The two that
changed everything

Two original crosses out of Q's lab took the myco-world by storm. Not a re-release, not a rename. His genetics, his cross, his isolation. The community made them fan favourites and they have not slowed down since.

Deep blue bruising over dense, wildly mutated fruits. Blue Voodoo is the cross that put What The Fungi on the map, and the one people still ask for by name.

Thick leucistic flesh under blue-grey caps. Gamma Decay is the other half of the pair that carried his name out of Australia, and the one that turned heads in the States.

Two crosses. One lab.
A whole scene that noticed.

First stocked by

MycoWorld

MycoWorld put Blue Voodoo and Gamma Decay on the shelf first, and the pair became their two favourite strains in the range.

Then carried into the

USA

Mushrealm took both genetics stateside. Gamma Decay and Blue Voodoo have taken over the USA on the strength of those two crosses alone.

And backed by the

Community

Fan favourites across the myco community. Two originals that took the myco-world by storm and stayed there.

The portfolio

Twenty-nine more released genetics: original crosses, single-strain isolations, wild Australian landrace collected at the source, and one Panaeolus. Plus his print, swab and sample sets. Every one prepared as a research sample for microscopy and taxonomy work.

The breeder

Q is a breeder, an isolator, and the reason three separate things in this scene exist. What The Fungi is his own lab. It is not the only thing he built.

What The Fungi

His own lab and the name on the samples. Thirty-one genetics released so far, two of them originals that travelled further than anyone expected.

The look is his too

Every label, poster and emblem under the What The Fungi name comes out of the same place the genetics do. The alien at the bench, the brush-cut logotype, the icy graffiti lockup: it is one brand, drawn on purpose, and it is why a sample is recognisable across a table at a glance.
