Did you know that you can inoculate an instant rice bag or sterile jar of sugar water, then mix it into a garden or mulch bed to get reliable psilocybin without risking being caught with an indoor colony? Chaos gardening is fun.

My old roommate tried growing shrooms but something went wrong and he threw everything in the compost pile like 6 months ago. Now there's familiar-looking mushrooms sprouting in my garden, but I'm not confident enough in identifying mushrooms to eat them.
Edit: I took another look and I'm pretty sure they're not psilocybin. There was also some weird yellow ooze coming out of the compost pile, so there's all kinds of weird things growing in my garden.
I might try growing from spores indoors later.
It can be tricky because there are so many different strains that are morphologically different, but if the anatomy matches up and the spore print is the right colour then you're probably safe. Or so dead that you can't say I was wrong and that technically still makes me right.
Yeah it's that last part that worries me
They say being poisoned has never hurt anyone.
Feeder mice are cheap in a pet store. Their job is to be eaten so being a lab rat would be a stay of execution. You wanna do some animal testing?
If you cut a tiny little sliver off and bruises blue/purple that's an extremely good sign it's psychoactive. It isn't full proof and you should still take numerous photos from every angle, especially under the cap where it's growing out of and submit the pics to mushroom ID websites or even reddit to get at least a few answers to be confident about it.
Also if u live in CA or possibly other states you can sometimes bring the mushrooms to a college with a mycology department and to have them ID it. I've used UCSF for this in the past. Obviously I'd call first to make sure they'd be okay with that. A bit more work than the other methods tho tbh if you're not close to one
