Literally Thousands of Amanita Muscaria In One Field

- Опубликовано: 30 мар 2022
- Where did they all come from?! In this video, I react to footage of a massive field of Amanita muscaria mushrooms that bloomed somewhere in Tasmania, Australia. The original filmers were so excited to find this field, and honestly, I'm insanely jealous...
This video is the top post of all time on the subreddit, r/mycology. The comments section reveals that the enthusiasm gets shared around by mycophiles across the globe, and also reveals that Tasmania is an anagram for Amanitas.... ABSOLUTELY INSANE!
Let us know what you think in the comments! Have you ever found a mushroom patch close to this scale?

I live in Tasmania and I've seen a pine plantation totally covered with amanita muscaria, as dense as this, together with slippery jacks. Never occurred to me that it's something special
That is crazy, I never would have thought it was so common!
So jelly!
It's very common at pine plantations here in Europe as well, it's just that mushroom pickers tend to neglect those plantations because it lacks the natural beauty of an ancient forest.
I am so star struck, I would not be able to contain my excitement seeing that field!!!!!!
They are beautiful! I live in Alaska and they are everywhere!
These mushrooms grow like mad up here in North Central Sweden* About 50 of them appear every Fall in our yard, under a couple of big old Birch trees. I enjoy watching them change daily .
Thanks for sharing my video Tony! You’ve been such an inspiration to my mushroom journey!
Will be heading back to the same spot within a year
I can't wait to see your update!
Amanitas are cool! There's a lot of them around here (Norway) as well, and obviously a long history of using them among the indigenous people in the north. Unfortunately, there are also a lot of religious nuts where I live who trample them as soon as they show up 😮💨
They are so cool! Lucky you have lots of them around, they are always a gem to find. Wild that people would trample on them purposefully?? Like trying to get rid of them?
@@FreshCapMushrooms yeah 😥 I guess half of them do it because they think they're deadly poisonous and they're saving people's lives, and the other half because they think people use them to "get high" and they're saving them from sin or something... But I think most people appreciate them and think it's sad to see them destroyed.🍄🍄🍄
That's ridiculous, we don't walk in churches and trample on the bible. To me these people aren't religious they're idiots,regardless of religion
Lol! Ironically I would imagine trampling on them would actually help spread them. Maybe a ride on lawn mower helped spread these one in the video 😂🍄❤🍄❤🌱
@@banehog It's funny because there's a story of a book the catholic church tried to hide by buying the rights of the book. A book that spoke on the early stages of Christianity and how the people "anointed by the word of christ" where actually on magic mushrooms. And this gave them power to preach the word of god directly. The church tried to hide this book existence for obvious reasons.
My father fermented it together with onion I think and honey and ate for his health issues. It helped him too. My bf also has ate dried up psylocibin containing caps too. It sells quite nicely too!
You can decarboxylate them with lemon juice or by drying. You can also boil them out and use them as a gourmet. Some people love them some don't as a gourmet edible.
I really enjoy your videos cause they're relaxed and informative at the same time...☺ I would love to know what your experience taking Amanita was like since I haven't tried it myself yet but definitely planning to make a tea out of it in summer...
I've seen large patches of Fly Agarics in the woods before... in South East UK, not quite as crazy at that but a lot. They love to grow around the Silver Birch trees over here, certain places I know where they come up most years in sept/oct like clockwork and they have done for as long as I can remember :)
Indeed..I always found them iwhen I was younger in my old hometown of Liverpool in a fairy circle in the shadow of silver birch treds..I left an account above of tripping on Fly Agaric after many years ..did it when I lived in Brighton..lol.x
PS..I was Fly Agarics growing up by Devil's Dyke on the South Downs a few years ago
@@sophiew1967I'm thinking that might explain the Beatles
Amanita dreamer would die of excitement i guess 😅❤🍄
They deffinitely would.
I follow both Amanita Dreamer & Psyched Wellness (shown in your video), they are both doing Great work in discovering the potential of the Great Amanita Muscaria!
The Greatest Mushroom in the World 🌎
I would beg to differ for that…
Psilocybe all the way though ^
They serve their own purpose with their native trees - ain’t for consumption in other words
@Psi7 Wow, you may want to look the Fly agaric more thoroughly. 👍
@@ShroomSleep Psilocybin is for the conscious mind whereas Amanita Muscaria is for the unconscious mind - no contest, AM is thee key, though both have their part to play
Soma anyone?
@@carltonparfitt8177 Soma EVERYONE! 😁✌️🍄
Read all about the amanitas on Erowid, very thorough. I want to know how those ancients were able to collect reindeer urine. The whole idea gives new meaning to "getting pissed" [intoxicated].
really enjoyed this, thanks

JACKPOT!!!! Ugh I would love to see something like this!
Found one, years ago, with an extended flat cap that was 16 inches across. It was in a later stage as the cap was very flat and had that discolored ring around the outer rim. This was found in Santa Cruz CA at 200 feet above and looking out over the Pacific coast. Location was recently a wild fire, and I haven't seen any fungi back in that area yet
Loved the info and no bias detected! But please link original videos or at the least credit the creator. Thanks keep making great vids!
Great video find! Thanks for sharing Tony 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Heaven, I would pick a lot of it
One teaspoon of extract daily and I'm free of SSRI's and depression.
I dry them and eat a fingernail sized bit a couple times a day. Gone is the constant noise in my head, I'm focused, and I sleep like a baby after years of horrible insomnia. They grow like mad in my yard and woods.
@@consuelaofthenorth4768 A true gift from God. You are blessed dude!
My favorite mushroom. They grow like this all the time in Alaska. I have seen caribou race each other to eat them
That's amazing! I have seen a few in Alaska, but definitely not this many!! In the Skagway area
A truely amazing story, thank you for sharing it!
Ohmigod! I'd run home for a bushel basket. What a find!
It must feel great to just be able to pick them up like that
Amanita Muscaria is one of my favourites aswell. it is an incredibly potent medicine :)
Found some really huge ones in eastern Manitoba. Thanks for sharing the video. Great channel.
Thanks for being here! Cool to hear that you found them in Manitoba, these are certainly widely distributed!!
Ran into to that once on Grindstone Island in the St. Lawrence River. They were the size of dinner plates . The density was waay greater than this video!
Whoa, that must have been quite the sight!
I’ve heard they can grow in “Fairy Rings” too. So cool! The genus of Amanita Muscaria in my areas is known as Amanita Muscaria var. Guessowii, its orangey yellow and has the same universal veil specks. 🍄
Nice! We get those ones here in Alberta too
@@FreshCapMushrooms Cool! I’m going to try to find some to dry and have a collection of various Mushroom species for show, like you have🙏😇
I’ve found fairy rings and fields of the guessowii variation in northern Wisconsin in mid September
I'm in Florida, & have never seen 1. I'd love to get some & also make amanita muscaria oil for my neuropathy & back pain, foot & legs spasms, also. They're also reputed to help anxiety & panic & insomnia. Another wonderful fungi,!
I find them here in southern New England as well, in the same general orangey-yellow to red color.
Amanita M is one of my favorite mushrooms to look at its just beautiful, such a lovely field I'd be jus as amazed is this fella if I found this grow.
It is also my favorite.
So much medicine, nature wants us to be healthy and happy :)
I need a bunch of those to keep the flys away lol
You can get a truck bed full of them all along the West Coast. They’re not bad as an edible if you prepare them properly.
What about the taste?
@@ownmicelio They taste good, unlike sillys.
They are widespread here in northern Ontario as well, mostly the yellowish orange one but I have see the red ones as well
I'm in Florida & understand that a.muscaria dosnt grow naturally, her. A similar mushroom, amanita persinia is said to grow here, il& I'd love to find it

They have a symbiotic relationship with the trees you see.
Amanita Muscaria has became super popular in Russia last few years. Many giving positive feedback about their experiences with micro-dosing.
I'd love to hear their stories.
@@ShroomSleep ruclips.net/video/qBH2WbjOQ9c/видео.html i guess this one got subtitles in case you do not understand Russian
Baba Masha’s new book Microdosing with Amanita Muscaria contains 750+ user reports
Agree. I am also eating it as microdoses
The New york city in amanita land. They love being in sight where people traverse more than anywhere else i notice. The sloppey areas where theres nice coverage seems to encourage prolific growth in the harsher climates they thrive in. Amanita clearly showing us what its ideal situation is in this video(assessing climate,trees and human activity could help indicate where more environments like this could be)
If you go to Illwaco, WA you will find multiple patches of Fly Agaric. They are all over the place in Washington. I have yet to try one.
I found bunch next to the hiway under pine trees by the river in North Idaho. It was crazy how big some were. I picked a few and brought them back home and spread the spores underneath a few tree's. Hopefully they will be growing soon
So cool. When you harvest do you just keep the caps? Or the stems as well? I’m wondering if the ratio of actives is different in the cap versus the stem
you mention Telluride ...is that Telluride Colorado? i live in CO, so it would be cool to try to see some some day, if thats where i can find them.
Hey Tony, wow what a find. Last I came upon a large patch off a fire road in among Jack Pines. Pick a few bags hoping that I’d found great edibles. Unfortunately I discarded them because I was unsure how to process them for eating or other uses. Do you know of a reliable book or resource on how to properly make use of this mushroom?
When dried properly, the ibotenic decarboxylates to muscimol and they become medicine. Very relaxing and medative. And great help if you have trouble sleeping. And the dreams you get when sleeping on dried amanita is epic.
Great post my friend. 🍄
Thank you! Cheers!
I read once that it was a possibility that Moses was on mushrooms when he talked to the burning bush.
Been finding a lot of these in western Oregon. Some right outside my door.!
What a wondrous beautiful sight 😋 .I've been pretty ill ( neurological illness) & hadn't tripped in years HOWEVER I'd picked a massive Fly Agaric in Port Sunlight Village outside my mum's house & stored iron my freezer for about 3 yrs '..then in my old enormous basement flat I decided to eat some...nothing much happened for about an hour THEN ..lol.I can't crawl or kneel toward my life with my disability but I crawled around the floor following an almost Aztec repeated 3D octagonal purple,red & green design ..I then seemed to enter an almost Escher like painting with the same purple,red & green but the Aztec hexagonal design took on a stepped appeared just like the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland..lol...I felt scared yet completely intrigued..my temperature was definitely raised ..then I reached an almost blessed out state of pure happinesd..I looked down at my beautiful cat Dylan 🐱 & he seemed to be almost copying my actions..rolling on his back lol or carefully negotiating invisible steps..lol.I remember too something If forgotten after not tripping for 12 yrs OMG my hearing was so amplified in my garden I could hear the flowers in my hanging basket growing..a squeaking turning sound in 're soil..SO..other 50' odd yr old English women like playing bingo ..I personal!y prefer entering another realm ! ..I've had some truly amazing experiences when visiting the psychedelic state...sadly never really had many people my age of background or female to discuss it with .love to you all 🌈 xx
the dysphoria from drinking amanita tea for three days is a very unique experience.
Tasmania? That's me. Off to Amanita city (wherever that is)!
I swear i found this same mushroom under my oak tree i found one and searched and found the mycellium growth clump and im now trying to liquid culture and inoculate my veg garden i found a red variety
This is an amazing mushroom. I was mentally ill and amanita got me off of 7 psyche meds, healed my trauma that put me on the meds to begin with. I'm not mentally ill. I have so much self love and peace.
If you go to the Washington coastal pine zones, its hard not to step on them, It blew my mind the first time I saw them.
A true amazing feature, purely magical.
I find the peach 🍑 ones, but they scattered out by pine trees 🌲, and go into my blueberry feild!
South Georgia, and they grow next to aminita verna, and ghost bolete s
I've only been 'seriously' collecting mushrooms for about 6-7 years I suppose, and I've noticed that each year there seems to be an overwhelming excess of one species.
This year it's Chanterelles.
Last year Boletes were everywhere. My son found this thick clump of Penny Buns consisting of one which had grown to the height of my knee. The cap on that thing was just absurdly huge (and heavy).
The year before - Trooping Funnel Caps.
A few years ago, a 10 acre pine plantation near me seemed to be hosting the world's False Saffron Milk Cap convention. They were growing so close together it was almost impossible to walk through the woods. There must have been billions, beautiful to look at and - unfortunately - absolutely fly-ridden.
After an 'excessive' year, the fungi species in question then go into a near total recession. For instance, after last year's amazing Bolete harvest (still 20 litres of them in my freezer) - there has been maybe 3 in all the woods I've scoured this year.
Have whitnessed similar not quite as prolific Amanita Muscaria flushes here in Sweden but that was over 20years ago.
I found yellow Chanterelles with this insanity. Didnt take a long time to fill the baskets.
Amazing.
There's a field similar to that in Richmond BC
muscimol is fairly hydrophilic that's why is found most of it not degraded in urine. Normally hydrophobic compounds under go in higher levels of metabolization to transform them in a hydrophilic compound and then excrete through urine.
dam i pic some and i was so shook to see 10 in a plait next to me and at lesst 7 more out side
i got many defrint typs in my small front yeard
Wow! I have yet to find this mushroom in southern Ontario.
I wanna find some so bad! I heard Ottawa has lots
How do you grow them? I am really new to growing mushrooms and I’m usually a gardener but I really do love these, I want to know how to grow one
@pham_smart1.
My wooded front yard is FULL of the yellow-orange variety of the fly agaric. Most are HUGE specimens with 5-7" caps. If I picked what's in my yard now I'd have over 5 pounds worth.
I know of a spot here in New York where they grow like that nearly every year.
Lots of them in the matsu valley of Alaska.
Oh, how I'd love to find some of these shrooms, growing here in Florida, for me to make up into pain relief rub oil & salves, etç, to use medicinally.🙂🍄🦋
Dude i need to go to this place
Is there a way to grow Amanitas, like in your garden or something like that?
Amanita Dreamer used them to make a slurry with the caps, but I am unsure if they were ever successful in growing them. I have seen videos where the egg was harvested, and then brought home to continue growing with a mist bottle.
They grow like this across the road from my parents house! I didn’t know what they did until today! Going hunting in the weekend!
Have fun! ;)
it was there before you where here it will be here long after you're gone.
I went on a trip to my grandparents house and yellow muscaria was growing RIGHT BEHIND their house lol
I would be collecting them all!!!😂❤
I think of the egg stage of amanitas as a melted ice cream ball when I find them in that stage
LOL totally!!
I came across a stand of 20..30 around the foot of a large pine last year. But nothing of this size ever.
(No boletes, unfortunately...)
Dude found the Smurf village. 😂😂 Always knew it was real.
I just had 20 of them pop up in my front yard! Thank you GOD! :)
Ur in Alberta??? Where at??
Coming from Sweden this would not be a common sight, but they are extremely common here. It’s not necessarily a shroom that makes you happy to discover.
Speaking of Telluride, we found them once in the trees between parking lanes at the Georgetown Railroad parking lot. It was around July, sometime. Huge caps, but we were with family and I had no way to store them. But, I KNEW what they were! It was crazy to see them there, undisturbed.
I didn’t know amanita Muscaria had such a wide range, they exist in Tasmania? And it’s the same species it in evolve into its own new subspecies? I’d be interested to see genetic analysis on this
They're Introduced into Australia probably through the introduction of pine trees
I see lots of the YELLOW!!! ONES. Don't recall ever having seen reds.
IM N LOVE!! SO BEAUTFUL ✌
i found a lot like this last fall, they were all yellow (var. guessowii) & 12 to 14" tall
Lucky!!! 🍄
@@AJScraps I dont forage these, my children did have a lot of fun kicking them over though
The yellow ones are another kind.
I wonder who was the first to have the idea of drinking reindeer urine after the reindeer ate amanita muscaria.
I live on a river in northern Ontario ,Canada whitepine growing here as far as the eye see and we get bunches of amanita muscaria also but not that many doh that’s a big batch 🤙 pretty cool!!!
I am usually happy to find one or two lol!
Where abouts in Northern Ontario, I live in Toronto, I just wanna find Amanita one day to identify it haha🙏😇
Hey Eric, what time of year do they fruit where you live? i'm across the pond in the mitten.
@@dougreynolds2813 well salutations earthly brotherin from a far !! we may dwell on different continents but I can imagine if the coordinates are similar in reference to both our locations as weather and temperatures also it's on average the majority of fruiting is throughout the fall here in Northern Ontario CA that seems to be the case I'm noticing
keep in mind I am fairly new at the wild mushroom knowledge game I'm more knowledgeable within the chaga cultivation and mycelium growth (indoors) I'm actually excited for this year because I only learnt bout the amanita muscaria at the end of last season and given a good soaking they grow all over under the big white pines and some are massive can't wait to educate myself further and see first hand the power of this particular mushroom and just exactly what it has to show and teach us .
Sorry, I may have asked this before but don't recall and answer. Is there anything for Alberta that shows where we can go forage legally? I'm in Edmonton and it just feels like farm or protected parks from here to the ocean.
Yeah, the same in Washington. In Europe we can just stop a car a pop in in the forest.
A friend of mine mentioned an app called iHunter that shows where all the crown land is, apparently it is super helpful! There is lots of crown land in Alberta, just gotta know where I guess.
@@FreshCapMushrooms Oh thanks! I'll look into that!
a 7 letter anagram for "amanitas" is "stamina".... and the word "santa" is in there also
"so much growling and grunting" that's just because they're Australian, we're just fucking like this, and we can't help it because we don't notice it until someone from outside mentions it.
And how would you react if you had seen the same number of amanitas but phalloides instead of muscaria?
Where to buy in Italy?
What are the properties of this mushroom? Medicinal, culinary, psych?
This is a can of worms! Lots of nuance required, look out for another video in the near future that covers this topic...
@@FreshCapMushrooms Ok haha I gotcha. Will be on the look out. Thank you!
Bury me here.
Yup. Can hide alot of smurfs in there!! 😂
Are the smaller more potent than the larger?
Wish I leaved where these grow. Make a tincture for micro dosing with it. Donald Teeter of the Ambrosia Society was my mentor.
Why's the sideways camera at a lower frame rate?..
Good catch! That was my fault, had it on the wrong setting :(
Anyway it's fine. People wont really notice it
In Lithuania Dzukija forest the best growing in the world :)))
it's nice to see some Santa 🎅. go Berserk!!
Santamanita muscaria
This happens in my yard yearly
So cool!
You were blessed by God, cherish them.
Maybe it’s Mother Nature telling us we need to check back in with her
Why does nobody ever mention the Mario mushroom...
You know, the 1 he ate that made him grow huge, possibly like Mario was halucinating the world shrinking around him.
I guess we'll never really know quite if that was how that particular shroom got into Mario or if it was purely down to being an iconic shroom.
You brought it up.
Can I botanic acid turn into muscazone from decarboxylation?
I pound dried costs $1700
There's probably 10k worth there
