>>633806It maybe have already been present in the alder bark. Stamets has posited (in Mycelium Running, I think) that the wood-loving psilocybes are spread so widely because landscaping businesses have sold colonized woodchips. Even if it's not true, it's a great idea...
>>633777>>633800There are definitely lookalikes-- some deadly poisonous (see Galerina autumnalis). I find them pretty frequently in the same beds as psilocybes. To really be safe, I recommend hunting with people who know and learning from them.
Today's haul-- about a half-pound of P. allenii and P. cyanescens. Life is good.
