Need Quick ID--Field Shrooms

Hi all, first post here. Love the place already. Anyways I have recently acquired some hand-picked field shrooms from a friends (mind you he is anything but an expert in the area of shrooms). I need help IDing these shrooms. They look a lot like the ones that I usually get but I really want to be sure. I know a few people who have already tripped on these so I'm pretty sure they are legit. Just want to be sure. My Guess is that they are P.Azurescens (just a guess from looking at pictures on this site.) Thanks all.. Glad to finally be a part of the community. Here are the pictures:

Edit: sorry they were found just outside of Houston.

They look to be dried cubensis but i'm not so sure the caps dont look golden enuff' that and I havn't noticed any bluing/bruising on the stems......
.....and where would u be located? If you're on the east coast/south east They are not P.Azurescens most likely p.cubensis

They dont look active to me, My mushrooms seem to bruise with blue no matter WHAT i do with them, Just drying them causes blue spots on certain spots (mainly the stem where it was picked from and on the outer edges of the cap) if theres NO BLUE AT ALL dont even consider eating that shit.

I don't think they are active either.
Taking a picture of mushrooms against a dark reflective background is not a good way to get good color representation. Take another picture but use something not reflective and as close to grey as you can get as the background.

You might know guys but you don't know for sure they tripped off those sounds like crap to me
You don't wanna return them because you think the guy might think you're smarter then you are?... thats messed up dood.. go get your money back those are not magic mushrooms... And whoever said they tripped from eating those lied to you..and deserves to get smacked

Even if those mushrooms were psychoactive, half of them are rotten. Either way, I'd demand my $ back.

I agree with CureCat and Giblet, they were either picked rotton or improperly dried and they are probably not active to begin with.
Edit: The blueing does not show on your photos.

I don't see any way that those could be the right mushrooms. If someone tripped on them it is likely that they are adulterated with another drug and/or a nasty mold.
If people are really tripping on ones just like them, save them for chemical analysis.
Don't try it yourself and I would advise against giving them to anyone else, just in case something bad happens.
They look like an agaricus or worse, definately improperly dried, and maybe laced with acid or pcp.
Print out this thread and bring it when you return them to dude.

I don't think people waste their time soaking shrooms in acid or pcp (although I think there was a case in the 70s where that happened with PCP). This case here is either a stupid dealer, or a dealer who planned on ripping people off in the first place. As far as your friends 'tripping,' it's a known fact of human nature that expectation can make people feel whatever it is they expect to be feeling. They paid 40 bucks for mushrooms, their expectations were high, and they talked themselves into believing they were tripping. I bet if you ask them they'll say something like, "it was a mild trip, but I definitely felt something."

XMushr, canned frozen hallucinogenic mushrooms are still sold around the world.
In the west they come in sealed 'K' ration cans, a horrible color of green as in a GI can of shrooms, generally laced with LSD and sometimes sprinkled with PCP to hide the effects of the acid.
In Europe, similar shrooms are still available except they use shitake and are believed to come out of Asia or SE Asia or the Philippines.
When the shrooms are opened and left in the can in the icebox, the melting ice in the shrooms carries most of the acid to the bottom of the can so someone getting a dose form the bottom half seems to get a most heavy high from the shrooms than those at the top of the can. Especially when the ice melts..
I personally know someone who purchased such a can at the Eugene Country Fair two years ago in 2005. I first bought one in the early 1970s. IT was that phony can of shrooms that led to my lifetime of shroom research. I was so curious as to why someone would sell me something other than what they said it was. I too sent my shrooms to Pharm Chem, that was one year before I found my first liberty cap and two and a half years of looking but not finding any real ones.
btw, Here is a single sheet from Pharm Chem Labs in Palo Alto, California who analysed hundreds of such mushrooms. This sheet is just one page from a single month of analysis at Pharm Chem.
If you lived in Oregon or California, The University of Oregon would pay for all drug analysis from those two states.
You would call the Pharm Chem Lab 1-800 number and they would give you a special number. Then you would mail a five X seven index card with info on what you bought, what it was suppose to be, how much did it cost, etc and put your special code number they gave you on the card. Ten days later you could call a second number, give them your special coded number and they would tell you what you had.
I have dozens of these pages from several years of analysis by Pharm Chem.

Wow mjshroomer. Thanks for that info. I am shocked that such a thing still occurs. If you have acid, why not just sell acid? I guess you can drive up the price by selling shrooms in certain locations.
Scary stuff.

For some reason or other, these shrooms are sold at college student levels and to High schoolers in suburban areas.
Even in Waikiki, one person in the early 1990s offered me a can of the same ones I bought in Oregon in the early 1970s.
\ \I remembr living in the Haight-Ashbury and a guy sold me green flat tabs of acid which he said came from the syndicate.
Now I am not totally stupid. If someone from the syndicate made and was selling acid, they definitely would not tell you they were from the syndicate.
Another point is that when I bought my can of frozen sealed shrooms, I was told they were smuggled in from Mexico by the mafia.
Hahaha!

that shits crazy just shows that you can not trust anyone. Here they sell mushrooms in chocolate wrapped in colorful foil. Makes you wonder if the mushrooms that are chopped up in there are psilocybin or LSD instead.

You twit, read before you open your mouth!!

Rollitup420,
For your information, people put blue and blue-green food coloring on shitake and portabello mushrooms they buy in the grocery store and sell them to people as psilocybian mushrooms.
People crush shitake and put them in capsules and sell them as psilocybian mushrooms.
Are you for real or are you a troll?
