Dammit, I'm getting jealous of the countrymice. Might have to invest in a growkit as I think my chances of finding any this autumn are around zero and I feel like dipping a toe in psychedelia after a very long absence.

Marmalade - Yeah, some lovely lookin libs there! %) Previous pics were my own pickings but the ones above were collected by my Shaman housemate. Same fields but she always gives back to the earth what she takes so maybe thats why she found so many perfect lookin libs! Just a few minutes up from our house. We live at the foot of a mountain.
I'm totally with you on the cuppa soup ROA tho! BIG TIME! %)
Might just have a wee magic cuppa soup tonight!

Right, Friday + the upcoming week is basically my only chance this year of getting some picking done.
There are 2 or 3 places I'm thinking of going: Hopefully one each day.
The first is a lovely hill with human and animal presence. Some fields on it are used as farm crops but most are left for the wildlife. It is approximately 200m, mostly grass or bracken-y kind of stuff and is very much in the wind.
The second is the fields around this hill. I think a lot of them are open to hikers but some i know are strictly off limit farm fields. Most fields have fairly well kept grass as far as I'm aware and haven't ever actually scouted these fields but were suggested by my newb friends who I'm picking with after they heard my description of whats needed.
The third is the woodland near the above areas, been there when i was 8. They are big and i think the trees are coniferous. This is all I know I'm afraid.
The fourth is the woodland and fields around my area. The woodland is deciduous, starting to lose leaves. Woodchipping paths are basically area but there is plenty of floor space between trees with ferns and stuff that is easily accessible. There isn't much traffic through the woods but it's next to a fairly busy main road. The fields have sheep and cows and horses in, plenty of poop about most are fairly scruffy long grass with some nice sites.
Since there is a cold spell coming up and this is the only time i can pick probably all year, where do you think sounds best? I was thinking #1 and #4.
Also, none of us will be able to dry out in the air so were thinking about making an alcohol tincture kind of thing.
My plan was to just put them all (in all honesty I'm doubting we'll get much) in a litre bottle with about 500ml 50% smirnoff vodka. All of them still wet. I don't know when we're planning on dosing. I was hoping in the coming week but it looks like it's going to be cold and i tend to dislike tripping in the cold so a long term store would be good as well.
Any ideas? I'm not sure how I can make it so that we aren't consuming much fungal matter, just psilocX. I also don't want to be drinking much alcohol with it, probably 150ml vodka tops, so an evaporation would be good but would the active ingredients denature in light or warmth?
So many questions, probably should have planned this earlier....
Thoughts?

The alcohol idea is a fucking good one.
I'm sure (well, not very sure actually cos it was ages ago) i used about 1500 shrooms in a litre of raki....
wet shrooms, podger them up a bit in the bottom of a mixing bowl...pour the raki/vodka (rake is good as it has such a strong flavour it masks the shroom taste incredibly well)
cover in clingfilm.
Every day, couple of times a day, get a potato masher and mash the lot really hard...
leave it for a week or so, remembering your daily podgerings.
Decant through a filter...again, really squeeze and press the pulp, a muslin square can help, wrap the pulp in the muslin, and squeeeeze and mangle all the juice out into a filter....
Fucking good, the alcohol seems to carry the psilocybin into your system very quickly and effectively.
And to all intents and purposes it looks like a bottle of spirits.
You can probably do something with the pulp too, I suppose it depends how many shrooms you find.

a shot of strong tasting spirits, down in one, no bits in it.
Or a fucking plate of brown apple sauce to try and gag down, bits of grass, fibrous stalks, the lot in it.
I'll take the raki please.

its a fucking brilliant ROA, I had a half sized whisky bottle of it at a party at the West Indian Centre in Coventry once, just giving people swigs of it on the danceflooor.....
wild shit.

Not all West Indjuns are Yardies. Was the best venue in Cov for a long time mid-90's, ganja friendly, no trouble, good techno and dnb systems used to put nights on there....
Bosh were fucking amazing. %)

ok so 'aztecan tequila' straight from the corner shop sounds like it will do the job, being all aztec and stuff.
Lets say I put 30g wet shrooms in, what kind of yield should I expect over 3 days stewing?
And whats the thought on best locations?

you'll need a lot more shrooms than that or you'll be pissed before the fun starts.
if you put 30g in, you'll yield 30g, I don't get your question
assume 20 glugs from a bottle of spirits....add however many shrooms you consider to be 20 doses.

i just did, thats why.
I didnt want them to "soak up" the spirit. I now realise this was flawed logic.
And they are easier to maccerate.
I'd probably dry and powder them if i was going to do it now.

not long, I dunno how long it would have kept, i remember finishing the bottle with a mate on Boxing Day, playing with me new Christmas Fairy light controlbox, and spending far too long in fucking stitches about the SClub7 calendar me missis had bought me for Christmas.
So it keeps for 2-3 months anyway.

A friend of mine just called me today and said he's run into a load of em, him and a mate only covered a few meters of ground but there's apparently a whole field of them, i may even go picking some with him later in the week 
I've done fly agaric before but not liberty caps, which these ones must be, comparing them to pictures and all that.
He says that the black goo on them says something about their potency? How much of that is true?
