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 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!
ps first post!

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?

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.

Its still very dry out there the cold nights have finally set in. Trixxy is on the right road with regarding where to look when there has been minimal rain to begin the season which is long grasses

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

Well if they got white stems, have purple spore print, and bruise blue, they are magicka.

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.
