I was feeling kinda spontaneous today and decided to go hunting for some shrooms. I did't really expect to find anything but much to my surprise i found many different species. I live in north western pa and was just wondering if any mushroom experts out there could shed some light on my find. Im new to this so please help... Anything would help thanks.

If you ate them all, you will have an awesome death.

If you call dying in a pile of your own shit and vomit a cool way to go? I guess it's better to burn out then fade away.

You have a few Russula species, an Amanita or two, perhaps some Agaricus species, and maybe a Lactarius species, among many others that I can't identify based on the picture.

Don't worry, I think the big, bad world of fungi will give him healthy bitch slap if he keeps it up. And to hydro I apologize for filling your thread with our ranting and raving about this guy. If it makes you feel any better, I think you found a nice variation of mushrooms.

Thanks guys, but just so you know i wasn't going to eat any of them. Im not an idiot, LOL... I just would like to learn as much as i can about different plants and mushroom species, and i figured that some the members here are like experts to the world of fungus.
My plan is to somehow cultivate a specific species if i learned that is was something edible.

I'm not really sure as of yet but something that will be well worth my time. I don't feel that i have acquired enough knowledge of mycology yet to safely say for sure... I need to learn,
- the law
- species identification
Today's little mushroom hunt was just for fun, but in the near future, I will be doing studies for the best methods of cultivating shrooms through science and technology. With some trial and error, I hope to develop the best known system for growing mushrooms.

Sounds awesome man! I am going to be looking into something similar, hoping to find a way to cultivate some Amanita muscaria and a few choice edibles, keep me in the loop about it if you don't mind!

That sounds cool. I have a wooden fence that I want to try growing some oysters off of. If not I'm going to see if I can get a few edibles to sprout off a rice cake, seeing as nothing grows in great numbers here.

If you numbered them I could put names on most of them. But looking at ones that I would cultivate I would say none. Not because none are edible a number are but none are good choices to cultivate.

- Gymnopilus luteofolius
- Gymnopilus luteus
- Panaeolus cinctulus
- Pluteus salicinus
- Psilocybe caerulipes
- Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata

And my guess would be the pan. Cinctules to be most common. Because they are most common active mushrioms

I'm a SW PA hunter. Here's the rundown on that list of PA mushrooms.
"Gymnopilus aeruginosus Gymnopilus junonius Gymnopilus luteofolius Gymnopilus luteus" are all wood-loving BLG gymnopilus species. You can familiarize yourself with their large, orange, woody characteristics and find them fruiting off of dead wood in summer and fall.
Panaeolus cinctulus is a dung and lawn-loving active mushroom that is especially weak. You can find near impotent ones in lawns or more potent ones growing from animal dung. They grow in every season but winter and are quite common.
Psilocybe caerulipes can be found in summer and fall in beech forests growing off of hardwood. They are quite rare.
Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata can be found in prolific patches along creeks and rivers in western pennsylvania in early spring (april 20-june 1) If you have a patch already located you may find some in the fall if they're fruiting. If you're looking for actives in PA, these are your best bet but you will have to do your research on the species and go out looking for them in early spring. I have had great success with this species.
Psilocybe semilanceata doubtfully exists in PA. If it does it is extremely rare and only grows in very high altitude ares when it is cold.
