@Tak. Thank you very much for sharing your pictures,  this is the best caerulipes photo documentation I've seen so far. Great job.  would really like to see more close up shots.

Wow. Some great finds here. I love seeing them posted. It would be great to find these or get ahold of some spores.

No luck finding these WNY for me... I wanted to go out this weekend, but didn't have time. Supposed to rain a few days this week, and it has been really dry here. I have seen much mycelium growing on beech/birch logs and slash lately, but no fruits.

I've had no luck this week and no rain until thursday in the forecast, but I did try some for the first time today. Took two caps and then two hours later ate about five more (dried). Very mild, but pleasant. Made processing all my Hericiums a lot of fun! :smile:

Really appreciate the videos you fellow shroomers have made on this species. The main issue I'm having is finding hemlock forests. Beech is pretty common but the hemlocks around here tend to grow sparsely around streams.  There is one forest that is all hemlock and beech but it's about an hour and half drive south of me.

Any confirmed findings in CT?

Loving this thread and all the work everyone is putting into it, definitely giving me hope on finding these and I've been finding more and more what looks to be suitable habitat.

Do u guys think these are for rare the further south you go? I'm thinking of driving towards the big lakes cause I remember seeing massive hemlocks and beech trees when I was up there awhile back. Seems like a better bet than going further south to the other hemlock forest near that really tall mountain.

Guys who've found some Caerulipes before....exactly how wet would you say the conditions should optimally be? I went on a hunt after a day of light/medium rainfall and there were plenty of other mushrooms but the conditions on the ground weren't what I would call "wet"...perhaps damp at best. I'm only asking because I see a lot of the Caerulipes posts saying that conditions should be pretty wet..so if anyone can give an example of the right conditions that would be great

That’s kind of a tough one to quantify. I’m obviously by no means an expert and I’m sure others will chime in but the areas that I’ve found them in so far, were wet enough to wet my knees when I bent down to look at them, if that makes sense? Pretty damp but not enough to soak through your shoes? They were also all close enough to a stream/water where it could either be seen or heard and found about 2 days after the last good rain if that’s any help.

Hunt for the habitat not the mushroom.

My first and only finds were right after a large rainstorm, at the very beginning of another rainstorm. The ground was very moist and damp. But it made the mushrooms hard to spot, since they were so dark brown from the moisture

Seems like the planets have to align to find these lil fuckers. Most the forests around here are bone dry again, going to take a ride to the mountains where it's still moist.

Hi!

I'm late to the party!...I'm speechless. Very proud that some of you found them and share your discoveries. Amazing stuff!

Good stuff, thanks for sharing, and I've found them quite potent in my experience(at least compared to the cubensis and subbalteatus.)



Thanks a lot

Nice finds! These almost looks like Aztecorum/quebecensis. What kind of trees were around?

In my spot, no stream or river around. I go in the mountains cause thats where beech trees grows here. What im looking for is a beech dominated forest with big, mature, old, dead specimens. Ive found caerulipes with no hemlock around, just a thick layer (2in and more) of leaves and debris. That layer is kind of loose, the top can be dry but as you dig in you feel its moist. Same thing for the logs, when rotting they absorb water and stays wet for days.

Icy, I'm happy my videos helped you with the habitat. Congrats!
D_T, Mead, Moria, Tak, very good pics! Impressive! Tak how exactly did you proceed to spread spores like maniac??:mushroom2: Seems like a successfull technique!

Best wishes all! I'm gonna start a new thread, coming real soon, to share with you guys some new discoveries I made in Québec once again during my latest hunt, 2 days ago!! Stay tuned :crazy2:

Hi everyone,
I have been a member for awhile but have not posted until now. Myself and another Shroomery member, Rolly, have found and identified Psilocybe caerulipes from Nova Scotia’s Annapolis Valley. The first find was in early October 2018 growing in a mixed poplar, sugar maple dominated forest edge and we have been finding them in the same place and in nearby locations since. The fruitbodies were growing on pieces of fallen wood and from the ground, probably from buried pieces of wood.

In terms of the identification, below is a description from the initial collection, which also applies (more or less) to all subsequent collections. The cap colour changes with age and moisture level and the sizes vary to some extent.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Date of Collection: October 6th, 2018
Habitat: growing in shaded grassy area underneath Populus sp. and Acer saccharum, with lots of woody debris in the vicinity.
Cap: 3 cm x 1.5 cm, broadly umbonate to convex, hygrophanus. The dry part is straw coloured/off white with peach tones. The wet margin is olive coloured (like moist P. semilanceata) and striate (e.g. the lamellae are visible through the cap = think fleshed).  The umbo is blue and there is scattered bluing on the rest of the cap (the dry part). Cap margin is more-or-less even, and central. The moist part of the cap is tacky, possibly sub-viscid. There are no veil remnants. The smell is acrid, characteristic of P. semilanceata and others in that section (semilanceatae). Cap pellicle can be peeled back.
Gills: attached, chocolate brown, close, gills have whitish edges and are mottled in some of the specimens. Spore deposit on one of the caps looks purplish brown. Spore prints are dark purplish brown. Under 100x magnification, the spores were ellipsoid ~8-10um long and 4-5um wide with an almost truncated looking germ pore.
Stem: 0.25 cm x 8 cm. The stem is equal thickness all the way along (terete) in most specimens, one seems to be enlarged near the cap, stuffed, and irregular with a pronounced bend 2/3 way towards the substrate. There are suggestions of a fibrous structure and fibrils on the surface which have collected purplish brown spore deposits. The stem near the cap is pruinose. The stem base is connected to the substrate by rhizomorphic mycelium.
Notes:
Of other four specimens collected, here are the other cap and stem dimensions:
• Cap: 2 cm x 1 cm Stem: 11 cm
• Cap: 2 cm x 1.5 cm Stem: 6.5 cm
• Cap: 2.2 cm x 1.25 cm Stem: 7 cm
• Cap: 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm Stem: 5.5 cm
All specimens exhibit characteristic bluing reaction on stem and cap. Some of the specimens have a bronze tinged stem.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I’ll post some photos from the initial collection and this year’s fruiting from the same wild patch.

Also, please find pics below of P. caerulipes from another patch in a nearby area from the 2020 season. We have been watching this patch since 2019. The fruitbodies seem to be growing on what appears to be a mixture of Sienna Red and Forest Brown Scott’s Mulch (another mystery of the universe, I guess??). This patch started pinning around the middle of September and now boasts approximately 50+ fruitbodies. This patch, which is ~8km from the Atlantic started fruiting about one week later than the other patch which is very close to the water. We have been following P. caerulipes posts on here for a few years and it seems that no one has had luck with cultivation of this wood lover. Perhaps this Annapolis Valley strain (or the entire P. caerulipes population here) is particularly adapted to cultivation?

Anyway, for all of you Nova Scotians with an interest in Psilocybe, it is worth getting out to look for this rare but perhaps locally abundant beauty.
