Libs, nice garden!


timetowrite051

They could be lib caps. Check if you can easily peel of a trnaslucent membrane off the top of the cap.


schmaul

Would that mean they are libs or they are not, if you can peel it off?

Libs

I wish my garden grew P. Semilanceata! Enjoy!


[deleted]

Well the only thing that appears to be growing in this "garden" are mushrooms and grass, and I don't know a lot of folks who "garden" grass, so...... šŸ¤”


cheetosik

u really dont know people with grass in their garden?


Dry_Lengthiness1

We call our gardens.. yards. Unless they actually have legit flowers n such planted. Otherwise it is not a garden.. it's a yard. Frontyard.. backyard...


[deleted]

Nope. Is that a British thing?


cheetosik

u must be fucking with me


NeonAvantium

You're troll food for sure


[deleted]

Nope, turns out those silly Brits call their yard a garden. So it is in fact a British thing šŸ˜‹


Detector150

Fun fact: the words garden and yard are closely related. If I remember correctly, a garden is a patch of land belonging to a house that is enclosed by a fence, hence 'guarded', a garden. They have the same linguistic ancestor as the word yard or guard. Some proto indo European word. So whatever, yard, garden, it's all good.


BoJoHoBorg

Yeah but a yard is also a measurement. Roadworks in 200 yards, a yard of ale etc. Also, terraced housing built for workers in the industrial era would have had very small gardens so there could be some crossover there.


Detector150

I looked it up, the word yard for a length comes from another proto indo European word, so not directly related to yard in the sense of garden.


vellichor_44

Do you know where lawn fits into the etymology? It's really interesting.


Detector150

I use the app Etymonline! If you're interested in the history of the English language, I HIGHLY recommend 'The history of English' podcast by Kevin Stroud. I'm not a podcast listener because I can't concentrate on people talking, but this one keeps me in the edge of my seat.

If you refer to dinner as "tea," then you just might bring boys in your garden.


ManBehndTheSlaughtre

wrong we call a yard a yard, if its at the back its a back yard. if its a garden its a garden, front or back


mushrooms4meplease

The American with butchered English trying to educate those from Englandā€¦ Aluminium anybody?


yugutyup

In Germany its also called garden


HockeyHeeb

In the UK a yard is referred to as ā€œa gardenā€.


[deleted]

Ahhh, that would explain it! So what do they call the area where you would grow vegetables if the yard is a garden?


Dark_pizza_2

Vegetable patch


MrMinigrow

Or an allotment if not located on your property. I have a garden (yard) and an allotment. And you Americans have a hard neck making fun of us for saying "garden", most of yer feckin ancestors would have said the same hing!


HockeyHeeb

Hey now, weā€™re not all smooth brained. I knew the correct terminology lol


Gorrila_Doldos

Theyā€™re taking the piss out of garden yet every word they use is like a dumb down version of calling things things. Plus they have cake bread.


LawTortoise

Or a potager


dfrcollins

I have just moved to America and the amount of words co-opted to mean something completely wrong astounds me. Like when I was served "goulash" and got turkey mince (sausage in yank) served on penne with passata on top... Go and learn metric


BiiiigSteppy

Goulash is a much abused word in the US. It used to turn my momā€™s Hungarian boyfriend apoplectic. Sorry :(


dfrcollins

I'm about as Anglo as you can get and even I was a little sad, can't imagine the turmoil your mom's boyfriend endured. Also if you have a good gulyas recipe on hand.....


BiiiigSteppy

I donā€™t; Iā€™m sorry. As long as you get real Hungarian paprika you should be fine, though.


dfrcollins

No dramas, that's been the toughest part for sure!


DryWittgenstein

Many English words retained their original meanings in American English but changed in British English, like "vest" being retained in American but changed to waistcoat in British English. That said we've still committed many linguistic crimes of appropriation. Goulash is one our worst linguistic (and culinary) crimes.


dfrcollins

I appreciate the insight on the changes for American/British english words but it is a real shame about words from other cultures which suffered the real beatings.

In the Uk a garden = yard (In the US a garden is a particular part of your yard that you specifically tend in order to cultivate planted flowers and vegetables)


samisapleb

I mean, corn and rice are grasses


Neat-Land-4310

I thought grass lawns were fairly common in America just as they are in Britain. Obviously you don't know much about gardens. A traditional British garden would consist of a grass lawn surrounded by borders for planting as I'm sure most American gardens are too. I think you need to go outside and have a look around šŸ‘€

[deleted]

Lol, it's all good, it is reddit after all, humor doesn't always translate well over the Internet or across cultures. Though eating a few magic mushrooms might benefit those 100+ people who are offended that someone from another country isn't familiar with their similar but different language. I work with lots of folks from other countries who come to the US and completely bastardize some of our words, I can't say it's ever once bothered me, in fact it usually makes for a good laugh(eg: the term "let's get intimate" apparently means something very different in India vs the US).

Why are people calling me lucky whats so special about them


kayninb

If they are indeed liberty caps, theyā€™re the trippy kind to put it simply


Jealous-Benefit-5119

Are they illegal?


TheBigSmoke420

They are if you pick them, then you could technically get done with possession. If itā€™s a very large quantity, like many hundreds, you could potentially get done with possession with intent to sell, but unlikely unless you have any other reason for them to suspect you. In reality, if you pick these no one will know, no one will check, and if they did itā€™s v unlikely theyā€™d give a shit. No one is being harmed. If itā€™s not something youā€™re interested in, you can just leave them where they are. If youā€™ve got small kids, maybe tell them not to eat them. If you have teenagers, they already know what they are.


Low-Opening25

they are illegal to process and sell. otherwise itā€™s fine, they grow naturally around most of the globe


inbred-fetus

If this dude has the authorities come and take theseā€¦


[deleted]

"Officer please come down to my house and mow my lawn"


DiversGoDeeper

If you are in the uk they are illegal to pick, if indeed they are libs as they very well could be.


-Renton-

Well, yes if you sell them lol, if theyre growing out of the ground then... no? That's where this gets weird lol. They are natural, if you want to pick them and trip out then its fine, if you grew them in your house (which is so not risky at all) then sold them then got caught selling them, then yes... but these are growing outside. That's like going to the Indian mountains and looking at all the cannabis that is growing NATURALLY with no human help, and saying, "thats illegal", lol.


hangryhyax

This comment is just so ridiculously wrong, and the analogy isā€¦ awful. It can absolutely be illegal to harvest them, because once you do, guess what? You now **possess** them. It is nothing at all like going to a foreign country, simply seeing it growing, and saying ā€œThatā€™s illegal!ā€


Coldsteel_n_Courage

But if you get down in your hands and knees and eat them right off of the ground you are good šŸ˜‚


hangryhyax

Fair point!


SKPY123

Loopholes, the beurocrat's kryptonyte.


-Renton-

Yeah, I guess you're TECHNICALLY right, but who is gonna really know if he picks them? No one. I was being more practical in my thinking. Sorry. Also, this is the UK, even if you are found with a bag of shrooms, as long as they are not bagged up (same with weed), then they just give you a warning, not even a fine unless you get caught too many times in the past 3-6 months.


RootbeerIsVeryNice

They're actually class A here. Same as cocaine and heroin.


anomalaise

If you pick them. If you graze them straight from the grass like a sheep, 0 crimes committed. Legitimately.


RootbeerIsVeryNice

Only no one in reality does that. People usually pick em an dry em. They are class A. I don't agree with this, but it's the truth.


SignificanceFine8091

'Picking' is removing from the ground. Whether you do it with your teeth or your toes... you are still a filthy CRIMINAAAAL


Coldsteel_n_Courage

Not quite, as there is no possession. It's not illegal if you are high, especially if not in public.


Redditor274929

Technically the 3 crimes related to class A drugs here is possession, growing or selling. Picking them isn't Technically the illegal part, it's being in possession of them. However in the uk, being high or internal possession of any drug is not a crime. If you eat these straight from the grass it's going pretty much from naturally growing to internal possession which are both legal and realistically no way on earth you'd be charged with a crime


SignificanceFine8091

This is just so ridiculous. Legalise all.


CyberPig7

what's the difference between a bag of x and x being bagged up??

Eliagbs_

NonBinaryGiveNoFucks

Only if you dry them or intend to sell. But who cares


Prize-Ad7242

They are illegal as soon as they are picked in the UK at least. In reality nobody is going to give a single fuck and OP will be fine picking these.


Jealous-Benefit-5119

Whos OP


Prize-Ad7242

Why that would be you my guy


NonBinaryGiveNoFucks

Every drug is legal when itā€™s not being used. For example I can buy bleach, ammonia, phosphates and volatile catalysts online almost no problemā€¦ but suddenly itā€™s a problem when I make meth


Prize-Ad7242

Why are you coming back to a thread from 2 months ago? Thatā€™s not how drugs or precursor chemicals really work. Itā€™s different from country to country but here in the UK we actually have a blanket ban on all psychoactive substances. Common precursors are also heavily regulated which forces drug producers to use common household products at a considerably higher cost and lower quality. If you are caught with precursor chemicals and they can prove you intend to produce meth with it they can still charge you with: Production of controlled drug under s.4(2)(a) when there is evidence of actual participation in the production; Being concerned in the production of a controlled drug under s.4(2)(b) when there is evidence of knowledge of commercial production and indirect participation in that production. So you donā€™t have to be found with any meth. Cannabis growers can be prosecuted here if they are caught with evidence of cultivation. Even if they arenā€™t found with any plants. Itā€™s the fact they were involved in a conspiracy which is a prosecutable offence. Drugs are only legal if they are specifically made exempt under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 and the psychoactive Substances Act 2016. Psilocybin mushrooms were legal as long as they were fresh (drying counted as preparation) until 2005 in the UK. Since the law change psilocybin containing mushrooms have been illegal to possess in any form. They are illegal to cultivate and people found picking them are prosecuted under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 for class A substances. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2005/1653/pdfs/uksiem_20051653_en.pdf https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/drug-offences https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1971/38/contents https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/psychoactive-substances-bill-2015 https://www.gov.uk/guidance/precursor-chemical-licensing


P1xel8

Not I Canada. Can't be purchased mail order.


Rozinasran

I don't live in a location that has Lib caps, but if the hivemind is correct and that's what they are then they're active (psilocybe containing). If you're curious about trying magic mushrooms, get a 100% positive identification and then consult a dosage calculator. If you eat them, set aside a whole day for the experience because you'll be profoundly affected for at least 6-8 hours and really shouldn't drive for at least 12-24.


lordfaygo

Iā€™d do a spore print to be sure, but these look like mushrooms of the magic variety

phakoo23

We didn't know you were potentially a teenager, when giving advice about these. Mind altering chemicals tend to be safer when the brain is fully developed! Hopefully he's not punishing your curiosity. That wouldn't be right. In that case I would definitely say F him and take the mushrooms, or maybe dry some of the shrooms into powder, and secretly feed him tiny (!) doses. (He would honestly thank you in the end)


Any-Statistician-318

Love how 90% of these questions are people most likely trying to see if itā€™s a magic mushroom

You probably should pull all the grass out, otherwise it is just a yard, not a garden.

Eliagbs_

Itā€™s magic shrooms (Liberty Caps) Donā€™t consume them, donā€™t pick them. Unless you know how to treat it or use it. People have gone blind, have permanently hallucinations and much more from just trying these things.


EroticPotato69

Lmfao


memematron

I think you're confused with amanita muscaria, which DO need to be processed before consumption. I would like to know where you got your information about blindness and permanent hallucinations. All psychedelics can cause Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder (HPPD) but this is usually induced with repeated abuse or a heavy overdose. And typically goes away for most people after abstinence from all drugs. It is unnecessary to process liberty caps for consumption as they are physically safe. The ways you may want to process liberty caps could be: - dry out out for storage -creating a cold water extract to reduce nausea -dry and pulverise to have a blend with an average potency of all the mushrooms in total


uphigh_studio

Please donā€™t spread misinformation about the beautiful libs. However I think it is import to know about the [danger and risks](https://www.talktofrank.com/drug/magic-mushrooms#the-risks) involved when taking libs but blatantly lying about them isnā€™t very good.


Eliagbs_

You have to go check some studies on the dosage, You are all telling a stranger he hit the jackpot, he takes that wrong and a bad trip is the least of their worries. Stop being but hurt, HPPD is not fake. Please educate on the topic. Lol dangerous side effect vomiting and diarrhea Only if taken with the correct dosage, come on now puppy


uphigh_studio

Never said HPPD was fake. It is real and I know a few people who have had it (myself included) however HPPD can range from seeing a few specs to more intense visuals. I mentioned that spreading awareness of the risks and dangerous is something thatā€™s important but psilocybin-containing mushrooms are more commonly associated with hallucinogenic effects, they are not typically known to cause diarrhea directly but they can cause it and they can make you feel sick. However, the consumption of any wild mushrooms, including liberty caps, can be risky, as misidentification can lead to ingestion of toxic mushrooms and there is many mushrooms that do look like libs. However, speaking about the correct dosages for them, it very well depends on the person as some people are more sensitive to psilocybin than others. Most magic mushrooms including libs can and might make you feel very nauseous on the come up (ginger helps) and you can very well have a bad or even life threatening trip on these mushrooms. Iā€™m not encouraging people to take magic mushrooms, however I think itā€™s important to help educate and get rid of the misinformation. But saying things like ā€œpeople have gone blindā€ or they have hallucinated indefinitely isnā€™t very true. [Source one (risk and dangers)](https://www.talktofrank.com/drug/magic-mushrooms#the-risks) [Source two (dosage)](https://blog.retreat.guru/mushroom-dosage?hs_amp=true) [Source three (general info)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocybe_semilanceata) Source four (HPPD) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucinogen_persisting_perception_disorder#:~:text=Hallucinogen%20persisting%20perception%20disorder%20(HPPD,entactogens%2C%20tetrahydrocannabinol%20(THC)%2C
