Not far, less than 10 Km.

Interesting.... I wonder how far North of the NSW border they can be found. Obviously mushrooms don't just stop right on the border, so I think it's safe to say there probably is a population of those sort of subs in SE QLD, but not a huge amount like down here. I would also assume that they would grow much further in land well away from the coast. Where as down here, I have several patches less than 100 metres away from the sea water.

Hi All,

I went for a stroll in the woods today, found a few subs that I could positively identify and then these suspected subs but which were growing straight from wood. I had not seen this before so I am spore printing now.

Spore prints tell me that they are all definitely subs. Can anyone else give an example of subs growing straight from wood?

I am truly amazed. I found my best finds ever today. Biggest subs I have ever seen in person.

My mum has bought a block of land down South about 15 minutes past Snug. Today I went for a drive down there with her to see on the progress of the house. While she was looking at the house, I went looking for mushrooms at the bottom of the property. There is a large grassy field with a few gum tress scattered around. I followed the fence line on the right all the way down to the bottom where I came across a good looking sub habitat - lots of decaying tree litter, bracken ferns and blackberry bushes. I found a lot of different inactives as I made my way over to the left fence line, but nothing active.

I was just about to give up, but thought I'd take a quick look behind a gum tree. Unfortunately, nothing. As I was coming back from the gum tree, literally a foot in front of me I saw the familiar golden/orange cap of a sub. Immediately I began to see more and more of these in the area. Only they weren't like the normal subs I find - these were absolutely huge! Check them out.




Sorry for the pics... Shroomery seems to rotate them the wrong way when I upload...

They were all growing solitary, but all within the same general area. Roughly a 4 metre radius. Growing from grass with many, many gum leaves littered around.

The largest one I picked has a cap which is longer than a standard bic lighter... very impressive if you ask me.


I wish I had have taken more pictures of them in their habitat. It was truly an amazing sight. As I was with my mum I was pressed for time and unprepared. I picked as many as I could and loaded my pockets full, leaving behind many mature specimens and many many pins. As we were driving back we stopped off in Margate and while my Mum went into a shop I got the mushrooms into a ziplock bag I had in my car.

Ended up with a little over half a kilo wet. There are a few maggots and other bugs in some of the larger ones, but by the time they're dry the maggots will be long gone.

I'll be going back next weekend, but I'll be prepared. Will get some good pictures and hopefully a bigger haul.

These bush subs are larger than 99% of the subs I find in my urban/semi urban patches. I can do find some good sized mushrooms on my urban patches, but not nearly as big as these ones. Once though, I did find two very big subs in a park. They were growing just off into the dirt after a large woodchip bed, and were in a very small clearing amongst amongst a cluster of a small leafy plant. They were huge subs, but so old and rotten I couldn't pick them - I knew they would be infested with bugs and maggots and it looked as though the stems would break just by gently poking it with a finger. I do have some pics of them somewhere though.

I also found these bad boys too, which have been ID'd as potential Panaelous sp.

Will collect and print these next week also.

Finds from this morning at the local park...  Not as big as yesterday's finds, but still not too bad. Actually, the largest of today's finds is not even close to the weight of yesterday's smallest find.

Nice finds Nevermind! Always good finding a new patch. Went for a look today myself and found the biggest patch I have ever found. Harvested about 2kg wet. Probably left the same amount there of very old an young ones.




Some really big subs in there. Biggest I have ever seen!!

Hey The duck. If you look back through this forum even on the last page (15) Subhunter found some subs growing directly from a stick. Also back further Blessed found some really nice ones growing from wood also.

What else would they grow from :tongue2:

What kind of wood was it? If you're unsure and need an ID you should take pictures and post to the forums here to be safe.

I did have a photo of a big cluster growing from a tree stump but i must of deleted it. Heres an old photo of one growing off a small log :mushroom2:

I very rarely find them growing directly from wood, although I did post a pic on the last page of one growing directly off a piece of wood.

Generally though they grow from the ground, but it's pretty safe to assume it's wood-rich soil they are growing from. Every now and then though the mycelium will colonize larger pieces of wood and the subs will grow directly off the wood, but it's more common to find them growing from the ground.

They are saprophytic, so they derive all their nutrients from woody plant material.

they colonise that layer of plant debre on the ground, so old bark, sticks, leaves etc.  i find them in sticks, bark, sawdust piles where people have been cutting up wood, the wood turned over in forestry sites, etc.

they grow from the ground because they have hit a boundary and cannot spread any further from that point so this is where they pin and then fruit.

Nice work Nevermind and Bagurk!

Bagurk
Did you end up picking any of the Amanita muscaria? I've been picking loads and drying them out (dehydrator) - going to save them for summer so I can leave them in the sun for decarboxylation.


Today's harvest:
Today I returned to the patch I found on the outskirts of a deforested area and found many many more patches of P. subaeruginosa - I have hit jackpot and can't wait to find even more glorious patches.

Habitat Shots:

I found many subs surrounding this Eucalyptus tree.


Amongst deadwood.





Close ups:
Marvel at the perfect white ring.






Beware Beware:
I believe these are: Hypholoma fasciculare (The Sulphur Tuft mushroom)


The rest is history:


Now go get some scissors and get out there!

Beautiful photo's Bagurk, and welcome to shroomery :smile:

Those photo's make me want to move to Tasmania someday, look's like some nice land you are living on.  :mushroom2:

Nice pics bcaapi, look's like a really nice area and some perfect specimens, and everyone else in this thread too :cheers:

To be honest I have never tried them, but have been reading a bit since joining the forum on the experience, and it is tempting (I am not new to psychedelics in a multitude of forms).

Signeg : Thanks for the welcome :smile: Yes, a strip of the paddock near the end of the drive has hundreds of these fellas (old fill), but even so I am making up a LC atm after deciding to learn a little more about them :wink: I love them so thought I better get a bit closer to their whole cycle, what better way than to coax them thru it :smile:

Bagurk

Even if you don't have a chance to enjoy their psychoactivity, you can still enjoy their culinary value. They are really delicious.

Have you read this well-circulated article?

"A Study of Cultural Bias in Field Guide Determinations
of Mushroom Edibility Using the Iconic Mushroom, Amanita muscaria..."

http://www.davidarora.com/uploads/muscaria_revised.pdf

This article also explains how the mushroom can be prepared safely for non-psychoactive consumption.

Thanks so much for the link!! I am definitely going to try them, there is so many here it's not funny ... a stand of pine on one boundary has them reaching into the paddock all along it.

I will definitely look into both aspects :smile: First, build knowledge :smile:

thanks again
