I'm wondering if these are magical. They look magical to me. I grow golden teachers and these aren't them, but they have very similar features, thought I might've found a cube, lemme know watch ya think! Philosopher attached the following image(s):  image.jpg (1,741kb) downloaded 64 time(s). image.jpg (1,978kb) downloaded 65 time(s). image.jpg (2,088kb) downloaded 64 time(s).We are surprisingly similar.

If a mushroom in that condition were psilocybin active, it would have developed bluish discolourations by now. I'd narrow it down to Stropharia or maybe Agrocybe but without further data I could pinpoint the species. “There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'. The field acts on the observer and puts him in a privileged position vis-à-vis the universe. From this position he has access to the realities which are ordinarily hidden from us by time and space, matter and energy. This is what we call the Great Work." ― Jacques Bergier, quoting Fulcanelli

They don't look like cubes to me. If you intend to hunt wild mushrooms, please educate yourself of various methods of identifying mushrooms. Do they bruise blue? Does the stipe have a ring around it (I don't see one in the pictures)? Did you take a spore print? What do the gills look like? Does the habitat you found them in match the conditions required for P. cubensis? Many species of mushroom look very similar to the untrained eye, and some of them can be very poisonous. Get reading, and happy hunting!

Thank you for typing what I was too lazy (and knackered) to type! “There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'.

Thanks guys! Ya I was thinking some type of stropharia couldnt get a print because they were already sundried. I wouldnt eat anything I pick unless I am somehow 100% sure, like if I spread spores. But thanks for the concern! Ive read a lot of ID books I just thought I'd see what you guys were thinkin. Wasnt hunting but I do landscaping so I always find and try to ID unfamiliar mushrooms We are surprisingly similar.
