilla’s colonization rate is medium-fast but denser than average, requiring optimal moisture and substrate balance. It thrives on enriched substrates such as CVG fortified with manure or composted organics. Fruiting works best after a 7 to 10 day consolidation period following colonization. Ideal fruiting conditions include stable temperatures between 70 and 74°F with high humidity and indirect light exposure. While it can be prone to short flushing windows, fruits tend to be extremely dense and large.

Special Traits
This strain is prized for its PE-like morphology and resistance to contamination. The combination of chunky growth, aesthetic uniqueness, and consistent alkaloid performance makes Makilla Gorilla a standout for bulk monotub cultivation and photography. Due to its limited spore drop, many cultivators rely on tissue culture and clone work for preservation and expansion.
