Hey geko, by native trees, do you mean eucalyptus? (sp?) Coz we found some under a eucal. that looked similar to some pics i've seen on the net. If shrooms grow under other types of native trees, what r they?

God I'm gettin into this whole mushie thing - how much fun is it!?!

Getting into the great outdoors is good fun with a couple of mates, but finding drugs just makes it perfect!!!

Also, how do I become a member, or at least a newbie??

ha ha ha ha Eucalyptus trees are native to Austraila and your chances of finding psyco active shrooms under eucaliptus tree arnt the best, Unless their is pine trees growing amoungst eucaliptus trees, then for some reason the mixture of pine and eucalipt mulsh on the ground just premote's good growing conditions for some and i say some psyco active shrooms.
I have found psyco active shrooms under eucaliptis trees, but they were growing in pine mulch.
But as for other psycvo active species and to what native trees grow in the same conditions your gana have to learn that your self and do it the hard way just like i did But in the end you will thank me for it.
And i dont mind gideing anyone, but i wont hold ya hand ether
Look at the way your talking, thats good posative thinking, If you keep heading down that path you will make a good shroom hunter in no time.

When i first got into mush i couldnt work out whether it was the hunting or the mushroom experiences that made me appreciate nature and being in it the most. I think the mushrooms make you appreciate the grand scheme of the cosmos - and nature itself.
Ive fruited Subs off rose mulch and cardboard, so they can fruit off a variety of substrates - pine woodchips and fern mulch give the biggest fruits, off pine needles alone they only flush once per season and have lighter caps, off Eucalypta and other native mulches they can grow big and meaty too. And tend to have very dark caps

I know exactly what you men bluemeanie, because when i found some Ps. Subaeruginosa at one patch and then i found what i belive to bee Ps, Australiana, They both had smiular caricaristics, Only diffrence between the two was the Australiana had a a copper brown at the center of the cap and got lighter towards the edges and its cap was around 4 to 6cm wide and the Subaeruginosa only had little caps ranging from 1.1/2cm to 2.1/2cm wide, and the caps were more brown in color.
Both were growing in a mixture of pine mulch but the Australiana had gum trees over hanging the garden with the pine mulch And it had gum tree remnints in it aswell, So there was a mixture of gum tree and pine tree mulch.

Went for a bit of search around lilydale, east of melbourne on saturday, just stuck to the parks and ovals with nice mulch garden beds, did turn up any active shrooms. However the recent rain has promote shroom growth, there are heaps of orange-red caped shrooms about.

As an aside i was in Tasmania the week before but it was way to dry, but it rained when i was there so there should be heaps around now. Anyone who wants a few good locations in tassie just ask.

Gday Tazzie - bad luck with being in tassie and it was too dry. Ive got a guy there looking for tasmaniana at the moment.
As for those red fuckers - this is a picture of the wavy capped subaeruginosa growing in my garden - note the very large red mushroom next to it! Not the clearest - sorry im a crap photographer - but am getting a digicam soon! The little guy is the psilocybe.

Yep they are the red ones Im talking about.

That wavy capped sub is just like the ones that popped up in my garden a few weeks ago, hopefully they will produce another flush soon, as my flatmate left them in the ground until the died. I explained that we could pick'em once they had dropped their spores but theres no telling some people....hahaha

Hey fellow Aussies, I am a shroom fan and have been for about 4 seasons now! I live in Melbourne's western suburbs and have found (via word of mouth) a nice area with a few good patches about an hours drive from my home, I have been picking here for 3 seasons now!

I managed to pick about 150 shrooms on Friday 14th June and have used some "Dampsorb" calcium chloride from Bunnings to peform the drying process and hopefully retain as much potency as possible.

As far as Melbourne rock'n this season - I completely endorse this conclusion, considering last year seemed to be quite disappointing!

"I embrace my desire to feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow, to feel inspired to fathom the power, to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain, to swing on the spiral of our divinity and still be a human." - Lateralus - TOOL
