One of the slides said that there's a wide variety of psilocybin-containing mushrooms in Australia. Compared to where? The Arctic? :-) Definitely not compared to North America. Or South America. Or Asia. And I think Europe has more species.
Just found the channel & watched the video. Thankyou for sharing. What are some good websites that record what species people have found in certain locations? Thankyou :)
@@giuliogreco1728 north tassie, only way I can think of is that bugs have chewed their way up and down the stem to make them hollow in ones I've found. I've also found some that don't have hollow stems too.
Great video Simon thankyou, can you provide any information an the strength of the psilocybin in the different mushrooms and their stage of growth. Cheers 😀
If it's got a tall (12cm) thin (5mm) woody fibrous strong white stem, golden brown top with nipple (7cm wide), brown purple gills, hard to pull out of ground, no remnant for the veil/annulus, some mild hardly visible corregation down stem, after picking the gills can become somewhat visible through from top of cap on edges, found in riparian wet schlerophil gippsland forest in winter, correct spore print but will not bruise blue instead it bruises a jet black with zero bluing . It is not a Sub right or is it? The distinct lack of bluing concerns me.
Subeariginosa can be extremely potent, so remember the importance of set and setting, it can make a huge difference to your experience.....have a good trip.

Where can i get dna testing done in Australia?
36.18 I thought that psilocybe azurescens was the strongest known in terms of psychoactive compound concentration.
@@CheckOutBushy maybe contact MCYOmmunity (who were partners in Melbourne's recent Mushroom day events); myco.org.au/

_Ps. cyanescens_ is not the most potent _Psilocybe_ --- that would be _Ps. azurescens._ So _Ps. subaeruginosa_ is at best the 3rd most potent.
What a comprehensive and detailed guide! Thanks for sharing :)
You're very welcome!
Such a guru!! Thanks for your expertise Symon!! ❤
This was a beauty. Such great important content. Go Simon and APS!!
Can tell you’re very experienced Simon, thanks for taking time out of your day to do this. I learnt a lot! Very keen to go hunting.
Cheers this is honestly the most useful video ive found

Thank you very much for this video
Greatly appreciate talk
great work simon
13:28 subaeruginosa do have hollow stems, im surprised Symon got this wrong. unless he's talking about something else.
Really? Where abouts are you located I'm around south east melb never ran into any even remotely hollow stems

Very informative,thanks mate
Crazy! I've been out picking Amanita Muscaria cos that's all I can ID.
Cheers mate good video
Thank you!!!
Bravo Fantastic lecture !
Great video Simon where can we get the slides

Where is the right forum for Victorians to send some pics for id?
Also, a good rule...
If in doubt, chuck it out
Bluing can take up to an hour to appear?
Good video mate
Good stuff Symon
Botanic Gardens in Orange NSW chock full of
Hey guys great video. Is there anyway to contact Simon to ask some questions. Cheers

I did a spore print today. It is blue but the stalk doesn’t bruise blue.
a spore print is generally dark purple/almost black ..very different to the blue staining visible on the fruiting body itself
That was good
What are some Fb groups about this for Victoria?
Pmanz
Anyone in Sydney's west want to take me out for a lesson in identifying?
If you want a laugh, turn on the sibtitles
Ignore that post just heard it in your
can I come mushroom hunting with you?
Seriously.Can I come too?
what happens if you put a poisonous mushroom into a big bag of ones you want? does that make your bag bad and you need to throw it away??
Cyanescens grows on wood not dung.
there are both Panaelus Cyanescens that grow on dung and Psilocybe Cyanescens that grow on wood (the word simply means 'becoming dark blue').
