  1. Pictures away, first up we got the shroom with it's spores IMG_20180227_234923.thumb.jpg.8b178d2979678cdf1c0f2cf8f93d0c07.jpg spores didn't come out too well,  I'm guessing because of the cap shape? And also it wasn't there very long.

     

    Next up comparisons with a tasty looking cube IMG_20180227_235134.thumb.jpg.43f7ca40d68d97b8758b4e82cbc43da3.jpg IMG_20180227_235159.thumb.jpg.2eb27cbe9ebb06cc0a2dc928685d9600.jpg 

    and then the cubes sporesIMG_20180227_235451.thumb.jpg.cee1fbfe41359c7cdd1052ae6a7ae099.jpg

     

    After taking another look at it I'm starting to think it might just be a different looking cube, still looking for your opinions though.

  2. I was going to continue on my previous post but I clicked that best answer tick thingo, so new post even though it's sort of the same question.

     

    Anyway went picking again today, found some cubes and once again a mystery shroom, what could it be I wonder. I'm pretty sure its not a sub as it was growing from cow pat, I just wanted to keep the title.

     

    I'll upload pics including spore pics soon, they're still printing at the moment, in the mean time details: cap golden somewhat faded now to a browny colour and the shape is quite oval, gills tan browny colour unlike the purplish black from the cubes, and of course bruised blue. :)

     


  3. I have some passiflora edulis IMG_20180227_140723.thumb.jpg.6e97c5eb9f0af5361e4ed51f00f21bd9.jpg growing and i read it can be used as a sedative and also a maoi, ive already had some experience with passiflora incarnata that I bought from shaman australias ;)

     

    However ive never prepared passiflora before so i was wondering how much of the flower you can use, I've already picked off the squiggly bits and the petals but there seems to still be a lot of flower left and I don't want it to go to waste IMG_20180227_144638.thumb.jpg.b6a58ebb48532e984d0974e708cfd2df.jpg the lower petals seem to be connected to green stemy bits, I was wondering if you could still use them, also what about the bits at the front where to pollen is stored. Thanks in advance :)

  4. Copelandia seems likely however the colour of the cap still makes me a bit unsure, guessing the colour varies alot though. anyway heres a comparison to a cube i also found today sublocubllo.thumb.jpg.2368f167c378ff588cc056a402906c80.jpg

  5. went hunting for subaeruginosa today, on the way walked through a cow field and found a whole bunch of cubes, i ended up finding this little guyshromlo.thumb.jpg.f7bdb007edb9f40f121448a20e2a2ac5.jpgshrom.thumb.jpg.c4d677787d8f9ea2b7bfbfbebdd2c8cf.jpghanging out with a patch of cubes, and i seems very subaeruginosary to me, i thought i should get your IDs though as it was growing out of a cow pat, or atleast through a cow pat, and ive never heard of subs doing that before, bruised blue too :)

  6. hey all i know im a bit early in the year for golden teachers, i did some reading and im aware they like late april and may more. however i was wondering if anyones had luck finding them early, ive been hiking around a bit (north-nsw, bellingen area) after some rainfall, havent found any but ive spotted alot of areas that look like they would be growing when the season fully hits


  7. Hey, I'm looking to start helping some bees live in my yard. I have no experience with bees, nor know anything about looking after them. However one thing I do know about them is they're extremely important little helpers and I would like to start helping them so they can in turn continue helping us :)

     

    Looking for any info on beekeeping, plants that they especially like and ways to keep them out of harm. Also I'm unsure if certain bees have preferred climates and locations, I'm in nsw so if there's a certain species that would prefer this kind of area I'm looking for some info on that too. Thanks in advance, cheers
