Just got back from a new field. found a mixup of stuff. i'm wondering if the big ones on the left are some sort of inactive Psilocybe. i'm noticing bluing on some and greening on others. who knows this shit?
peace,
rafi

Damn dude, I'd tell ya the big ones were cubes but there's no bluing. Keep checking those for bluing, they've got the purple veil and everything. If they don't briuse, then they're some species of Agaicus. That big mushroom in the bottom right hand corner looks a lot like a Pan sub. THe rest look like a random mix of Copes/pans. Good find man!
Peace out,

On second thought, get a print of those big ass shrooms. Looking at the pic again, the first pic, near the bottom right, you;'ve got a cube there, that one with the veil that hasnt broken yet that blued like a mother fucker, thats a cube.

Looks like there are two unmatured cubensis, and the two big ones really do look like cubensis, however the stems are not white enough. I bet those smaller ones are cubes for sure cause the bluing.

not all wild cubensis stain very blue, especially big mature ones that have been growing out in the sun. I am over 50 percent certain that you have some cubies there. as for the smaller ones, while some are certainly in the correct genera, I don't believe you have any active species there. all of the fat stemed white ones with brownish toned caps are likely "el gigante" cubensis.
test for sure by grinding some of one up in a blender with some hydrogen peroxide straight out of the bottle. you'll end up with a mass of blue specked faom if it is an active mushroom.

Yes, the two big mushrooms are positively Psilocybe cubensis. There is a total of 5 cubensis in your picture, and two suspect copelandias that I see in there too, maybe more, but I'm not sure about the copes, hard to tell from the pic.

Hold up, there are definitely copelandias in that collection. The top right mushroom that has a blackening stem is a cope, there are two others also that I can positively identify as copes, and I'm sure some of those smaller mushrooms are probaly copes too. To identify the copelandias ckeck the stem for bluing and take spore prints, they will be black prints.

Hi damnfunkypro,
Well i know exactly what all those mushrooms are.
You have a mixed collection.
And you haven't yet learn to seperate your blue meanies from the fakes.
The Cubensis are obvious.. i am sure you can figure which those ones are.
You do in fact have Copelandia cyanescens, the blue meanies!
-The problem with this collection is that you also have "fakes" in there.. non-active Panaeolus sphinctrinus (i always spell that wrong).
...it is bad form when you cannot tell the difference (not criticising anyone here, just stating the facts).
Your doin' great out there funky,
...it takes many trips to the copelandia field before people learn to tell the difference, and this is why i usually urge caution to those people collecting this mushroom in such a manner..
keep on shroomin dude,
GG
