Types:

Don't call them "magic mushrooms"! Did you know there are over 100 different types of psychedelic mushrooms? We discuss Azurescens, Cyanescens (Wavy Cap), Semilanceata (Liberty Cap), and Cubensis. We are in the Pacific Northwest, so the discussion of psychedelic mushrooms centers on those found predominantly in this region. Did you know psychedelic mushrooms can be found all over in the Pacific Northwest, including in urban areas?
