psilocybe cubensis identification melbourne
    #21727739 - 05/27/15 08:10 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

Habitat:
In the clearing area near pine trees. South East Melbourne.

Gills:
Light and some older ones with more darker brown, all bruising.

Cap:
Nipples; some that were also more flat or with inverted nipples. Darker gold with age.

Spore print color:
Purplie brown.

Bruising:
All bruising blue.

I am just wanting some extra opinions on some of the mushys I found around the area I get goldies from.
They bruise excellent but some of the bigger ones have thick stems.
I am unsure whether this is due to the different climate to other mushys in the area.

Also there are a few big  ones without a full flat top curving under more with less sign of nipples than other big ones. Some looked sun burnt and I figured it was from too much sun as of the start of season and from dying / releasing spores.

Questions:
Do look alikes stain blue?
The spores look good but some are harder to tell being so dark in colour but more blue/purple than any other colours (eg yellow or dirty brown).

Some are not perfectly shaped went a little wonky or without a nipple and a few with inverted nipples. Could they be look alikes?

I am pretty confident I would just like some more insight and opinions.

Do they go darker from too much sun or when dying?

Can they have very thick stems / not squishy like.

If the stem only has a little bruising and goes more yellow than whiteish are they sub species?

Thank you lovely peoples oxoxoxo

P. cubensis isn't found wild in Melbourne, I believe.

Looks overall like P. subaeruginosa, but I'd be carful vouchering for every single specimen.
OP, you should take better close up shots of any and every single specimen you have doubts
about, i.e. the ones not showing any obvious blue bruising or any other significant traits for
said species.

Very true. I always tell them to stick around and wait for a TI like yourself. Also I thought about the validity of my statement because you are right I cannot see every mushroom there because there are simply too many. Sorry OP. Spread'm out get closer pictures and never ingest before a TI says your golden!:bigyesnod:

It's a great haul, the problem is that each individual can become difficult to ID when they're that mature/size. I also would like to see some more shots :thumbup:

thats a lot of fruiting bodies!

i would like to see more shots before i can say yes or no.  i see what may be a Leratiomyces ceres, but i need close ups to be able to tell.  and spread them out more.

Cubensis dont grow wild in Victoria.
