Heres pics from two different patches a couple blocks apart.
I found these smaller ones in front of the place i work last week.



These found Monday are from a patch aweia told me about last season.





Its VERY out in the open. Right by an onramp somewhere. I saw them and started to pick fast so as not to be there long. I had filled one bag and was picking to fill another when someone getting on the freeway yelled out of his car, "THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE FUCKING NOT!!!!!!" LOLOLOL
I smiled and thought to myself, "Oh yes they are."
I picked about an ounce dry give or take a couple grams i havent weighed them yet. I did notice a few worms, but they were in ok condition.
So far ive only found Friscosas this year. Seems to be more prevelant in my area than Cyanescens.
anyway happy huntin guys

When i first found the "friscosas" it was like 3 years ago. I was looking for cyanescens. I didnt even know cyanofibs existed. I found the patch and because of the differences between the two i couldnt fully identify them. They were dryed by the sun, i harvested a sample of about an oz. And took them to the Oakland Mycological Fair, I got varyed reports some people saying they were Cyan, some fibs. I wen home and looked up fibs and they looked like they fit better than Cyan, but there were differences that i noticed. as far as the fibs go they are much taller, Aweia has stated this many times. Also the stem is generally fatter. Plus what Aweia mentioned in an above post.
*****close, but not quite..The pins don't look like that here, the dark ring in my photos is only bcause they're getting burnt by the sun, and it's not normal..And you last photo, the semi nipple or bump in the middle?..here's it's opposite and inverted.
then there's the bifurcate cystidia of the Wash variety and these don't have that*****
and finnally the ratios of active chems seem to be more similar to Cyanescens rather than Cyanofib.
One other thing that ive noticed is that the friscosas fruit a couple weeks to a month before Cyanescens.
Also: Anyone have any information on the comparison of the start and end of the Cyanofib season in contrast to the start and end of the Cyanescens season up in the PNW?
It wasnt until last year that we started hearing about the reports of a "new" psilocybe out of San Fran in Stamets book Mycelium Running. I tend to lean more toward this conclusion, based on the info that ive seen.

Civ said: Only one of those pics looks like Ps. cyanfriscosa, but the others don't. Why compare with pics from mushrooms 900 miles away? anyone that has held one or seen a frisc in person would know. I find cyan fibs in SONORA (oh yeah mushrooms of the motherload) <-- yeah and they look nothing like ps.cyanfriscosa. They are not even half the size as a frisco.
This one right?

This photo was taken by hongomeester. Ive met him and he lives in the bay. This is an old photo from before all the friscosa stuff happened. They are friscosas.

CureCat said: I wonder if the cyclone effect is consistent with the Bay Area Psilocybe shown in Paul Stamets book, or if it is it appears sporadically... I suspect it is incidental, but I am not sure.
very good question!
