scottish mushy season is officially open! :D

Migrated topic.
I guess this year, everything is different... rhododendron blossoms.. AGAIN! (2nd time this year!) and people found boletus in june (!)

So maybe I should have a look at my famous meadow a few months earlier this year ...hmm..
 
That'll feckin dae nicely.

Time tae get the walkin bits oan and get oot an visit the many nice shroom fields that I live next tae.


Happy days

think we might need some Scottish - English translation on some of the posts for the people that "dinnae ken the patter":lol: :lol: :lol:
 
You definitely need to get your hands on Stamet's book definitely as mentioned before. Dreamer got it as an e-book from a nice person at the mytocopia forum. I think it says if it has a purple/black spore print AND bruises blue, it's probably a psilocybin and worthy of further identification. If not, all but the expert should stay away. Also says that liberty caps don't bruise quite as much as others though, but to not let your enthusiasm get the better of you.
 
whoop! just nabbed me 300 plus liberty caps in a couple hours of hill trekage.

I'm sooo damn happy :D its the year we've been waiting for.. take full advantage fellows!

peace
 
Sweet camakazi!! i'll need to get back out there and get me some lovelies :D
 
Oh man, you dudes are making me jelous!!

Im an utter n00b at picking libs and this is my first season that il try and find some.
Took a little mission out into the country the other day and found nothing:(

Im hoping il find my first liberty caps soon.
 
They seem to take ages to come out down south.

None were found around where I am until late november last year, but usually it's around late october for the larger yields.
 
I still have around 60gr. since last year :)
I usually only go picking every second year. I always pick so much that it lasts me two years at least.

ok i think ive identified these shrooms i picked Panaeolus olivaceus - Wikipedia

Anyone agree?

Ive seen them ones before, I thought the only psychedelic mushrooms you got here was libs and cyanescens till the other day and someone told me, you going to take them, would love to hear some reports of to me unheard mushrooms.

I got 300 odd libs had ana amazing combo of 2ci and mushrooms the other day was excellent! My friend knows a good patch, he says its not a matter of wether well get any more a matter of how long you can be bothered picking|! Sounds great!
 
ok these arnt libs. but they are mushrooms in scotland :roll: so i thought id post them here
just taken earlier today.

i never took any mate not my cup of tea right now. however i could divulge the location to you.

its preyyt public. alot of them were out the ground, i guessed dogs. but the pics wer nice lookin young 1s, so a guess they would be good to go soon, i have no idea how fast they develope.
 
ach its cool man.. its looks too public for my liking as well.

damn its a good season this year, some of those flyagaric look massive... and the liberty caps are out in force, i picked another 200 on sunday in no time at all.

picked for 2 hours today( finished work early) and got around 160. im quite chuffed, thats well enough for me.

tho if i had more time i would have picked mucho more for storage. big B said yous are planning a good day long hunt. if its the weekend i might be up for it.

when i said its quite public i meant = easy to find. not dodgy or anything. they arnt illegal in the uk so you are
free to pick them if you wish. ha i was lying down on the grass next to the road and alsorts getting the pics lol.

Cobler road milngavie five big birch trees. jammin.
 
No their definately illegal, even picking them. Though im pretty sure you can eat them out the ground legally lol Ive had a great year so far got 500 odds, missed the boat on great spot but im still happy :)
