See: Frequently Asked Questions (for FREE links to ALL TEKs, trip music, & Videos, I do not use pay walls, only support if you feel you have benefited and can afford to do so). Thank you for your encouragement and support! I produce videos, TEKs & articles related to psychedelics with an emphasis on reputable research, science, practical application, reviews, safety, how to, commentary, and knowledge sharing. I've been called "The Bob Ross of psychedelics" 😂. I think psychedelics are worth exploring further (and so does the FDA as well as dozens of research institutions). I am glad I have been able to make some beautiful connections with a lot of people, to share and exchange knowledge about a fascinating subject, and to have played a role in many people having some of the most extraordinary experiences of their lives. One of my favorite viewer comments so far was "Gordo, must feel great knowing how many of us you've helped and then how that will trickle down and down, like how you passed your wisdom down to us and then we go on and pass it on to others, as it should be. You helped me help a friend of mine, when he came back he hugged me crying with the biggest smile on his face saying for the first time in 35 years he DIDN'T want to kill himself or just die!!! 😅😊I never felt so happy in my life, hearing someone tell you that is Amazing 🤗Thank You Gordo for helping us and helping me help others, it's Magical!!" I have received many wonderful messages such as these:
"You, my good sir, have helped me more than anyone in my life. I've figured out what's important, and what I can do away with. Time IS valuable and I'll never forget the work you put out to make me realize that."
"There are few people out there that give as much as you and I just want to thank you for that. At age 70 after losing my wife and moving from the country, I was severely depressed. Discovering mushrooms and learning the proper way to use them from your videos and growing them myself has allowed me to change my whole life from despair to hope and happiness. No more depression, no more bad drug habits. I wanted to die, now I'm happy to be alive in this wonderful age. Setting an example and showing the way will be repeated by myself and others. 😎"
"Awesome thank you so much for the advice, and again for everything! You’ve changed my life, and in turn, I’ve been able to change many peoples lives around me using the information and guides you’ve created. You’ve created a butterfly effect and are second handedly helping so many more people than you’ll ever know! You truly are changing the world ❤️."
"You are truly an angel to the people of earth. I sincerely admire your approach and professionalism. I found your channel a few years ago and it has allowed me to change not only my life but the lives of many others around me. I am forever grateful. I just recently rediscovered your Patreon with divine timing. I would like to start growing mushrooms for the health benefits and also mystical and healing experiences for myself and family and friends."
"Thanks for what you do. Helped me to get past some tough trauma."
"Gordo, I truly hope you realize your humanitarian work to share priceless knowledge and unquantifiable hours of mycology work is reaching every corner of The World. Your work is life-altering; healing mental and physical challenges beyond modern medicine. You are a true legend of our days with a legacy bigger than life, expanding for many generations to come. Thank you Gordo!"
"I just experienced a breakthrough after using your DMT TEK. My intent was to see God and I did, it was terrifying & beautiful at same time. I saw that I was made to spread love. I feel reborn because of what your guidance offered, words can never describe the ineffable gratefulness I feel for you providing an opportunity for true enlightenment. Life is fantastic!"
I love you for the wonderful human you aspire being!
"Hey Gordo, love and appreciate the content. It's been life-changing."
"Gordo, words cannot describe how grateful I am to you for sharing those spores. I finally found time to try Natalensis. I do not think words exist to describe the journey I experienced because it brought me back to a newborn stage where there were no words, only emotions. It was so beautiful and visual, so calm and blissful without any body load or fear and anxiety creeping in. This is the only mushroom I want to experience from now on. Thank you so much for all you do."
"You've been an extremely positive impact on my life! I was a heroin addict for over 12 years before I found your work 5 years ago, today I have 5 years clean and I just wanted you to know how much joy you've brought me by educating and instructing me through the process to obtain these life upgrades."
"I love you Gordo, you saved my life a few years ago with DMT."
"I am grateful that you share your passion and knowledge to interested folks. The work you do is life-changing and life-affirming. Many would be in a darker place without you."
"Your information about EVERYTHING has changed mine and my wife’s life in the past 2 years. I am a retired biochemist/med school professor, so I can appreciate how well done so many of your TEK’s are for helping those less trained in science. I had a lot of psychedelic experience as a kid, none for about 40 years, but going back in has helped me so tremendously and your TEK has been so very helpful. I saw your note about your loss recently, and just wanted you to know that there are so many that love and care for you out here. I hope you can feel it. Blessings to you and everything you do."
"I want to sincerely thank you for your video about the John’s Hopkins psilocybin protocol. I have been following it and last week had my first high dose experience. Your soundtrack was amazing in facilitating a life-changing mystical experience! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, content, and more with the community! 🙏 "
"3 months later, I still read the 'life is short' note you wrote to me every day. At that moment in my life, receiving that was like receiving lightning. I've never been the same 🙏💙 THANK YOU"
"The work you have put in is greatly appreciated - without sounding cliche, you really are saving and changing lives, so thank you sincerely!"
"I know it's not much but I have decided to keep the monthly contribution because I think what you're doing for humanity is incredibly important, and I hope it covers a stamp or two for other fortunate individuals :) Wherever you are, may you be surrounded by joy and love."
"Gordo, the effects from 2g of your TTBVI were other than anything I had ever experienced… You can say, where other species cannot even end in deep impact, your TTBVI started from that place!!! The other species are just circling outside of a room, TTBVI started from going inside that room and dimensions very very easily. The others can be physical walking moving in hyper state, TTBVI was totally focused within my body and mind... I went in for 4 hours, I lost time and space. It felt like 4 years had passed… I went in that dimension I met with my universe CREATOR which you can say GOD, I processed my sins and shortcomings of my life and asked forgiveness. “It was the most successful trip of my life. I processed very deeply about my life, wife, kids and family in this trip and how to solve my life's difficulties. It was the deepest trip I ever had, and now I cannot compare TTBVI OR pan cyan genetics with cubes or nats at all… Like pan cyan is on a completely different level and dimension then cubes or nats and according to me they cannot be compared. I don’t think a TTBVI 2g trip nats and cubes can give this type of experience even at 20-30 grams because nats and cubes take you round and round from outside that dimension and TTBVI takes you inside that dimension very very easily. My experience is a feeling and I cannot really express my feelings completely in words what happened in TTBVI dimension… "TTBVI trip was very very deep , but at the same time I felt it was very gentle on my mind and body. I did not feel the unwanted pressure I feel on high doses of cubes and even on cubes high pressure it cannot make me go as deep as where TTBVI made me go in only 2 grams easily. I really loved and enjoyed this trip a lot and I am in debt for you for life sir, for such a peaceful and awakening experience. "All previous trips of my life were at a very low level and the TTBVI trip was so much higher level that I cannot express in words. It was so deep, so deep yet so gentle. My communication went for hours and was very very clear, the most clear communication of all trips I have ever taken. Without the side effects that other species give me.”
"I was transformed. I was staring at my self in the mirror doing DMT. My image started morphing into my father, not all the way but I could tell I was me and him--fully conscious, full light, standing up. Then I saw past all of our angry negative interactions. I saw me as him, I saw the whole him. I understand him. I finally knew I was always loved, always wanted. 50 years of pain left all at once, it was amazing. I can think of my past and there's zero pain. All of our exchanges have new meaning. My gratitude is deep. It's affecting my work and my home life in transformative ways. I started mending things with my family of origin--after 20 years of estrangement. My memory is sharp, my depression is gone. This is just one of a number of great experiences I've had."
"DMT was beyond my imagination. I don't know what to make of it, mind blown. I believe I received some sort of healing directly from it, and they told me this. My wife was amazed and looked on as I was awe struck."
"I just wanted to drop you a note telling you how transformational your advice and research has been. I feel wonderful almost all of the time 🌺"
"I love listening to your videos, your voice is very calming and you radiate magnificent energy 💜"
"Thank you so much, my buddy has grown Nat’s and Pans from your genetics, and they were the most pleasant, therapeutic trips of my life. It’s so cool that your work has reached so many corners of the globe."
"Through your DIY attitude, a lesson is learned: this is nature, this is transformational, and this is you. YOU have to be an integral part of your experience. You don't outsource thinking. Thank you again, you are truly a gem. I hope your impact and attitude is being felt by new and old, throughout the vast digital landscape our society has constructed."
"I don’t know how I can thank you enough!! I am so glad I stumbled across your articles that led me to your Patreon! Sorry for the rant but I can’t help myself 😬 I made the dreamaker tool and fasted for around 8hrs. I have never experienced anything so profound! For 20min the only words I could say where Wow…..Wowwwww….Holy Shit! And Wowwwwwwww!! The only thing that can remotely compare is LSD. Otherwise it pales absolutely in comparison to the experience gained with DMT! There are absolutely no words. I’ve been trying to explain it to my wife but I can’t. Best I can come up with is being blasted through to an other worldly kaleidoscope like wormhole into a new dimension that’s light years from where you left your physical being. Beautiful geodesic, landscapes, and creatures. I could have sworn I could see the molecular structures of everything around me. Like I was looking through the physical space between atoms. There was so so much more that I wish I could explain but I think it’s going to take me weeks to unpack this experience 😊 Thank you so much for making this experience attainable to so many people, you are amazing!!! Thank you 🙏🏻 again!"
"Thank you so much for all of your research and writeups. I found the Hopkins protocol writeup to be incredibly valuable. I think you are probably helping far more people than you'll ever know."
"I really appreciate all your hard work and time you contribute to the craft and the community. You are a beautiful selfless being who's given so much to so many. Thank you"
"I’m finally winning the battle against addiction thanks to psilocybin. It opened my eyes to so much and I now have the strength! I know my mind is powerful enough to get through it along with the love of my family. Thank you!"
"Thank you for what you do, the mushrooms have helped my wife and I with our issues more than anything ever has, and believe me, I’ve tried almost every other thing in the world to help myself and our family with the issues we have. The amount of progress I have made in a couple months is truly remarkable. I have been trying to break these cycles I have been in for many years."
"Just so you know my friend you are a big positive movement that happened in my life and that helped many others🙏🧬 much love brother 💪"
"The silicone just finished curing in my GordoTEK Laminar Flow Hood! Having found your content feels like cheat codes, but since i'm gaining time above all else, i'm so grateful!"
"That video was very valuable to me. I really appreciate you my man. Much love I mean really Gordo. What a god send. Who are you brother? Why are you so much more amazing than the rest of our species? Beautiful feeling. You are an incredible person."
"Took 150μg with 2 friends and an angelic trip sitter, listening to your playlist. I’ve never felt so perfectly guided, safe and in touch with the tumult of the human experience. It took me to every corner of emotion cradled, knowing it would spiral back to the light. Nothing but gratitude for what had flowed through you. That is masterpiece and a priceless creation you’ve brought to this plane. All blessings upon you."
"THANK YOU. I have never had success quite like it and following your TEKs for both types of mushroom I have had incredible success. I have yielded significant fruits from all my recent endeavors and I have your flow box and cultivation videos all to thank for it."
"You obviously have a very kind heart and are a blessing to many people. You are a difference maker in this crazy world!"
"Love your work. I quit drinking about 15 years ago but was having trouble with relapsing. Then I discovered microdosing and haven’t had a drink for over 5 years. Your videos have been a huge help! I pass my knowledge on to help others also."
"I totally understand why you do what you do. It’s truly an incredibly beautiful feeling to know you’ve helped someone change their life for the better. Growing their own medicine that blows pharma away. Colors brighter when you didn’t realize how dim and dull they had become. Being able to experience true joy. Being present and patient. Enhanced memory and focus, list goes on and on."
"Mushrooms have changed me... for the first time in my life , I am starting to become happy and enjoy life (I am 35)"
"For our Natalensis experience our setting was at home with no kiddos. Very seldom do we get the chance! We each took 2g Natalensis, put some good jams on and attempted to go about our normal evening however we were both blown away at how quick they set in and took effect! The following couple of hours were definitely an experience we won't forget! We ended up lying down together laughing, and were both just blown away with the visuals and euphoria. Natalensis is my new found favorite, so much thanks to you!"
"I am new to mushrooms. The only reason I got interested is because of my daughter who suffers from depression. The medicine they gave her only makes her sick and doesn't help. A relative who works at Johns Hopkins told me about some studies that doctors are doing with psilocybin to treat depression. I am on a waiting list to see if I can get my daughter into the next program but I decided to take things into my own hands and long story short, my daughter has never been better. She is a new person. I hired a trip sitter in the beginning to make sure she was safe and we never looked back... I owe it all to this little fungi."
"I had a major breakthrough treating my own PTSD two weeks ago with pan cyan. I had been experiencing brain fog and something like amnesia for years; Huge swaths of memories of my life have been missing from my memory. The mushrooms allowed me to identify and process some traumatic memories that I had been blocking, and that gave me access to a flood of other memories I had lost. The process was painful, but the subsequent relief was tremendous. I guess it's emotionally analogous to passing a kidney stone. Bottom line, I feel like myself again. This is really wonderful medicine, and I want to thank you again for the all the work you've done to make it accessible."
"You should get a Nobel peace prize for all the peace you’ve brought folks."
"You know how personal and intimate the relationship with the mushrooms are. People's whole wellbeing sometimes at stake. Your integrity is inspirational. I want to also be of service."
"Mushrooms have saved my life from depression, anxiety, and a host of other things. My life has become much more organized and productive. It has helped me quit drinking. Thank you for all of your knowledge and sharing it with us."
"I must thank you for guiding me to a different level of mindset and change in my life. Years ago, I decided to extract and make my own DMT, seeking relief from some dark issues I had. You were not only a "tekkie", but something more, a guide and giver of free knowledge seeking to help others. My experiences in the realm of DMT may have just saved my life."
"Gordo I have to share. I took 1g of TTBVI and I had already set myself up for an evening of just lying in bed with some music. 20 minutes after taking them my entire face was numb like I had been to the dentist so I lay down and just closed my eyes. Eventually my entire body became numb and my consciousness was pulled from my physical form. I was being held in the most comforting embrace looking down at the outline of my physical form. Something powerful and positive was holding me and singing in my ear but it was speaking to me. The full story is way too much, but I do know TTBVI are in some different class all their own."
"My wife and I discovered you a few years ago and our life has changed for the better."
"You are amazing, my friend. Your work has done more to help with my chronic depression than 20 years of therapy and any antidepressant. Thank you so much for everything."
"A coworker I gave some 🍄 to told me that he's talked to God before on psychedelics, but with the pan cyans it was the first time he got a response. Thanks again for all you do and keep it up."
"I just received your letter. Man I cannot say how happy and excited I am. You are truly doing god’s work! And I am sure this has a positive impact on humanity, especially all down the line."
"Gordo I wanted to message you to tell you that you've impacted my life and the lives of everyone around me in such a positive manner - I can never really repay you even if I had all the money and resources in the world. But I plan on supporting the cause."
"Gordo, thank you for your pan cyan TEK. Had a nice yield and took an experimental 0.3g test and to be honest it was the most deeply spiritual experience I have ever had. This mushroom really is the crown jewel of the fungi kingdom. Thank you for teaching me and opening my eyes to this magical experience. I have been going through a really rough patch recently and God spoke to me today and said 'Do you really think I created you to be weak, you are stronger than you think and you must keep going.' Thank you Gordo you are a blessing on this world."
"They were amazing! They produced so much it was crazy. Amazing genetics, man. Thank you so much for this, you have no idea how much you have helped me. Stay awesome ❤️"
"Yesterday a friend thanked me because I provided him with 🍄 and it helped him change his idea about his life and ending it, he is so much better now. I think I’m one of the few magic mushroom growers in Iraq (the only one I know of). I remembered your 'about' page and big smile was drawn on my face. Thank you so much for helping me and helping others."
"My Dad shot himself a few years ago and these 🍄 finally let me grieve. Every time I cross over I'm with him in his favorite places and we talk about serious life events and how to improve, and it's like he never died and I always feel better about life and it always helps further my growth. Your TEK was the first I ever tried, thank you for making it available, it's changed my life for the better!! Thank you so much!!!"
"I have experimented with various strains of cubes- GT, PE, APE, APEr... etc, and none of them are even in the same universe as TTBVI. Cubensis is a pretender. They should be embarrassed to call themselves anything other than inferior. On 1g of the GordoTEK pan cyan genetics I experienced the saddest, loneliest heartache imaginable while at the very same moment, I was experiencing the most pure and beautiful love possible. They existed together and it was amazing and beautiful. I spent time with my father, he has been dead for almost 20 years. I apologized for things I have done - I felt his pain. I felt the universe, I experienced the universe, I was the universe! I can't express how thankful I am to you for making this experience possible. Thank you!"
"I’ve been struggling with severe depression. The mushrooms have changed my life and gave the willingness of living back to me."
"Gordo, your TEK helped me to produce enough mushrooms to 100% heal my depression almost 5yrs ago. For that I am forever grateful to you for sharing the knowledge. The spores will not be just for me but it will do good for many people including an oncologist that studies the effect of psilocybin on cancer patients. I am hoping that this study will also help in legalization of psilocybin in Europe. Fingers crossed everything goes to plan, and that this beautiful medicine will help many more."
"Your focused and high achieving efforts are inspiring. The research has been so uplifting. I don't mean to disrespect the community, but your content is 'best of the best'. If you're going to do something, you might as well do it well. Top shelf. This is the farthest, highest, richest, cleanest! I love how you build on your knowledge from the past and look to the present movers and shakers and are world class and yet also with outstretched hand to help others. Also, more importantly, you make the point of moving forward, improving through integration the mental and spiritual gains."
"I create 🍄 capsules for my wife who is on chemotherapy, and they help immensely. I am super thankful for all of your hard work and information!"
"Over several days after a deep experience with pan cyans more and more memories from the trip came up. I had taken a few days off of work to do mindful integration work. Things kept coming and coming. After a few days I regained the state of being completely unburdened by my main issue that was my intent going into the trip. I did, actually find my cure. ALL of my anxiety and depression centered on this core issue disappeared entirely, and seemingly for good. All the fear that related to this core issue was gone and I was no longer held back. There is really no word for this mushroom, it's in a league of its own for sure. Massive thank you to you, Gordo for spreading these treasures!"
"Another great thanks for your safe and easy DMT extraction TEK. I had excellent results and the guardians of the realm allowed me to see the boss who left me bathed in love while being in the midst of the neural/universal linkage with portals opening and closing."
"My experience with the pan cyans was so beautiful and spiritual and has helped me greatly, and I will always be forever grateful for you and your help. I aim to pass on everything you have provided to me to anyone else for free as a means to pay it forward."
"Thank you for your hard work and generosity, I appreciate it and thank you from the bottom of my heart, it has been transformational to my spiritual journey. I can't express in words how much this has meant to my wellbeing and outlook on life. One of the most profound experiences of my life, I know you understand the significance. Thank you again."
"I tried 0.8g of TTBVI and it turned out to be the trip of my life. My house shone everywhere. Where there were reflections, there were rainbows, everything was beautiful. I felt a true sense of well-being and even joy. Outside, each plant, each tree seemed to have its own entity. I almost felt as if they had identities and I could communicate with them."
"Hi Gordo. I wanted to thank you again and let you know what a wonderful help you have been to my wife. She suffers from MS. As a neurological disease, there are frequently weird and painful symptoms. I find neurologists to be dismissive of anything they haven’t heard of before or just treat her like she’s crazy. Hence my search for a better medicine for her. And part of me could cry with the improvement lately. Her depression symptoms have improved tremendously, her muscle spasms are FAR less frequent, and she can even feel sensation in her hands and feet again. You are amazing. I hope one day doctors actually take this kind of medicine seriously. I hope you are well and that love and happiness you have given us comes back to you 10x."
"I won't forget about you, I will always break a piece of bread off of my love and give you a piece, you deserve it buddy. I never met anyone like you, you had a profound effect on my life, you just don't know it but you have."
"Gordo, I just tried Natalensis (grown from your prints) and all I can say is WOW! My girlfriend and I only had 2g each and I can say WITHOUT A DOUBT that our experiences with these were by far the BEST out of anything either of us have had before. In fact I was so impressed I HAD to know where they came from and in turn that's how I learned about your channel! Props man… not worthy!! Lol. Very euphoric, the visuals were out of this world and the experience was overall one I will never forget! Thank you!"
"I learned and applied your TEK while struggling with general anxiety disorder. At the same time, I was seeing a psychiatrist and she told me to stop taking the medications I was taking because they weren't working for me. After my system was cleared (20-day drug-free period), we were supposed to start new antidepressants. But instead, I started experimenting with my freshly grown mushrooms. I had never eaten mushrooms before, so I started with smaller trial doses to get a feel for the experience. After small fun trial doses, I had my first session with my eyes closed with a high dose and listening to one of your linked Trip Music playlists. It was a tear and snot filled experience. It was not devastating tears, but rather a cry full of understanding and purification. I've never felt so relieved by crying before. After the session, my anxiety, which I would have given 9 out of 10, decreased to 4. Second session after 2 weeks! It was like I was touched by a magic wand. My anxiety has not returned since that day. Since then, every 2-3 months, I put on my headphones and lie on my bed, letting the magic wand touch me again. Just thanking you for something like this is not enough. My life has changed. I thank you with all my heart for sharing what you learned with the world in a responsible manner."
"Bless you Gordo! You are exactly the person this community needs to guide it. This is not meant to be a ego boost, you are a good, kind person with great wisdom and scientific knowledge. You are where you are needed. The scientific, psychological, and medical fields all need to focus on what matters. The monetary world serves only one master and that master is cruel and heartless."
"Gordo, I cannot begin to describe the immense gratitude that I have for the work you have done and how it has changed my life, possibly saving it. I’m still active duty, with 4 combat deployments diagnosed with PTSD. I broke down in 2021, spiraling into severe anxiety and depression abusing alcohol as well as emotionally abusing my wife through my violent mood swings. On top of that a tumor in my brain was discovered as well…it is benign but had grown in a location that cannot be operated on, the stress of this all was unbearable. I tried many treatments via military medicine, Lexapro, Wellbutrin, Prozac…nothing was working. I was in a dark place and i feared that self harm was an eventuality. I’m being vulnerable and taking a risk sharing my story with you, obviously plant medicine is 100% not allowed. I had nothing to lose except my life, is how I saw things and in 2022 decided to try your DMT-TEK… and I was given such profound amazing experiences that helped shift my perspective and give me light in my darkness. I moved on to your 🍄 teks to create plant medicine for myself, it has been a game changer and I’m beginning to see a “Me” that I thought was long gone. I FEEL again, I CRY again, I’m HAPPY, I’m human and I’m alive! I owe you so much, I know I am just an internet stranger however I am immensely thankful I found your posts and threads. Thank you, and I hope that one day I can do something to repay you. Keep up the amazing work and be proud to know that you played a part in quite literally saving my life."
I wish every one of you the best and thank you from the bottom of my heart! The funds raised here will go toward further psychedelics research and cover any expense I have in conducting related experiments and in producing new content. See my FAQ for links to content.
