Sup people, first post!

Anyway I'm in Australia and it's winter here at the moment, and hence, mushie season :)
I've been meaning to go on a hike up a bushy mountain near where I live but just need to know the ideal time to do it to find the mushrooms. I know that after rain is a good idea, but how long after rain? Straight after? While it's raining?

It hasn't rained here in about a week so am I better off waiting for it to rain again or what?

Generally it's been pretty cold and miserable here (canberra) lately, and we have had a lot of rain so far in the past couple of months.

Also not entirely sure where I should be looking on the ground. We don't have any cow pastures around here so the cow-shit option doesn't apply. Would around the bases of trees be the go? If so, what kind of tree or does it not matter?

Sorry for asking so many questions but it's really cold and I want to spend as little time trudging around outside as possible :P

Any help appreciated!

I guess we should start to have some joy in WA with all this rain the past week. :-)

Has any one ever looked for / found anything within 100km radius of Perth?

Petrol is expensive and the southwest is far...
 
I've happily stumbled across a few baby patches so far....shall wait and, with the mushrooms blessings, pick :)

Half, if not more, of the fun is the finding. Like gold. But fungus. :D
 
COULD THIS BE THE ANSWER TO ALL OUR DREAM of night shrooooommmiiinnngg. I think this technique would work directly on the shrooms themselves....lol...thankyou Mr forensic police scientist...We couldn't have done better if we tried

Not all molecules exhibit chemiluminescence. But mix psilocin with acidic potassium permanganate and psilocybin with ruthenium and magic happens.

Anastos says the technique can detect extremely low levels of psilocin, making it the most sensitive test there is and the first time chemiluminescence has been applied to magic mushrooms.

"In the literature there's quite a few pieces published on the analysis of psilocin and psilocybin in magic mushrooms but the analysis time is quite long in some of them," she says.

"We wanted a rapid method to detect these alkaloids. To date it's the most sensitive method published."

Anastos soaked ground up samples of mushroom in methanol and separated the chemical components using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) before running the chemoluminescence test.

LOL

Scientists and researchers are getting pretty fukin bored thesedays.

^ Yeah - thanks Nicole.... bitch.

look on the bright side...we can apply this in the field to identify the good shrooms. If we could we find a colour test for death caps then we are in business, all problems solved
 
a colour test is not required for death caps. anyone that eats one thinking its magic is just proving Darwin's theory.

sadly there is no bright side to this story just a fuckass overacheiver wittling away at our freedom...
 
Whats going on hunters? Any updates on finds?

Thinking about checking the patch but such a mission...how do these temps look for the week? Showers for most of the week..im in SEQ aswell... Is it worth going for a look?

maximum 19°C 20°C 20°C 19°C 19°C 20°C 21°C
minimum 7°C 9°C 11°C 11°C 12°C 11°C 11°C
 
Mates got like 50 yesterday and I was meant to have a trip with them, at the last minute one of my mates who was meant to be tripping and me decided we didn't feel like feeling nauseas for a few hours.

Let the other 3 go on their journey and just stayed in smoking cones, semi regret it now. Does anybody else feel like they have to force themselves to enjoy mushrooms these days because the body load sucks?

I used them a lot when I first discovered them with no problems, but these days every time I do them I get so sick.
