Auckland, NZ - ID Request
    #21712926 - 05/23/15 03:09 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

This is my 3rd time hunting, I found these in 3 different locations.

I think pretty much all of them are Psilocybe subaeruginosa?

1st Location



Habitat: Found growing out of woodchips in a reserve.
Gills: Creamy-White colour, the bigger ones are very dark.
Stem: Whitish, most are quite thin.
Cap: Browny-Gold
Spore print color: Haven't yet done one.
Bruising: They all have blue bruising, the bigger ones are very dark.
Location: West Auckland.

2nd Location



Habitat: Found growing out of bark under what I think was a Mahoe tree in a carpark.
Gills: Some are a creamy-White colour, others have started going a darker shade.
Stem: Whitish, most are quite thin.
Cap: Browny-Gold
Spore print color: Haven't yet done one.
Bruising: They all seem to have blue bruising, some of them have even gone a bit black.
Location: West Auckland.

3rd Location



Habitat: Every single one of these was found by themselves strewn throughout a large park home to 1000s of inactives, finding these was like finding gold.
Gills: Creamy-White colour, the bigger ones are very dark.
Stem: Whitish, most are quite thin.
Cap: Browny-Gold
Spore print color: Haven't yet done one.
Bruising: They all seem to have blue bruising either on the stem or the caps, some have gone very dark.
Location: West Auckland.
Note: Some areas of this park seemed to have been sprayed. These though, were found in hard to get to parts of the park among flax bushes growing out of woodchips, one was found growing out of a tree stump. I was just wondering if the spraying might be an issue?

They look good to me. Psilocybe subaeruginosa Make sure the mushroom in the top right of your third location bruises blue :thumbup:

Just to be safe double check that they all bruise blue and smel similar. Post any questionable ones.

If the council has been spraying glyphosphate I would feel extremely uncomfortable eating subs from that vacinity.

That top right one bruised blue for sure, I just went over them again and can see visible blue bruising and they smell right to me (they seem to have that distinctive sub smell).

:whathesaid:

just keep an eye on the second from the right, top row third location as well.

make sure they all display blue bruising.

subs have a smell you cannot mistake after a while.  they trigger my "alert", i know its them.

Yeah subs scent is distinct. Can't mistake it after a while. I took my friend on his first hunt and by the second hunt he was identifying subs from scent. I was pretty impressed.

My phone camera isn't showing the bluing that well, but that one also is quite noticeably blue.

I've triple checked them for smell and bluing and I am quite confident they're good to go based on your advice.

Yeah the smell/taste is pretty distinct, I hunted once with a friend last year and had my first trip then too and only started hunting by myself this year and I'm pretty sure I've got a good sense of the smell now.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the help.

I think I'm gonna pop them in the dehydrator.

I'm almost certain everything is good bro. Good job hunting on your own, feel free to contribute to the NZ thread if you get some nice finds :thumbup:
