Ive picked a shopping bag full - what shall I do next.......

Chuck them in the bin.

Seriously bro' the stone tends to last waaaay to long, it becomes worrisome, tiring and boring. Consumption is hit and miss [getting stoned vs nothing!]. Correct identification of the mushrooms is also a worry.

Buy some weed if you want to get stoned.

NO ! Dry them, eat them as required, fresh they will go off after a bit, dry them and you can do with them what you want, hell chop em up and mix them in with a salad to take to a bbq, and monitor the ensuing hilarity..

EDIT - so far as I know, in NZ the ones you want to look out for are called death caps, basically eat one and the result is self explanatory..
Anything that has "gills" up the stalk is a no do, leave it and look somewhere else.

EDIT 2 - not that I condone the use of illicit narcotics.. publicly

EDIT 3 - If it was your first go at them I'd eat a dozen or so if they were dried, wait 2 hours till they have peaked, if you are happy have half a dozen more, and more if you want..

Dunno bout a dozen on your first crack.......
Theres a magic mushroom on the $50 note.............. I shit you not have a look - a wee purple one

We used to eat them raw or brew up a milo. Best of luck with that, much harder to talk yourself down if things go pear-shaped than some other recreational fun..... Make sure you in the right mindset b4 you start

"I used to do a lot of things........ Jeeeeesus I was eeeevil"

Send them to me.

Ahhh the memories.

Shit I'm not in the toilet and everyone can see me having a mud!
Oh no wait, I am in the toilet.
Or am I just hallucinating that I am.
No no, I am in the toilet. Plop.
Shit I'm not in the toilet and everyone can see me!
Oh man I think I've been through this already.
Oh man, I hope I wiped properly and there's no pooh running down my legs.
Shit did I put my pants on? Yep... phew.
Why's everyone looking at me???? Oh, I've been staring at my pants for the last 20 seconds.
Shit am I still in the toilet? No no and my pants are still on.
Fuck me I need to get to my mates who are equally wasted as me.
Or are they?
They'll probably laugh at me as I walk in with no pants on and shit dribbling down my leg.
Another mushy shake? Oh go on then....

Good times

Gold.

I was pretty unhappy when I went to take a wizz and it came out as acid and melted the toilet .. My flatmates were surprisingly good about it though.

[Mikkel]

Anyone tried putting them on the barbie with a bit of blue cheese? As good as portobellos?

You need to be really careful with identifying psilocybin mushrooms. Unfortunately, they look a lot like some seriously poisonous varieties.

In brief, if the gills have a purple-black tinge, stay away.

I have a book on identifying them. Currently perma-loaned to a friend, but I could get it back and lend it out if you're serious about going mushrooming. Worth studying up properly.

Did you know that there's a species of magic mushroom which is particular to NZ and the upper North Island? Psilocybin aucklandia.

If you just want to trip on mushies, you'd probably do better to import spores and cultivate them yourself so you know what you're getting. The spores aren't illegal.

Bear in mind, though, that for god knows what reason, psilocybin mushrooms themselves are a class A drug in NZ. Like heroin and methamphetamine. I doubt the cops are particularly worried about mushrooms, but drawing attention to yourself while in possession of a class A drug is never a smart move.

Its not like I started this thread cos I was going to go into business over this!

I was just surprised how they came up so quickly, so many and at this time of year. I wondered if they were toadies or the ones that everyone chases at Bell Block Beach each autumn?

Post some photos of the caps and gills and I'll tell you.



And maybe grab me a bag full while you're out there?

You know what? I haven't seen a thread on KB about riding or bikes that has gotten so many people posting their expert knowlege.

Faaarking excellent mate! Been there myself, it's both a worry and a laugh. Finally figured out I'd been sitting on the dunny doing nothing but freaking out about what was happening, who could see me and how I'd get my pants back up. What a mish.

(A mush mish actually.)

Only illegal if you dry them!

[peasea]

Only illegal if you dry them!

Really?? How bizzarre.

[jrandom]

Only illegal if you dry them!

And beating up stroppy women is only illegal if it leaves marks.
