Im in wellington central, found a couple small random patches of P. Sub but nothing decent apart from that. Ive been on some pretty lengthy walks around barky areas but haven't seem to have found anything substantial. has anyone had some good experience around this area? Id like to know when the best time to hunt is.. as of tonight its been raining here for about 2-3 days. Is it good to look the next day when its not raining or wait a bit?

Hey Guys,
I need your help on that one. I just moved to Raro, pretty gutted I was missing the season back home (Welly). I looked on the shroomery to see if there was anything growing here but I couldn't find any info. I asked the locals who never heard of shrooms on the island.
Anyway, Sunday I went for a walk and I ended up finding these.
I found them in a short grass where there are a lot of cow shit. At first I thought they could be liberty caps but they don't look like a nipple, they are bigger and the caps is too leathery to be liberty. The fact that the temperature hasn't dropped below 24 degrees yet makes me doubt about libertys.
What do you think this is?
I was so sure they were psylocibe (spore print, bruising) that I ate a couple of small ones. I am pretty sure that I felt something (I was already buzzing a bit on beer and weed so not 100% sure)
I found another kind that looks quite similar except for the stem that is reddish and never bruised.
The two different kind compared
And the two spore prints next to each others (the "good" one on the right, the "i'm-not-too-sure" one on the left)
Any ideas guys? What do you think?
Cheers,
--------------------

There's a certain infamous spot that last season you could expect to get 30+ nize sized mushies but now the whole area has been trampled into mud.

I havn't a suitable scale so I took 4 really small pins the other night, but not much happened. I'll try again next week with double the amount or so.
I've yet to find more than the one patch of subs. And I think I'm guilty of hitting it a bit hard, being a bit excited and that. Everywhere else seems covered in stropharia aurantiaca.

Recent looks around various spots in auckland are still producing mass amounts of subs I havnt picked for about a fortnight now and my reliable patches have almost replenished back to 100% also my homemade patch is just starting to sprout pins you couldnt ask for better weather this year is shaping up to be a boomer.

Found about 40 subs on my way home after work....the subs i've been finding grow in the dead undergrowth of the kiwifruit orchards (see the pics) Used to hit Hamilton alot about 3 years ago, in the many bark gardens.

Hey FrenchieWelli, any chance you want to part with one of your Pan. cyanescens spore prints? I am collecting spore prints of wild actives. A spore print of a Pan. cyan from the Cook Islands would be superbad.

Bugger, took a look at the P. Rhizomorphs I found the other day and put in the fridge, looked like they'd been eaten a little bit. Start peeling a couple of them open and there are tiny little maggot-like bugs writhing through them. Little fuckers were jumping too.
Chucked the whole lot.

Yeah I've noticed thats quite a common occurance with that strain best way is to use them in a tea just boil on a low heat and strain through some muslin cloth.

All of them? Surely two different strains there?

I have found my answers guys.
So the first one is psychoactive. As everyone said it is a Pan Cyanescens actually, in order to be more accurate, it seems to be a Pan. Tropicalis.
The second one however is inactive, LouiseLouise told me on another thread that it is a Pan Campanulatus, not poisonous but not active.
Cheers guys, good luck to all of you for the season.

Hey there,
Fnding loads all over Auckland lately, but not as many in one spot as today.
Hundreds of them, in a nice untouched spot on the north shore. Some of the caps the size of the palm of my hand.
Very healthy season this year, even with a lack of rain this week...
