whats up everyone...im new to the site, this is my first post. anyawy ill get strait to the point...a few buddies of mine got some relatives in west va in an area which obviously has tons of cowfields and were tryin to go do some mushie picking in the near future. but before this happens id like to learn more bout it so that nobody eats a poisonous mushroom or something of the sort. is there any tricks or anything in identifying mushrooms that grow off of cow turds? what do i need to learn about and everything before this happens? any information/assistance you guys could give me would be much appreciated. thanks y'all.
I wouldn't suggest going mushroom hunting on your own since you obviously know nothing about it. However, if you do not take my advice, look into identifying Psilocybe Caerulipes aka "blue foots" if you'll be in West Virginia. They grow on decaying wood generally near streams on hilly terrain from May-June I think.
well i know that most mushrooms that bruise blue have psilocin in them, so basically you can trip on them keep in mind some mushrooms that bruise blue are poisonous and dont contain any psilocin or psilocybin
hey man, dont just pick up a mushroom and eat it. it could kill you fast. there are some poisonous mushrooms that look exactly like psychedelic mushrooms, if you studied Mycology you could probably tell the difference. go on Amazon.com and check out some books on: mushroom hunting & mushroom identification seriously ALSO: http://www.shroomery.org/6235/Mushroom-Hunting-FAQ Here you can find tons of info on hunting mushrooms, and the Locations of Psychedelic mushrooms, that reside in the States, ect... its pretty cool This is a MUST if you are going mushroom hunting and know nothing about them.. im telling you, dont just pick up a mushroom and eat it, ever! :> if anything grab a bunch, even if you find different ones, take some pictures, and show the guys at shroomery.org, some of them specialize in mushroom identification. GL.. peace
I also happen to live in WV, and I can tell you there is no point whatsoever in going into a cowfield. We just don't have cubes here. You can try looking for Psilocybe Caerulipes, but good fucking luck. I've never found one. If you really want them that bad, the best thing to do is grow your own. It's much easier than you think.
