Welcome. Fall is upon us! I’ve been picking my own as well as guinea pigging for people for at least 18 years.
Species I have picked on Vancouver Island include
- Psilocybe pelliculosa (Conifer Psilocybes)
Found in cut blocks, sides of roads up mountains near cut blocks. Grows out of the dirt.
- Psilocybe semilanceata (Liberty Caps)
Found in cow fields, grows on blades of dead grass
- Psilocybe stuntzii (Blue ringers) no pic
Found in one field ever. Growing in healthy grass. No signs of liberty Caps for miles. - Psilocybe azurescens
Found in a few different fields.
I’ve already found some Psilocybin mushrooms on the north end of Vancouver Island. I haven’t identified them yet, they are smaller than Liberty Caps and were growing from dead grass blades on the side of the road. But it’s definitely a good one.
I’ll post more later
