Thanks, gents! Below is pictured the total harvest from today, minus one specimen for a spore print Believe it or not, I'm headed back up to the North bay in a little bit to water the hundreds of pins and youngsters that I left. (Way too sketchy during business hours.) We have sunny days ahead that are gunna reach 40 percent humidity...I learned my lesson with this shit already.

these look amazing

With each containing one of the following: Cyanide... Psilocin... Would you take the risk? Didn't think so. This is why Positive Identification prior to consumption is important.

They are definitely Psilocybe azurescens. I know a couple people who have been planting azurescens spawn in the bay area. In the wild, Psilocybe azurescens only grows within 25 miles or so of the mouth of the Columbia river, and it doesn't turn up in our area without someone's help.
Psilocybe cyanescens, P. allenii and P. ovoideocystidiata do occur (only on artificial wood chip substrates) in the bay area without anyone's deliberate assistance.

P. azurescens has been found in it's natural habitat (dune grasses) as far south as Newport/Waldport which is nearly 150 miles from the Columbia river

I doubt it in this case. Nobody in their right mind would try to place a patch where this one's located. Give your peeps a ring and see if they know its whereabouts.

Well, your and Alan's gratuitous assumptions aside, it looks like its natural habitat might in fact extend 800 miles from the Columbia river.

Its very possible someone planted another nearby patch and through animal, human, and / or environmental factors it naturally spread wherever it could. Which just happened to be where you found them.

That's less unlikely, but still improbable. There isn't exactly a psilocybe-frenzy in the Bay area, and the only times azures have been attempted in the Bay, they refused to fruit. So it can be imagined that there's teams of people going around inoculating the Bay with azurescens spawn, but in reality that's nonsense.

Azures fruit just fine in the bay area - someone had them fruiting pretty well at the Oakland courthouse a few years back. There's several people actively planting P. azurescens spawn in the east bay.

PNW UW said: my dad used to take all the seeds out of shitty weed, and plant them in the police station planters. i can imagine someone might purposely put them in the middle of the open so that someone like you would walk by and go "all right! these guys are finally in the area!"
I like your dad. Gorillas. 
And much like your dad, I scattered out a bagfull of cyan woodchip right outside my local police station. I'd loved to have got a picture of them growing there, with the 'Thames valley police' sign right next to that little patch. Just as a little to our local constabulary, but even more to and the idiotic rules that our politicians force them to uphold.
In the same vein. I once scattered handfulls of hemp seed I'd bought from a local pet shop as I cycled down a hill. To this day I don't know if it was the local council that freaked out and grubbed them all up, or some stoner who thought he'd found the motherload. They weren't even in flower!

Dude, quite being a pissy baby. People who have been at this a long time are trying to inform you and all you're doing is throwing a fit. I like you, you put up good posts. Please stop.

So what's your alternate hypothesis? That they spread from their natural range to where you found them all on their own?

Nobody's tried to "inform" me of anything. I just lost some respect for your intelligence.
And anyway, if I remember correctly, you were originally a douche-bag to me for no reason (last year), and then when I effortlessly blasted you a new asshole, you suddenly changed your tune. Welcome back.

What does "all on their own" mean? Spores travel by air, shoes, clothing, human hair, animals, cargo, etc, etc. I just have doubts that a Bay area cultivated-patch was involved.

So to recap: Spores travelling by human shoes or hair is obvious, but by human hand is bullshit and out of the question....
