Cubensis grow naturally where I live (brazilian countryside). Those are the ones that showed themselves to me today

The cubensis? If so do enjoy!

THE Cubensis :D I collect them every year in December / January, dry them and use it during the year. Although magic mushrooms are legal in Brazil (you can buy them legally online) I prefer consuming the ones I found in the nature

Are you sure they are Cubensis? Looks more like Azurescens to me

Good question. Some of them look like Azurescens, but I believe they are all Cubensis. Their heads are not pointy, the colors are not as bright as Azurescens photos that I saw (never saw one IRL), the region is known for Cubensis (Azurescens are common in North America) and they were in horse's poo (Cubensis are cropophagous) and not wood (like you would expect a Azurescens). But I would love them to be Azurescens, they are stronger and I have never tried them

Yes, the substrate is very important in the identification, in that case I agree with you.
