Thanks for posting this, I've been meaning to bug a mod to take my thread out of the archives but I don't even know if that can be done, either way I'm happy to have a mushroom thread. No good winter finds here but I've got pictures from last year I'll get around to uploading, my goal is to find anything in the genus hericium before 2018 is over

the yeti posted:Here's some of my finds lately: https://imgur.com/a/RtIp1Ez Have you tested the bioluminescence on these? I found some last year and had to go in the darkest of closets at night time just to see a faint glow down the gills, I'd like to try it on some more fruiting bodies at different times of year since I'm sure like almost all contents of mushrooms the chemical is going to vary in each new fruiting body. The only issue is I haven't seen any since I got the idea last time.

Kaiser Schnitzel posted:Saw a few things walking in the woods today. Any suggestions on identification would be welcome. Just a guess but it reminds me of how chlorophyllum molybdites look when they get old, which are the #1 mushroom for hospital/ER visits in America last I checked They're toxic and make people poo poo and throw up a lot, but I don't think they kill anybody almost ever. But because of how common they are, people being stupid, and they look like parasols or like a white shaggy parasol rather, people eat them.

POOL IS CLOSED posted:I was up at Lake Luzerne, NY in the Adirondacks to do a fall mushroom foraging class this last weekend. I'm a beginner mushroom hunter and I'll be honest, I don't remember the names of everything we found, but here are some pictures. That sounds like an amazing event, do you remember if that's hericium erinaceus? I've still never seen hericium in person but it looks more like 'lion's mane' than 'bear tooth'. Is the light brown color normal in young fruits? Normally it's the old, very cool either way.

Been a poo poo season so far and I haven't gotten out as much as I did last year but I wanted to thank everyone who shares pictures, it's a small thread here so I don't want to quote every picture and freeze young people's cell phones but they're great Unrelated but I don't think we have an active foraging thread: Did anyone else get entirely hosed on nuts? Between last year being what I call a boon year, I don't know if I heard that somewhere or made it up, but a huge nut yield year, and all the floods these last few months the whole area was just hosed. I'm talking dozens of black walnuts in different parks, private property, opposite sides of town putting out like 0-5 nuts. Hickory yield was poo poo. Didn't see a butternut. Oaks dropped tens of thousands of yellow and black bloated acorns, and early. Squirrels weren't even eating them. Just hoping to find a single hericium and get a doe and I'd be happy at this point.

Kaiser Schnitzel posted:We had chanterelles here all summer when they're usually just around in June/July. Hell yeah nut bud, and yes hickory nuts are probably my #1 nut, shagbark hickory, carya ovata I believe, if you can't get the method down quickly I'd honestly just hit them with a palm sized rock and then pick out the 1-2 chunks that aren't mashed and eat them on the spot (or do it for an hour and fill up a jar for cooking), you can also take all the shells that have some hickory nut mashed in them and pile them on a stump as bait for a squirrel hunt, legal in every state that I'm aware of, even the lovely ones that ban deer baiting A Pack of Kobolds posted:People's lawns are exploding in the Pacific Northwest right now. This is from an oak-lined street on my walk to work this morning. Amanita muscaria is entirely unregulated federally and regulated in only a single state, meaning you can dry those caps and sell them over the internet if you feel like it, meaning you could also PM me if you find a few more preferably not so close to the road extra stout fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Nov 25, 2018 |

Rotten Cookies posted:We get a huge fruiting of chicken of the woods every year, right at the base of a huge oak tree in front of my house. Well, the tree is gone, but the stump is still there. This year's harvest was truly tremendous. Got 20 lbs of harvest from it this year, with a lot left on the stump. Nearby neighbors also have some fruitings at the base of their trees. The 30 lbs was split with 3 of my friends, and we still have a few pounds in the freezer. It freezes pretty okay. I've been told I'm crazy for not trying to sell this, but Still haven't tried these as popular as they are, nice looking harvest though. Why the buffalo sauce? Most of the choice mushrooms people just add a bit of fat to and try to let some of the mushroom flavor stick around. Still, it sounds good. Bi-la kaifa: I'm not sure on the species but at that size it goes without saying I probably wouldn't risk it, still great photographs. Do we have anyone here harvesting nuts this week or last week? I want to make a thread but as usual I'm behind schedule and this subforum seems impossible to revive.
