@BILLYBONGCHEEKS Not really. It's actually not that easy to kill or seriously harm yourself with poisonous mushrooms, especially if you're hunting actives and not edibles. You actually have to consume a relatively large amount of most poisonous mushrooms before they'll do any serious damage. One nice big death cap could do some damage, but not any liberty cap lookalike. It's actually very, very rare for anyone to die in an attempt to consume psychoactive mushrooms because the lookalikes just aren't that toxic, so you'd have to eat a whole bunch of them. Deaths caused by mushrooms almost always involve people hunting for edibles, and nearly all of those cases involve death caps; they're really the big danger in the mushroom hunting world. Definitely never take any chance on anything that looks like a white amanita. I mean i'd certainly still suggest people be sure before consuming anything anyway, but it's not actually true that people stand to die if they eat one little toxic lookalike

@@SirPhytone The mushroom is the fruiting body of the living mycelium, and in the case of psilocybe semilanceata -- the liberty cap -- that can only grow in decaying grass near ground level. That's why they can't be cultivated. The mycelial layer for libs is constantly being broken up and reformed, particularly if there are people and cattle around, and sheep graze mushrooms along with grass without much thought for scissoring things. I've seen them come year after year on a rugby pitch where play was held two or three times a week. They only stopped appearing there when drainage was improved on the pitch. There is much debate about cutting mushrooms with a knife rather than picking, but authorities I trust, including Paul Stamets, my three chunky field guides, Merlin Sheldrake, chef Antonio Carluccio, all say it's myth. Fungi are extremely tough organisms. I'm all for etiquette and respecting them, but picking does no harm. I meant no disrespect to you either, but what you perceived as "arrogance" may just be decades of experience talking, and not just with libs. If I saw someone out snipping them with scissors I'd have to stifle a laugh. In fact, for some culinary mushrooms, plucking them is essential to correct identification. It's also a good way for lib identification because the mycelial strands at the bottom of the stipe will often blue in contact with the air. But by all means, you stick with your scissors.

This video is excellent (solely for identification purposes of course), but the famous nipple isn't a very helpful identifier if lookalikes are around because the mushrooms are small and the lookalikes are so similar. I like the focus on stems in the video. Liberty caps are identifiable by their caps, but better distinguished from lookalikes by the stem. A point not mentioned here about the stems -- they always, without fail -- have a bendy/wiggly/crooked stem, and the stem is always pale. If you get a mushroom with a straight stem, chuck it. Anything with a thick-looking stem should be chucked also. Avoid anything with a black/dark stem. Another point about long grass is the caps of mature ones will struggle up through long/clumpy grass. Lookalikes don't. The stems can be surprisingly long, and you'll see the bendiness as though they've twisted up through the grass. It's worth disturbing the grass a bit when you find one of these or hunker down and scan around as they're often in groups. A final point -- try to get the whole stem. The fibrous base will often stain blue with exposure to air. Flick caps before you pick to release spores. Try not to clear a whole site. Leave babies behind. Be certain of four or five and the rest will almost call to you.

Best place I know for mushrooms are golf courses. Once you pick one you will never get it wrong. Magics when fresh look like they are coated in slime, and the nipple looks like you can look into it compared to the body, and when older the mushroom turns white, but once put in a freezer and defrosted it looks new. The biggest ones I've found were in Hexham, and were the tallest I've seen, and if you accidentally wander onto the racecourse you will see more than you've ever seen. What a lot of people DON'T do, is plant them where they would like to collect them, but I did, and while everyone went in camping trips I went to a disused cemetery where I scattered some and they grew amazing. Back to my first point, if you know a golf course that is next to natural, or old land, then they are full to the brim and no one really goes to pick them.

If you can manage to pull them out of the ground without breaking them you can sometimes see a blue coloring at the base of the stem. Not the best identifying tip but it could be of help :) Also remember to double check your harvest at home before drying to reduce the risk of eating something nasty and toxic.

I would not eat magic mushrooms in case it takes away my ability to perceive these things naturally. I think naturally is better.

@@just-a-fella3212 Psilocybin is not like alcohol, it brings you up past a level of normal sobriety, it doesn't take you down like alcohol, Psilocybin makes you very aware and analytical. It doesn't take away your ability to perceive those things naturally either, they last for like 4-6 hours so not sure where you heard that from. I'm willing to bet you have no issue drinking alcohol or taking antidepressants, if that's the case then you are just ridiculous plain and simple. Psilocybin is not an escape from reality, it's literally the opposite of that. Also, it is natural and it exists on this planet for a reason.

@@mongogojjo5944 One drink of alcohol prevents my abilities for weeks. Why would you "bet I have no issue drinking it"? You presume wrongly. And I do not require antidepressants but those who need them may benefit from them. You presume _so_ wrongly. I find it funny that so many mushie heads worship magic mushrooms as if they are God, and proselytize their mushie religion as if they think the world would be a better place if everyone else mushied their brains too. No thank you. Why take chemical laden mushrooms to see into other dimensions when we can see into those dimensions and more with clean Christian living? And why do mushie heads got so angry at people like me who don't need mushrooms?

Not often a educational video helps me but this did, good video 🙂

Awesome video man 👍

This was nice to watch. I'm sorry youtube doesn't support you, I think it's silly. It's far safer having knowledge on any given subject, especially one where eating the wrong thing will kill you. I'll subscribe to your patroen if you have one, if not I'll check what my options are in terms of supporting you. Thanks again. Edit. Just checked out your buy me a coffee section and going to donate but wanted to suggest patroen as it takes money per month rather than a one off donation. I think the steady supply of support will really help.

Thank you so much for this. I totally support this educational content!! Not too long ago and we were all taught nature's "rules and regulations" . Mushrooms or not .....Human intelligence has grown so fast, common sense hasn't been able to catch up

I used to pick these on PEI every fall. They were always near poop and once you spotted the first one you started seeing them everywhere. We picked several pounds a day. 1978ish

Brilliant material thanks buddy

Thanks alot for the interesting video, I went looking today but no luck, hopefully now with your help I'll find the right ones!

I live in central west Europe. The grasslands here are like this: they are like farms that grow grass and then harvested for livestock feeding. Therefore the grasslands are rarely natural and wild. And they are usually surrounded by conifer trees. In some of them there are animal manure, mostly of sheep. In some of these lands I see many types of mushroom and many lookalikes of liberty cap, but never a single liberty cap. I have been looking for them throughout autumn. I really can't understand why I can't find any. Some of the fields that I go are very similar to those that are considered ideal field. I can only hypothesize that maybe PH of this region is not proper, because there are many limestone mines around. I have almost given up. But again, thank you for your great educational videos.

@@vlad8746 Thank you for your reply. After I wrote this comment, I also thought about the problem of altitude. The places that I go for hunting are in the altitude of 400m to 600m. But I doubt that the rain might be problem. Because here it rains most of the week. Even if it has passed 4 days since the last day, the mushrooms should be still there, maybe more dry. Isn't it? Unfortunately I don't have easy access to higher altitude and that might be my main problem.
