Albino Bluey Vuitton (ACS iso): the albino side of a 2014 hybrid

Albino Bluey Vuitton, usually shortened to ABV, is the unpigmented form of a hybrid whose history is documented further back than most lines in the library. This is that history, and what the albino side changes on the slide.

01What Albino Bluey Vuitton is

Albino Bluey Vuitton is an isolated Psilocybe cubensis line, catalogued as Albino Bluey Vuitton (ACS iso), the A.C.S isolation of the albino form of Bluey Vuitton. It is supplied as a LOT-logged spore syringe for microscopy, taxonomy and research.

02Lineage and history

The line goes back further than most. The library's own record puts Bluey Vuitton at around 2014, credits the original work to the breeder Silly Cybin, and describes it as a hybrid of Panama x Melmac Penis Envy. That gives the family a Penis Envy parent, which explains both the thin spore deposits and the readiness of the line to throw albino expressions.

Albino Bluey Vuitton is the unpigmented isolate taken from it. A.C.S have worked the line since, and the library carries two of their cards: this one, the broader A.C.S isolate, and ACS ABV440, a numbered selection out of the same pool. Alongside them sits the pigmented parent, Bluey Vuitton.

Three cards from one lineage, in three pigment and selection states, is the most complete family study available in this chapter.

03Under the microscope

Expect the ordinary cubensis spore form, subellipsoid and thick-walled with a germ pore, carrying almost no pigment. A print runs pale grey. Because the Penis Envy side prints thinly, the drop will be sparse: dilute less than you would for a pigmented line, lower the lamp, and close the condenser diaphragm partway.

The study to run is the three-card one. Bluey Vuitton for pigment, this card for the albino line, ABV440 for one numbered selection out of it. Same objective, same light, twenty spores each, and the differences in pigment, deposit density and size spread all land on a single page of the notebook.

04Where to buy Albino Bluey Vuitton in the UK

Albino Bluey Vuitton is in stock now. The card is Albino Bluey Vuitton spore syringe in the strain library. Every syringe is a 10 ml luer-lock, filled in a flow hood from a logged print into sterile water, capped, labelled with the strain and its LOT, and refrigerated until it is packed.

  • Price: isolated lines are listed at £20 per syringe. The card shows the current price, including any sale.
  • UK shipping: £3.80, and free on orders over £75. US orders ship at a flat $8.
  • Dispatch: one to two working days from the UK, tracked, in a plain padded mailer with no branding on the outside.
  • Every order is 18+ and confirms lawful microscopy use at checkout.

Browse the rest of the collection on the Mushrealm and A.C.S chapter, or open the strain library to filter by species, format or isolation status. If anything arrives cloudy or damaged, email a photo and the LOT number and it is replaced.

Specimens for this story: ACS ABV440 and MFH Ape, all prepared under sterile protocol and LOT-logged in the UK.

Questions people ask

What is Bluey Vuitton a hybrid of?

The library's record describes it as Panama crossed with Melmac Penis Envy, originally worked by Silly Cybin from around 2014.

What is the difference between this and ACS ABV440?

Same lineage, different scope. This is the broader A.C.S albino isolate; ABV440 is one numbered selection out of that pool.

Can I buy this strain legally in the UK?

Spores contain no controlled substance and are sold for microscopy, taxonomy and research. Germinating them is an offence in the UK, which is why every specimen here is supplied strictly for microscopy. See our Legal Use Policy. This is not legal advice.
