TYSON 2.0, a brand led by legendary boxer, entrepreneur and advocate Mike Tyson, has just teamed up with Advanced Mycology to introduce Mikeadelics, an all-in-one at-home mushroom grow kit. This new product marks parent company Carma HoldCo‘s first entry into the burgeoning psychedelic industry, aligning with Mike Tyson’s long-standing personal interest in psychedelics, the company states.
Currently, Mikeadelics is rolling out to smoke shops nationwide and can be purchased through its website.
“Mikeadelics represents a personal journey for me,” said Tyson in a news release. “My interest in psychedelics has been well-documented, and I’m excited to offer a product that makes growing mushrooms accessible to everyone. This kit is a game-changer and makes the process simple and enjoyable.”
“We are thrilled to introduce Mikeadelics, a product that not only broadens our product offerings but also aligns perfectly with our mission to innovate and deliver unique, authentic experiences to our consumers,” said Adam Wilks, CEO of Carma HoldCo. “This launch also signifies our entry into the psychedelic space in a legal, compliant way, representing a significant milestone for our company.”
Grow Your Own Shrooms
Designed to simplify the process, the Mikeadelics kit eliminates the need for tubs, tents or a dedicated clean grow space. The main challenge in mushroom cultivation is maintaining extreme sterility, but TYSON 2.0 Mikeadelics tackles this with a filter strip technology that enhances airflow and protects against bacteria and mold, the company states.
The process is straightforward: inject your liquid culture (not included), wait for the fruits to form and then harvest. Each retail box includes a TYSON 2.0 Mikeadelics all-in-one grow bag, detailed instruction booklet, inoculation data label, alcohol wipe and a Mylar storage bag with a dry pack to store the dried mushrooms, according to the company.
Consumers will have the option to inoculate the grow kit with liquid cultures of their favorite psychedelic or edible mushroom, which can also be found at Advanced Mycology. Each grow bag yields roughly 1/2 oz of dry mushrooms, with the potential for two to three harvests per bag, the company states.
