Magical Mushrooms

[Kurt Cocaine]

We had a thread on this last year on Metal Ireland so another here on Metal Warfare will be of great use no doubt.
My friend told me yesterday that his mate was out on Sunday and found 60 of our little magic friends.
I'll go out this weekend with my mate and have a quick scan around our usual local spots.

Good luck to you all who partake in these activities this coming season......

i went for a look at the pitch and putt course where i get them last week and there wasnt a single one.
id say ill need to wait until it gets a bit colder and wetter.

[Kurt Cocaine]

Yeah, I'm not expecting to find anything this weekend myself but I'll go out for a scout anyway.
I guess my mate's mate found them on mountainous ground. I mast ask....

[Kurt Cocaine]

Yep, that lad found them in the mountains around Omeath in Co. Louth.
So they're out in high ground.

They've been out since mid August. Haven't found any myself but mates have sent me pics

Whereabouts in the country is that?
I was up on Slieve Foy (Co Louth) doing a half day mountain hike a couple of weeks ago and we seen plenty of normal mushrooms but none of our little magic friends.

Been hearing of findings down south, midlands, Antrim mountains and the north west.

Went out to two local fields this morning. Got around 60 and my friend got 30+.....
Not a bad stsrt to the mushie season.

I was out today in north tipp. fuck all doing. it's still very warm and dry. need to get out to some more exposed hills but great to hear others are finding a few. I'll keep ye posted if and when I have any luck. Also, I have been hearing of them sine mid august but only in very small amounts and near coastal areas where I presume it is colder and wetter.

Went out to a couple more places during the week. Still fuck all doing. How are the rest of ye getting on?

It's giving rain for Saturday so any of you who can make it out early Sunday morning do so because the morning after a wet day is the best time for picking.

It flogged rain here yesterday as predicted and lo and behold I scored 40 in around 30 minutes this afternoon. All fresh up as well not gone pale at all.

It is on. Happy days.

[Kurt Cocaine]

Nice one. Didn't get out today myself but will go for a look tomorrow evening or Tuesday evening.

I got 50 yesterday evening in those fields I picked 10 days ago. I really should have went there on Sunday as planned though, because cattle were in the fields yesterday and I wonder how many they munched and trampled into the ground?
I also found a new field yesterday. I only found 3 in it but hopefully more will pop up in the coming weeks.

[Kurt Cocaine]

I got about 120 today, one hours picking.
My mate texted me this evening. Sent me a pic of a nice big bag of mushies he picked today on a mountain. He guesstimated about 700, not bad at all.
