Yeah, the mushrooms on the elephant dung are Psilocybe coprophila, a non-active psilocybe, but still a cool mushroom to find, and thats a great pic of them you have there And wild Ganja, man thats a nice find. I found some wild weed growing in Minnesota earlier this year, it was crappy ditchweed left over from the second world war when it was grown for hemp. Almost zero THC in the bud of the plants, but still a cool find nonetheless. Is the wild sativa you found active, or just rope dope like mine?

hello again hmmmm marijuana :yes it did originate in the himalayas, from where it spread pretty much all around the world. they have pure sativas in the indian part of himalayas : its not unusual to see 15 foot plants or bigger... in afghanistan, the himalayas sort of carry on to become the hindukush there they have the more indica dominant, rather completely indica dominant plants from which we get todays afghani #1, kush, and the much loved northern lights
lizard king:: id have been disappointed if i hadnt come across some wild ganja man. theres so much ganja in the himalayas that it grows in towns, on the side of the road, in fields, iin meadows... its a weed man ... if you want, ill post some pics of when i was in manali(major hippy destination, lots of ganja plants + charas) and the parbati valley - literally awash in cannabis plants . as for being active - it most certainly is man. this shit is not hemp - its cannabis sativa, tho these plants were still a month n a half to two months form completion, i.e. just started budding...
am glad u like the pic of the coprophiliacs, wudnt have guessed they were psilocybes, but they looked cool nonetheless!
peace guys... later ds :

Once again great shots...really sweet journey. I would guess that there are several species of psilocybe in that dung...could be wrong though. As for the wild cannabis, also fab the birthplace nonetheless...I also found one lone plant growing from a curb just last week, I took some pics...will post them...truely a funny sight.
Cheers

The first photo appears to be a type of Psilocybe. -IIt may be Psilocybe Cubensis, or, Psilocybe SubCubensis??
Mjshroomer, What are those!?
lizardking, you found those growing from elephant dung??
The second photo is Panaeolus antillarum. -Inactive.
The rest of the mushrooms are none of interest..
Keep shroomin, Safe travels,
