Unknown Gym plus looks like a gym?
    #18091495 -

growing in mulch
the clear gym smells like the classic gym while the other one sorta like one but a bit sweet  and tasted really messed up , i think it got sprayed with lawn chems, the mulch stuff was really tiny mostly pins

i didnt have a camera handy but will get pictures in two days.

they make me think of sapineus


sample one a clear gym




i had a dried pin but it feel thru  a tiny hole in the box i put it in. no real signs of bluing tho , gona check the pins in a few days

not quite sure
and on lawn

was the first one growing on the mulch and the others on the lawn or vice versa??

1 might be Gymnopilus.
a better picture would help...
but there appears to be a rusty brown veil.
was this gorwing in the lawn??
were there trees nearby??

the second ones look like a Hypholoma species.
mulch or lawn??

yeah thats what i was going for lawn one Hypholoma i was gona say it reminds me alot of sulfer turf but looks different similar very similar but different species for sure. its lawn spores were almost black looking on the cap but i could totally side with dark brown they arnt dropping on the slide

the first one is a gym 100% the smell right the hypholoma smell sweeter and lack that proper gym smell. im letting the gym grow now ill go back in 2 days, the pins were gym like the pin better shows what it is, it taste right too. totally has veil


yeah i doubted they could be the same species but just wanted the confirmation. ill update when i get the gyms which are mulch. im really not used to gyms in mulch i only used to see em on trees or stumps. now ovoids i some times see em on lawn bordering mulch , wine caps too , but rare

Pholiota species is possible also.
The gills look off for Gymnopilus IMHO.

do Pholiota  have the gym like smell from my experience Pholiota's smell different

the one u mentioned no way.

i guess for me , i may sound stupid or what ever by gyms never get all pale or flimsy and what not after picked they they stay strong, firm and orange and sometimes get blue green my highly potent Big L gyms didnt turn blue until after 3 and a half weeks, being kept in a fridge or hat box that breathes its important to let em breath


it became increasing apparent what it as they got all pale and looked like the sulfur tho i dont think they are that species just really similar


btw they are in now way spumosa i looked at them in different stages of growth

Unfortunately your photos aren't of sufficient quality to tell for sure. Any better photo of the gills? Get a spore print?

Your wishful thinking worries me a little. I don't want to see you get hurt. I doubt your mushrooms are a Gymnopilus sp. but do as you will. If they were Gymnopilus the gills would be a much brighter orange color, those gills looks dirty brown to me. :shrug:
Be careful my friend.

ok ok looking at pix of MO of spumosa kinda do fit it  abit but not other images

its not that gills that look funny to me as much as the cap

only only experienced with Big L gyms and luetes and some red one i wish i took better pictures and spore collection for identification. they were really strong with hard visuals.

i have never eaten a gym that wasnt active to use the worse possible picture of my first gym find






any who here you go i gona have change my mind now seeing how the cap looks but i could be wrong they are pretty immature to try to get spores so ill wait

good advice my friend. funny though for years i was scared of Pholiotas and it turns out some of them and relatives( Keuhneromyces)  are edible and actually cultivated! blew me away! :lol:

personally i wouldnt try to form any conclusion with out the spores and consider it to hard to say granted theirs so many types of gyms

so far i have seen 3 species of inactive gyms i never encountered here before and yes orange spores
