Please help me identify.... is that mold I see? Help much appreciated :)
    #19218301 - 12/02/13 05:19 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Habitat: purchased dried so I don't know any of these really. Purchased in California. I can upload more close up photos of that would help

Thanks






Where does it grow? Eg. woods, pasture, state, province, country, altitude, etc. What does it grow on? Eg. soil, dung, wood (dead, living, what kind of wood?), etc.

Gills:
Color, attached/not, gills/pores, etc.

Stem:
Length, diameter, color, texture, hollow/solid, thin/thick, etc.

Cap:
Diameter, color, texture, conical/spherical, convex/concave, etc.

Spore print color:
Very important!

Bruising:
Color that the mushroom bruises, if any.

Other information: stinks quite bad
Scent of the mushroom, anything else you think is important, large close-up pictures showing stem, cap and gills.

They are Psilocybe cubensis, besides not having any caps they look normal to me.
That dark stuff is probably spores and some discoloration.

Nah if those are cube stems, which they look to be, thats just normal blue bruising. Its a good thing!

I think cubensis is likely but with them being dried and no caps, I don't think anybody can guarantee it.

Thanks so much for the help, really appreciated! Why might someone remove the caps, is it common practice? And also do they usually smell a bit funky?

cheers

:shrug:

Looks to me like you got ripped off. Shrooms with no caps? That's like paying for bud and getting only stemmy, seedy shake!

It's more like paying for bud that doesn't have seeds in it. I assume they used them for prints. :shrug:
Stems still get you high and that's what you are paying for. You can't get high off of seeds and stems.

I don't know about that analogy either. That implies that caps are a bad thing and the supplier did a favor by removing them.

I think the best analogy would be you got the bottom nugs of the sack, the "shake" if you will.

Ran-D gets the best analogy award, but MJKs was still way better than Prolific Mycognomes lol.  I don't think OP got ripped off at all.  The stipes are just fine, as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah but shake has more kief in it because it falls off the bud and settle at the bottom of the bag, there is more THC in shake than bud by weight.
I smoke a lot of joints so 'weed-dust is just alright by me'.

Shake also costs less, I hope OP got a discount.

There is a persistent belief that the caps contain more psilocybin than the stems.  Many years ago when I was in high school it was pretty common for dealers to give "cap bags" to their regular customers.  The rest of the buyers got "stem bags".  I guess that still goes on, and perhaps that's the case here.

I guess some studies have been done too, proving a minor difference -

Do caps or stems contain more psilocybin?

That's really cool although a little bit inconclusive.

The first time I read this I thought you said, "Maynard I got a fat bag with your name on it, come trade me your nuts for it". :lol:
I would totally trade you, if you lived close enough to make it worthwhile.
You have to admit that shake has more pollen in it than buds do.

No stem weight either.  Some of those big buds have thick branches.

To get high. Why would anyone smoke weed...
Blond hash is just compressed cannabis pollen (kief), It's where most of the THC is. I think.

Why wouldn't you want to smoke pollen...
Maybe it's not the correct name for this stuff :shrug: so what would you call it?
If it came from any other plant you'd call it pollen.
There is more of it in shake than in bud, so you get higher smoking shake than buds.
