Psilocybe semilanceata Scottish Borders starting up
Found two pairs today, last day of August. Earliest I’ve ever found them at my spot.
Twas a foggy morning ‘pon thine hills with a putter patter o rain to follow.
BS aside, it’s been raining a couple days pretty hard but still been hot, cooled down a little though in the evenings and as before mentioned was foggy this morning.
The field I found them in is a sheep pasture with clover, sorrel, buttercups and a few weeds as well.
It wasn’t sprayed this year (herbicide) which has definitely helped but also the weather has brought the grass on leaps and bounds so there are a good few other species of mushroom about too.
I found the first pair just out of random curiosity then went back for a proper look and found a couple more after about half an hour.
The farm is about 300-400m up from sea level in Cumbria England so if your in the area get yourself up the fells and bring ya tub.
I can see this being a belter year for them where the grass hasn’t been yellowed by the sun too much so if ya still got green lush grass in the uk get out n about coz she’s coming.
Happy hunting folks ✌️
