Erm, that is not good advice Mush313.




Sgt Croucher has been busting pickers a loooong time. No doubt lots of them think he doesn't know where shrooms grow ("If we avoid jayes Rd we will be sweet")

Be CAREFUL!! (unless you want a criminal record)

The rest of Australia is pretty much ok. It's just in Western Australia you can only find the shrooms in a small small area. So they cops scope it out after rain and nab shroomers easy as.

We just have to spread the myc out wider

I'm going down in a week for a look.

Planning on collecting more myc for my tubs at home as well.

These have come up at home in the last week after the rain.

Instead of disrupting a natural patch wouldnt it be better to just take the stem butts from the subs in your home tubs and put them into fresh soaked chips?

I know you'd be carefull but rural bogans get dumb ideas and take shovels to patches. Then transfer to the wrong area/climate.

well if anyone is going to take myc it is better to take a few stem butts from a patch rather than a piece of colonised wood imo.

Yes, it's best to use a knife to cut them but remember the mushroom is just the fruit body

Agreed, Stem butts etc...
Your suggestion is noted.
One should remove the fruits and not the plant.

Got it stuck in my head that it is an introduced species.
Like a weed.

Don't want to disturb surrounding pins by pulling up others in home tubs.

Planning on transplanting myc chunks from 3 tubs to multiple tubs after fruiting stops.

And hopefully after next week (visit down south) new tubs with new stem butts.

if your really worried about disrupting a patch it is actually possible to do the stem but cardboard tek without having the stem buts you can snip when you pick and simply use the stem from the mushrooms between cardboard i have done alot of experimenting with this technique and infact you can use basically any part of the mushroom
even simply placing a cap between cardboard will work any part of the fruiting body placed in cardboard will begin to grow myc from all over it
TRUST ME THIS DOES WORK (it has never failed for me)

i will say that the cap is more likely to rot a little and possibly do some harm to any myc growing from it however this has never completely killed myc for me it has always continued to grow without any real problems but the stem is the best thing to use so even if you cut the buts off when you pik em you dont actually need em place em in the cardboard and check it out after a week or 2 and i can pretty much garauntee you will see myc growing from all over watever it is you have used stems caps whatever

just thought id let people know for those who really dont want to harm a patch at all
good luck  :smile:

Just got back from Balingup, thought you guys might like to see what we found :smile:





I reckon we got close to 800 this year, not bad considering its still relatively early in the season!
These babies are now sitting in around 8 kilos of honey and waiting to be devoured :laugh:

Thats a lot of fungi.


Just got back myself.

Was there for a week.
Managed to sneak away every second day for half hour.
Know of a number of patches that arn't on the dredded mountain.
Found a few new patches as well.

1st Pick
Looked like it had'nt rained much in the last few weeks.



2nd Pick
a few days later it had rained well



3rd Pick
A few more days later, They were everywhere.



Did'nt pick everything I saw. Left lots.
Made new spots so as too keep the myc spreading.

If you had seen how many there were in this one patch, you would understand why we picked so many! literally thousands of them everywhere. We picked only the mature and hence would of left about 3/4 of what we saw...

Some of the patches are on that road.
Others I've spored up in previous years and are in different areas.
Every year I make new patches, all close to water so the myc will survive through summer.

Mush313, did all yours come from the mountain?

I try to avoid the mountain.
Have been buzzed by the constabulary a few times, as I don't go on private property they keep driving and leave me alone.
Looking like your bushwalking helps, also carrying a camera.
I also hide what I pick as I go so if I get busted I have nothing on me.

Nice pics! If you want to make your life 1 million times easier, take some scissors with you and clean each specimen as you collect - it really doesnt take long in the field, and when you get home you have a bag of clean fresh mushrooms that are ready to do whatever you want with. Cleaning a huge haul after picking all day is not fun at all...

Also, honey is a nice way to prepare them dont get me wrong - but its certainly not the best way. Putting fresh mushrooms straight into honey introduces a huge amount of water into the honey (the fruit bodies are 90% water) inviting bacteria and funk.

Next time lay your shrooms out on paper or a towel, put a fan on them for 2 days and let them shrink right down before putting them in the honey. Thsi is best in a warm room with a heater or by the fire... Another huge benefit of this is that all the little mushroom bugs will die and be left behind on the paper before you put them in the honey.

Or even better, dry them out under a fan first then put them into a food dehydrator to finish off the drying process - they will be nice and crispy dry, and can be stored for months in ziplock bags.

Thanks for the tips! we usually eat some as we pick so thats why we leave the manicuring till after haha

And the only reason we didnt dry them before we put them in honey is because i thought they would lose their potency? also will keeping it in the freezer stop mold?
