Gorilla Spores Editorial & Research Standards
Our Commitment to Accurate, Responsible Information
At Gorilla Spores, we are committed to producing clear, accurate, and responsible educational content related to mushroom spores, microscopy, and strain documentation. All content published on this site is intended strictly for lawful research, educational, and reference purposes.
Our editorial standards are designed to ensure that information remains factual, up to date, and presented in a way that respects both scientific integrity and legal boundaries.
Scope of Our Content
The Gorilla Spores Research Team focuses on:
- Psilocybe cubensis strain reference material
- Spore morphology and microscopic characteristics
- Comparative strain analysis
- Handling, storage, and preservation of spores for research
- Legal and ethical context surrounding spore ownership in the UK
We do not publish content related to cultivation, growth methods, yields, or the production of controlled substances.
Research & Source Standards
All educational and reference material published on Gorilla Spores is developed using:
- Established mycological literature
- Reputable academic and educational sources
- Comparative microscopy observations
- Cross-referencing between multiple sources where applicable
Where historical or anecdotal information is referenced (such as strain origins), it is clearly identified as such and presented cautiously.
Accuracy & Review Process
Every article published on Gorilla Spores undergoes a structured review process:
- Initial research and drafting by the Gorilla Spores Research Team
- Fact-checking against known mycological references
- Language review to ensure clarity, neutrality, and responsible presentation
- Legal and ethical review to ensure compliance with UK law
Content is periodically reviewed and updated when new, relevant information becomes available.
Legal & Ethical Boundaries
Gorilla Spores operates within the boundaries of UK law.
- Mushroom spores are discussed strictly in the context of microscopy, taxonomy, and research
- No guidance is provided that would facilitate illegal activity
- Psilocybin-containing material is not promoted or discussed in actionable terms
- Educational context does not imply endorsement of unlawful use
All references to legality are intended to inform readers, not to provide legal advice.
Neutrality & Objectivity
Our editorial approach prioritises:
- Neutral, descriptive language
- Evidence-based observations
- Clear separation between fact, interpretation, and historical context
We avoid sensationalism, exaggerated claims, or speculative conclusions. Where uncertainty exists, it is acknowledged transparently.
Independence & Commercial Transparency
While Gorilla Spores offers spore products for lawful research use, educational content is not written to promote specific purchases.
- Reference articles are created independently of product listings
- No paid endorsements or sponsored strain content is accepted
- Commercial links, where present, are clearly identifiable
This separation ensures that educational integrity is maintained across the site.
Author Accountability
Educational content on Gorilla Spores is produced by the Gorilla Spores Research Team, a collective responsible for research, review, and publication standards.
Author information is clearly displayed on reference pages, and responsibility for accuracy and compliance rests with the editorial team as a whole.
Corrections & Updates
If an error is identified or new information becomes available:
- Content is reviewed promptly
- Corrections are made transparently
- Material is updated to reflect current understanding
Readers who believe content may require clarification or correction are encouraged to contact us.
