While you'd expect this of any tan barked garden, the fact that the new mulch is exactly as long as the sub growth, and even goes a bit deeper into the garden bed where the mushies are usually at their densest suggests to me that the council is targeting subs here.
So my questions - will an established mycelium survive having an extra 20cm of fresh woodchips dumped on it, and secondly has anyone else noticed this sort of practice by council?
I have one of my best patches with an amazing amount of subs a couple of years back the council started spraying the patches with some sort of insecticide or something and killed all of them. Then after the season would finish they would dump new mulch. That's the only thing I have encounted it is a real fuckin shame.

Anyone experienced paralysis from your endeavours?
If so, have you been tested for anaemia?

And I am definately not anemic. I have had regular blood tests over the years and anemia has never been an issue for me personally.

Good Afternoon Shroomites!


Here are more of the large soaked ones like the other day. I grabbed these for spore prints to spread back in to the local parks. These are too soggy IMO to do much with, besides prints and spreading spores..

I haven't done it before but I was going to do what I saw on here. Take the spore paper and paper towel and scrape them in a spray bottle with water and spread the wealth into mulch beds, leaf debris and fallen tree bark areas in the forest and around local parks. Do you have any sure fire ways to do it? I was going to do a few thread searches for other ways as well.

Thanks. It's taken me 4 of the last 5 years researching to find anything beside Amanita Muscaria, Saffron Milk Caps, Slippery Jacks and a few others. To think how many times I was in the same immediate area too.

I'm not partial to seeing 'epic hauls' but I appreciate dedicated people who keep at things and finally have success. Congrats on your finds TheBlueprint.

It's nice to see people with persistence in their endeavours.
Went for a nice stroll today and came up upon these beauties. I am pretty sure they're P. Subs but the bigger ones (pic 4) always seem to make me question myself.

Left the pins to let them mature more, but thought thought the photo was worth sharing.
Also, this photo below, does anyone know what type of mushroom (if it is one) it is? I accidently stepped on one before and black powder shot out the top of it. Very interesting.

Happy Hunting all
