About Basidium Equilibrium

I’m Brandon, founder, lifelong mycophile, and the guy who still gets goose‑bumps every time a fresh plate bursts with mycelium. I began tinkering with spores in 2015, chasing the hidden logic of mushroom genetics. Somewhere between late‑night agar pours and the first clean isolate, the fungi also had life changing effects on me. Working with them taught me patience, precision, and a deep respect for nature’s quieter powers. It also provided a avenue for me to heal myself in many ways. 

Those lessons guide everything we do at Basidium Equilibrium:

• Rock‑solid genetics – No strain leaves the lab until it’s isolated, stress‑tested, and proven vigorous—clean, consistent, and resilient by design.

• Community over competition – We actively support decriminalization efforts that bring safe, legal access to veterans and other qualified folks.

• Education that matters – From speaking at the Entheogen Expo (SoCal) and Oklahoma Fungi Fest to being featured in High Times Magazine, we share what we learn so the field moves forward—together.

• Giving back – A portion of every sale supports research and advocacy groups such as the Beckley Foundation, MAPS, Heroic Hearts Project, and Veterans Walk and Talk.

Join the conversation

Our community lives well beyond this website:

• Patreon – exclusive posts, behind‑the‑scenes lab notes, and live Q&As: patreon.com/BasidiumEquilibrium

• Discord – an active, welcoming server where we swap ideas, microscopy shots, and real‑time advice (invite link – https://discord.gg/qzghHae9)

Whether you’re peering through a microscope for the first time or refining your hundredth isolate, you have a place here. Ask questions, share observations, push the science—we’ll supply genetics you can trust and a community that’s got your back.

Thanks for being part of the journey. Let’s keep exploring, healing, and discovering—one spore at a time.
