Found in Wood Chips in exactly the sort of area I understand cyans to be found in (found ONE that shroomery id'd as correct, and looked very similar to this).
Found in wood chips (maybe even alder wood chips) under maintained shrubs n such.
Wavy cap? Check Caramel/gold/tan colour? Appears so. Stem began white but bruised quickly to what I would call dark purple rather than brown.
Sadly, I am new to this area and all the areas which are supposedly within a trustworthy group were RAPED (I mean BIG fucking !!chunks!! of substrate taken out with the clusters, even small ones, they literally may have been using small shovels or something) so I am sorta teed off.
Especially since this is a painful anniversary of a loved one, it would be fan-fucking-tastic to have some psilocybe to help me grok the situation in a happy way rather than what, i hope it it okay to admit, is usually at the LEAST some perhaps excessive -oh . One way I manage to help the different areas of my brain connect best is with the fungus. To me it is a sort of temporary pseudosynesthasia (hope I spelled that right) where the one becomes many and the one the whole.
Instead, the guy who gets me half-decent-if-im-lucky cubes is in Philidelphia, and since cubes are the only proper active fungus I am able to genesis (sadly several moves for... shitty reasons forced me to repeatedly gift, bury, etc colonies. I'll take this time to ensure you all i'm begging for a handout, expecting to get hard earned (despite the joy that fungus hunting can be!) knowledge, or anything, just any advice that can help me find ?alder,partially decaying already 2.5+years, with ,microclimates which can and do experience knotting and thus basdidiocarp formation proceedes, assuming an adequate supply of fresh air exchange (you're telling me? I visited my provinces largest-company-second-largest-production-site for agaricus several times, and THAT SHIT WOULD BLOW even the building/DIY/inventors etc minds the shit they do on major a.bisporous farms. Or maybe you are all so good because *cough* some of the most amazingly bright contributors ARE ACTUALLY INVOLVED IN MYCOLOGY AND MYCOAGRICULTURE ( Dunnn-dunnn-dunnn ).
So theres my short post which got out of hand with a hand from my "strain of the week" for cannabis (had a license for almost a decade, botany degree, biology degree in progress, trust me, the shit is danker than those dank memes that makes them perhaps too happy over on reddit...
sofar here is my "tips" given to me
1) look in wood chips (check). 2) Look after rains or temp drops (which is always here on vancouver island) 3) research your target well (check)
So although I know I am just being stupidly optimistic, if these were ANY kind of cyans or other psilocybes that would really make a tough time easier for me, as pharms don't really solve problems but mask symptoms, and since I JUST got new spores it will be forever and a day till I have noms.
(FYI, the first few pics will be of the cluster-growing, wood-chip-eating "god I wish they were cyans but with my luck they gave me superaids by looking at them" mofos)
(then will come a pic or two of odd "maybe the shroomery gurus know of these as some less well known species)
lastly, I found a rhizomorphic mycelial mat (well several it appears, or one large underground-connected) growing on wood chips in a park that is known for cyans. Is there any way to start a colony from thus???
Love to each any everyone one of you, and may you never have to face hatred, death, suicide, or other ills in the face.
-------------- IMPORTANT NOTE ----------------
Got baked on some dank ass Candy Cane from Weeds social Club, d-a-yum. One of my more preferred since I could grow ( living with a zillion people like now it's not gunna happen).
Ok wait I got WAY THE FUCK OFF TRACK
ummm
Ok. pics may be in order unrelated to stated above, um, shit happens.
A bunch are ones i KNOW aren't what we're after so plz forgive a guy wanting to shift click shit instead of one by one?
lastly, its those wavy top ones which, though I don't believe I show it well and dark purple is much different than any cubes I ever grew, they SEEMED to worth an ask, thank you all

Which picture is it in your galley? It would be more beneficial to fill out an ID request and post pictures of your mushrooms than to post a non sequitur rant.

Agreed. Apologies. Not a good day for me, and I have embarrassed myself. I'll just log off.
-------------------- First Cyan (indeed first wild Psilocybe of any kind) that I ever did find! Oddly enough, she was alone, in a fairly dark coloured mix of compost and soil, where as every other cluster since was in light/alder type chips!

Please don't. Just tell me which mushrooms you want identified. I didn't mean to be rude.

I forgot to add the pics, becoming distracted, my apologies man its your time I am asking for.
I am guessing an easy "nope for any", but I just had a few drops of hope left that the ones that look (to me) like slightly less caramel (and more.... having frill?) cyans if I were lucky. Alder chips (what I believe were ) under rhodos? I was of the understanding that this was prime place for such cyans.
Thanks

To be clear, the most cool would be if those wave, yet not caramel enough frilly bastards were cyans. I know it isn't likely. There are just so feckin many of them there still! I love to share!

They were stem-white, and then bruised to an almost blue-purple, and then almost brown, with time. on wood chips under rhodos.

Looks like a mixed collection of Parasola, Gymnopus (the wavy ones), Mycena and Galerina. Nothing active, sorry man. I hope that your day gets better.
