Found a nice flush of Chanterelles yesterday.  Got a bag full or two.  There was a light drizzle yesterday, but hopefully it will rain here nice and solid.

Golden Gate Park, San Francisco this morning,

near a regular cyan patch. I've seen this once before about 6 years ago, maybe half mile away. Sent a photo to Stamets and he couldn't figure it out. Could be just a long stem friscosa, could be something Azure like...there's certainly more bluing than friscosas...I'll keep them separated in case Alan wants to do a scope

They look like friscosas to me.  Grass will cause the stems to elongate.

I'll check it out under the scope anyway though.

Yeah, I know. I've seen elongated friscosas in regular chips too, but the caps seemed a little thinner than most friscosas

this is the one from 2002 in GGP


Stamets almost published this in his book. still have the email. This ones is from today



the old 2002 photo is from my old 3mp sony and I'm starting to notice it still takes better photos than my new panasonic 8mp camera...does it look that way?. I still have the old sony too, but it's heavy

anyway, 2002 was the first time I noticed this new 'friscosa'...this was before most people knew about it, and before this Shroomery. Up until 2002, it was all regular cyans for many years, at least for me



you can see even here there's an odd cup shape, slightly more elongated than most short, squat friscosa you see today

ah yes, 2002 was a good year...those were the days




this is from today, a wavy friscosa

I know, like a neon sign.

I found one today that had a cap that was AT LEAST 12 inches across.

also, for Nightflyer over in Europe with our San Francisco strains. I forgot about this one from last year

not saying your cyans and friscosas will merge, it depends on how different they are...What's been going on in the San Francisco Bay Area for more than ten years, for multiple generations, is both these related species have literally been fucking with each other. Some don't like each other, but some do. ....and for those that do, it gets to the point where you can look at it and say, 'that's p cyanescens', but it sort of looks like they can't decide whether to become wavy or not




in situations like this, you can't exactly go by the book anymore..Standardized macro definitions no longer work, and most important, when it becomes this close together

microscopic definitions are impossible to seperate

most people here where it started around San Francisco are unaware of how close friscosa and p cyanscens are, despite being obviously different on the macroscopic level


you're only going to see this in a relatively small percentage of them....most friscosas and cyans are still separated, but many more are still closely associated by proximity, I.E, they literally revolve around each other within a few feet in various patches..that's what I call the 'sattelite' function...and I see that ALL THE TIME here around San Francisco

nobody, to this day, really knows, or has explained, why 'friscosas' appeared like they did 10 or so years ago

it's not a bad thing, it's just slighty weird

they're all still the same potency or better, but in some cases, they've lost their classic textbook definition shape
