yeah they are purple ringers. if you look on the stalk you will actually see a purple skirt looking flap on it. good find. take a couple tea bags and some sugar and your shrooms and boil them for about 4 minutes then strain it all and drink about half of it and then sip on it wait 45 mins and you will be trippin balls. i just did it about 5 months ago it was too extreme for me compared to when i was 18 and could handle them better
I was planning on making tea. I got a chunk of ginger to go in it to help keep the stomach discomfort down.

lucky, my garden is sucking this year, i do have two baby dwarf cantaloupe's little smaller than my fist, and a watermelon plant still growing, and a few baby watermelon plants i started late, no tomatoes yet, no cucumbers yet (their doing the worst of any plants), strawberries barely producing... but its been hot and i've been slacking on weeding and taking care of my plants...

Wait a minute, get a positive ID on them. A POSITIVE ID. they have to bruise blue, there are other kinds of mushrooms that have purple spore prints and I believe one of them is a galarina. You do not want to eat galarina if you intend to have your liver for the rest of your life. Now it looks from the pictures like these are the real thing but you can't gell from bits of dried mushrooms, you have to take the location where they were picked, the grouping and some fresh samples in order to be sure. As I have said before, so far as I know, every mushroom that bruises blue (actual indigo blue) and has a brownish purple spore print is a member of the psylocibin community and is harmless (well, as much as any magic mushroom is harmless). But do your research. If you do have the real thing then take care of your newly found patch and it will yield for you for many years.

They bruise blue. Characteristics: light brown caps, dark brownish-purple spore print, blue bruising on caps and stems, growing on/around weathered cow piles, growing during the growing season in a state where P. Cubensis are known to grow, found a few days after a good rain.

What do you think? I also posted the first batch in the shroomery ID forum and got a go from a "trusted identifier." Can you see the bruising in the first pic?

I can see the bruising, but i cant tell the color, if you can tell the color, then your totally good to go. cause those look identical to our species here.

They're blue. It's very similar in color to the three mushrooms I grew last year on a pf cake. It's just that little thought of "these might be remotely possibly poisonous" is gonna be in my head, damnit.

i can tell they are purple ringers at least what i seen in the pics. ive been mushroom hunting for years. they grow on cow shit and you know where you picked them from. you wont find them on logs or anything only on cow shit.

I was checking some fences when I stumbled upon what appeared to be P.Cubensis. They were in a cow pasture and everything about them seems legit but mushrooms are scary. I posted in the ID section at the shroomery hoping for some answers but of course I had to show the brethren here.
btw i am very familar with these and ive consumed probably thousands of these

I concur. Best however to do a sample amount, under half a gram or so. Just to make sure, if they give you any sorts of alterations then you are home free. I don't know of a single variety of phylosybe that is poison. Darth is right, they sure look like the real thing.

nah if their blue, there not poisonous :) I mean they seriously look identical, the only thing that had me is i couldn't confirm color via internet.. but you can confirm color just by looking at them. so your good to go bro. enjoy.

I think I over did things a bit.:shock: It was a mind fuck of a trip. Closed eye visuals were pretty strong. I couldn't make sense of my computer screen. Forgot I had eaten mushrooms once or twice. Time was going so slow. Shit got intense for a little while. I had to piss and I was looking at my dick like "I use this for pleasure?" I can't remember it all but I did take a xanax about an hour in because it was getting to be a bit much.

I don't know how much I took, but I used some lemon juice and made some tea that I drunk on an empty stomach. It started to hit in 15 minutes and peaked quickly. Not exactly a pleasurable trip but I did feel pretty accomplished for making it through without freaking the fuck out.
