I.D request: 99% sure cubes. Need second opinion!
    #25118791 -

Habitat:
Where does it grow?: Cattle pasture / grassland, Texas, USA, within ~100 mile radius of Houston, altitude ~100'. Found growing upright, without interference, on a disintegrated cow patty.

Gills:
Color: Matte cardboard grey, hint of tan.

Stem:
Length:2-3" diameter: 1/4" color:Beige?, texture:Shinny. Stem has a black skirt. Stem felt hollow when I pinched it below the skirt but it doesn't look hollow.

Cap:
Diameter: Large one is 2.5-3" depending on line of measure. color: aged tan, fairly light. texture:Smooth, convex, small cap is more flat with convex dimple.

Spore print color: In progress.

Bruising:
Color that the mushroom bruises: Initially a hue of green, then it looked dark grey, still seems like it has hues of green but its almost in-perceivable.

Scent of the mushroom: Smells, uh, funky?

Other Information: Cubes seem to like it when the ground dries out. Found on a disintegrated cow patty. Thought cubes like shit that is 4-6 weeks old?


I saw unrelated mushrooms growing out of the open dirt and decided to go check again after giving it a days rest. No actives in the first cattle pen, returned to work, then went up to the second cattle pen. I figured it would be more of the same, dried up patties, non-actives, then I walked down my less common path and just when I was thinking more of the same, hiding behind the grass were these two.

I left the shrooms in place and continued my hunt, rather than beat them up while crawling around. I'm also aware of game cameras in the area and I don't think my neighbors would appreciate seeing me with a hand full of shrooms while waving at one of their cameras. Found one of their recreational possessions as well and left that by the camera.

I'm fairly certain that these are cubes but a second opinion is always nice.

Hey guys, I found some like that in a cow field near the Bryan/Hearne area, and asked for an ID request but was given a different identification. Would you guys mind giving me a second opinion? thanks.

I hesitate to cogitate for fear I might deviate from the true path of rectitude; In short: I do not know the answer.

Sorry but they are still not P. cubensis. Check the tobacco brown color of the gills, versus what would be
purplish dark to black in P. cubensis. I suggest Agrocybe sp.

Although group shots like many of yours can make it difficult to see important details, I think they still reveal enough detail
to say there aren't any Psilocybe species among them.

Ok, I appreciate it. Trying to teach myself the craft and I learn well by doing, so the second opinions definitely help. Hopefully will make my first find soon! Have a happy season guys!
