What makes caps turn (appear) gold after drying?
    #19269081 - 12/13/13 01:51 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I have spent a lot of time studying mycology.  One thing that I am curious about, have searched about, and have not found an answer to, is why a lot of active mushrooms' caps turn gold.

Does anyone know??

Thank you!!!

Try hitting up the mycology forums man :smile:

My guess is Harry Potter. Seriously though mushrooms are mostly water and the shriveling effect when they dry may have something to do with it...

but try the mycology forums Advanced Mycology might help

btw I have seen plenty of non-actives turn gold. Wine Caps and P. antillarum are 2 examples. And koods above has blue ones!
