This thread was moved from The Pub.

Reason:
This is where this should be!

The Pub is more of a community forum. The best place you'd call home on this adventure would be Mush Hunting & Identification.

I asked a mod to move it if he or she sees fit and I'll get you some more information in the meantime.

What you can do is make a separate identification thread. After you type in the Subject, there's a drop down box for mushroom identification. If you click that and choose "ID request", it'll spit out a template that is typically needed for identifying. Someone here probably knows it by sight but you could find it useful down the road. Don't forget to make a new thread for an ID request, but if you come home with like 8 different specimens then throw them together with required information and you should be golden.

There are also "Trusted Identifier" folks who are mycologists or damn good at what they do so if you're unsure on a finding make sure that white tag is underneath their registration date. You'll see it around I'm sure. They are the go to people here.

A Psathyrella of some sort is likely pictured above with the purplish print. All look to be the same species. Not sure which one, there are around 400. :cookiemonster:
PS.. also adden and op.. the cyans I heard of were picked growing wild on islands in the extreme south near BC.

No kidding? Mind posting some active pics if you have them? I know I can't be the only one who saves everything..

I'll have to find out what area of AK the cyan spawn was in. It's the dude(tte) who was running azure spawn. Had a flush one season and they didn't come back in that spot.. so they made another for this next season. I'll do some digging around.

My uncle spent the 60s and 70s in Seattle. In the early 80s he moved and said the mushrooms he got in AK were 99% of the time cubensis, but some of his buddies would get the mushrooms he picked in Seattle, but only at certain times of the year and they were almost always fresh and everyone ate them in group settings. For whatever that's worth I dunno.

Oh that's cool I lived in WA before we moved up here. So your absolutely positive the ones with the dark purple or black spore print aren't anything of value?

I am fairly sure they are a Psathyrella and 100% sure they are not psilocybe.
And adden, I haven't been to much for taking pictures lately sadly. I lost a computer a few years ago and run off a phone. I usually only pick libs a couple times a year for a strong Fall trip or two. Ran into cyans and beaos a few times too by fluke. Will take some lib and edible pics next month if it ever rains.

They vary but seem pretty standard. :mushroom2:

haha really Niffla,
There are definitely some in Alaska




:lol: as you can see my mushroom hunting knowledge depth is quite lacking

But seriously, I went up to Wyoming several years ago on a transfer, and I looked into it (on the web) on whether or not Wyoming had actives in the wild, and I coulda swore that they didn't. I thought it was too cold or some shit.




Wyoming also has active species, though only a few. Next time you'd like a trustworthy opinion on the availability of active species within a given area, consult this guide. It may not include every area or every species, but it will give you a good idea of what to expect.

Wow thank you added for all the info. I'm posting 3 more pics of some spore prints I just made last night. 3 of them have almost black to purple spores. Pretty sure im getting closer to what I'm looking for

Thank you for including the stem, cap and spore print. I am not sure what species is photographed, but if a gill shot is provided, it may make identification easier for the next user.

:goodluck:

My guess is ovoids do not exist there at least outside of backyard cultivation anyway.  They have the disadvantage that they don't do much growing when it gets cold. Ps cyanescens do not mind cold at all.  Not sure if those exist there either.  But they can be cultivated easily enough. 

Tiny cones sound like hemlock.

Those spore prints are pretty spot on.  I think they might be a Psathyrella species though.  Are the stems really brittle and snappy?



The stems were brittle 24 hours after picking.

Going out to find some more candidates. I'm trying to learn more about mushrooms and you guys are very helpful. I'll post pics this evening if I make it to explore

The only place in North America I could see not having any psilocybin mushrooms at all is Nunavut or North West Territories. It really wouldn't surprise me though as Quebec is fucking cold too and has some good hunting.





I believe Panaeolus cinctulus grows in every state.

How you like dem apples.:awetongue:

Replying to share first hand Alaskan info - and a crazy story!

I originally found this post after taking a walk near Skagway Alaska and noticing the amanita growing everywhere. I was curious if any psilocybes grew up here and found this post!

I read through the thread and basically derived that I should be looking for cyanescens. Doubtful I’d find anything, I wandered through the woods and I shit you not I found this patch within 10 minutes of reading the article.

Skagway is located at sea level along the taiya inlet about 90 miles north of Juneau so they must be pretty widespread throughout southeast.

Pretty crazy stuff! Was skeptical that I had actually found them so I did a bunch of research and even found another patch where I collected for spore prints and etc.

Posting to say, they’re definitely out there! Take it from an old skagwegian forager.

These are not Psilocybe cyanescens. Please post some pictures of gills and stem. I think Cortinarius is not unlikely.

You should by no means eat any of these.
