Need some help please.
    #7015005 - 06/06/07 09:13 AM (16 years, 9 months ago)

I'm sry if this question doesn't comply with the forum rules.
I read the part which states that I should not ask what kind of mushrooms grow in my area and that I should look for the answer in the FAQ.

Well I read the FAQ and my country is not listed.
I also tried looking in the "international locations of psychoactive fungi written by John Allen, Jochen Gartz and Gaston Guzman", nothing there too.

I live in Malta a small island just south of Italy, right in the middle of the Mediterranean.

Temperatures are : High - 82 degrees, Low - 64 degrees
Air Humidity is : 63%

This should be optimal for mushrooms to grow wild I guess, so how do I go about finding out if mushrooms grow wild in my country?

Tnks in advance.

How could it be possible for only two countries out of all of Europe to have actives, and the rest to be barren?

In the ebook by John Allen Psilocybe Cyanescens and C. cyanescens are listed under Italy.

Nofi, but that's complete and utter bullshit. Where did you find that info? Most European countries have actives; liberty caps and fly agarics are found in (nearly) every European country, not to mention a host of other species that ocare a little less widespread (ps. silvatica, ps. bohemica, g. spectabilis, ps. cyanescens, etc. etc.)

Concerning Malta, I'm not sure, I've never visited the island, but I imagine fly agarics and perhaps ps. semilanceata grow there. The problem with Malta would be its agreeable climate. However, I'd be very surprised if not a single active species grows on Malta.

What do you mean by agreeable climate being a problem?
Tnks everyone for the fast replys, guess the only way to find out is to go out there and hunt :mushroom2:

I'll let you know if I find anything :wink:

Well, some species like liberty caps tend to favor habitats that are nice and soggy (at least during winter) and they fruit when temperatures drop below ca. 8C. I suppose that combination is a bit more present on mainland Europe than it is on a Mediterranean island like Malta.

Yup you're right but sometimes we do get temperatures in that range during winter.
But it's usually around 12C I think.
