Mushroom foragers

They look like false parasol. I tried my id program but the grass over them and shadows made that hard to use.

And a quick check says they are greenish spores.

yes greenish spores on them. Thats what i thought too on them.
Oh well, time to kick them not eat them.

These are easy to grow . They just pop up in sawdust . I call them deer mushrooms .

I saw a very large cluster/ patch of Jack O' Lanterns today in a campsite at work. I bet they look really awesome at night!

Found a few giant puff balls the other day.

It is dryer than a popcorn fart out there!

Did a 3 hour trek around those 3 little lakes Ralphie and Jerry and found some COW. But none of the primo chanterelles or Hens. Left the cow. Came home and mowed the lawn and voila... there was some shaggy manes. Have never tried and I can see why people bread them. The sort of fry up super thin and the salt I put on them — well it was like a salt wafer. They are good but I like my Chants and trumpets and Dancing mushroom.

I’m super excited about my foraging knife. I spoiled myself here a little bit this late summer. I wish I could say I’ve been using it like crazy. But I cannot. It’s collecting dust in my purse.
Well let it Rain I say.

I checked for hen of the woods . Nothing yet . Rain would help . When conditions are right they will grow . I have been seeding oak stumps and waiting . I have one that produces .

 

[duluthralphie]

I am sure I have hen in my spots. And trumpets. But alas I am tied down.

WE got an old fallen down tree hat produces oyster mushrooms like crazy, when we get a very damp few days it blows up. Im talking like a milk pail full of shrooms easily. What I don't cook with at the time ill freeze dry and store for later. Yes I know I could just put them in a bag and dry them out in the fridge but these gets so huge and are so wet i don't want to risk them getting moldy so the dryer is best for them i think.

hopefully it blows up here in the next week or so

My yard is loaded with a ton of different mushrooms. I have no clue what any of them are or if they're edible (except the jack o lanterns... those are from work and I know they're not edible)
