Hericium Questions
    #6128189 - 10/03/06 11:36 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

Hi I have some hericium's coming back in the same spot as last year. What I'm wondering is what can I look for too tell maturity,.. or aging. I want to let them grow too there fullest and till I get my camera. They look damn good now, pearly white and smell delicious. Ones about the size of a vollyball and the other bout the size of a softball. Let me know.

I usually harvest upon the first sign of discoloration which means keeping a fairly close watch. Hopefully you can check them at least once a day or so.
I recently found few nice logs producing H. ramosum. Tempted to muscle them home for convenience and an attempt to maximize fruiting conditions.

I'd probably just pick em. The larger one at least. Once they start to discolor, the flavor rapidly declines. I've heard it describes as going "sour with age" Congrats on the finds :smile:
