mushroom picking

[Bandyspring]

I've found making a tea with said "magical" mushrooms is my preferred way of taking them. It's a 4 second period of bad taste as opposed to the minute of chewing it and getting it stuck in your teeth. That reminds me, it's been almost a year since I've partaken. Might need to track some down.

Which reminds me of the time we got high
smoking bananas.

Although eating half a dozen bananas before bed will give you really bizarre dreams.

Never been on shrooms...i read about it once and they seem really hard to find in the wild without eating a toadtool lol...

I did read how you can raise them yourself, but plants, even near plants like shrooms...hate me.

What a trip! I was just looking at a book on wild mushroom picking...then I was at O'Hare and they had a display on the subject, and now this!

I would really like to do something like this, particularly in the Pacific NW (where I am), and certainly with people who know what they are doing.

Cheers.

What, like magic mushrooms or food mushrooms?

I know my psychoactive plants quite well, but my knowledge of fungi is kind of lacking... where do you go to learn to identify them?

Back in the day I did just about every drug known to man. One of my
favorite class of drugs was the hallucinogens. I've done peyote, acid,
THC, and the psilocybin mushrooms, to name a few.

I ended up taking a 4 credit botany class, replete with a lab to increase
my knowledge of the mind altering substances found in nature, and to
grow better pot

10+ years clean and sober now btw.

I've been on plenty of mind bending drugs myself, but i haven't tried peyote. What did u think of it? I was talking to a guy in Amsterdam that said he took it in a desert, and he thought he was in a tropical rain forest! Does it send ur head away?

Have u tried high strength salvia? It's legal in the UK but it sends u into a different dimension for 5-10mins....crazy stuff!!

How is this for a mushroom.

I haven't picked mushrooms since I was a kid living on our farm. Used to get paddocks literally covered in them, some as big as a frypan. It was kind of like that line out of 'Forrest Gump', "Fried mushroom, mushroom stew, grilled mushroom, garlic mushroom..." I think you get the idea.
