You need to spread those shrooms around farther apart on the paper or they will cause rotting and bacteria and a loss of some potency foir being on top of each other. They need to be spread as not to touch each other when drying use newspaper and place them either high up on a shelf or low on the floor with air and/or heat with circulation.

Thanks Mj, those were just the piles we made after cleaning/picking all the grass out of them... also my scale could not hold them all at once, so we made 4 piles, each weighing apprx. 100 grams. They dry pretty quick, about 30 hours.

Well, I never seen stuntzii stain blue, but there is always a tiny ring around the stems left from the veil tearing... and this is more black than blue.

Stunzii do not stain blue? That's interesting. I've only been hunting for a while, but I've been looking in chipped areas for white stemmed/tan capped shrooms that stain blue. I also see that your stunzii are growing in grass, does this mean that I should not be overlooking shrooms growing in grass? It looks like I've got some more research to do...

Contrary to your belief but check this page out for some pictures of bluing Psilocybe stuntzii's
http://mjshroomer.yage.net/species46aa.html
They do stain blue and not only grow in grass but also in woodchips and in hay/straw woodchips.

Acually mj, I just picked another batch today, there is a 'slight'' bluish 'tint' to a few of them, mostly around the torn veil area, but they are not 'REALLY' blue to where one would notice it unless they really really looked for it. That has been 'my' experience with stuntzii's.
Now I will go look at your link/pics

ok, I justed checked out your pic, and I have seen that picture before; but you know whats weird, the Stuntzii/ringers I have bee picking for years look absolutely nothing like those in your pictures; but I know for a fact that what I find are psilobus, and match only one description... stuntzii. I have always wondered about that picture, I have seen it in different mushroom guides (always the same pic), but have never seen 'That' type of stuntzii in real life.

All psilocybes very greatly in how they look, there doesnt seem to really be a method to the madness. Check out these stunzii, they are a woodchip variety ehh.

the ones I've JSUT FOUND THIS WEEK WOOHOOOOOOO don't seem to stain blue either and yeah if you asked me to name the colour of the ring on most of them blue would definately not be the first colour that came to mind. Some of the ones I found today were pretty dark too like the piles in your picture...

Cardboard, if the temperature went up and the sun hit those the secon orthird day and the hygrophanous color change to straw-yello began to occur then you would observe blue-green tinges around the caps edges and then on the ring. They are cold Iand damp from athe rain and they are rainy wet looking, but The blue ones in that picture cape up clustered in a lawn and the sun was drying the caps to a straw-color and my squeezing and handling them came blue.
If you look at my cyan pictures at my site I actually posted some of them with green in the caps. This is caused from the bluing reaction mixing with the straw-yellow color to produce an aqua-green or blue-green tinge.
I have observed this for many years in bigger fruitings., yet many blue ringers like liberty caps do not all get blue.
Take them home under a halide on the floor on white p[aper and as they start to dry you will see some bluing occur.
