 South Australia 2009 inactives 
#10230132 - 04/25/09 05:48 AM (6 months, 24 days ago) |
|
|
South Australia Finally had the heavens open up.  It certainly was a very dry spell over the last few months 
Since Thursday lunch time and as I write this thread Adelaide has had at least 60mils and even more in the Hills. It is still to early for actives but I'm confident by at least next week the season will begin. Ive dug around in small parts of a garden and the top inch is very wet but underneath is as dry as a bone.
I would expect people to have gone out already. Hell they might even shock me if they found some actives.
Enjoy the season hunters I know I will Cant Bloody well wait

Looks like it may be some form of gGymnopilus, as they look fairly similar to that, it looks like a rather large mushroom, and grow on stumps and tree bases, but I could be wrong.
Nice to see some people out looking already.

There are no actives as of yet. I went out this morning for a nice walk in which it was but there was no activity at all besides the beginning of the flourishing Fly Agaric As I stated above I believe in about 1 week definitely 2 weeks the active season will begin.

Only active species do that. It looks more green because gyms are yellow.

That means its probably inactive.

yep long time lurker here as well, been waiting at least 6 months for my chance to finally try my luck at scouting.
Anyone got any basic tips, all i know so far is the weather details and to look in the pine Forrest and to look for ones that bruise blue (although that doesn't mean they are safe or active). I'm pretty sure I'm going to go out and come back with a shoebox filled with utter crap ha ha.
Anyone one willing to show me the ropes (without showing me their secret spots).

Hi guys,
I'm also in Adelaide and interested in looking at active mushrooms. I'll be following this thread closely.
Hopefully I'll be able to post pics of my own finds!

Come on, they be out there by now. Seen a whole heap of gyms fruiting off a stump that has fruited plenty of gyms before, and a few field mushies coming up but not many. Not gone looking for actives yet.

Yep sure are mushie patrol, checked a spot that has been pretty faithful over the years in terms of popping up shrooms in early may and viola, there they were:
  
Can't believe how overgrown this place is getting, good to see some areas were mowed back a bit, but no shrooms there yet. Not surprised at kuitpo considering the weather conditions its had over the past few weeks.

Hey guys I'm going to be walking the whole Heysen Trail this winter starting from the South... so that means I'll be spending about 3 weeks in the mushie zone  let's see who gets the most shrooms this year :P
let's see, 9 hours times 21 = 189 hours of hunting! hehehe
I'll be leaving in July so I'm hoping there will still be plenty around by then.

Well I reckon i am going to go down kuitpo monday. Never been but think
Im thinking im going to check out the red boxed area (Blackfellows creek). Maybe walk a bit of the tingella trail. Do you reckon this is the right kind of area?
Also do you reckon its a bad idea to bring a dog? I thought my dog may like a wander, and she will keep me company, cause at the moment im going solo? Bad idea?
Sorry for all my stupid questions...

Anyone ever try them goldfields? One looks particularly like a good spot.
Dogs are ok, bring a leash possibly though, don't want to attract attention if you're in a spot that needs a leash and you don't have your dog on one. Won't be able to take a dog in the conservation park either.

They look exactly the same as this dudes, they look the same when they are developing, purple looking spore print, they bruise blue and are found in clusters.
Obviously you are far more experienced than me, so i appreciate the help could you please help me by telling me whats wrong about them, so i know how to better identify them in the future?
I spent ages going through photos of cubes, and while a lot of them dont resemble the ones i posted, some of them do. Certainly a few from this site even.
Im looking forward to learning more about mycology in general, so please be detailed in your reply.
thanks

I believe these are psilocybe cubensis, I have 3 locations where i can find these, but up till just now i never knew they wee any good.
Im newb, but from what i can tell these are either the real thing or a lookalike.
I will get some samples tomorrow, for spore printing. Heres a pic of them at one location.
Those are Parasola auricoma. They do not look like cubensis.

Thanks Alan. I went back to what i thought was the random patch growing. (and its growing UNDER a bush that yo have to move to get to them, and they were gone. No pins, just little holes in the ground. Theres was 2 dead black ones. I guess someone else though they were good too, or they were someones guerrilla plantation, and they noticed my boot print and that i had left a mature one i picked there, to drop spores and hopefully something will come of it..anyways im not too fussed lol..if it was someone from heres place, and they recognised it sorry, i didnt know. And Alan's ID looks remarkably like it..(although so do the others i saw, and the bruising looks blue - purple..not black but not like baby blue either..its darker blue.
Anyways, heres todays pics:
                 
Ive been out and about today...Im not going to say anything regarding what they are, Ill let you guys id them if you choose.

looks like you got some stropharia (?species?) there prot3eus1, pics in the second, third and fourth row, the red capped ones. None of them are active though, but it looks like you're looking in the right habitat.

Cool thanks Trixxy. Noted that down..now i can id that type at least. Purple / brown spore print on those ones too so i think this looks pretty close:
hypholoma aurantiaca - (apparently it was moved from stropharia to hypholoma)
They report that these grow on wood chips, appear shiny when moist, have a purple brown spore print.
Its also said that these ARE active, however along with psilocybin there is other toxins that give you the runs. They are in the bin, I have the pics of them and i happy to wait till i find something better rather than trip and crap myself and feel shitty for a few days lol.
Lots more rain today, so see how things look tomorrow.

So many names for the same thing :P.
Tomorrow I have a few ideas for places to look.  dont really mind if i find actives or just inactives, im not 100% sure i want to trip yet. Curiosity is there, and i think i have a bit of a mycology calling seeing as how interested i am in just finding all kinds of mushies...I mean its amazing how many different kinds ive found in less than a week.

Going searching in a spot I've never tried tomorrow for some subs. Have several areas I'd like to check - some pine forest, some native plantation. I've only ever found them actives in native plantation before - is it worth chhecking the pine forest or will I find different little friends there?

WOOOOOT, Shroom season has begun =D
lol i love how me trixxy and ummagumma were the only ones on this thread until the subs started popping up.
but yer, that guy talking about cubensis.... adelaide grows cubensis???
if so FUCK. are they better???, i know there more potent but???? whats the deal??
about to go for a hunt, finally gonna take my camera this time, will have sum very nice photo's too post tonight =D
found a massive bunch of subs a few days ago, waiting for them to mature and drop their spores before i pick them though.... hopefully they will be ready by now =DDDDDDDDD
Oh and a quick tip to those people who dont know how to hunt.
DO NOT pick up the shrooms, cut them near the stem.
DO NOT pick baby ( bullets ), have some respect dont be greedy, wait until they are mature and have opened up to release spores.
Sorry about the lecture, my old spot got raided a few years back by sum fucking idiots, and i havent had subs grow from there in 3 years.
il post pics of my adventure tonight =D

I went out with a mate today, and found the beginnings of a good season.
Went south, which was a change for us, and found a whole lot of actives, blue bruising and all, had them IDed by an experienced person.
Ate the first one straight, mushed with our teeth then swallowed..wasnt too bad..very earthy...
Second put on a sandwich with spaghetti bolognase, which was horrible, the texture was bad..better to get it over with in one swallow.
I had only one visual, i had a lollipop i had bought in hahndorf and it looked normal chuppa chup size. But when i unwrapped it it seemed so small...like it wasnt even worth putting in my mouth...it looked small but i had a feeling that it was even smaller than it looked lol.
Pleasant surprise when i put it in my mouth and it filled it normally lol...
Very cool, not scary at all, coming down i got a few small waves of nausea but nothing like i was gonna throw up..just small feelings of nausea.
Next time I will have a bit more, very very cool though. Pics attached. Anyone know what the cluster of shrooms is? just curious, found a heap of actives, not interested in eating just want to know what those ones were.
Took about 30 mushies all up, some bigger than others. Left a whole lot. Will definitely be going back out in the coming weeks, as I would like to dry some out. All in all, happy hunting peoples!

Plenty of them around (amanita muscaria), almost hard not to find them in a pine forest.
Think there's a way to prepare them properly so you don't get too sick either, but i'm not sure of that method.

Went searching in a few areas in the hills and shepherds hill conservation park on Saturday morning, found a few inactives:
 
 
No idea what any of them are but the first large one smelt delicious!

Went to an area in kersbrook, found 8 subs but they were all still bullets, and a few hadnt even dropped their veil, so I left them.
I still had some left from last time anyways lol so all is ok.
My friend and I are planning a trip next week wednesday, gonna try a few new spots that might be fruiting.

Iron_man...ur positive they were liberty caps? any pics? the red and white dotted ones are fly agaric or amantia muscaria most probably, they are all over in pine forests and such now, they have a different active ingredient in them than psilocybin, and as such most people go more for subs and the like.
A lot of places that fruit have subs growing, just not at peak fruiting yet.
Look forward to your pics

Going for my first hunt tomorrow, not expecting much but it should be fun.
It would be good to go out with some experienced hunters to learn the ropes.

Went out to kersbrook mt crawford forest today, one of the horse trails (pine plantation with gum tree areas also).
Saw some of the orange ones with the honeycomb gills (sorry not 100% on terminology yet).
Saw some other varieties that i hadnt seen before...nothing active i dont think and i forgot my camera...
Next active hunt is this weekend, going to a known location. then trying a new or a few new ones on wednesday (next week not tomorrow).
good stuff....lol ended up forgetting the rail i entered on and walking for 3 hours to get back to the road :P...good times lol

went out today, took only the large ones, took only about 1/4 of what was there, caps alone - 500 grams.
We went about 100m along and then we decided it was pointless continuing, we already had too many...so we had some coffee...was cool lol.
Ill do pics of my share drying tomorrow if anyone doubts...

I went to a spot next to my house and there was about 50 Jims growing. And also, I found a jim that was about 50 cm wide. It was huge.
How do you tell what Jims are active?

I've had no luck in finding magic ones. But plenty of different ones.
I've run out of places to look to find osme. I was looking forward to getting some shroom so much
Just wondering if anyones even having any luck with them. Magic ones, that is.
Or is it just me with the bad luck?

Hey Iron_man you can never run out of places because SA is pretty huge! You're kinda in the same boat as the people in WA cos there really hasn't been much rain so far this year. If I were you I'd go out hunting in the next few days after all this rain is done.

I agree with Mushie Patrol so much! When I don't find any mushrooms i don't really mind because just the scenery, the fitness and the social-ness of going hunting is so much fun!
It makes me feel like a little kid exploring the woods again.
And its always good to bring my camera to take photos of things.

Wierd, you guys eat 3 mushrooms and are high as kites!
I had 4 mushies yesterday and was pretty stoned, but certainly no hallucinations or anything. Had a bit of a laughing fit over lunch but all in all I reckon I was wasted for maybe an hour tops.
Maybe Ill try drying them out next time, ive been eating them fresh thinking that they are more potent that way.
Ill have 6 on my next go

well its not about quantity my friend... like wow you can eat 3 and not be fucked... con fucking gragulations.
fresh shrooms are the best way to have em... in my opinion....
its just you either picked them too small or maybe the potency is a little weak.
sorry... its just your being a toy.... get over yourself.
6 is nothing...
try 320 in a weekend split between 2 people.
got beat..... got done.... got outplayed =D
BOOOOM!

umm... sorry I gave you the wrong impression Mushie. I wasnt trying to show that Im better than anyone because I am going to try eating more than you.
Im just disappointed that Im not getting the results I had expected.
Grats on your...boooom!

hahahaha yer sorry about that.
lol taking my anger of my favourite patch being raided out on you.
but yer... ive found that shrooms can vary in potency by a tonne.
best advice would be to have maybe 5, re-assess after an hour or so then eat more if need be.
i am yet to discover the reason why they vary, wether its habitat, sunlight, temperature or nutrients.
its just a game of trial and error, everyones different, ive had maybe like 20-30 trips and i wouldnt say i've seen many visuals at all.
but try not to smoke too much weed too early.
if ya hit the bud at its peak..... my god is it amazing.
no matter how much you smoke you only get higher... no getting fucked and passing out.... its amazing. well... for me it was.
soz about being a cunt, i appreciate the apology... even though im fair sure i was in the wrong =D
goodluck on your next trip =D
oh and shroom tea works amazing.
just boil a bunch of mushies in water. Maybe break the mushies up a little to increase the SA:V. then after maybe an hour, remove the mushies.... cool the water and play drinking games with mushie tea =D
its alot easier and nicer to eat em that way =D
anyway, back to the latest news.... someone raided my spot.... no bullets or anything.... why does nobody have manners.

Im glad it only takes me 3 shrooms to get so high, because that means i can have more trips, or get higher in general. But then again, it was my first trip so i was expecting to be a light weight.
Hey Mushi, we should go for a hunt some time.

i have only ever had them freshish. They were half dry.
I also want to know if having them in a powder form is good.
And lastly, how long does it take to dry out the shrooms if i am drying them on news paper so that they are dry enough to make into a powder?

its all good mushie.
I might try the tea, i wasnt looking forward to downing 6 of them raw, that taste gets a bit much after the first couple.
Thanks for the advice on weed too, i was planning to smoke some after about an hour if i didnt get much result but ill wait for that really nice stoned feeling from the mushies first.
As for someone raiding your spot. I guess there may be a few of us that are going to spots that long timers have kept secret. I hope Im not jumping in someones 'territory'. But at the same time, they spawn pretty quick dont they? I just hope there are enough to go around for everyone

Seen bugger all shrooms when we saw you the other day mushie patrol, but the spots looked pretty well worn anyway, hell lotta tracks going round. Been dry as too, north wind dries the crap out of everything quick.

Personally I've found you get the most visuals from a tea. And usually the easiest to down because you can mix it with tea/coffee/milo.
I don't mind eating them fresh though, they don't taste too bad, mind over matter I reckon.
Powder is easy as well, again a tea or coffee. And this way if you keep them stored properly, you can hang on to them for years.

Went out again today ready for the weekend. We went to the new spot we found and Im sure its a haunt for someone as there are very light tracks around and even a few ribbons here and there.
I took about 15 mushies which is enough for me for the weekend and I can go back and get more next week. Left plenty of small ones for the 'regulars' there if they go back on the weekend.
I have about half a dozen dried now, so Ill chop them up in the herb grinder and make tea with them. the others Ill eat raw.
Is that right? The dry ones grind up and boil in a couple of cups of water for about half hour?
Thanks folks, my partner and I (she comes hunting but doenst partake) are getting the hang of this, took us about 20 minutes to find all I needed yay!

Haemaglobin, you do not want to boil your mushrooms as this will destroy the psilocybin and render them useless. Grind your mushrooms up as fine as you can get em. Boil the kettle. Let it stand for 5 mins before using the water. What I do is make a pot of tea (Jasmine has been the preference lately), and then just stir the powdered goodness in. Try and agitate and stir it around a fair bit to get all the goodness out. Enjoy.

I made a tea saturday about lunchtime. I didnt read this first, so my first tea was made with about 6 small dried mushrooms and 2 fresh ones, all mushed up, boiled the water with the mushrooms in it and then when it cooled I strained it and drank. Nice hit, very quick (started coming on after about 10 minutes as opposed to half hour or more when I ate them).
Then I came in and saw the message from dltwofold. So I made another batch of tea at about 6pm. I was pretty high at this point.
The second batch I used about 6 fresh mushrooms to two cups of water, cut them up as fine as I could, boiled the water and after boiling put the shrooms in and let it sit for about half hour. Then I strained it and microwaved it to warm it, one spoon of sugar and one of coffee, milk and drank. LOL tasted like coffee with mushrooms in it
But it came on VERY strong very quickly. I was W.A.S.T.E.D and giggling like a schoolgirl.
Thanks for the tips guys! Still no hallucimatations, but I like the trip anyway.
Would love to join some of the more experienced hunters here one day on a gathering trip. I am very keen to learn more about the other fungii that we see growing when we go out. Im not working atm, so time isnt an issue (yay!)

Seems like everyone's keen for a hunt hey.
Im keen as well. But the only thing is, is there is like 6 of us, and we find a spot with lets say 60 mushrooms, thats 10 each. Its not bad just not as many as small groups.
Although it would be great to get to know all the members on shroomery.

Those ones I see all over the place. They are found in bunches and more often around wood.
We have got them mixed up a couple of times, the difference is:
The stems are woodier, the lids dont look as good as the subs and they dont get that slight bluing around the edge of the top, the gills underneath are brown rather than cream and they dont go blue.
You will know subs when you see them, they are pretty obvious. I generally find them in 2's or 3's and spread out a bit more. They have a definite nipple on top, the edge of the top is usually tinged in blue like eyeliner, the stem is cream and will obviously blue, even if you cut it and the gills are cream.
Good luck

Hey Guys, first post!
Been reading through here for the last couple of weeks, sure have learnt a lot! I'm finally finished with uni exams and am very keen to get out there and start hunting!
Found what i think is a sub walking home today, looks identical to the ones I've seen on here and was very blue on the stem!
Anyway, will go for a big hunt tomorrow if weather permits and report back
Great forum btw!

Should go for a hunt this weekend hopefully.

Went for a bit of a hunt today, down Scotts Creek way.
Found a few mushrooms, nothing active i dont think
Found these as soon as i got out of the car, unsure of ID tho:
Interesting coral kind of mushroom, lions mane?
And hundreds of these, which got my hopes up every time
Habitat shot
Will go back out tomorrow!

We went to Watts Gully. Not a huge spot but there is a small area where we regularly find about a dozen mushrooms or so...enough for me
Here are some pics as promised, Ive got more of inactive mushrooms and area shots, but Ill only post these unless others want to see what inactives are in the area.
First up, 2 older subs here, I dont usually pick them this age. Can you see them? lol
what about now?
here is one of them up close
next up here is a single sub about mid aged. lovely
and closer
A couple of shots of nice young ones.
and
This is a strange purple one, never seen it before but we saw 4 examples of it today, very slimy kind of mushroom, purple all over it. im doing a spore print now.
again, no idea what these are, but I like this photo
and lastly, a shot of the area, the creek is running nicely with all this rain
Ive reduced these images, I hate doing it but for the sake of bandwidth...

nice photo's haemaglobin.
Ive also found those purple ones you were having trouble ID'ing.
I did a spore print of mine, the spores were yellow.
havent gotten around to posting my pics on shroomery yet for an id.
let me know if your prints turn out the same =D

I left it overnight for the spore print.
It came out orange/light brown. Certainly not yellow.

I found a nice little sub and ate the thing thinking it couldn't possibly affect me too much. About 20mins later I was tripping and didn't even want to hunt anymore! lol So now I'm back home and still feeling it. I might go out later this arvo or I'll have to leave it till tomorrow. hehe

lol awesome. I just realised i didnt dry my shrooms out enough, a couple of the older ones started to go mouldy so I had to throw them out, so Ive crumbed up the others and will consume them all today yay.

hey guys I found about 200-300 subs today. but I was only able to pick 80 of them coz the position was quite exposed. The thing is I'm not sure if they are subs or some other type of psilocybe. The stem is more a browny red colour with only the top couple of centimeters being whitish. The shrooms all bruise blue on the mycelium, gills, stem, and cap. Some stems were completely blue. The thing is that they don't really look like the subs in any of the photos I've seen on here.
Also how effective is air drying these things without a fan? I've just got them all laid out on the table but I've got no fan.
I was thinking that if there were any helpful shroomies out there with a fan I might be able to organise a trade with you... subs for fan lol I'd hate these to go to waste.
What are the other possible psilocybe species in South Australia?
thanks

They are P.subaeruginosa durantz, I have picked aucklandii and they are not it. I have pics somewhere if you want a comparison.? I am glad that you found some actives

none of them have a nipple on the top though and they are not really golden, more a dull brown... I found a sub earlier today and these ones looked nothing like it...
here is a shot of them all together, don't tell me they are subs. lol

I know it's not an aucklandii 
Not all subs have a nipple on top and the colours of the ones above suggest that they have been exposed to the elements for a while.
P.aucklandii picture taken last year, 140km North of Auckland.
The cap is the giveaway for these guys:

well some of the ones I found look exactly like those photos.
And I thought that the caps of older subs turned upwards, none of these ones did, they were all facing downwards.
I'm telling you man these look nothing like the subs in any photo I've seen on this forum. Stems are not even white!

Not all of them turn upwards either, they vary so much. The ones that I have found recently are twice the size of what I usually find and their stems are quite brown, opposed to white. Maybe where you found them there has been alot of rain, staining them?
The pics you posted of the single one says sub to me. Have you any pictures of others?
Really though, take prints if think they are of any scientific value.

I trust you man, I just didn't think they looked like the average sub.
I've just made a tea out of three decent sized ones. They have all turned very blue in the water. Not sure if three is a lot but I'm in a good mood so it should be fun. I'll let you know how it goes.

Tea is my preferred method too. You should get a buzz out of three and a good way to gauge their strength. I hope it goes well

the ones in the individual photos are definitely subs, they vary so much with age, its not funny, that shot with them all together, hard to say what they are but they could well all be actives, but ive never seen anything growing like that before thats nuts, should pm your hunting spot cos that looks choice.

yeah they are all active. And all of them are the same species so if you're all saying they are subs then they must be.
I don't really want to give this spot away cos it looks like noone has ever been there, I left a lot behind to make sure that it doesn't get ruined. So hopefully if I ever find myself in South Australia for the winter I'll have some shrooms to come back to. All up I picked 130 and there was at least that many left behind.

Don't give your spot away. You came from another state and found your own,what's stopping other people from doing the same?
The only way you get good at hunting them is to research,research,research.Then get out and look and look and look...When you do find them, study them and you will learn even more...

I've been studying habitat photos here, where we were looking looked similar to some I've seen here in the last few weeks. My buddy knows what to look for, but I'm a complete noob. I'm enjoying the exercise but I thought I'd at least something that wasn't brown.
Durantz - what do you mean by level 3? Excuse my ignorance but I have never experienced mushrooms or anything similar, just LSD.

Don't get me wrong I got spots around the place, close to home, and enjoy the hunt/search more than anything else nowadays, but you got well lucky, cos that place looks pretty damn unreal, I've not seen anything like that, hence the curiosity.
good to see you know how to take care of a patch too.

Hey man, sorry for the late reply.
I lost 5 to mould, had 16 left which I dried properly(by putting the oven on lowest heat and putting them on a tray in there with the door open an inch or so).
I then ground them up to a fine powder and just ate a teaspoon full with a drink handy. Had 2 teaspoons but not a whole lot of effect.
Funnily enough, the next day (yesterday) I had 2 teaspoons of the crumbs left, I boiled a pot of water and let them soak in it then put fresh lemon juice, honey and the whole mushie mix (crumbs and all) into a cup and drank it. Its probably the best way Ive had of taking it yet and I was on a pretty nice trip the whole day. I kept topping it up with a smoke now and again.
Started some pretty nice artwork, which Ill have to get around to finishing
I think I read somewhere that having it with lemon juice can make the psilocybin react better, thats why I tried it...seemed to do the trick

Hey settle down Karode13
Well it seems like your treating SOME of us SA's like Armatures 
some of us shroomerites here (like ME) have been Hunting here in SA for half of our lives. Ive helped many people here in SA with finding Gold
People like Trixxy have great respect for habitats and actually leave the mushrooms alone once he has taken some photos.
I feel there is NOTHING wrong with sharing locations to the right peoples

Well ummagumma,you obviously took what I wrote out of context. Durantz and myself know each other privately and I was just happy that he had found some as he has not been so lucky. You are not allowed to ask for spots anyways,read the rules.
I know people from SA aren't noobs, just seems alot posting this year.I have been on these boards for a while and have seen what your state can produce.
I also share locations with the right people...As for telling me to settle down

Well seeing as this is the only shroom spot I know of so far I just wanted to keep it to myself. I just don't want the spot to get ruined.
I just think about how people destroy everything, seems like they can't help doing it.
And funny how I asked for some help with getting a fan from someone in Adelaide but noone offered to help. Now you want to know where the spot is...

I am not lost at all. Sorry for being in an exclusive thread. I didn't realize you could be so touchy.....You are welcome to post in the Melbourne thread. As for the fight thing, grow up. I don't come on these boards to cause trouble, ummagumma and myself have resolved our differences and I look forward to making him feel at home when he comes to Melbourne...Maybe one day I can do the same for you. I didn't mean to disrespect anyone, I was actually responding to durantz and nobody else.

Durantz, you dont need a fan, just an oven mate. put it on its lowest setting put the mushrooms in and leave the door open an inch or so and they will dry nicely...unless you are impatient like me then you take them out too early and after a few days they start to go mouldy
Went to my normal spot today but it was farmed out, bugger. Might go again tomorrow and see if there are any that have sprouted overnight, Im interested to see how quickly they spawn anyway.
Does anyone here have much success in the many pine forests around? Seen many shrooms in them but none of the subs I know are active.

I went for a hunt today, got about 100 subs. But none in the pine forests. I have never found them in pine forests except for one location.
The rest have been in eucalyptus.

You sir are a dick and obviously know nothing. I have read some of your posts towards other members and you never have much positive to contribute. It figures when you use words like "drill". I am OVER the matter and so is ummagumma, ask him if you know him.
To the rest of South Australia, sorry for causing this shit storm.

I have found ONE sub in a pine forest. I know in the old days friends used to always go to the pine forests, so they must grow there.
I wonder if there are just heaps of people that look there first.
Does anyone know exactly how subs propagate? is it via a bulb, root, spore or a mix of all? obviously they have spores, but is that thier main method of reproduction?
Is there a possibility they are being farmed out? But if they reproduce via spore (in the millions I would assume) then how is this possible? but if thats the case, then when I leave an old one behind, why isnt there a whole heap of them there next time I come back?
LOL.
Be happy guys, life is too short to argue about it.

mushroom spores are the "seed" of fungi. mycelium the "plant". mushrooms are the "flower". general and very rough outline. can be propogated via mycelium and spores. they serve the purpose of cleaning up natures mess, guess so many spores doesnt equal so many mushrooms because of survival of the fittest/competition, but maybe spores can lie dormant for a number of years in the soil(?).
Havent found many inside a pine forest, but subs love to break down dead rotted down pine.

yeah all my parents hippy friends would always talk about the good old days of the magical mushroom enchanted pine forests, trip this awe struck that, found one over hear, don't no how we drove home. those type of stories
also just the other week a couple of my friends went out to this annual mushroom get together near kuipto forest and they said that they had found a couple of bucket fulls or so.
so in conclusion i would have to say, there are active mushies out there
peace.

Well, Ive been looking around a bit on the web. Cheers for the info guys.
It really seems that they should be growing quite well in pine forests as well as eucalypt. I have noticed each time Ive been to the pine forest that there are always evidence of mushrooms being tampered with (turned over and stuff) so Im suspecting that there are just lots of people that go to pine forests to find them.
I know when I started looking the first place I went was pine forests and I know that people Ive chatted to that used to spend a lot of time hunting them all went to pine forests.
So, thats my theory. Pine forests are good, they are just farmed out
I might spend a bit of time going deep into a pine forest and seeing if that produces better results.

I've definitely seen them in pine forest, weren't as prolific as amongst the eucalypts across the road though (Mt Crawford way - dead fox...)
Anyone know of any in the <snip>

All I did was come into the SA thread to comment on someones finds, a positive comment...someone had a go at me for something,that was resolved. Then ol' Mushie-troll jumps on my back because he is a troll and doesn't contribute(can't even take a photo properly,look at his avatar-LOL).And to top it off has only been here for what-half a season? I have been here for a few years and try to contribute positively when I can,look in the Melbourne 09 and previous New Zealand threads...........I too regret posting in this thread and wont waste my time again.

Hey welcome!
It seems that the best luck is predominately in eucalypt forest areas. So maybe keep an eye out for areas like that and see how you go.

hey dudes there has been a fuck load of rain in the last few days! I should know cos I've been walking through it. lol
Anyways I went through deep creek conservation park and found a couple of shrooms on the side of the heysen trail about 500 metres west from the Eagle Water Hole campsite. I ate those and had a bit of an unpleasant trip, felt like some demon was trying to drill into my brain. I think it had something to do with the crazy storm raging all around me.
The point of the story is that there are shrooms in that area, i bet if someone went and did a good search they would find plenty. Tomorrow I'm going into Inman valley so I'll let you know if I find anything there.

Hey Stacj, I live kinda near there! There's heaps of those look-alike shrooms - but some subs there are small, orangish gills, stain blue around the cap margin and a bit on the stalk sometimes with a purple spore print as well - immature subs? I found some there yesterday, ate 8 but had only negligible effect... but eventually found one classic sub, 6cm cap, which I ate this evening and tripped balls! Once again it had a lemony flavour - is this a Belair thing??
The only place where I found subs seems to have petered out now, damn it, unless all this rain will harbinger another flush...
I also found a deadly gal. right where the patch is - a really convincing imposter - 'shall post a pic tomorrow... good luck hunting, they have to be in there somewhere! Otherwise it's good exercise

You ate the wrong mushroom. In the future post an ID request with clear pictures if you aren't 100% sure.

I found some there yesterday, ate 8 but had only negligible effect... but eventually found one classic sub, 6cm cap, which I ate this evening and tripped balls! Once again it had a lemony flavour - is this a Belair thing??
You ate the wrong mushroom. In the future post an ID request with clear pictures if you aren't 100% sure.
Sorry dude, am figuring out the pics thing; I have a pic, was getting dark, the blueing increased with time - on the cap & cap margin, the gills & stalks...

At least one of those is Psilocybe subaeruginosa, but the others I am not so sure about. The mushroom on the right in the pic on the left appears to have a stem that is far too dark. Its hard to tell if pic # 2 is Leratiomyces ceres or Psilocybe subaeruginosa. Make sure they stain blue and have purple-brown spore prints and you won't have any problems.

The left image contains the mushrooms I talked about, they were a little weather damaged, the one on the right looks suss; as it's stalk is kinda dark, but it kept on blueing as did all in the picture and the other 4 I picked. As mentioned, the spore print was purple... I await your diagnosis dear chap...
The image on the right is a galerina? It's the one I referred to growing in a proved sub patch, rusty orange spore print, stalk became more orange with time & not a hint of blue at all.

G'day all. I am relatively new to mushroom hunting and have been following this thread for a while. Never taken shrooms, I just like to photograph the different mushrooms that I come across.
Recently when walking through a paddock between Mt Pleasant and Springton, I found some curious looking mushroom that I thought was a kind of panaeolus. I was wondering if anyone could help me ID them.
Unfortunately I was in a hurry that day and forgot to grab a specimen to measure and make a print of, so information is rather limited.
Habitat: Densely wooded patch of self seeded natives, the mushrooms themselves growing in cow dung.
Gills: charcoal coloured.
Stem: Fawn/pinkish brown.
Cap: Fawn becoming more golden brown towards the top.
Spore print color: N/A.
Bruising: No color change was observed.
Location: Edge of Eden Valley
Here are some rough photos the mushrooms in question.

Crudbag, I'd call that Panaeolus papilionaceus but it is clearly a different species than the P. papilionaceus that we have here in the usa.
The cap color is different, and less smooth. And the veil remnants are not as triangular as our material.
Somewhere in the world I think there is an active strain, you could eat that and see if it is active. Probably not though, but its for sure not toxic.
Nice clear pictures, please keep them coming.
