Newfoundland, liberty caps (p. Semilanceata) 2023
    #28497268 - 10/09/23 05:14 AM (3 months, 18 days ago)

Hey all haven't seen any post in recent years regarding liberty caps in NL, Canada.

It's been cold enough to frost a couple times but last week the temps was 18-22°C haven't had any luck yet, next week looking at 15 and under so gonna be heading out in the mornings again

is the season right for them?

Or have I just been SOL on my hunts lol

Just made an account to reply to this, I haven't seen any other newfoundlanders on shroomery this year. I've been searching and haven't found anything yet, but there's been barely any mushrooms; let alone semis.

Maybe our season is a bit later where they seem to be acclimated to our colder weather and early frosts? I also have my doubts if where I've been looking even produces at all.

Good luck, though; and I hope we have a bountiful return for our efforts! Feel free to PM to discuss in detail.

Seems that way, usually our temps would have dropped pretty low by now but feels we've been having a warm October lol

Hopefully it's just gonna be a late season for them - next week temps over this way supposed to drop low again so fingers crossed.. always wanted to try liberty caps, but never even met people selling em out this way let alone any clues where to find some so I'm going in blind this year :grin:

heard they were a different type of 'shroom trip' compared to cubensis

It's the same thing over here in Europe, UK and Scandinavia too.
They are really unusually late here as well.
September was 1 degree warmer on average, which is pretty much.

Never finding them in the past + the season potentially being late is making this a tough hunt :frown: atleast its assuring to know im not the only one coming up empty atm lol

Guess all I can do is just keep digging til I hit some gold

I'm terrified they'll go almost extinct or much more scarce here if the season keeps getting so unfriendly and late. Climate change is depressing...

Are you in the avalon area of nfld? I'm near St. John's myself.

If it keeps heating up I guess we'll get other Psilocybe species taking over.  :bigjoint:

Western NL! I'm a little more limited on my options of where to search but it's not off the table for me, just more distance to travel to get to some better areas

How are we experiencing summer temperatures in October though goddamn :frown:

I'd say we're probably just gonna have a short season this year but the proper cold temps for the season before snow drops will be short I think so I'm wasting no time this year whenever I got it




I wouldn't be against new species of psilocybes showing up here but the things that'd have to take place for us to see them naturally seem scary :ooo:

Well, it's confirmed that we have P. Caerulipes on the island! Super rare, but it exists. I've heard talk of a couple other potential species, but I don't want to spread conjecture until I see a specimen picked here.

Check out Psilocybe Caerulipes, I'm guessing the ones found in NL were somewhere western. For liberty caps, check out any field with yellow grass, that's what they feed on. I would think some should be out by now, even if it's not fully in swing yet; so start finding places that it could habitate so you know where to go the days after it rains.

In Western NL, you probably have a fairly large amount of grassland within an hour of you some way; pastures and graveyards are the classic advice but you can find them in any field with that yellowing grass. Consider spreading spores yourself once you do find some, too!

Next coming days I'll be going out some areas that have that good pasture type land

being in a city that's all mountains and forests there's a very low possiblity they're even abundant around here when the season is right

but there is a little town nearby that has farmland and horses, I'll take loads of pics of my finds and pick a couple samples of potential liberties :wink:

hopefully soon I'll be back with some pics asking for IDs :grin:

It was an attempt at a cheer-you-up joke on my part. I don't want any drastic changes either.
But it seems we're in for it nonetheless.

definitely keep looking, climate change is depressing for sure (especially when i talk to older people) but im in maine and found my first lib of the season today, so i’m sure they are up for all you newfies

edit: wait wtf caerulipes is in newfoundland ?? i thought you guys didn’t have beech forest ? i’ve found caerulipes growing from birch bark once … but didn’t think it would occur so far removed from beech. was there ever beech on newfoundland ? like before the last ice age

I'm hitting some fields tomorrow morning :grin:

Got some high hopes since we have been getting a ton of rain here and some cooler temps at night and I'm sure they're here even at this moment I just gotta find the right spots

Our libs seem to have evolved to like the frost, so I think this contributes to a later season.

With regards to caerulipes, it was indeed found here; I saw images from forayNL. Dr. Andres Voitk found them here, and I'm assuming those were the ones pictured. I also did a double take with excitement upon discovering this, lol. Time to hit the forests in search of these!
