The differences between Psilocybin and Mescaline

Simply put, Psilocybin comes from mushrooms while Mescaline comes from cacti. The go to cactus for Mescaline is called the Peyote and the go to mushroom variety for Psilocybin is called psilocybe cubensis.

The effects from both these psychoactive are often seen as similar but also different. Think of it as comparing basketball and soccer. Both are a sports, bothe use balls, but are played differently. Comparing the effects is very difficult as each person perceives things differently. However, many people find that cacti work better for visual fun whilst shrooms are more for the mind (thoughtfulness and wonder). Some also say that the cactus effect last longer (up to 12 hours) while the truffles and shrooms usually last around 6 hours.

For psychonauts, Psilocybin can be a bit to intense, but conversely, hilarious and undescribable. So to everyone that is curious, why not double dip!
