I wondered if anybody could help. Anyone who lives in england. I have hunted for the fly agaric for years with no success. I have located many liberty cap fields, too many. But no fly agaric. Can anybody tell mke where i am going wrong? Or where to start. I have been to forests and the whole lot but found nothing. ANy help or experience would be grateful.
-------------------- God.......fly agarics rule. liberty caps are shit. kratom, i havent tried. And the rest.....

i live in the south east near tunbridge wells, and have only started looking for shrooms this season, and ive had the opposite problem to you, i cant find liberty caps anywhere yet the woods i walked had a quite few amantia muscaria, are you looking in pine woods? as far as i know amantia like to grow on pine needles and around bracken(hence the high amount in scandanavia), i have yet to see one growing in an oak forest. liberty caps however seem to be non existent, i even found a huge dung pile in a meadow the other day, with not one liberty cap growing round it!

I've not consciously looked for them this year (yet) but I plan on doing so. I found one at delamere forest a few years back (when I still thought that you had to eat the little white specs on the cap in order to trip). I'm particularly interested in balancing low doses of f.a with other stuff. I'll let you know if I find any 9and where).

Want to trade? I have amanitas growing on about 150 yards from my doorstep each year, but the farmers around here use more and more fertilizer which kills the liberty caps...

I find them every year without consciously looking for them. They're usually growing under decidious trees (they appear to prefer birch) in woods, by roads, in gardens...just keep looking, you'll stumble upon them one of these days!

What you talking about? Fly agarics are everywhere! All you need to find are birch trees, birch, birch, birch
There are plenty of birch trees all over the UK - and at least half of them have fly agarics
why do you want to take fly agarics anyway?? Libs are shit??? Fly agarics make you wake up in a pool of vomit.

Uhh amanitas don't mix well with other stuff when ingested, also they are mycorhizzal symbiotes (check my "Shamanic Use" or "A Word on Amanita Dosage" threads on Ethno).
