I'm sure he has a Million P.Semilanceata samples by now? Wish I had seen this post originally but I have Sterile Libs I've always wondered about potency comparison with... as well as Eastern Nova Scotia Libs divided by site foraged ranging from 2011-2016 (soon 20017 ) are you aware if they would be of any interest? if not what's the best means of contact for him... email I assume?

Alan: Thank's for the update, I have been wondering for the past year what happened.
Liberty King: I have sent him P. semilanceata, and I guess others have as well. I think science have enough data on potency regarding this species. It would be more interesting if we could get more of the exotic finds analyzed. I know that this study will give us results of several species previously untested which is exciting, but there could still be some more out there. To everyone reading this, don't hesitate if you got something rare!

Wish i'd known about this.
i would have tried to get specimens of Psilocybe subaeruginosa from a few locations in far south Tasmania to add to the mix.
or even Tasmanian Psilocybe semilanceata
next time.

Alan, do they take into account active compound deterioration via travel, mail, drying out etc...?

I do not know. If I was them I would try testing the same sample at the beginning of the study and after a couple years sitting at room temp to get an idea how the numbers change over time.

It'd be interesting to know by how much the 'psychoactives' deteriorate with aging in the field. Is a knarled old flyblown and weatherworn lib as potent as a photo-perfect young specimen from the same troop.
Many of the lib examples in the UK threads I wouldn't pick, same as I would leave behind mushrooms in a supermarket that have obvious signs of deteriation.

Yeah I kind of figured that but thought I'd check! Thanks for the Info!

I was just saying Psilocybin Mushrooms of the World is so out of date I wish there was something newer. Exciting

Alan Rockefeller said: I just spoke with Jan and he said they would be running samples until December.
If you have any collections that you would like to get tested, the time to send them is now.
It would be interesting to see more Pluteus, Gymnopilus, Pholiotina and uncommon Psilocybe species.
The address to send them to is:
Jan Borovicka, Institute of Geology CAS Rozvojova 269 CZ-165 00 Prague 6 Czech Republic
Make sure they are well labeled so the photos and other collection data that go with the samples can be recorded.
Would he be interested in California Stuntzii and these?
The second ones location was recently woodchipped again which is good in the long run, poor for photogenic opportunity this year.

Gymnopilus aeruginosus Gymnopilus luteofolius Panaeolopsis sp. Panaeolus bispora Panaeolus cinctulus Panaeolus olivaceus Pluteus salicinus Psilocybe allenii Psilocybe azurescens Psilocybe cyanescens Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata Psilocybe pelliculosa Psilocybe semilanceata Psilocybe stuntzii

I do not know. If I was them I would try testing the same sample at the beginning of the study and after a couple years sitting at room temp to get an idea how the numbers change over time.
Seems to be a serious constraint on the analysis, unknown preparation and handling would immediately devalue the result IMO unless there were extremely clear findings. Any variation in results could be attributed to the fruit or the preparation e.g. unknown drying time and temperature.
I would be interested to learn what effect the drying temperature has on the active chemicals, if any. Personal experience is that the 40C max recommendation has no credibility. I have accidentally dried them at 60C after a device malfunctioned. Curious, I sampled them in a measured (weighed) dose and there was no noticeable reduction in the potency. But then that is an unscientific report from an occasional drug user, WTF would they know.
Marry that with the fact that boiling (100C) has no noticeable effect either and I started to believe that this 40C drying temp is just another urban legend, passed down through the decades.

The long-awaited study is finally here! This must be it, right? Alan, can you confirm?

...Furthermore, mushroom collections were provided in response to requests on social media by anonymous donors from Australia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Sweden, and the USA.
Very interesting content!

Very interesting, very interesting. It appears I need a bohemica spore sample... for microscopy...
