How can you identify psychedelic?
There is no easy way to identify psychedelic substances. In order to do this you first must take the time necessary to thoroughly research specific substances. You really have to do your homework and try to become an expert on what you are trying to identify. There are many potentially dangerous and fatal substances out there that can be confused with a harmless hallucinogen. For instance let's talk about mushrooms. There are many poisonous mushrooms. In fact, some of the most poisonous mushrooms are related to psychoactive mushrooms and sometimes can be hard to distinguish from one another without extremely close attention to detail. This means that instead of having a crazy trip on some mushroom you be dieing a slow painful death. Having said this I am not responsible for any mishaps caused by ignorance and stupidity and I am not endorsing the use of any psychedelic substance.

There is no way to certainly identify psilocybin-containing mushrooms without a chemical analysis. However, they may stain blue upon bruising, and are generally tan or brown with dark purple spores.

Yes, some mushrooms can indeed be red. There are various species of mushrooms that exhibit a red coloration, often due to the presence of pigments called anthocyanins.

However, it's important to note that while some red mushrooms are harmless, others can be toxic or even deadly. Therefore, if you come across red mushrooms in the wild, it's crucial to exercise caution and avoid consuming them. Always consult a mushroom expert or guidebook before attempting to identify and consume wild mushrooms.
