    #26637859 - 04/29/20 11:02 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Pretty sure this is Psilocybe Weraroa, just wanting to make sure.

Habitat:Navive bush in Wellington NZ, growing from decaying wood.

Gills:
Brown gills

Stem:
1-3cm thin stem, whitish when picked, now slightly more brown.

Bruising:
Beige when picked, now with some blue bruising

Any advice appreciated, this is the first time I've actually found them.

Certainly looks like it. A cross section picture would go a long way in making a positive ID.

Thanks everyone,

Let me know if I can't ask this on this forum, but I was wondering how soon they lose potency when fresh? I've read that Weraroa lose potency if they are dried, so I'm not sure what kind of timeframe they will need to be consumed within while fresh.

Is the only other trusted way to preserve them for later, to make them into tea and freeze the tea?

Also I've read a lot of conflicting info regarding dosage. These are about 5 grams fresh in total. For a person who weighs ~60kg, is that worth consuming on its own? Or is it best to preserve these for now, and wait until I've found another 5 grams fresh?

Psilocybe weraroa doesn't contain much psilocin, so you won't loose much potency when drying it. Even in species high in psilocin doesn't loose very much potency when drying. Drying is by far the best way. Freezing tea is another possibility, but it's bulkier and will probably loose potency faster (stays good long enough). Dry them, put them in zip lock bags or an air thight box and put them in the freezer.
5 grams fresh = 0.5 grams dry. I wouldn't go under 1g first time. It's still a fairly low dose.
