Shroom hunting

[bedake]

ok its almost summer!! kinda sorta almost spring time, but anyone live in ohio want to go shroom hunting when its time?!

[ibreakthings]

where do u live in ohio? an are u experienced and stuff, like are you professional cuz its really hard to identify shrooms and be right without a professional or something with you cuz its really dangerous

but ive always wanted to go hunting, well i have but i never found anything that i was sure was right.. cuz i didnt wanna trust my own identification cuz if your wrong youre dead or you get so sick that you wish you were dead.

i live in the southwest part... where do u live

[bedake]

i live an hour north of columbus. I visit middletown often, that is down by dayton and cinci

im not eperienced, ive researched identification for the past 2 years and how to take spore prints and what not, I was hoping someone here would have some experience.

the nice folks at magic-mushroom.net forums help to identify if you take a picture and measure out the specs

theo bolded ones will be you best bets. The Gyms arnt worth it they are only mildly active.

Yeah ive researched a lot about hunting and spore printing, and ive been on shroomery.org and they help identify. I bet if we got a microscope and looked at some spored it would be much safer than just looking at the mushroom itself..

i live in mason its like half hour away from cinci... im only 15 tho i duno if it would work lol
