    Harvest Ethics

    I have definitely considered this, but I have seen areas that were ridiculously flush one year and absolutely absent for years after, with no overharvesting whatsoever, and have heard this echoed anecdotally many times. I believe that mycelia will send up fruit if and when they see fit, and that just because you found them somewhere once is by no means a guarantee you will find them there again, regardless of conducive environmental conditions. They are very different to trees in that respect imo, and are largely invisible, and capable of developing into huge networks. If they have any modicum of consciousness then perhaps they pick and choose where they will reveal themselves, and perhaps even to whom...

    Unsure of some of this stash...

    What Glaukus said. You've got 9 or so old ones to be sure there - looks like they have seen some sun and rain for at least 2 days me thinks. More mature as you rightly say. Slice them down the middle to check for maggots in the cap where it meets the stem. The purple spore colour can be found on cubes that are in a clutch with others or straight up on their own as apparently they can somehow generate their own wind believe it or not, cbf finding a link to back that up though. Worth remembering that with cubes one of the most defining features is the veil remnant which is the dark fringe around the stem half to three-quarters of the way up. Always best to leave them in the ground if you are taking pics though, because of course no-one around here would actually ingest them

    Harvest Ethics

    I reckon mushrooms in particular are an offering of the mycelium. They are put up for reproductive purposes of course, but that spore release happens quickly, and then they are literally there for the taking. I think their internal dialogue is one which revolves around fishing metaphors in terms of nervous systems to play with edit: In terms of disturbing environs, etc. the mushrooms want their spores transported far and wide, so by simply being in their vicinity you are doing their bidding, so in their case I would say disturbance is necessary and perhaps invited to a certain extent, particularly given they can amend soil/colony damage fairly easily in most cases as it's in their nature to do so.

    Cheers mate! Found my first cubes of the season today, with still a smattering of pans in the shadows. A bit dry still though, but the heavens will open again next week, so look to the paddocks yo!

    Thanks man. Word of mouth is where it's at Got a couple of cyans the other day, but had a peek this morning and still need a couple of soaking days yet before those cubes start poking up around my way. Some old cubes and pans but: https://photos.app.goo.gl/hiYqbhUapFhEhBDs5

    Mate, if you have ordered it last week then it is on its way. Sent out a whole lot today so hopefully one of them is yours! If you ordered yesterday or today then I will be sending them out next Tuesday. I usually use Sendle, but a few have to go via Aust Post, especially if you have a PO Box. Peace!

    I don't often see cubes with veil remnants the size of this one up my way. Holy cow!

    Psilocybin Mushrooms of SE QLD, Australia

    Saw some decent size cubes yesterday found in the Southern Hinterland of the Sunny Coast, but still too dry for them where I am, which is a bit elevated, and the water table needs much more rain yet to support them. Pans, well that's another story... https://photos.app.goo.gl/MEbLUzPW1fTpgREs7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/e8HhC2G32ofc3eJ88

    Mate, I reckon you would need another 200ml at least if it has been super dry. Gotta have that squelch underfoot, with that water table just under the surface

    Pan. cyans grow out of goat poo!! https://photos.app.goo.gl/14VnKuSQ67s9qt7UA https://photos.app.goo.gl/pVheXA6RCmurxVnT8 Seems to really increase the bluing reaction when compared to cow poo...

    Yeah handfuls of pans, but no cubes yet. The water table is still much too low up here. Need another good 100mls or so I reckon, and a little tweak of the temps before we enter the cube game yet.

    I'm assuming a correlation with night time lows, and I tend to look for >20 degrees celcius on average. I've seen cyans today, so I would like to make a tentative opening call to the season in SE QLD. Should see at the very least pan. antillarum and a few parasols over the next few days
  21. Well it's here - the book I've been working on for the past 12 months: Psilocybin Mushrooms of South East Queensland, Australia: Eliminating the Harms https://www.responsiblechoice.com.au/product/psilocybin-mushrooms-of-south-east-queensland-the-book/ 8 x 10″, with a combination of coated 300 gsm covers and Satin-Coated 128gsm internal pages. 168 pages, with 40 full-colour pages, including detailed photos to aid identification. Enjoy, and happy hunting! RC

    It looks like the Sunny Coast is going to get a bit of a drenching over the next week or so, and the soil temps should be about right, so I reckon it might be worth a squiz in the mix there somewhere. If you are new to foraging think about paddocks, etc. that might be potential habitats now, before the rain comes, so you have a bit of a plan of action. If you aren't on property see if there are a couple of local farmers who wouldn't mind if you have a wander around sans cattle for a carton or some such.

  24. Dude, I was as surprised as you are I was actually asking to use his multi criterion analysis graphs from the Lancet in the book, to which his mates at Drugscience.org said "No wukkas, just reference it", which I did. I then decided to just 'hit him up' as it were, and offered to send the proof through. Strangely enough he got back a day later and said "Sure!". Blew. My. Mind. Fast forward a month or so and he flicks me back that little gem bro. Never know until you try. Thanks for the kind words @Horus, big love to you bro.
