[Libs] The more north, the more potent?
    #6139321 -

A friend(this guy) told me that and I somewhat believe it, cause 20 Libs made me trip balls. And as you can see he even found some BLUE Libs, which means they're ultra potent. I remember even reading about it from Finnish wikipedia but I dont remember how Libs are called in Finnish, so I cant look it up.

Anyway why I wanna know this, is cause one "im-so-fucking-smart" guy says "You are a fucking dumbass you idiot...the more north they grow the more potent they are? How the fuck could that ever be true? You are a complete fucking moron you idiot you can cultivate the same kind of mushrooms in south chile that you could cultivate in canada... You are retarded..and yes you are a dumbass."

Some smart mycologists please post your opinion, so I can refer that fool here, maybe he will believe you more than me.

This "im-so-fucking-smart" is not smart at all. :wink:

Show him Jochen Gartz findings:

HERKUNFT PSILOCYBIN (%)
1. Dübener Heide, Ostdeutschland 0,96
2. Prag, Mittelböhmen 1,05
3. Krasna Lipa, Nordböhmen 0,91
4. Norwegen  0,95
5. Pazifischer Nordwesten, USA 0,93
6. Niederlande 0,97

Source: Psilocybin haltige Pilzarten im europäischen Raum
Vorkommen, Morphologie und Inhaltsstoffe Jochen Gartz und Markus Berger

It´s in German, but I think you can figure out the countries yourself.

No results from Finland, Sweden or Iceland in this report, but there is probably no difference here (there) either.

Yea i've heard when they purplish they are very potent, dunno if it has anything to do with climate though.  Maybe its the acidity of the ground or something?  I do know however that round here they get you fucked, and thats good enough for me :thumbup:

All I can say is the ones here in Newfoundland are fucking huge. I had one the full length of my hand yesterday with a cap about 3 fingers wide, and I have a big long fingered hand.

There were so many huge ones that I guess you can say overall you get more bang for your shittrot.

Friends of mine here in the U.K have claimed that Scottish shrooms are stronger, since I've never had any I can't comment.

Ought to be ashamed of himself big-headed idiot, even if he's right (just remember the bigger -headed- they come the harder they fall...!!!). If you are going to say things like that to people without substantiating your claim well......

What about New Zealand or Australia? Would they have the lowest because they are the most southern country? No, I don´t think so.

It´s all a case of nationalism. Our country has the strongest, bravest, most good looking.. blah blah blah

I think it depends on climate. So the more cold, more potent, or something.

That could be possible (temperature). That happens to be one of my personal theories (with no evidence, of course). It's hard to prove it, and I actually don't really care to do so, but here's my theory:

IF psilocibin is produced by the aforesaid mushroom as a protection from extreme temperatures, AND they produce more depending on how extreme the temperature is, then they would be more potent depending on how extreme the temperature. Although cooler temps might not necessarily be the only reason for more potency. To warm and too cold. Too warm only. Too cold only. Who knows? Anyone?

That's a little thought I have on the potency of wild shrooms which contain protective triptamines.

Actually I agree with the smart guy - potency would have more to do with phenotype and the availability of precursors than location...
And Moving target does wicked pieces...
