Need Help Identifying a Couple Shrooms ASAP - Want to eat tomorrow - Please Help
    #8596297 - 07/04/08 11:51 PM (4 months, 29 days ago)

I was directed to this forum from the general mushroom forum and told to make a spore print of said shrooms currently in my possession in order to have the best chance of getting them identified, the problem is the shrooms are completely dried out. I personally didnt pick them, I received a bag of mostly PSILOCYBE CUBENSIS (6g) and then mixed in was about (2g) of this brown capped shroom. So here it goes.. all the information I know:

Habitat: they were picked 30-40 miles south of Dallas, Tx in a cow pasture

Gills: the stem is not attached but the gills appear to be free and they are all dark brown

Cap: 2.2in diameter; completely brown, a little lighter in the center and gets darker towards the sides; there are white scratches amidst the brown color as if a finger nail scratched it, the edges of the cap have more white scuffs/scratched then the center; the cap is wrinkled but feels smooth with a minimal fuzz like feel

Where the stem was attached to the cap, the color is a subtle yellow white with a tiny tiny amt of blueness.

Odor: not much odor

Please let me know what you can tell me based on this information, or if there is a way to get a spore print from a completely dried shroom.

My friend has had bags of PSILOCYBE CUBENSIS in the past with these same brown types mixed in and everyone still had a smooth trip, but I just want to make sure if possible. Thanks in advance for your time.

Im planning on consuming the good ones I have tomorrow, so if you could get back to me asap, it would be much appreciated cuz the extra 2g's would be nice to have.

probably too far gone for id i would hope that some bastard wouldn't weigh down his bags with some unknown variety. To tell you the truth while drying my own they don't all turn out perfect i have alot that look this way but i only use a fan and screen to dry so, good idea being precocious.:cheers:

i vote no.

those dont look like gills. they look like a large almost foamy, airy whiteish one that i used to find in florida all the time, and the sun seemed to darken them when they were past their peak.

i cant get a bigger view of that picture.

think you can post a couple more?

but my vote is dont eat them. at least not till someone with more knowledge comes by and varifies things.

Those don't look like the ones that I have eaten dried.

Good thing you posted.  The person that gave them to you may have not known the difference.  Probably best to be safe rather than sorry.  I know thats dissapointing but if you have some cubes then all will be good.

It can make you sick if you do eat shrooms that are edible or active that are too old, they can harbor bacteria that can make you sick dude.

Yea, I hear ya. I used to go out picking all the time when I lived in Houston, but I moved to Dallas for school and have yet to find any growth in local pastures... been out in ideal condtions 5 or so times now.

Bummer man... I convinced my 56 yr old dad to do these with me tomorrow, and he has never done anything remotely like this, now I dont think I have enough for a good experience.

The pictured mushrooms could be cubensis.  They have the correct color gills.  But some toxic mushrooms also have that color gills.

If there is any blue staining then they are the right ones.  I think I can see some blue in the pictures but they aren't very clear.


I'd be wary of any ones that look kind of different.  Any ones that do not have blue on them or have different color gills should be tossed.
