-RC- Posted December 30, 2020 Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katu Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 RC's book is well written, well researched, and beautifully presented. Congrats mate, it looks like a hell of a lot of work went into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 2, 2021 Author Share Posted January 2, 2021 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats mate, it looks like a hell of a lot of work went into it. I couldn't agree more. Not only is it an an excellent guide to psilocybin mushrooms (of SE Queensland), it contains some real gems of wisdom expressed ever so eloquently. I particularly resonated with a paragraph on page 148. "Morality..." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 13, 2021 Author Share Posted January 13, 2021 If you have given it a thought, defo get out there and have a look. You may be a day early or late, but you are highly likely to see something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-RC- Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 There have been some lovely days around the hinterland this season bro. I would wager it is all still happening, but I've probably seen enough now for another year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boof Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Finally had enough rain at my place to go foraging! Heaps of mushrooms about, but not so many of the type I was looking for. If anyone knows what some of the other varieties are, I'd be keen to know. Some were in my front yard.

-RC- Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Those tray pics look like cyans to me (are they the same photo?). Just check for bluing and a jet black spore print Second pic of ones hidden in grass may be cubes, but hard to see veil remnant and purple spore staining.

Boof Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Yeah the tray pic is a duplicate, thought I'd edited it out...and yep, also cyans. And the other phot isn't great for IDing either. You are much more learned on the subject than me, but not cubes I reckon; white veil remnant and white gills? I've never picked cubes because I've never had anyone to show me and I always err on the side of caution because even when I find one that I think might be a winner, I talk myself out of it due to some perceived flaw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Wow, I have heard most people say the opposite: that they find cubes easier Id'ing than pans. If only there was some kind of book recently published that contained just this sort of ID information, with photos of course... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enjaytee Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Hey @Boof the ones in the long grass are c.molybdites and it looks like you have a few different sorts in the tray pic. Toss out anything you are unsure of. I can’t comment on the other short grass and leafy mulch ones.

Yeah yeah, it was raining and I wasn't going to risk my copy.
