Sneaky find of subs, found them after all the rain we had in weekend at my usual spot. wondering how many flushes it'll do this season, as this is the 2nd or third flush.

roughly the same as subs from what I remember (it's been a while!), altho that probably doesn't help you much either...

outstanding finds nuishrooma, amazing collection.. libs, subs, wereroa, amazing blue mushrooms.... wow.
Do you know what those blue ones are? Enteloma virescens doesn't have white gills, i don't think it's that. Mycena or Hygrocybe maybe?

Here are a couple of finds from last weekend and tonight. Plenty of subs around and the biggest I've ever seen. (Sorry about the lighting.)


We also successfully transported some into our backyard garden and here's a pic of the patch after a week.

We also managed to try out some Amanitas. We sliced them up, dried them and then made the powder into a tea and all I can say is that the tea was DISGUSTING! I drank about 90% of the glass before I just couldn't do anymore.

Please, please, please post more details with your finds. City you're in, habitat... the usual. It really helps out us greener folk.
Anyone had experience with laughing gyms? Given their lookalikes, I reckon their not worth my time. Also looking forward to the fly A report... good luck keeping them down.

what really helps out the "greener folk" is research. how bout just researching what grows where in what habitats for yourself? Theres a shite load of info on Nz fungi.

Thanks for stating the obvious Dizz but you missed my point.
It's of general interest to me, as I'm sure many. Where the season is booming and where it isn't. So when one guy posts a pic of a sub, ofcourse I know what is was growing from. But when the post nor profile tells me if it's from Auckland or Dunedin, cow paddock or sheep paddock, pine forrest or sand dune. This site then only becomes a photo gallery of "high-five, good on ya!" comments.
But hey excuse me for asking for a bit of info in a FORUM. Didn't mean to wear jandels in you country club.

Hence , as you can see my subs were found in dunedin, in a area with old pine trees, very old pine trees, they tend to grow in the shadier areas that stay moist over the summer period, i assume the mycelium likes it that way. I havent found subs growing in pure pine needles before, but in between grassy hummocks where the pine needles have broken down nicely into the soil. Another good place to look is where pine bark chips are used for landscaping, not the big chunky chips, but the finely shredded stuff that is kinda grey from the resins having been washed out. look around base of little shurbs and stuff where its shady and moist. GOod luck, good hunting up around wellington, and im pretty sure the season should be booming in wellington. Greendrumb

Fair enough dude, though it is their choice if they want high fives or not. Im sure if these people wanted others to know, they WOULD simply put all the info you want stated above.
Anyhow theres no point in this but to let everyone do as they please sharing their info. We all know the rules.

in_decay said: Hey everyone,
Pretty new to mushrooms and the forum. After researching this board and hunting tirelessly for a week i came across some subs last monday and have enjoyed two great trips so far (the one yesterday was DEFINATELY more intense, melting walls, breathing etc). I was afraid i wouldnt be finding any shrooms for a while to come but now i think i have a reliable patch to keep picking from.. So heres what i found:
Great pics man, have you got photoshop? it would help keep the images alot smaller.
They are some huge subs tho! I have found similar sized ones but not so many. What part of nz you in? (dont need to be too specific).
Just some hints (this goes out to all new shroomers) if you find healthy young mushies that arent properly developed i suggest you leave them for a few days to let them grow and drop some spores. This will help keep the patch healthy. Also make sure to tap the caps a few times to release loose spores. And cut or break shrooms at their base, pulling them out can severely damage their mycelial systems.
I went out for a real quick hunt in my backyard just before. I found these, very very happy.
Na yea, only word doc. would work for me, sorry bout that.
I was pretty stoked with them aye, thought id never find any. Im in Wellingotn. Think it would be going alot better down here if it would rain some more..My mates just found some south of auckland so im guessing not every where is like here..

Anyone know the life span of subs? I left the pins in my home patch been a week now and theyve grown a bit plus more pins have popped up around them. Should i leave the bigger ones till the new pins catch up or will they go mouldy? 


Found four large subs at work yesterday too, they had dried out a bit so i dried em right out and put in honey.
