A very interesting fungus is a psilocybe hemilanceate. Where he grows, he is interested in many lovers of psychedelic sensations. The people also call this mushroom a cap of freedom, a freckle and a sharp conical bald head. The semi-lanceolate psilocyte belongs to the Strofariev family. Macromycete contains substances such as psilocin and psilocybin. They have a psychoactive effect, so the mushroom is hallucinogenic and inedible.
Description
The semi-lanceolate psilocyte has a conical shape with a characteristic tubercle at the tip. Its diameter does not exceed 2 cm. The edges are always bent inward, although there are adult specimens with a flattened hat, but this is the exception, and not the rule. In wet weather, it is olive-gray and streaky, and when dried, it becomes creamy. The strokes disappear. The color of the macromycet head can vary in a wide range of tones. Interestingly, even near growing specimens, shades can range from beige to dark brown. Coloring depends on a number of reasons: the type of soil, weather, humidity, associated vegetation, etc. If damaged, it turns blue. The hat has a smooth and sticky surface. The peel is relatively easy to remove (especially in young mushrooms).
The semi-lanceolate psilocybe has olive-gray or light plates, which eventually turn black with a purple tint. Her pulp smells of mold and can be of all cream and light shades. Macromycete spores are purplish black. Leg height up to 7 cm, diameter about 2 mm. In shape it is uniformly thick with a seal at the base. In young mushrooms, the leg is straight, while in old mushrooms it can bend. It is slightly lighter in color than a hat; at the base it may have a bluish tint. Her surface may be finely scaly or smooth. The leg itself is flexible, strong, elastic, without a border.
Habitat
A semi-lanceolate psilocyte can grow in groups of several tens of specimens or individually. The mushroom can be found in the grass cover of fields and meadows, on pastures for livestock, on vacant lots, in parks, on the side of roads and paths. Prefers bumps, irrigated surfaces and moist places. A characteristic feature is that the mushroom never grows on cultivated cultivated fields. The semi-lanceolate psilocybe has a symbiotic relationship with certain types of cereal grasses. It bears fruit from August to frost. The peak falls on September-October. This macromycete is widespread in some regions of the northern part of the temperate zone.
Act
A semi-lanceolate psilocyte gives a psychedelic effect by acting on the central nervous system. The content of psilocybin in fungi from different regions may vary. After swallowing them on an empty stomach in raw form, the effect occurs after about 20 minutes and lasts 4-8 hours. Mushroom infusion begins to act much faster. It should be understood that the use of "freckles" can cause various mental deviations, partial, and sometimes complete irreversible loss of mind! Psilocybin mushrooms are especially not recommended for overly susceptible individuals and people with suicidal tendencies.
