found myself wondering...

i've been doing my homework and i've found that florida is really an awesome state to find magic shrooms at almost any point in the year, which is where i'm living.. but im wondering.. do you absolutely have to go wandering about in cow pastures to find them? granted i know its absolutely illegal, (unless you have prior permission), but i'm trying to figure out if there's any other place that would be ideal to look. i've read that the cow poo is what helps them to grow...do i have that right? but like i said, couldn't i just meander around in the woods or somewhere? or does the dung really have an avid part in them growing?

To find Psilocybe cubensis, by far the most common one out there, you need to look in cow poop.
You will also be able to find actives in lawns (Panaeolus subbalteatus and Panaeolus castaneifolius) and in the woods on dead logs (Gymnopilus).

Yeah,Alan is right,you gotta hit the fields,and right now the season is in prime condition.It's been raining almost every day here in north florida,and the humidity is out the roof.I've never found anything active here in woods or lawns,so i wouldn't waste my time.The horse or cow fields is where you wanna be.PEACE

yay first post in this forum.
First, thanks to everyone for all the good info here.
I, too, now live in south florida, and the weather is exactly what the FAQ's have said to hope for. I'm dying to go hunting, but I'm a little nervous about roaming around fields in Broward or Dade county. The local sheriff dept seem like real nazi types.
