Firstly hello! Thank you for taking the time to click my thread. Today I embarked on my very first mushroom pick. I've only ever consumed mushrooms prepared by friends, or in capsules, so my knowledge is very limited. Though I had a blast today, and I'm looking forward to learning more and gathering as much knowledge on these beauties as I can!

#1
Habitat:
Mountainous area, dense forest. This specific one we found underneath some trees, it a large cluster in the fallen bark/leaves/dirt. Quite cold, day after a night of rain.

Gills:
Dark brown gils.

Stem:
Thin, short (overall size of these guys was quite small). Quite fragile.

Cap:
Small ranging from 1/2-2cm's. Conical, with some gils seeming to run on the top of the caps. Ranging from almost white with a brown spot, to greyish/brown with a brown spot.

Spore print color:
Will post when collected

Bruising:
Haven't noticed any bruising yet, can post at a later date.









2#
Habitat:
Mountainous area, dense forest. This specific one we found growing on a fallen tree, coming off the log itself. Quite cold, day after a night of rain.

Gills:
Brown gils, not very deep, quite narrow, not much spacing between gils.

Stem:
Sort of thick, very bent stems, as if it grew sideways off the log but the cap would still be facing vertically.

Cap:
Ranging from deep brown to lighter brown, slimey cap.

Spore print color:
Will post when collected (in the process of)

Bruising:
Haven't noticed any bruising yet, can post at a later date.







#3
Habitat:
Mountainous area, dense forest. Growing at the base of a log.

Gills:
Deep, separated gils. Browny reddish in colour, same as cap.

Stem:
Fairly straight, medium thickness, filled stem.

Cap:
Browny reddish coloured, Some conical, some flatter. Not generally perfectly rounded edges.

Spore print color:
Will post when collected (in the process of)

Bruising:
Haven't noticed any bruising yet, can post at a later date.









#4
Habitat:
Mountainous area, less dense forest. Found roadside in some bark/fallen leaves. This one was a single, not fruit at all. Couldn't find any like this. I am taking spores so perhaps I could grow more from the spores if it is active?

Gills:
White! Very symmetrical.

Stem:
Long straight stem, seemingly stronger than other picks but broke in transit.

Cap:
Quite reflective, very dark brown almost black in some lights. Slimey and wet.

Spore print color:
Will post when collected (in the process of)

Bruising:
Haven't noticed any bruising yet, can post at a later date.







We have now set up the spore print collection and are drying off the other collected mushrooms. Hopefully some of them are identifyable (and active!), but if not I have enjoyed the process and will have a better idea next time I go out picking!
Thank you again for taking the time to read my thread! Good day!



Jono.

No actives. Wait for a TI to come along and ID them all.

Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.

First ones look close to Coprinellus disseminatus.

I found some more today, I don't think that they are active but they too look cool. Anyone know what they are?

They were both found in simmilar locations to the rest. High altitude, dense forest area on tree logs or base of trees.
Unable to do spore prints on these due to discretion issues this evening.

#1b
Notable features: Grew in clusters. Yellow stems, very rubbery to touch the stems.









#2b
Notable features: Grew on a fallen log. Very strangely shaped caps, barely any stem whatsoever. Some were quite clustered. Weird wavy shaped caps.











Both pickings I have only been able to spend a short amount of time out there, hoping to get some real good time out in the woods in the next few days to have a proper hunt!

Thanks as always for taking the time to read and check my post. I appreciate your wisdom!
