ID possible?
    #22324256 - 10/02/15 03:13 PM (8 years, 3 months ago)

i just found a whole field full of these... a few wees back i saw what looked like myc to me, so i spread it around all over the area hahaha- and now, these things are EVERYWHERE! what are they? for the most part, they are HUGE, 4"-7" across the cap. once its open and flat, they look exactly like oysters to me, but are growing out of basically this guys yard waste. ( i went hunting in his mulch patch haha). but when little, they look like this, and are PURPLE it looks like, on their own.. they look like purple "white button mushrooms", that spawn into oysters. from the ground. i swear..

best pic atm- im gonna go take more pics in a minute- i just wanted to see if any1 knew FOR SURE what it was already possibly?
cap about the size of a bottle cap, )in every dimension), and its about a bottle cap fat atm, and about 3 caps tall. but judging by its neighbors, it will blow up bigger than a barbie umbrella!

as i said- its growing into a shady woods area inlet, thats used as a yardwaste dump by a few houses.. so old grass and mulchy type stuff.

im in SE-MI (30min or so north of detroit) which i know is s bad hunting spot, but nonetheless, i think i know how to find em now, i just need to learn more about the do's and dont's other than "don't just eat it cuz its a LBM" or "If it's a liberty cap, then im Suzette Sommers"... lol

Could be a freakishly gigantic Blewit (Clitocybe nuda), we definitely need more pictures though. Please include the gills and stem and take a spore print if you can.

Also, I think the date on your camera is just a little off.

no idea how to do that- can you at least tell me if its possible theyre either rare (worth cash) or cubes (worth eating).... if they MAY be just some random edible with nothing "great" about it, then don't want em...
besides, being fully opened like that, do they even still HAVE spores to print? or if they will rot in the field before the print is done, that's also bad... altho I could grow the print I guess.. but still... can you at LEASE give me the likelihood it is something worth my time? I'm a "Candy-Kid", if it ain't candy, and not worth cash, then not worth my effort atm...

THO I would LOVE to figure out how to print so I can take my fruiting PC's and make more from them... whats a good, easy, kitchen-recipe style, spore collection/multiplication tek?

They are not psycoactive. If you don't consider them worth your time you should probably invest your time elsewhere.

The "great" comes from finding cool mushrooms and identifying them. It could possibly be a blewit which would be a nice find, but yeah most of us here aren't looking to make cash, we are here for the mushroom hunt and learning.

I agree.  The ones in the following post all look like Clitocybe nuda, especially given the way the cap color is changing to buff as it matures.

even the mature ones? the lil guy was SOO purple, and it looked exactly like blewit to me, but the mature ones are just so big and white, I almost think its not even the same species, but it was growing inside the cluster of the matures..

They fade when they age.

Yes, this species changes color dramatically as it matures.  It starts out very purple and by the time it is mature it is a drab buff color.  Odor can help confirm that they are the same, or spore print color can be checked.  The younger purple ones are probably best eating anyway, so you don't need to mess with the sketchy ones unless you feel like it.  Watch them mature over a few days to get an idea what kind of changes are normal in this species.
