2004 Mushroom season( Victoria)

What can you do?

This a harm minimisation website, and online mshroom ID's (whilst being dodgy and hardly accurate) are probably doing more good than bad at the moment.

If a person is going to go out and pick without doing any research, post for an ID and then ignore the warnings that come back, then that person deserves the shit they bring upon themselves. That just proves that even without having posted here, ID or no, they would have eaten their supposed "magic" mushrooms.

Two mates and I blundered off into the bush 3 years ago with a belly full of MDMA and literally no knowledge of psilocybe mushies to find the "magic ones". We ID'd them based on what we had bought of DD's before (Mushed, wet, black tiny looking mushrooms 8)). 8 hours later I was in an expensive ambulance and spent the night in emergency.

I feel having been hunting successfully several times now, that I am quite comfortable with eating what I have picked. This is only because I have listened to what everybody here has had to say re: bruising, habitat, spore prints and spending hours researching and reading everything I could find on the net. I am extremely cautious now after having my bad experience and will not hesitate to throw a mushroom out if I have the slightest inkling of doubt in regards to it's authenticity. I have learnt MY lesson.

But the fact remains inexperienced people WILL pick. That passion and thirst for the mushie trip will compell them no matter what. I think the best we can do is try and reduce the likelihood of somebody getting hurt. :\

That's just my 2 cents. . .

Oh and I'm going picking again tomorrow, got a new spot all lined up =D
 
Theyre still out there just very light (almost white) coloured. From my experience they do lose a little potency but thats to be expected because theyve lost a little moisture being out in the sun for a few days (also breaks down psilocin). Not to worry tho its supposed to rain tommorow and cool down towards the weekend.

I have found that there is resistance to the idea of buying and selling shrooms here in Australia...I have found that people are willing to give away shrooms but not to selling them. The sentiment is that drugs should be free and mushies are the only free drug left, and turning them into a commodity isn't cool.

I agree with this, but on the other hand I would like to be able to buy mushies without running the risks that inexperienced picking entails.

Yeah, the whole, only give away mushrooms thing is kind of prevalent, but its kind of annoying too. Because I've met a few hippies against selling mushrooms that have a stash, they claim that you should only give away mushrooms, but then , they dont give anyway away cause they dont wanna give their mushies away for free. They agree they'd part with them for a cash trade, but its against they're morals so they dont. so it just ends up being damn hard to aquire them without going out and picking.

I dont see anything wrong with selling them, I mean fuck, if you spend 10 hours out hunting and sell 2 hours worth of picking for $20, seems fair to me.
 
You have to think about the legal implications of selling as well. Im not sure how "giving away for free" goes down in a court of law but selling would probably be more serious.

I just find it interesting the difference in persectives between america and Australia. I have met people that have the same belief "you cant sell mushrooms its bad KAARRMAA" or something. Surely a "hippie" doesnt have heaps of money for petrol and the like. How are they going to recoup the cost of driving around looking for them?

EDIT: Im not trying to diss any group of people (I have allot of repect for), I just find it facinating to hear this sentiment again and again from people who know how much time and money can go into finding a yummy patch of fungi

I think it has to do with the difference between Australian and American cultures...

Microsoft Word doesn't recognise the word 'commodification'...as though the process of turning something into a commodity makes no sense to a culture where everything is a commodity already.
 
Praise Allah for the rain! I even found a new patch today, just ate half a dozen just waiting for them to come on... =D =D =D
 
^^^ I just found some too. . . .gonna drink the shit out of them ARRR HAH HAH HAH!!!!!!!

So here's my question, I've got dried mushies and a couple of wet ones I just picked. If I chop the dry ones and the wet ones and stick them together in the tea and drink all the water and the refuse, will it still work, or do I have to do something different with the dried ones. Logic tells me it should make no difference, so long as they are not boiled.

Any takers?
 
I wish I had a wide angle lense.........

Yeah first one looked too brown, second too red. . .I've only seen the brown ones before though. That red one is new to me. . .

Any info on whether I can stick wet and dry shrooms in tea together?
 
OK:
1st ALL SUBS HUNDREDS OF THEM!!!
2nd ALL SUBS HUNDREDS OF THEM!!!
3rd ALL SUBS HUNDREDS OF THEM!!!
4th Photo: 1 Sub (Left) 1 Stropharia (Right)
5th Photo: No Subs Dont know what they are.

Yep they are kind of brown but it has been raining heavily this makes them quite brown in colour. I have picked in this spot before and they are unusualy fat and heavy but they are REALY potent and blue all over when picked!!!

Munted: Your right mixing the wet and dry shrooms so long as you know they are the right sort!! They will do the same thing to you wet or dry or a mix of the two.
 
Thanks Mongman, I thought so. I couldn't see how it would make a difference.

I am 100% sure they are the right ones. I wouldn't be eating them if I wasn't! =D Oooh shit they're kicking in. . .i better go sit down!
 
Man, OMFG that was an amazingly intense trip. I had to vomit halfway through, anybody else had that? It wasn't nice, vomiting was seriously a gross experience on shrooms. For anybody worried though, it isn't poisoing I feel fine now and no runny crap :) all good. . .

I seriously underestimated the potency of dried shrooms. Chopped 7 medium sized with stalks and put 2 massive fresh specimens I found today into tea. I only got to the 2nd extraction, (just drank the third ;)) and foundit waaaay too much. Previously I could find respite in a trip, however this time, it was all around, I couldn't find a peaceful spot anywhere.

A little understanding of limits and a healthier repsect for shrooms has resulted. Wow!

Anyway, I found this sub today in the bush. . . .a full 8cms across the top of the cap. . . .a beautiful thing indeed!!! More rain and more hunting again this friday =D
 
If you are only weighing grams you don't need great accuracy, so perhaps you should invest in a 0.1g balance?
 
I have no scales. Last time I checked they were like $300 to get them accurate to 0.1 of a gram. . .

Is there a cheaper alternative now?
 
Nothing more fun than pukeing when your triping HARD. You dont know what is spew and what is wierd stuff floating around you vision. Its REALY funny!!
 
^ 0.1 accuracy scales can cost as little as $100 from drug paraphernalia shops / sex stores...possibly even cheaper if you buy them online. Their accuracy and longevity is debatable, but for mushrooms they should do the trick (at least to the point of you not barfing). Since you're not paying for the mushies, a one off of about $100 is a good investment :)

Pretty sure I've seen threads re. scales prices floating around, might be worth doing a search.
