Assuming it was way beyond its edible stage? No idea if it was ever a plump, moist mushroom tempting us to a bite.

Do you know what type it is? Most mushrooms can make you sick or even kill you if consumed.

No idea…quite uncommon to find people around here with some knowledge of mushrooms, other than the farmed ones. As a consequence, I’ve never heard of people trying them as food. And the published guides usually won’t cover the species around here.

@WhiskeySandwich beautiful blue.

These have been coming up sporadically since I had a viburnum removed a few years ago. Very short lived - they turn to mush in a day or two.

@ARNC I am guessing those are ink caps

@Oaktavia thanks. My phone sometimes helps me out with identification but not this time.

Just some wild Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata, and Psilocybe cyanescens for your viewing pleasure.

Also some cute Amanita Muscaria

All three of these are psychoactive when used properly.

@Brock wow they are beautiful. Did you pick any?

[Brock]

@Oaktavia yea I picked the ovoids and the cyans. Left the amanita because they are fun to look at..

[Oaktavia]

@Brock wow, that is a fair amount. Enjoy!

[Brock]

@Oaktavia yes! We’re lucky that they grow here twice a year. I have a full jar from last year in the cupboard still ‍
