Mushroom season 2008.

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, the magic mushrooms pies are just a gimmick - the locals are cashing in on the town's reputation, and have named their cafe accordingly - with the specialty being their 'magic mushroom pies' - though the ingredients are nothing more than portabello's, shitake and gravy... :P

Undergrounder - I did in fact gather a small handful of gyms just so I didn't come home empty handed, with the intent of eating a few, but I got cold feet and didn't end up trying them - just can't bring myself to eat them after what I have read from other's 'lack' of an experience and bitter taste.

These were found in WA.

You're joking right? >5cm? Wow, break out the party hats & tooters!

5cm isn't the biggest cap i've seen, I just meant that a fair majority tend to be over that size.. and their heights are impressive too! We get much less but our subs are much more photogenic! :D

much depends more on specific location though. Lotsa sa subs are puny too.

Yes i drink VB, have done for about 15 odd years now so no point tryin to tell me how shit you think it is lads an ladettes. If telling me my choice in beer is shit makes your choice of beer taste better, then go for it, im not here to argue.

I see people get very passionate about their beer!

Nice mushroom passive, that would almost be a meal for two....

It's only an entree for one! :lol:

Indeed, nice find, it's always pleasing to find the big ones.

Depends on how your head is I suppose.. But 2 dry grams of subs these days would send me to the moon.... :blink:

Hehehe...

I have never picked a wild mushroom, mainly because I have no idea what is what and i'm too scared to.

But...

I travel the mountains daily, and if these pics are what to look for, these things are EVERYWHERE. Sometimes, it's hard to not step on them coz there's so many.

Sorry. :P

There's some really good spots along the railway line at Leura, blaxland rd and falls rd wenty falls... East Blackheath... and while your there, park your car somewhere along the road on the way to megalong valley and check out the rainforests down the southwest side of mt blackheath.

Some very nice scenary in these parts.

Shit, they're friggn EVERYWHERE guys.

That said, I still wouldn't eat one of these mushrooms these days. I had a little too much perspective ~10 years ago and enjoy having a clear head.

Someone should really start a thread here on what to eat for fun, what to eat for yum, and what to leave in nature. REALLY! It might save someone's life.

Maybe you get a stronger variety, but it takes my grandma at least four grams, usually around five, to get some serious space exploration happening.

That's interesting. I have a small penis and find three grams enough. Clearly there is a correlation.

cool... I have a huge penis and find 0.8g plenty for a good trip. If you all post your penis length in inches and your standard dose in grams, i'll calculate the correlation coefficient and turn it into a study...
