Cyanescen finds
    #6147419 - 10/08/06 06:55 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

Hola gang...

These pics were taken around the 20th of September.  It's the earliest I've ever found cyanescens and this patch was booming.  There were already overmature and rotting cyans when I showed up which leads me to believe the patch had been fruiting already for a couple of weeks.  Here's the pics..


Found in the  :heart: of Suburbia in a patch I found last year.  All of the cyans were found along this edgeline.  It has a perfect moist, shady microclimate with moderately long grass and horsetails for the cyans to grow up through.  The cyans were creeping out into the open of the yard, but won't spread too far out into the open until the rains come.



Peering through the blackberries










And some pins for the next visit to the patch!

I'll post some more pics when the rains come and the patch is blowing up!

Nice finds indeed! Seems an unlikely habitat though. Where are the woodchips?

New suburban housing developments are usually built on a freshly devastated/clearcut area, which is the type of environment where cyanescens flourish.  You rarely find cyanescens or most other psilocybes deep in a forest, but rather in the human path of destruction. 
The grass that composes these suburban lawns comes in on trucks from a nearby turf farm.  Something in a fertilizer they use causes the mushrooms to flourish in these lawns.  Last year a certain neighborhood was producing pounds of Panaleous Subbalteatus throughout the summer and pounds of Psilocybe Cyanescens in the fall from the same lawn(s)!  This year, the 2nd year after the housing development was put in, I found no Pan Subbs, but still plentiful cyanescens.

Read some of Paul Stamets writing, especially Psilocybin Mushrooms of the World" and "Mycelium Running." He talks about finding mushrooms in housing developments and similarily devastated areas such as municipal buildings, universities, churches.

Well kept lawns and landscaped areas are a likely place to find psilocybes.

Something is to be said for the way psilocybin mushrooms flourish in the areas that humans are devastating...  Mama gaia's way of sending a message perhaps?

And I agree with Stamets and you about actives popping up around human habitation... something bigger is at work there :wink:

:shocked:wow, that is something that i never understood, but never thought of it that way...perhaps it really is a message, because it seems odd that cyans grow so much in man made enviornments but very rarely(to my knowledge) in forests and such. there is something defenitely significant about that, but there has to be a logical explanation for it, or is there??

what a baffling yet interesting concept

I wouldnt feel retarded just yet_

So far this year i really havent seen much as far as mushrooms go and especially no cyans although some of my friends claim to be finding fully matured ones at their patches in almost the same general area as mine. :confused:

This is like the third time i replied to something of yours today, but anyway its for anyone that needs it, heres just a small general explanation.

Nature doesnt make woodchips like humans, human made woodchips have very good surface area to volume ratio (depending on size) allowing mycelium to more effectiently leech the masses of nutes locked in wood.Humans produce these in such mass quantites compared to nature also. Areas where people have planted lots of trees and shrubs the water retention, shade, decreased temps and extra humidity are all very beneficial. This would be the  same in forests but there would be less nutrient enriched substrate available. Since city areas have such good spots and many would fruit there probably would be more dense concentrations of spores in these areas, which would most likely spread to other nearby favourable substrates in the city and germinate. Forests have dense plants and more shaded cooler etc but theres less nutrient enriched substrate whi.. Plus its no doubt harder to find em in a confusing forest than an easily navigatable city suburbs, making one assume the forest is much less active.
