looks like everyone is finding nice things........:) i have a question...i got fresh mushrooms, the guy kept em in a ziploc bag sealed for three days...i got em and tried to dry them in a drawer and some got a white mould on them i immediately took the mouldy ones out but some with small mould pieces still remained... now i have almost dried them using a fan and putting them in a slightly open cubboard for the last two days... does any body know if it will effect the potency? they are not as blue as they were while in the packet.... thanks
o yeah.... is it possible to grow dried mushrooms by rehydrating them and using the cardboard method?
good luck to everyone!!!!!! peace

Beautiful finds mr extreme. Is tripping from weraroas different to subs?

potancy can vary some say they are not as strong i disagree each and every time the result has been a cross combination of kalidoscope/cartoon not just aemotional wavy trip

Sounds interesting, sounds great actually.
Do they taste as bad as other shrooms?

the trip from weraroas is fuking awesome and yea they taste as bad as normal shrooms and because of the way they grow tend to be rather dirty and bug filled.The trip is warm and fuzzy id say definitly different from subs and in my opinion your less likely to have a bad experience on them

After a few days of relentless rain and general shite weather, been some lovely finds, hehehe. :P
Central AK seems to be doing well for many species, yet still the right ones are rare. I'm finding a few odd Amanitas though, didn't expect any of those o.O

I was in Auckland for two weeks, and after a dry spell I couldn't NOT find actives everywhere I looked. THOUSANDS. EVERYWHERE.
I have it on good authority that since they've been harvesting Riverhead forest ferrociously, all the branches get mulched and spread throughout the ARC parks...piece of luck for Dorklanders.
People and friends keep asking me for maps/where to look.
My advice?
keep your eyes on the ground (oh, and bark/mulch gardens).
But Auckland, man, you'd have to be blind not to find them. On the shore, in the city, out west. I found about 4 patches in seperate areas in a couple of hours on the shore (taking my mum to hospitol, at least has a little ray of sunshine).
