That was dumb as shit. You're lucky you didn't end up dead. Fly agaric has some seriously poisonous relatives that look very similar to it. Some that look near identical, just a little off-color.

Anyway, if you're mushroom picking, picking psilocybe's in cow dung is usually the safest, though still not fool-proof. Liberty caps are often a safe bet. Remember to wash them off well. They did grow on cow poop.

Encatuse Reviewed by Encatuse on . has anyone ever gotten poisonous boomers? What really freaks me out about boomers is if I get one of the really poisonous species of mushrooms. I'm no PhD mycologist, so I'd have no way of knowing if what I got was the real deal. Have any of you got some boomers thinking they were real, then later finding yourself having to go to the hospital for doing serious damage to your liver? I don't so much fear the trip, that seems cool. But alas, can 2g of even the most poisonous of mushrooms not do much? Rating: 5
