First hunt id request
    #22334666 - 10/04/15 08:41 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

Hi all!
Just came back from my first hunt. I'm generally after psycho-actives, but I thought it would be cool to be able to identify everything in the area.
Thank in advance :laugh:

Habitat:


Santa Elena, mountains/hills around Medellin, Colombia. (area known for growing magic shrooms (I assume cubes)
Year round moderate spring climate.
Altitude 1100-1200m
89% humidity, rains practically every night and day (didn't rain on the day I went)
15-25 degrees C
A lot of sun light too. Slopes I went to all faced South/West.

1.
In a grassy field, on a slope.
Growing out of the soil
Gills: mustard yellow, pores
Stem: 60mm length, 10mm diameter, pale yellow/white, black dots, solid, thick
Cap: 40mm, dark (slightly redish) brown, spherical, convex

I think it's Bolete (Leccinum)






2.

Growing out of manure in same location.
Gills: Grey/purple, gills, some had weblike film covering gills or evidence that they used to have
Stem: 20mm length, 1mm diameter, pale yellow/yellow/browner on top, thin and hollow
Cap: 15mm diameter, texture is slightly sticky, spherical and convex

I think they are cubes.








Also, found ones that were similar but darker brown. I assume these are simply older and bruised?





3.
Growing out of soil, in field.
Gills: White, gills
Stem: 45mm length, 9mm diameter, white + redish brown, smooth, solid + thick
Cap:90mm diameter, light brown, darker in middle

Totally unsure about what this is.




I accidentally squashed my shrooms on the way home like a proper noob, so prints might be difficult. If you need more specific photos please ask!

#1 looks like suillus luteus, poisonous
#2 looks like stropharia semiglobata

I'm lost on 3, waxy cap, chanterelles or some other I can't find in my guide. So tired

The ones you thought were bruised,I'm not so sure they are.

Yep, I second your #2 being something like (Proto)stropharia semiglobata and then the darker ones might be Deconica coprophila. Neither look like cubes to me.

The stem texture of #3 makes me think of Macrolepiota, but I don't know...

Thanks a lot for the fast replies

Ah, all inactive then :frown:

Boo, apparently there is a valley very close to where I was known as the 'mushroom valley' which is popular with the local hippies. So there must be some actives in the area

Cap color and shape, gill color and stipe. Spore print should be purplish-black. I have tons of these on our 10 acres. Very common in manure. My field guide calls it a Manure Roundhead. I've picked so many of these things I just step on them now.

I'd recommend getting as far away from your particular area and look for higher elevation and more moisture. Look for mosses, good places to hunt in my short experience.

Yeah, P.Stropharia is very slippery when wet. If they were cubes you'd have bruising that was blue. They drop spores in about an hour. Put a cup over the cap and confirm ID with a purplish-black print.

I don't usually say an ID for sure myself. But I have no doubt. P.Stropharia Semiglobata.
