Why choose the Cambodian XL?
The Cambodian is already one of the fastest colonisers in the GetMagic® range — pair that speed with the 2100 ml XL substrate and you get rapid, aggressive flushes with significantly higher yields. If you want a quick turnaround and maximum harvest from a single kit, the Cambodian XL is hard to beat.
Cambodian psilocybe cubensis was originally discovered growing near the ancient Angkor Wat temple complex in Cambodia and introduced to the West by renowned mycologist John W. Allen in the early 1990s.
The mushrooms produce broad, golden-brown caps (20–60 mm) on thick, dense stems (40–130 mm) that bruise prominently blue-green. In the XL format, the larger nutrient reserve pushes individual mushrooms to grow taller and heavier than in the standard 1200 ml kit.
The experience is visual, energetic, and clear-headed: vivid open-eye patterns, a warm body buzz, and a bright, sociable headspace. Cambodian sits in the moderate potency range — strong enough to be immersive but manageable for most users.
Growing the Cambodian XL
The setup is identical to the 1200 ml kit — same grow bag, same instructions. The Cambodian’s aggressive mycelium means the XL kit often pins almost as fast as the standard size, despite the larger substrate volume. Keep the temperature at 24 °C and expect to see pins within 7–14 days. The XL kit typically delivers an extra flush or two compared to the standard, so don’t retire it too early.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between the 1200 ml and 2100 ml XL kit?
Same strain, same method, bigger box. The XL contains nearly double the colonised substrate, which translates to higher yields (400–800 g vs. 200–400 g), larger individual mushrooms, and typically an extra flush or two. The Cambodian’s fast colonisation means the XL barely takes longer to start pinning than the standard size.
What yield can I expect from this 2100 ml XL kit?
The Cambodian XL typically produces 400–800 g of fresh mushrooms across multiple flushes. This strain is known for aggressive, dense flushes — some growers report the first flush alone exceeding 300 g. Actual yield depends on temperature, humidity, and hygiene during the grow.
How many flushes will the Cambodian XL produce?
Most growers get 3–5 flushes from the XL kit, with the first two being the largest. The Cambodian’s fast recovery between flushes means you can complete a full grow cycle quicker than with slower strains. After each harvest, simply soak and restart — the instructions explain the process step by step.
