Do magic mushrooms grow in Kentucky?

Answer 1

You can grow them in any closet with the right humidity and temp. As for outside you they do but you need to look after a rain when the humidity is up.

Answer 2

I am from Eastern Kentucky, in Ashland. My dad had a ranch in Florida I picked cubes all day long there and in Texas the advice you got was correct.

Look for a golden cap, bruising at the stem blue or purple. The spore print will be the same color a dark purple. I haven't seen mushrooms in kentucky that are active but doesn't mean there not there. After a good rain go hunting. Now the morning stuff matter all the time as long as humidity is good about 74-80 or above on a barometer. Even if you break a cap in have it should also bride to a purple or blue where the cap is white. It's from the oxygen hitting it. If you find some go on reddit they have a great shroom community. Personally I have not found any here or salyersville or prestonsburg again doesn't mean their not there. Hell buy a shroom kit, but be careful and mindful what you are doing ok. One love!

Answer 3

Yes they do.

Look in horse, or cow dung a day or two after a good rain.(When i see them)

There are a number of pyschoactive mushrooms in TN.

Dont go hunting unless you do your research and know what your doing.

DON'T BE STUPID! RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH!

Answer 4

Yes, they do, but the documented psilocybes are few. Some notable species that have been verified are panaleous, and gymnopilius, note that these are not the most common ones that are used recreationally....(or religously depending on your approach) but they are active. Those verified of the species psilocybe include Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata and Psilocybe caerulipes, be aware that both are kind of rare, but they are out there. Late in 2009 I saw photos of a huge patch of the elusive caerupiles, what a find. It is largely believed that cubensis (the most common active shroom) do not grow here, however, when I first started learning about these species I found what I still think to this day were two growing in July on a cattle farm in SE KY. Possibly spores traveled with the cattle from farther south, or maybe I'm wrong. I still return to that field hoping one day to find that they do grow here.

Do not let this discourage your hunt though, in fact, let this info encourage you. Considering that Kentucky is one of the most bio-diverse regions in the country this opens the opportunity for anyone to find shrooms that previously were not thought to grow here. Additonally, since little research has been done on psilocybes in our area, its quite possible that there are unidentified species out there.

Look for mushrooms with a purple-brown spore print, a separable pellicle (clear skin you gently peel off the cap, and the tendency to bruise blue at the base. If you have these characteristics you most likely have an active....but not all actives do this so....get a good all encompassing field guide, also paul stamete's psiocybin mushrooms of the world is The Bible for actives. Good luck, happy hunting, and hopefully happy tripping...jh

Yes I have been quiet successful picking Mushrooms in Conway and surrounding areas

Answer 6

Yes, they grow all over the state and can be found most easily in the fall, in cow fields. (sometimes in cow manure itself)

Answer 7

they do but only when its hot after it rains, look in horse or cow fields and go here to identify or if you want to grow your own. no it doesnt stink up your house.

Answer 8

Psilocybin mushrooms are not necessarily one species. However, the most common, P. cubensis, will look the same regardless of where it is grown.

Answer 9

yes they do in pastures where cows are fed grain
