1000's in front yard in Seattle...Liberty Caps...or look alikes?!

#9154116 - 10/29/08 12:58 PM (15 years, 5 months ago)

Sorry about the Word Doc download being almost 10mb. Figured more pictures were better than less! Any insight will be helpful and thanks!!!

Habitat:
Growing mostly out of wood chips, so I think it might be those Lawnmower ones that are look-alikes.

Gills:
Light brown, some really light brown. I will check the gills tonight and edit this, I think NOT connected.

Stem:
Length varies but about 3 inches or so. Whitish color. Will check if hollow tonight.

Cap:
Diameter ranges around 1 inch to 1.5 inches. Brown, light brown and a couple of patches, the color has changed to almost purple/black/really dark. They don't appear to have any slime stuff when I pulled the cap apart. Shaped like a libery cap it looks like, but not quite as pronounced as some pics I've seen of them.

Spore print color:
I will have to get this and add it.

Bruising:
Bruises a bit dark, but can't say blue and I can check this tonight.

Other information:
Got pics, but can get more. Just tell me what you more you need.

Well wood chips and soil and bark, but yeah...wood chips mostly.

That's what I figured, but never hurts to check. :smile:

Do some more research. Active mushrooms grow abundantly in Seattle.
