P. Sub or P. Austr. hopefully

Psylocibe Australiana? or Psilocybe Subaeruginosa?
Habitat: Found in A.C.T in my backyard in the compost heap.
Gills: off white/ brown colour Stem: 2 - 6 cm long, white, hollow.
Cap: dark brown to light brown convex gills .
Spore print color: taking spore prints now
Bruising: a few of them have bruised blue, and the mycelium underneath the bark where they were growing was blue
Other information: smells like subs Ive picked before but just don't quite look the same, and were found where i normally discard them after making tea's.
Pictures; not the best quality because its foggy outside and had to take them inside, but someone else pick them and kept ripping out the mycelium so i took a photo of the one that had blueish mycelium, as the day starts to look better i will upload pictures of the pins, if anyone wants to see them, they look just like P. Subs

It actually looks a little like P. cubensis, but more pictures would help, especially of the stem and underside of the mushroom.
They are probably P. subaeruginosa and definitely an active Psilocybe.

Few more pictures, im still letting the caps sit on some paper to get some more distinct spore prints, but spores are definitely a light purple/ light brown colour
But those few pics, are of close ups of the stems, and a picture of a pin just to show the blue bruising, and where they are growing, do cubensis grow on wood-chips? because i thought they liked to fecal matter...

well i have now 100g wet, if i leave pins there will they keep growing? or is that just wishful thinking :p
and there is alot of wood-chip with obvious mycelium growth on it, if i put that in a fish tank with some moist wood-chips do you think that will sprout?
more pictures of the stem, i just thought it would be way to early for subs to be growing in Canberra....

They're subs for sure. Pins will keep growing if you leave them.

is there anything i can do with the spore prints other than look at them under a microscope? apparently these woodloving types are hard to cultivate.

You can start patches with prints  Just test this: mix some with water and spray in likly places, allthough they won't grow to net season if at all :/
Or you can send me one.... I'm in Aus too would be great

No no no dont bury it probably won't work.. You could follow one of many woodlover teks you can find here at the shroomery..
Sending is no prob . Spores are 100% legal here in aus, it's great! Next time take the spores on foil or paper, it's easier to see colour. Easier to id...
I will pm you if you want to send
By thy way nice finds

P. australiana and P.subaeruginosa are one and the same species.
P. australiana and P. eucalypta are depreciated synonyms, meaning the names aren't considered valid anymore.
You're mushrooms are Psilocybe subaeruginosa

haha oh ok, thanks for that bit of useful knowledge, I'm going to try put some of the mycelium in a container and keep it moist and round 15 degrees and see if i can get any luck, or maybe I'm just pushing the luck haha

I think you should make some colonized woodshaving spawn and make some wicked patches

Boil up some hardwood chips to hydrate, cool, leech, chuck in stem butts, wait. Add more chips/bury with more chips. Wait till next season.

cheers for the advice man, would growing the be similar to cyans? because they look alike and grow in same environments and I think they are closely related species.

haha yeah but i dont mind sharing with them, :p
and you can see in the second picture I have a few more pins coming up haha, if they all open up n dont abort again i should get another 100g fresh outta there
what's the chances of the patch fruiting again next year? will it pretty much fruit every time it gets the right climate? or can the mycelium die off eventually?

Yes, until the substrate is expended.

If you don't feed it new wood chips.

I estimated the chance that they would return next year, based on the health of your patch and past experience.

If it already ate all the wood chips and is turning into dirt.

No not treated, just fresh.
