As an area, is the lake district any good? Anyone got experience of that? Don't live anywhere near it, but seen pictures and it looks good. Obvs don't want a wasted journey.

Also, went to Scotland last year, loads and loads of secluded areas, with what looked like ideal conditions, but from what I remember it's not a popular place for picking?

Just wanting to broaden horizons, so anyone got any experience/knowledge of these? Again, not asking for specific locations, just areas.

i've never even been to the UK (lol) but i remember mentions of finds in previous threads about both scotland and that lake district you're asking about.  wasn't the first find ITT this year in scotland?

it really seems like during the right season, right habitat and right conditions, one can find P. semilanceata anywhere in the UK...even on football and polo pitches.

I don't live anywhere near it either, but, just to pass the time of day, I 'google earthed' the first town name I came across on the BBC's home page and had a look around. I've never been there, and I'll not even say where it is.
This is just to let you get a feel of what to look out for in google earth in your neck of the woods, if "your neck of the woods" has this stereotypical English 'patchwork quilt' landscape.



See that field to the left that looks like a pinstriped waistcoat, and others nearby that have a similar pattern? They are recently ploughed, and, until I'm told otherwise my members here who have had luck finding mushrooms in such fields, to be avoided.
Unlike the cowfield discussion on the last page. Sorry psy, couldn't resist :wink:

The group of fields in the center are more likely to have what you seek.

So, if you haven't already, download and install Google Earth.
In the "layers" section at the bottom of the sidebar, make sure the terrain box is ticked. This will open the elevation indicator in the bottom right of the satellite picture, which gives you a readout of the height above sea level as to 'mouse around' the terrain.

If your only access to the web is from a phone, then I don't have a fekin clue about it. Apart from, try the library. :shrug:
Have fun, and good luck. :mushroom2

I've decided to not go along with getting them any way after doing research on LSD and Research Chems, the amount of people who try flog off 25I-NBOMe as lsd now days is a joke especially with the amount of people dropping down dead from it. I even went through the bother of getting myself a kit to test if it is LSD to lasted find out the can add this compound to it which would make it come up as it contains LSD I value my life more than a trip. I'll just be patient and wait until shrooms start popping up in flushes in the south west.

I had a great time picking in Scotland last year, found a secluded place i think scotland is a great place to find libs, the habitat in alot of the areas i was (south west) were perfect all over and it didnt take me long to run into plenty of spots!
The lake district is great too!

firstly you need to get a better source, since testing every LSD tab you get isnt going to cheap. Darkweb is honestly the best place to look for LSD nowadays, since good LSD is dead on the streets. Also nothing wrong with 25I-NBOMe( its 1/3+ the price of LSD, not too easy to make, so random crackheads are making it and chemically it isnt in any way horrible. some people claim its more ''shallow'' than LSD and i would agree, but every trip you have doesnt have to be some spirtiual awakening, sometimes you wanna go to a park and see the trees form into honey combs and 25I-NBOMe is pretty decent at that ), just a lot less tested than LSD and has a much lower lethal dose/LD50, though being sold 25I-BOMe as LSD sucks for sure.

Best thing you can do is buy either LSD or 25I froma  much more trusted source so you know what your taking and don't double dose and die, which has happened to pretty much everyone, i think like 20 ppl that have died on 25I-NBOMe.

I love the ones that are this colour and have that proper teardrop shape. I'm starting the long process of separating them out now so they can dry properly.

Fair do man. It'd probably play on your mind and ruin the trip anyway if it was real acid. Not too long to wait for shrooms anyway :smile:

25i is a full agonist of the 5ht2a receptor and thus is much more likely to be harmful than a partial agonist like LSD. The tolerance period is much longer, usually you have to wait at least two weeks, and other serotonergic psychedelics will be greatly weakened during this time. The precursors are much easier to get and the synthesis is a LOT easier than LSD also, that is a significant reason why it's so popular, the ease of it to obtain. It's far from a one-pot meth synthesis but compared to acid it's child's play.

The visuals are really good on it and the headspace is a lot clearer but overall (at least for me) messing with full agonists is dangerous. Not everyone who died from it was double dropping either, people have died at average to low doses of it. Others have taken 10mg of it and had no ill effects; it just seems like too much of a dice roll compared to the safety profile of LSD.

Good morning guys, hope everyone is having a better seen than I am! So many early finds it's been crazy. Me on the other hand have had no luck, south east Scotland has decided to be dry for weeks. Weeks. Partial rain once or twice a week. Blegh!

The thing is that really long grass can often be the best home for them as it holds its moisture throughout the heat of the day. There have been a few times where I've spotted one poking out of some long grass and stopped to look through the grass, and suddenly discovered a treasure chest of shrooms hiding from view.

It's just not realistic though because you can't walk around and spot patches growing, you'd have to sit down and move all the grass around, and you could spend all day doing that in the 10 square feet of the field that doesn't have any liberty caps.

Regarding the golf course thing though, when I was 16 I worked on a golf course and my boss always used to tell me stories of people coming onto the golf course to pick mushrooms, but I never saw any in my time there. In my opinion a golf course is not the best place to start looking. Land that is grazed by sheep, rabbits, foxes or deer tend to be best.

Brilliant info thanks (Scotland, Lake District and the map picture), feel more confident now about venturing to these parts :smile:

This is what I'm looking for, but any time I see fields enclosed, I just think I'll get done for trespass. Tried looking at loads of "right of way" maps, but still not much wiser. Thanks though, I'm definitely on the right track (so to speak)

See earlier posts, never got done, but the amount of attention I get with one particular (and happens to be the best field) area is unsettling. I've since found out it was a massively popular spot for years, so locals are keeping their stupid beady eyes on it. What harm eh?

I've got 3 really good fields close to my house but it's so open people would see me a mile away and it's really public too. Sucks balls. It's not even a place I could go to at 5am cause people travel next to it so often!

true... I was spotted by a very tofty type mansion owner that owned shit loads of land, he was with his lab dogs etc when he spotten me smoking a fat joint by a nice tree , looking at google map on my phone... if you claim naivety and ignorance you get away with it, you have to be honest , the more honest you are the more likely they let you get on with it.. which he did :-) ya don't nesecerlly-(lol , even spell checker wont work with that one) have to say magic mushrooms, but I'm just out picking mushrooms man, its my thing , gets me out in the lush fresh open air , I aint causing no harm,look I even have an id book so no harm is caused to my self or anyone else  - then they don't care, they more concerned about whether u gunna shoot their shit 2bh.. the point is I guess, the more paranoid you come across , the more it gives them a reason to suspect a lie.. just relax and be yourself about the situation if you get caught on private land,very worse they do is tell u to piss off, they don't cal the police cuase they know it would waste their time, coz by the time they arrive - as we all know just how slow those fucks can be, ya gone, vanished into the autumn mist ..

the only thing that unsettles me are good spots near roads, in the country, main roads, one - police can drive by and spot you, two - other potential hunters could drive by , by chance and have your spot racked up...... ones near main country roads I go for the night pick and time my torch light according to the traffic...

Hey everyone. I'm new and I'm wondering if these are liberty caps I found today. I'm only asking because these are the first I've ever found after hiking up a hill earlier. Unfortunately I only got 9, and they seem to be quite small, probably because it hasn't rained much.

BTW I'm in Wales, this was at an elevation of about 200m, there was some dew on the grass around the corners of the field where the wall would cast a shade. Also there was a lot of horse manure.







I'm also more than happy to take an individual picture and label them with numbers to make it easier to pin-point any mushies that don't look like libs.

Thanks and sorry if this was a newbie post.
