Like other Psilocybe in this group it is presumed to contain psilocybin, which is controlled in many countries; check local law before any cultivation.

Where it grows wild

Unknown; the fagicola complex is mostly associated with humid forest soils. The only record falls in lowland northern Oaxaca.

The single record is at 31 m, but the grid cell is at 451 m; the fagicola group is mostly montane, so the elevation is uncertain.
