Found in Florida cow field. Just looked a bit different than the other GTs. Stem bruised blue for sure. Thoughts?

Could be some cubes that got too cold. I have found some cold cubes that almost fooled me many times. Was there perhaps any dung underneath that grass?

Those are psilocybe cubensis, just look different due to colder weather.

Psilocybe cubensis, beautiful! I love the variations of the species.

Yep I knew it! I used to find cubes with temps in the 40's when I lived on the panhandle of Florida. They always looked so crazy and they seemed to actually be much more potent thanm warm weather cubes.

In my opinion and experience, cold weather cubes are way more potent than summer specimens.

well if it matters to you two's thoughts on the subject. Here's proof, tonight I took 2.7g of cracker dry from some found a few days prior (cold for sure) ...xmas shopping at the mall with my wife. I was literally way out... In a good way...I think...?? Took at 3:30 and just now feeling semi normal at 9pm. Felt way more powerful than expected.

Hey Doc, is there any scientific explanation on that effect ? I mean cold weather cubes being more potent

Maybe they produce more psilocybin in the colder months to deter pests more so because growing conditions aren't as perfect as they are in the warmer humid months? That is my Theory.
Doesn't Cannabis produce more trichomes to protect it's self when they get frosty at night? I read that somewhere.

As well as they tend to grow slower in colder months. Could be a factor

Oh yeah, giving them more time to build up even more alkaloids, makes sense as well.

I have not seen any studies on this, I know that they start Psilocybin and psilocin production once they hit the knotting stage and then once spores start dropping they shift from production of active indoles to spore production. SO, I believe that there is more Psilocin being produced in cold weather cubes because spore production is almost nonexistent until the mushrooms have fully matured. when its cold, even after the cap has fully expanded spore production will be barely visible with the naked eye, if at all. In my opinion this allows the mushrooms to keep producing higher levels are indoles until spore production reaches a certain amount being produced at one time. This is all conjecture on my part, but now that decriminalization is happening hopefully someone will start studying them in Ernest.

Wonder what Alan thinks about our theory's? All sound plausible.
