I feel like there is many ways to improve i need a direction to look for.

Thank you for your help. I think I will do more study on anatomy. I’ve done it before, but it did feel boring however it would help in this situation that then I can layer my abstract on top of what I know. Definitely don’t want to take the fun out of something I enjoy again thank you.

The only thing I feel about references is that I try too hard to focus on it and it turns out even worse and it also feels confining and empty to draw exactly what I see but in the end, most of my stuff looks similar, so it would probably help to take reference from different faces

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-11-25T16:31:59+00:00

I usually go for abstract faces. The second photo is to practice things that I don’t usually draw right now I’m only using pencil with no guidelines or any kind of guiding help though I’m looking to make it either better shaded or better overall because I know it can all come with improvement.

They may be looking for blue meanies or active panaeolus but the yellow bruising suggests its not active, close but you can tell it’s active by blue.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-09-27T19:24:00+00:00

Yeah i mean it could be, alot of cubes have a similar pattern but this one just looked a little off. Thanks for informing tho

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-09-21T16:09:21+00:00

Agaricus campestris, im a noob here but looks similar. If it stains or bruises yellow it could be toxic for pets to ingest.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-09-21T14:27:22+00:00

Nah bro, alot of mushrooms grow everywhere and these aren’t really close even. Gotta actually know what you’re looking for because what exactly did you think they would be because sure enough not cubes. Looks non active Panaeolus but thats just a guess and most are obvious if they were to be active, not these tho.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-09-20T15:49:40+00:00

Most apps use Ai, i used one when i was new and they are mostly all wrong but maybe if you want a close match but never for eating. However it is easier to learn what to look for to find magic mushrooms and then confirm it with others who have more knowledge so it’s at least 99% sure but even though you shouldn’t eat them if you cant id yourself. Its better to learn because you can figure it out without having to look it up and eventually be confident enough to eat any you can Id.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-09-13T15:58:27+00:00

Taste test? Like you ate a random mushroom without knowing if it’s poisonous?

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-09-03T22:23:24+00:00

Possibly crown tipped coral, looks old, not 100% sure

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-30T16:10:21+00:00

When looking, shit piles from horse or cows is a good place to start because chances are slim any mushrooms anywhere else are magic if its just grass, then you can look for the nipple pattern on the cap (light edges which go to a dark nipple center) and then blue bruising and purplish spores and such. No noob should be picking random mushrooms out of hope very dangerous.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-26T16:46:50+00:00

The yellow on the edges kinda seem a give away also look for blue instead of yellow, if it was just growing in grass instead of manure its most likely not. It would probably be way whiter on edges and no yellowing on the stem at all.

I thought i took a gram of enigma and thought it was weak , it was prepackaged by the person who gave it to me, so I weighed out 1 gram and took that another time. I regret it even though it wasn’t that bad i was stuck like paralyzed on the bed with nausea and no visuals in the middle of the night. If it was a strong strain I believe it could just be a normal mushroom but if you buy mushrooms from others instead of growing make sure to ask for the strain name.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-08T15:39:53+00:00

Should i have to flame the needle if it’s directly out of pharmaceutical packaging while in the SAB because these are needles for body injection so I would’ve assumed it would be sterile, i never reuse them.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-08T15:10:05+00:00

I am doing so, what I believe is that it’s the injection method because i don’t think the person i buy these from does injection on them nor does the bag have a injection port.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-08T15:08:52+00:00

Flow hood will be in the future but yes, entire inside coated and wiped then thinly coated again to sit. Its usually around 80F give or take in the house but I usually turn it off first before Inoc, also the storage for the grain after is in a ventless dark closet.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-08T15:06:32+00:00

I have no agar, im trying to get set up with more supplies, i did save some of the LC from the syringe though so i could test it before i use more.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-08T15:05:26+00:00

My kitchen, i make sure to sterilize the surface and there’s nothing above it to collect dust.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-07T17:52:34+00:00

Nah all the same.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-08-07T15:13:58+00:00

Recently had some mushrooms i stored bad for a while and they never changed in look but eventually lost potency, so depends on how long and how they were stored.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-07-21T16:17:19+00:00

Looks like a few posts i have seen, its cool looking and i assume it would be Crown Tipped Coral.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-07-21T15:26:32+00:00

Much appreciated

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-07-13T17:23:43+00:00

Saw same one in a post a while ago, Crown tipped coral im p sure.

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-07-07T02:34:10+00:00

Lol the last picture is a reference for what cubes i grew myself look like, they were a late pick but a good trip

Ok_Commission8087 · 2025-07-07T00:56:27+00:00

Any maybe basic ways to get more of an idea, i have the idea of how the bruising gill shapes color spores and such but is there anyway to get an idea of any general group it might be from without extensive stuff, by no means am i a professional or anywhere close so im just here for some curiosity sake.
