FondaCox!!! How do you use your dehydrater? I mean do you use the elament that came with it and if so does it get too hot? and if you use something else what do you use? I have a deydrater but I'm scared to use it becasue of heat. Right now I throw my fruit on top of cover sea salt then put a fan over them. I would love to use my dehydrater thats why I got it not thinking about the heat. Clue me in. Peace

I've been using a heated dehydrater , the kind with the heating element in the bottom. I put 2 empty racks on it first then 2 racks of mushies ontop and leave the top off. I also have a small fan blowing down into the dehydrater. They get cracker dry in about 5-6 hours. I havent noticed much of a potency loss at all.
FondaCox: I've found a few patches that were all monsters too so far. Here's a pic comparing a quarter and a normal cyanescen to a patch of huge ones I found. All put a very good book in the picture for the hell of it.

Happy Hunting and Good Luck!

Mathewww, get out of the city, I'm sure you'll find something. Don't look EXCLUSIVELY in parks or w/e, try neighborhoods too. I'm no expert, this is my first year hunting, I had zero luck the first 7 days looking in random locales(parks, schools, business places, w/e) then I just rode my bike around some houses and just about shat my pants when I saw cyans growing in wood chips in someone's front yard.

As in the commotion of Seattle, get out of the city limits and into a more rural area. That's what I meant.

Lol, for real. I mean, yesterday, I checked out this spot jeremy told me about, and there were little holes where I could see traces of mycelium. The city is full of dumb asses from what I can tell, and those dumbasses are probably too lazy to go out of there way to find something else to rape.

Actually, you'll do better right in town. Look for well-landscaped condo and apartment complexes, nursing homes, corporate property, etc., and specifically look under and around Rhododendron bushes. If you'll just walk the sidewalks at the above, you can't go wrong. RR

Yeah, it just takes time. You put the time in, odds are you are going to score. I had considered posting all my spots on the board, but I guess thought better of it. It wouldn't be half as fun if you already knew exactly where to look.

SO.... I've been bed-ridden with this f*cking cold/flu thing.....
I rise from my stupor and drive past a couple of spots that I know are surely getting picked out by PIN-KILLERS like CaptGarden Sure enough... nothing there, except tell-tale signs that the season is changing gears. The flushes of cyans that greeted us in the beginning of the season are coming to a close. New patches will have to be sought in coming days.... not everywhere, of course - some of our favorite patches will continue to pop - but this little dry spell and the weather fluxes we've already had are innevitably going to decrease the pinning of existing mushroom patches - and with such warm weather still here, is likely to give a kick start to new, heretofore unseen patches....
Tell-tale signs of a patch coming to the end of it's season: (at least in my experience)
Slowed growth, and alot of premature bluing:



Another is premature and/or unprovoked hygrophany... This pale mushroom should be caramel brown... and No sunlight hits it.

Finally, my favorite sign that P. Cyanescens season is changing gears (I won't say 'ending')...
... Finding THESE growing nearby.
Azurescens:





The coolest part... is that this patch of Azurescens had literally been stepped on by the same idiot that was picking the pins in one of my favorite cyanescens spots all season long. Slim justice... but justice nonetheless.
Oh... and some poor schlub left these lying around. Probably the same fool Pinkiller... doesn't know what to do with adult cyanescens.
 I pitttty the foo !!!!

Is that the park on Watson Ave? I see Aminita's growing there often. Good luck on finding actives around here. This is my second season hunting and no such luck.... damn cyan's haven't found me yet.

Yeah, Jaymes, I mean I have looked in neighborhoods and parks alike. I've been checking in some business shrubbery as well. It hasn't been limited to just parks. But nonetheless, no luck.
People tell me that everyone has this notion that you have to get out of the city to get any mushrooms. And they say that idea isn't necessarily true and that they grow everywhere.
So I don't know. But I have some friends that live in some more rural suburbs that I might go out with and take a gander around there.
By the bye - to Jaymes, Rogerrabbit and anyone: Are the buildings, houses, areas you mention here older buildings and developments or fairly old and undistubed landscapes?
I ask because the neighborhood I've been looking is a really well-maintained area.
Thanks.

Fuck, that is a giant haul of cyanescens!!!
Here is nice secluded patch of azurescens. I love it when I can take my time without any fear. A wonderful way to spend a sunny fall day.
