Hi guys. Thank you for previous ID.

I went for some more hunting yesterday but some of the mushrooms were a little different colour. I think it's because no rain for last two days but I would be thankful if someone could confirm.



They still have all characteristics of libs, but are nearly white. Is that normal?
Thanks

All libs, nice one. When a liberty cap mushroom first emerges, it tends to be moist, and is usually a lovely shade of brown (with a hint of olive green maybe). If conditions are damp and wet, the mushroom cap will likely remain a darker browny colour. But if the rain stops for long enough, the mushroom cap basically dries out somewhat, taking on the ivory-white colour. If the white cap is re-wetted, it will darken to a muddy brown colour with some fleshy colour too, but never quite returns to the browny-green of the freshly emerged mushroom.

They're much easier to spot when at least some have turned white, or are older, more than a couple of days. When freshly emerged and still a browny-green colour, they're very easy to miss, especially when it's raining/windy and visibility is difficult.

As they dry, some caps take on various "two-tone" patterns, especially when very small. The resulting appearance can cause confusion.

By the way, when wet, and certainly when only a day or two old, it's possible to peel the so-called pellicle off the cap, the presence of which is a confirming feature in the identification of psilocybe semilanceata aka libs. The pellicle is basically a translucent one-cell-thick membrane (like the membrane found between layers of an onion) covering the cap. The pellicle is the reason a fresh or wet lib feels slimy. Grab at the edge of the cap with a couple of fingernails and it should lift off. This feature, along with "blueing" (the stem or cap develops a definite blue staining, sometimes almost unnoticeable; not always present, but often occurs after bruising of the stem/cap), and the correct spore-print colour (brownish purple) are the 3 confirming features of liberty caps, when there's any doubt.

Hope this helps.

I'm trying to post some photos, I got 431grams of fresh in 2 days in a field that was poor for it last year. Who said 2020 was a bad year.last Sunday when all the caps were white. So delighted.

413grams? Wow :laugh: That's inspiring me to keep looking. What kind of temperatures are you looking at? I'm wondering if it's getting too cold here on the other side of Europe.
