 I'm still at a loss with the lack of any spoor!
I picked these up yesterday down on the Bay somewhere{:-)]

Dude.... I still think those spore-less cubes are pretty cool. But they are getting me a bit worried..... Why are all the spores that germinate mutated?? I imagine it is environmental. Very very weird. How many fertile specimens are you finding compared to spore-less?

Almost none.... One in 20 or so...
Its got to be the cold..
The wild thing is I spent the day on a 10,000 acre ranch today... 1000's of cows.... I looked and I looked but nothing .. All I found was some cool neon orange Jelly's.. So I dunno ! The small place I find these mushrooms has a constant grow going on... Its been about 3 months now with two trips a week and every time I have gone i have come home with mushrooms... No more Copes by the way.. Oh and they had Spoor.. Just the Cubes are Naked!

Are all of the infertile mushrooms growing from the same pattie? I mean, could it all be one mycelia network?

the cold usualy does it. in several species of psilocybe, the sporeless specimens appear as the winter closes in and the frost starts, even if the winter is closing in during spring...

It's got to be the weather. We have had an unusually cold winter down here. I've frozen my ass off now every time I go for a sesh in the Gulf, and I'm getting pretty sick of the shitty weather. But hey, the cubes are out and about!

Be thankful *anything* is coming up for you. I haven't seen the ground in over a month. It's all buried under ice and snow.
Happy mushrooming!

It usually only stays around for a week or two at a time. This year we got that big blizzard the week before xmas (28 inches at my house), and we've gotten more snow every week since then. I've never seen a winter like this here - it just keeps doing more every week, and it never quite gets warm enough to melt it.
On the positive side, if it keeps up we should have the best morel season in years, and if it keeps up through the summer we'll have an incredible year.
Happy mushrooming!

28 inches? pfft, try 6 feet! Alaska doesn't play around when it comes to winter time... The sporelessness is definitely a cold-weather phenomenon. The shrooms don't have the energy to sporulate because they're concentrating on growing. By the time maturity comes around, there's nothing left for spores! Infertile specimens are always the more potent, though.
