Summary: That’s exactly what I said,

when I first heard the term. These are only for the dedicated enthusiast because I hear it takes about a couple hundred shrooms for a good “trip”.

Summary: Bioactivity

John kept telling Noah that he’d eat one in the name of science if Noah ate one. Noah refused, so progress has been stalled (thankfully).

Summary: but did you eat them? ;)

just kidding. they are apparently psychoactive, altho eating a Conocybe sp. gives me the shudders…unless you like trips…to the morgue!

nice find, Christian, and very nice photo.

we look forward to seeing the microscopy on these.

Summary: Christian,

Any other info on the habitat? Under trees? Wood chips, dung or moss under the grass? Were they in a ditch or low lying area? Was the area boggy at all? Thanks.
