Hello all, I am very new to this.
I have been curious about taking my first shroom trip, and I was able to locate some through a friend of a friend. Only thing is, Im not 100 percent sure they look normal, and I don't know this guy all too well. Does this look like something you guys have seen before? I live in central Alabama. The guy said they were in a freezer for a bit when he got them.
here is the link to the pic.. I would really love someones help on this..

Looks nasty.... What do they smell like? Looks old....
Honestly.... Don't not look like cubes... Could be something from a hunt...
I myself would not eat them... But I only hunt my own so... Trust myself
Maybe someone else will have a better opinion...
Basically... You don't know what they are, how potent, how old.... Sounds like a risk but....
Just my 2 cents

they have a very distinct smell. I cant really explain it but it really does smell like... something.. Cant put my finger on it.
He said he hunted them, but that is kind of hard here because so many farmers give their cows feed.
So these don't look normal? Do you think they would trip me out or was it just a waste of money?
they don't look like the poisonous kind do they?
I did some image searches of "dried" shrooms around the Alabama area and I found a few that look like my picture...

I'm thinking if they're from a hunt, they could be old waterlogged cubes.that's if they're cubes at all

Not from being frozen no. They're that color most lonely because they are a little past their time, and waterlogged. But don't take my word.get others opinions as well. I personally wouldn't buy them though

Ill second that opinion. They look old and it's hard to tell of they're cubes. ( I found my first cube the other day hooray) anyway, I wouldn't eat them. Can you notice any bluing at all or are they just way to dark? Could be a rip off. Personally I would not buy those. The final decision is up to you. Welcome to the Shroomery!

thank you for the welcome, I appreciate it!
They are just very brittle and I suppose alittle old. I have a friend who is VERY into shrooms and he said he would eat them, so I don't know what to do haha.
This would be my first trip ever.

No problem. I just wouldn't because I pick mine fresh. And I pick a different species that are more potent. If you have a friend who knows what he's talking about, have him take a good look at them in person, and make your decision from there.

he just looked at them and said he is 99 percent sure they are real, just might be a little old and might not trip me out as much as more potent ones would, but being as how this would be my first trip that might not be a bad thing. haha

I live in florida and have picked and eaten tons of cubes and they APPEAR to be cubensis to me. Although im not 100% positive because there just look so old and more than likely improperly dried or they were already old/waterlogged when picked.I live in florida and have picked and eaten TONS of psilocybe cubensis. Do i think they are safe and just cubes? Yes. Am i 100% positive? no. your choice. Also if its just those two, i woudnt even bother.

Don't risk it. Just learn how to hunt them yourself, grow them yourself, or find a better hookup - if my shroom connection showed me that, I would find a different guy.

it was a lot more than just those two. Today I actually got ahold of some more that I feel much more comfortable with. Very good hookup, they look great. I will be experiencing my very first trip in just a few short hours
