Re: Post your NZ finds here! [Re: suboriginal] * 1
    #2733487 -

Subs seem to be the flavour of the season in NZ! My patch is fruting fine too and i harvest maybe 30 a week or so. But bugger me last time i went picking i got spotted by a schoolboy, so i guess it's bye bye patch unless he actually is sensible enough to pick only the mature ones. But i doubt that from your average 15 year old thrill seeker :frown:

Anyway has anyone here actually found any blue meanies (copelandia cyanescens) in NZ? According to the "magic mushrooms in australia and NZ" online paper, they should be fairly common.

Here's the pics of the shrooms we have found at a mates place in auckland, north shore. Still no positive ID on them, but they're active.

Nice find clipid. Looks to me like you stumbled across a patch of the ol' Psilocybe Subaeruginosa there, or as they are called here 'gold tops' :grin:

I went out again yesterday and got another batch of subs: about 100-200 in total. They are getting harder to find here with so many people out looking for them. I did manage to find a good wee spot with some of the biggest ones I've ever seen. Didn't have a good camera though, unfortunately. Got a pic on my cellphone but its crap. I'll post it anyway though :smile: One of the caps was just under 9cm across

here you go:

i'm down in Dunedin. The season seems to be really slowing down here. Took 2 hours and quite a bit of effort to find those all those subs yesterday.

Every now and then I get little nostalgia trips of the mass Ps. Semilanceata patches I found at the start of the season. If only I knew it wouldn't last.... *sigh* I tried very hard (my legs hate me) the other day to find some and only managed to find about 150. They were potent though: 5 people had a very good time that night :grin:

I've heard quite a bit about Copelandia Cyanescens in NZ, it sucks no one has put up any pics. They are definitely on though, had a few reports filtering down from Taranaki about them. I've never picked them myself, but I really want to.

And starfungi, what can i say? guess I've got good luck :grin: Once you know what to look for they're everywhere. Maybe I have got a sixth sense though :wink:

hrrm, they really aren't everywhere in wellington. Perhaps in more rural areas, but certainly not in welly! I *really* have looked! 99.9% of the woodchip beds just contain the annoying stropharia arunticea, and most of the more natural habitats like "forests" and parks are just too hilly and dry/sandy/rocky/sunny/exposed for them to grow.

But i'd love for some wellingtonians to prove me wrong! Post yer in-town finds here and i'll get my coat :smile:

Have picked over 500 shrooms in the last 4 days. Hamilton shroomers should get out there, its going nuts! :thumbup: Extremely potent wavy capped subs are also popping up in abundance. No pics yet, but soon.

Here is some I stumbled on abut 4 months ago growing in sandy soil covered with wood chips. It's been dry since then, just caught the end of the season. Am I correct in saying they are Psilocybe cyanescens and not subs? They went green/blue around the edge of the caps and the stems bruised blue in places. They were quite potent.
cheers.

Reason:
They look like Galerinas... deadly. That said, lets not bring last year's post back from the dead. Start a new post.
