spiders Posted April 26, 2006 As in Copelandias? Are they sterile? Ive never seen those with white/pale gills. They usually go black pretty early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
planthelper Posted April 26, 2006 my knowledge of shrooms is limited. my books say copelandias have been moved into the group of panaeolus. anyway this is a local strain (inland of rockhampton) which just grew out of the manure deposited in my friends garden, guess that makes them non sterile. i will watch out for gill color... maybe they were white because they were very young specimens, anyhow they darkend fast after being picked. if people are interrested than i will try to produce "as sterile as posssible" prints...

Jack Posted April 27, 2006 We went to a couple of patches this morning a did reasonably well.. waiting for more rain and cold then we will be in business :saufen2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spiders Posted April 27, 2006 pans rock for growing - if someone was tempted to do the forbidden... Not I ofcourse... They seem to have a lower moisture content and go down easier than meaty cubensis. And ofcourse the potency rocks. They actually dry to the consistency of human hair - weird but still mildly active.

foolsbreath Posted April 27, 2006 Its cold here, just not wet Rain booked in for the next couple of days so........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wisemonkey Posted April 30, 2006 Have found subs in Fitzroy & Geelong. Both areas well watered so had advantage but I think the rain in Melb the last couple of days should really help the season kick off. Remember kids be good to the patches you harvest.

ballzac Posted April 30, 2006 (edited) I went to a few patches yesterday, and there were heaps of mature ones, but they had dried out and then gotten wet the previous night and had a lot of gnat larvae and even mature gnats in them.
