Hello Friends,

I was perusing my neighborhood today and noticed that there was a plethora of mushrooms growing everywhere. I, knowing nothing about mushrooms figured I would take a few pictures and see if anyone knew what kind they were. Thanks in advance for the help.

Cheers,
Ryan

ps sorry for the sideways/out of focus pictures, they were taken on a phone.

if they don't have the big frills underneath they are probably poisonous, that's pretty much all i know about them.

mushrooms r one of the touchies(spelling?) subjects ever. best bet is to never touch them. plus in a survival inccident, they virtually have no nutritional value...

If your interested, just go buy a field guide book. Never eat anything before your 100% sure you know what it is.

Mushrooms are good fun.

You never know what you're eating. Some harmless plants mock species' that are deadly so you can't always tell the difference.

Haha that post was just for jokes.

The ones he photo'd don't look like the fatal killahs.

But she's right you never really know.

Like stated before, neither of those are magic if that was what you were hinting at...

The most common type of magic mushroom is the Psilocybe Cubensis.

There are other non-magical shrooms that look VERY similar to the one pictured above. The only way to be able to tell if it is magical is to bruise the stem of the mushroom and give it about 24 hours. If the bruise turns blue, boom, you have magic shrooms. If it doesn't turn blue, don't fuck with it...

The picture below shows dried out Psilocybe Cubensis mushrooms with blue bruise marks.... these ones would be safe to eat and will make you trip.

I ate a mushroom once out of the yard when I was like 3. I got really sick and my parents had to call poison control and give me ipikac or whatever the vomitting medicine is.

you should eat them becuase then 1 of 3 things will happen , you get poisened ( oh well take one for the team) , nothing happens and that was a waste of time or 3 for about 7 hours you watch little munchkins dance around ur feet. i think its worth the risk
