Psilocybe cubensis ID
    #10501455 - 06/13/09 08:35 PM (14 years, 9 months ago)

Well I have been lurking on the forums for some time, I bought the spores and shit to grow Psilocybe cubensis but I never got around to doing it. One day I said to myself, "screw this, let nature handle it and if it does then I'll see about going all sci-fi about it". So I went behind my house into a wooded area and sprayed the syringe of spores into a place. It's been about 2-3 weeks since i've done this, checking around the area I didn't find any mushrooms, but over the last week we've been getting Mad rain and I'm seeing them sprout up in my yard. They look like Psilocybe cubensis to me, but I'm an amateur and I don't want to rush headlong into something bad. So I was wondering if you could Id them. I live near the Appalachian Mountains in Virginia, USA. I took macro pictures of them. Don't really know how to do spore prints, or what gills or pores are.. or any of that other technical stuff. Thanks for any help.

Edit: I did not put the spores in cow dung, or any dung for that matter, I just strayed it near a tree trunk.

There is still some grass on some of them.
They smell sweet (taste, not surfer dude talk)

Specimen #1: Close up under the cap
Specimen #1: Close up of the cut stem
Specimen #1: Close up of the stem's texture
Specimen #1: Close up of the Cap
Note: I took the picture indoors and the white balance was off so the color is lighter than normal.
Specimens #1, #2, #3: Mash-up
These were all together, I cut the ends of the stems off, tried to cover every side of them. The black thing in the center of the cap is actually a hole.

Edit: I broke open a stem and found one larvae.

Thanks for the help in advance. If you need more information let me know.

first of all, never trust someone with 3 posts.  second of all, they MIGHT be cubes.  take a spore print.  to do so, cut the cap off as high up the stem as possible. put cap on a piece of foil.  spore print colour is one of the most important factors in identification.  it's an absolute must, as stated in the guidelines of an identification request.

And no, they aren't Psilocybe cubensis.

Can you guys identify what they are?

Note: I'm still taking the spore print, but evidently it takes time. YOU KILLED MY DREAMS BY TELLING ME IT WASN'T CUBES!

Now I wanna know what would have happened to me if I had ate it, Probably nothing but ya know I'm curious.


Edit again: Btw. I bought the spores from sporeworks, and it's Psilocybe cubensis strain b+.. if that that helps.. I keep remembering things that might help id it, even if it's not Psilocybe cubensis

More pics of different specimens
Actually pretty fun to hunt these

Specimen #4: .. I think this one is deadly.
stalky stem, has a white thingy around the stem where the veil lifted up.

Specimen #5: Under the Cap.

Specimen #5: Stem
Very flimsy stem.

Specimen #5: Top Of Cap

Very Dark underneath the cap and on the top of the cap, despite what my camera says.

I'm doing spore prints on both of these.

Good news is that I looked more closely around the place where I planted the spores, and I learned that my one of people I live with shits on the tree frequently.. It looks like they're budding in there.

specimen 1 is a Laccaria, spore print should be white.

spraying Psilocybe cubensis spores on the ground won't do shit.

Specimen #5 is Parasola.

What made you think any of the mushrooms you have there are Psilocybe cubensis?

dude, you've been registered for 10 days.  i'd ignore everything this guy says.....

and while they MORE THAN LIKELY aren't cubes, you'd hafta print em to completely rule it out; there's SO many diff types of cubes, all of which can mutate...i wouldn't hold my breath, but you never know.

actually it was VERY easy to look at those pics and say 100% they are not cubes or even active. Doesnt take a reputation on the shroomery to tell that. just knowledge of mushrooms.

I prefer someone with not many posts to rightfully say "These are NOT active" over some of the (fortunately rather rare) occasions where some n00b tells another n00b to chow down on those mushrooms, because they "look just like the ones I saw on the internets the other day".

Yep. I have learned enough in just a year to positively, absolutely, 200% say, those are not cubes in any remote fashion of a wildest dream.
