Mushroom Paranoia Question........................

Out of paranoia I have to ask are these magic mushrooms ??? They bruise blue like at the bottom of their stem but the rest seems to bruise more black than blue maybe I?m just color blind ? So, I thought I?d ask the experts that know all about this stuff... I?m afraid of mushrooms...

They look like P. cubensis. So the answer is yes.
The black(violet in fact) stuff you see is spores that fell from the gills of the mushrooms.

were they wild picked?? if they were, beware that some shrooms like like PC's but can be poisionous. try washing the violet spores off with cold water. if they wash off, they're spores. i'm not an expert though, go into the FAQs, and look at the picking wild shrooms FAQ, and look at P.Cubensis, since thats what they would be. good luck, hope all goes well

> beware that some shrooms like like PC's but can be poisionous. Care to name a few? I can't think of any that a would be found in the same habitat... Cubes are probaly the easiest psychdellic mushroom to identify. If its got a cap that fades from brown(golden) to white, has a purple veil, stains blue, was found in/around manure, and has purple-brown sport print, it's P. cubensis.

I can say with certainty that if they have purple spores and are the muchrooms on the plate that they are cubensis...nice find.
Cheers

Good find! You are right to be careful.There are very few mushrooms I'll eat out of the wild.

yeah guys those were grown on cakes... I was just paranoid so I asked becuase I have never done mushrooms before ! I didn't post it in the wild thing they moved it there. I want to thank the shroomery for helping me along ! Over the years I've heard some people say " ITS HARD ! They don't tell you how sterile everything has to be and they all got contaminated" Well I tried the PF method and it was extremely easy. If I ever do it again I'll try casings...
THANK YOU ANNO !
PS sporeworks is an awesome vendor !

I kind of thought those were suspicious looking...did not want to cause shit though.
