I'm still pretty damn noob at IDing so many, but there is about 3-4 mushrooms, Oysters, Morels, Chanterelle (the chicken of the woods) that are VERY easy to ID that are fuckin delicious. It's fun to go hunting with someone more experienced than me. Also I've found some Psilocybe cyanescens in random places before like Golden Gate Park! They are fairly common around the SF bay area and more northern regions. Their name even is a play on san (cyan) Franciscan (escen ) which is cute
anyone else here forage or spot mushrooms? i've been thinking about growing some. they have neat little boxes you just water and they grow or i suppose you can just buy bagged spores too. I've only come across Oysters once but they are fuckin bomb.
dang, for me the very first guy i ever met who did it was also unhoused!! that's how i learned about wavy caps (Psilocybe cyanescens) was me and some friends hanging out in Golden Gate Park and the dude was picking them and we asked him about it and he filled us all in on the details. It was mind blowing we were chillin sitting next to psychedelic mushrooms all while trying to buy some fuckin weed (which he also hooked up!) that dude rocked so fuckin hard, he hooked us up with a few of them as well after we bought weed. But i've gone back after the first rain of the season and there was a TON of people all looking for them lol. I eventually found some on my own away from the city and that was fun.
