Those closeups are very odd looking. That stuff looks more like cobweb than mycelia.

It remains a mystery but i have found the antidote -vinegar extraction....after having 5 allergic reactions in a row , now they are beautiful and clean ....life is good.....

vinegar eh ?
hmmm.

This pic looks like the beginnings of a pin mold no? Maybe black pin or black bread mold (rhizopus)?

Hmm, pickled mushroom. Maybe with a little garlic and olive oil?

Seriously, do you extract into full strength vinegar? Simmer?

Turns out, the Vinegar does not help after all...Ever since that one Redboy grow - i have
remained alergic to Shrooms and their extracts..
The reaction is directly proportional to the trip strength ,not the mushroom mass..I can eat up to around two grams dry and control the side effects easily with antihistamine..

I have read, that a person can suddenly and forever become allergic to certain things..
Still i believe the cause was some kind of mushroom parasite/mold...
Panaeolus has the same effect -and that really pisses me off ..Heh...So i'm growing Cactus now ...

But i still eat a gram or so, every week with some kratom...

curanderos in the amazon report a "healing phlegm" while using various entheogens, including shroomies. mebbe ur system is just clearing out the gunk.

Mushrooms *always* make me cry real tears. Liquid pouring out from everywhere - profusely runny nose, and alot of congestion towards the back of my throat to where sometimes it's even hard to breathe. A couple hours later, it clears up. wierd. but it is disgusting. and definitely not romantic.
I've been considering getting a special mushroom hankie !!!

One very strange effect is that around 90 mins in, all the colors become red and purple
with the onset of the allergy..After about 4 hours the full spectrum of color returns as the allergy subsides...Sweird i tell ya....

could also be an allergy to mold spores.
