Mushroom Season 2011 UK / Ireland / Anywhere else

just leave the shrooms on some dry paper, the maggots will fuck off out the shrooms as they dry. wouldn't harm you anyway.
 
you can't prevent maggots. seriously, forget about them. they'll do you no harm. I worried about them at first too, thinking I was gonna kill/poison anyone who i shared my shrooms with, but really, it's just another protein source in the end, and that's coming from a vegetarian of 20+ years ;p

but if you really wanna pursue reducing them b'cos they annoy you for whatever reason, then you can get rid of as many as poss by lying them out on brown paper [will post pics of mine in a mo, if i can be arsed after writing this] ... that's the best way to flush the buggers out and so you can actually SEE them as they inevitably crawl their way out of the cap, wondering what the fuck is going on, and then promptly DAI on the the paper due to dehydration/exhaustion/whutthefuckeva. you can pick em off with tweezers from the cap, or paper if you really wanna be anal about it. I have on a couple of occasions. they pretty much work their way out after about an hr of being laid out, in my experience

and if youre gonna start worrying about maggots, really ... there's a fuckton of other shit you should be worrying about first before maggots ... like eating sheep/cow/horse shit, what the flies have eaten and then puked back onto the cap surface, whut's in the soil, and therefore in your shrooms, etc etc ...

my advice? forget about it all. and washing em wont make any difference either. you aren't gonna catch shroom AIDS or CANCER, and I'm still alive, and I've tripped on these things hundreds of times, picked, dried and processed by myself, without too much fannying around being anal. Push all that semi-irrational fear of 'possible, but very-fucking-unlikely' outta your mind and just neck 'em and enjoy :) ... and for the record, I'm a pretty prissy, neurotic specimen most of the time .. I just know from experience, maggots/poop etc wont harm you in this situation

the question of maggots just got me searching through all my old field pics, and drying, and most of them seem to of been taken in early Novemeber. and now Im fucking salivating at just how resourceful this new field I found actually was, and I can't wait for the next few months

I just wolf em down

They don't bother me a bit, i've had maggots on my gob plenty of times when fishing and swallowed a fair few by accident, they won't last long when they meet your stomach acid.

if you're that bothered though, just grow some maggot free cubensis at home.

apparently you can get a tapeworm from eating mushies picked in a field with animals in it.

I don't doubt that for a second. you're right.

...............

in other news, if you wiki what you can get from digesting horsehit, cowshit, sheep shit, flypuke, soil, various associated insects etc etc ... you'll be able to list at least eleventy billion more illnesses/diseases/conditions that it's possible to get from eating mushies picked in a field

much like there's another eleventy billion possible medical/health issues one can acquire from opening a toilet door, walking from a street path onto a road, wiping one's twitching anus after a very satisfying poop in the morning [or afternoon, depends on your cycle] etc etc etc, the list goes on

it's all about calculation. and any experienced, wily, accountable, responsible person [and drug user], will take the time to look these things up for themselves, ask a variety of opinions, and then just make their own decisions, and then base their future choices by rationalising on a mix of all of the above [and something else I havent yet thought of but someone cleverer than me has]. and then will make their own decision based on calculated speculation, and actual experience.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I cant tell if youre posting to take the piss or not

but as Mailmonkey already said, don't boil your shrooms .... EVER.

I have no fucking clue why it's so popular with advice givers cos it's nonsense! it does the opposite of potentiate! [my vocab sucks atm, can't think what the word is]

DO NOT BOIL SHROOMS! even to kill whatever's in there. Either do what whatsons torment advised and grow yer own so you havent gotta worry about that shit, or eat them in something luke-warrm, or chew them blind, but for the love of gawd, don't fucking boil them.

I take em in a coupla inches of dried cuppa soup, with water that's been off the boil for at least 15 minutes, probably more. it goes well with the shroom taste and will help stave off any urges to vomit, b'cos the taste's go well together, and also the soup lines your stomach at the same time helping you keep it down.

no boiling, kthnx! I think the tea thing that's popular & a lot of people advise must be a social thing, but it's certainly not used by people who wanna get the most out of the psylocibe that's for sure

[edit]
your name's lazyscience ... okay ... i geddit ... can't be arsed to go look at your posts of yore to go double check, but if it's humour ... then cool, you duped me ...and I like that ;p ... kudos etc]

Sorry for my total ignorance on this topic, but can you find anything other than liberty caps growing in the UK? I am thinking no... Liberty cap trips seem like they are essentially just a weird, dazed and delirious poisoning of sorts? I was pretty sure they can be bought legally all year round too. I totally understand how fun it would be to go out picking them for free, and being involved in the process though.

I just wanted to clear this up - liberty caps are psilocybin, the same as regular shrooms. Class A

It sounds like you're thinking of amanitas which are not for the inexperienced in any way, and can be bought legally.
 
damn ive been boiling them for years. hope ive not wasted any precious psilocybin. i definetely didnt notice any loss of potency.
 
compared to just eating those pungent little maggoty beauties.

its hard to say though because tea tends to hit you hard and fast which could make it seem more potent.
 
if I put 1000 liberties in a teapot it'd hit me hard and fast. and seem potent.

I sooo want you to be a troll.
 
I have often made tea from them, steeped in just boiled water, I cant say its any different from eating them in the field.
 
one time i made an omelette and i swear it was the most disgusting thing ive ever eaten. im dry boaking just thinking about it.
 
instead of wasting liberties by boiling them to buggery in tea, save em for your next omlette

YOU'LL BE THANKING ME LATER!

;P
 
lol.. a magic-omelette. sounds rough, i've ruined a pizza before with fresh cubensis, thought it would mask the taste. it does not.

with expensive or hard to source drugs i'm all about the most effective route of administration and preparation, but with mushrooms, a drug that you can acquire in large quantities for free on your local golf course or grow in equally large quantities at home in a short time period for next to nothing. the small loss in potency by making them into a tea that i find easier to consume does not bother me a bit.
