here's another example in photos >>>





would you confuse these two types? If they are both cyanescens, then why do people reject the bottom photo ones, saying they are no good, and go for the top photo?. I have seen even smaller variations between an edible and a deadly poisonous type (not just a different species, but a different genus), so this is potentially dangerous.

the bay Area location is key for one thing..there's a famous ongoing story here every year about people from Vietnam, Loas, etc who get poisoned by Deathcap amanitas evey year...They confuse it with an edible fro SE Asia that looks very similar to the Ammanita Pantherina here...Even more similar than the differnce between these two photos

yes, there is plenty of confusion about this new species, therefore this thread was started. For one thing, I never saw the ones in the bottom photo before maybe 6 years ago, and I've been picking cyans for 24 years.

in the past it was all cyanescens here in San Francisco, and pretty much that was the only thing in town...Then about 6 years ago, the turn of the century, this appeared

Great thread and very informative.

Here's a few pics of an unknown Bay Area psilocybe.
I'm not sure what it is, possibly cyanofibrillosa.
These are cultivated pics started from a wild patch.

I haven't eaten them, yet I'm fairly certain they are a psilocybe. All stained blue like the last photo and have purple black print.

Notice the intense bluing from a squeeze beneath the cap.


Stropharia ambigua are unique in that they usually have adhering veil fragments which remain around the margin.



Anyway, Workman has a sample, so in time I'll know for certain.

These Stropharias is what I meant...probably ambiguas too, but most of these don't have that veil..Some do, but most don't around here.

But you can sort of see, how the difference between these Stropharias, the wild friscosa photos from last year, and your photos is getting a little tougher

some friscosas from today
This is from a known cyan patch but it seems that the friscosas are taking over


This is from my friscosa patch that has been producing for the past 3 years

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

what an awesome thread.

Well these mushrooms have been found as far north as Humboldt area and as far south as Monterey Bay. But the mecca has to be the San Francisco Bay Area, which is why I named them 'CyanoFriscosa.' Before we were just calling them fibs or unidentified psilocybe. Now they at least have a name, offical or not.

Characterisitcs: short stems, usually not to thick either. They caps are meaty and not usually wavy, but sometimes are.
More Potent than the cyans I've found and don't lose it after drying.
