History of Enigma
Enigma was first discovered as a mutation in a grow of Psilocybe cubensis. The grower noticed that instead of producing normal mushrooms, the mycelium produced these unique, brain-like growths.

Because Enigma is a mutation, it does not produce spores, making it more difficult to propagate. This adds to its rarity and mystique.
