OFFICIAL Nordic / Baltic Psilocybe semilanceata thread 2016 1

I think I'm first on this forum to report the first Nordic liberty cap for 2016, so I'm starting this thread. I notice that it's exactly one year since the last years thread was started 
This is a thread for reports of Psilocybe semilanceata found in the nordic/baltic countries. This is NOT a thread for ID questions!
I found this one today in a Deschampsia cespitosa along a forest path, at the same spot where I've found the first libs a few years in a row now..

Now, i hope you all will find this many (photos from last year)

All the best for a fruitful season. There must be hundreds if not a thousand in those pics from last season.

Yes, it's about 800-1000 in the last photo.

About 200m. I'm in southwest Sweden, close to Gothenburg. On a swedish forum, another guy reported finding 20, he's in southeast.

Nice! 
I actually found around 50 the second week of July, but I didn't bother making a thread that early.
They've started popping again during the last week. Snatched a few from a lawn today, might be getting out in the fields over the weekend. But the Porcini are out as well, so I'll see who gets the most attention.

Oh, you found some in July, I didn't know that. I actually thought it was strange since you usually find them a few weeks earlier than us southerners 
Yeah, I'm only picking edibles and looking for rare mushrooms now. Will wait a bit before I go hunting libs.

Great man  Those pics kinda hurt me, I was able to find just about 80 last season, but I was a complete beginner. This year I'm gonna go big  I found three more libs(?) today, check my topic(in about 1h) if you are interested.

Hey all Nordic/Baltic pickers! 
I thought I found my first 2 libs this year, but now doubts have settled in my mind. I have picked for some years now, but I am doubting they were Panaeolina/Panaeolus foenisecii . Should have taken photo, but didn`t. It all seemed 100% lib, only it didn`t have distinctive nipple. They had light-milky rubbery stem, dark gils, light cap...
Now when I am watching photos of Panaeolina/Panaeolus foenisecii, they seemed very similar. Guess I still have to tune my ID - skills! 
Google`s Panaeolina/Panaeolus foenisecii:

Can't tell what you got without pictures. Please remember to bring a camera when out hunting.

Taking pictures of what you pick is always good. Like Angler says, bring your camera! And please don't use this thread as an ID thread, lets keep this one for confirmed libs only!

Yes. 2015 was a very good year. Best ever for me actually, and I've been hunting them for 13 years

Incredible one-day hauls knarkkorven! How many fields did you hit for that? The whole day I bet. That's way more than any one person needs, but I can understand the appeal of finding such large amounts. After a while, though, you'd have way too many to use and you'd run out of places to store them. And there are only a certain number of friends you can give to. A haul like that, esp of such a potent species, would probably last me two, maybe three years...and that's just one day of hunting, so it's not counting the rest of the season

Has anyone of you found libs at latitudes north of the arctic circle? I'll go hiking in Swedish Lapland soon and will keep my eyes open for sure.

Yes, in Norway they grow at least up until about 70° north, so I guess that covers Sweden as well.

1 field per pile. About 4 hours for the first, 6 hours for the second.

Yeah, it has actually become a problem. I have solved the storage by extracting them and making pills but I have more than I need, will last a life time with my current trip rate...

They are out here in Norway, but so far in small numbers.
From yesterday morning, these were pretty small (notice the serrated margin and lack of papilla):

I'm however more into the following business these days:
