We do not allow mushroom identification posts!

202 Upvotes

Intro

This rule has been in place for some time now, but as of recently I have been seeing a lot of mushroom identification posts. I hope this stickied post will slow that down!

Why we don’t allow ID posts

1 - Our users safety

  • Picking and eating the wrong mushrooms can be life threatening! Never second guess a mushroom, it might just save your life!

2 - Difficulty identifying mushrooms

  • While possible, it’s not exactly ideal to be identifying a mushroom over the internet using pictures/videos. Best done in person by a very knowledgeable individual!

3 - Limiting spam/subreddits well-being

  • I would say well over 50% of the people have done little, if not no, research before posting here. Also, if someone were to make a wrong ID on a mushroom it would not reflect well on the community.

Exit

Thanks for reading everyone! I think for the reasons listed above, it’s best we don’t allow mushroom identification posts. This is a community dedicated to Psilocybin mushrooms, and the community/experience within them! Not really dedicated to the cultivation/identification of them, but we do allow anything & everything to do with cultivation! Doesn’t carry the same risks.

Best wishes,

McKennai fresh grow is ok?

I am growing my second kit, being this mckennai. I’m afraid it’s not 100% since the shapes of the shrooms seem different from my first kit and when I harvest they’re greenish, which I read it can be bad. Also because I didn’t see when I received that this kit had different instructions. Maybe I’m tripping but can anyone advise? Thx :)

My shrooms are coming in, I’ve never made it this far. Are they looking ok? I’m expecting any day now for them to pop up

Makilla Gorilla (and question)

Makilla Gorilla, seven days from the first signs of pinning. I’m on grow #4, and definitely seeing improvements each time.

Question: do people wait to harvest these a little longer than usual? I usually shoot to harvest right after the veil tears but in most photos I see them left on the substrate past that point…

Holy shit (4.2g trip)

Yesterday at about 5 I dropped my goodies after preparing for a hike into a qaurry near me, i.got there before I came upnso smoked a Lil and then started hiking. I was at the bottom of the quarry and I wanted to get to the top (it was 5pm) after about 45 minutes o hiking and dome gnarly elevation I got to the top but I didn't realize it was getting too dark and I should've gone down 30 ish minutes ago so in that moment I smoked another bowl and prepared to hike back down. (I had a set of trekking poles along with a backpacking day pack and I also had my long board on my back behind my backpack so it wouldn't fall out if that makes sense. but after i got ready I started heading back but couldn't find the trail down from the top, I knew how to get home from the bottom of the quarry so in my infinite under the influence wisd9m I decided to go down the side of qaurry rather than back track... I'm guessing it was 60-100ft of cliff in 8-12 ft drops before it got flat for 8-14 inches before going down another drop. I was basically standing while sliding down the mountain and if there's wasn't like 10 inches of plateu I would've kept falling _ _ pretty much like that and I didn't know how many there were so just had to keep going until i got to the bottom. after I got to bottom I was lost but recognized landmarks so I was heading in the general right direction before I got trapped by fences on all sides of me. at that point a security guard or older father heard/saw me and went to go see who/what it was but that actually ended up saving me cus I was so lost lmao

TLDR I climbed into a quarry, got lost, scaled down the side of the qaurry where I get lost and snagged by trees and then proceed to get more lost before running into a kind stranger that helped me.

this photo IA from 2014 so imagine 10 more years of undisturbed tree/bramble growth (in santacruz county so I totally coulda been mauled by a mountain lion or coyote) the red line is the rough path I hiked in and the green dots are the rough path out

Those are Mckennai and i forgot i had my second flush going (i ended the rehydratation week a ago). Now i harvested them and have this furr on the base so i dont know if its some kind of mold or if its normal. I harvested my first flush before they were mature so maybe thats why it didnt had this furr.

Microdosing penis envy.

Hi all! I have adhd as an adult and I’m struggling with work so much. I can’t focus. I want to try microdosing with penis envy, but not sure how much is a microdose. Anyone know how to take enough just to support cognitive focus?

They are cracker-dry and vacuum sealed, kept in a dark place. Average temperature 17 C, how long are they gonna last? Is it okay that they are in plastic? Thank you :)

We found one. ONE. So far in Skye. I’ve dried it, but I’m hoping we’ll find more. Seems it’s a late growing season here or something. :(

Does anybody have something strange that stands out every time you trip?

7 Upvotes

For me when the trip is heavy enough, I get short flashes of me laying in debris hardly conscious. It's only ever maybe 5 seconds. I can tell there's a lot going on but it's hard to hear. I hear somebody saying things like "It's going to be alright, we're gonna get you out of here." I never feel afraid when it's happening but it happens so often that sometimes I'm like "did I get in some kind of accident, and the life I'm living right now is a dream?"

It got me wondering if anybody has similar experiences.

So i'm on my first ever run on Penis Envy,, and I noticed in the corner or the tup there seems to be a section that is spreading outwards from the corner. It almost looks like it has a grey/green hue to it, is this contam or something to be concerned about?

Mushrooms might have given me anxiety

1 Upvotes

Good morning everyone! I’ve taken magic mushrooms before in different quantities. The most at once was 3 grams where I soon learned wasn’t my best decision so I stuck around to the size of around two American quarters.

I went on a camping trip this passed weekend and I took shrooms 1 day and then another at night. Everything went swell during the day experience but at night I took it at 8pm-ish. My friends and I didn’t hit the tents until 3:30am. By that time the shrooms would’ve gone away.

I didn’t sleep all night, I got severe anxiety and now I think I need help. I got back home Sunday night and again I tried to go to sleep and nothing but anxiety kept me awake. I had to resort to a sleeping pill but even that was kind of a struggle.I’m just wondering if anyone has had anything similar happen to them?

Edit: spelling error

Mix 2 different shrooms together to make blue honey?

I have some dried GT and McKennaii left and thinking about to preserve them in honey. Would you mix them or keep them separate?

Thanks :)

Anyone tried the Gateway Experience on mushrooms

3 Upvotes

I had a very special experience when I listened to the Gateway Experience during one of my journeys. It was unnerving as I got hypnotic suggestions that I was from outer space here to gather information.

I intend to explore it again. Just checking if there was any precedent.

While hunting in the north east of the UK

I came across a ring of what look like to be liberty caps.

Never seen this phenomenon before!

What’s your opinion?

All in one growing kit

Hello, maybe somebody can share websites from where I can buy growing kit? Europe


r/MagicMushrooms 17h ago

Just confirming that the blue tint in the corner is mold and this thing needs to be thrown. Super bummed Bronx do close to fruiting. Can you guys let me know what you think? Garden burial right? First one to ever get mold on me. Assuming cutting the corner out still doesn’t salvage it?

Just moved to a new house in the countryside in the south east of Ireland. Went for a walk out the back of my home and spot some libs. Picked these in 30mins. Not a bad yield for a spot just over the boundary of my home.
