12/14/15. East Bay. New finds.


1) 

 



P. cyanescens and P. allenii. The plan was to make only a couple needed stops in Berkeley before heading off to the North Bay. Needless to say my plan got interrupted. This place looked so promising as I passed it...I simply had to put the car in reverse and stop to take a look around. Thank goodness I did.


2) 




P. allenii. With my plan to hit the North Bay cancelled, I decided on a more relaxing afternoon...eating lunch at home, cleaning the morning's finds, and then for the last two hours of sunlight hunting wherever the moment took me. Well it obviously took me somewhere good. The place was vast, and after an hour or so of turning up nothing, I graduated from finding a few dried out specimens...to discovering a couple substantial clusters...and finally, while searching practically in darkness, to uncovering a shit load of fatties.

We try to keep this thread more or less on topic, there are other threads for chit-chat.

I think the north bay is better right now.  Oakland has been dry for almost a week, however I saw some good rains around Santa Rosa a couple days ago that did not hit Oakland.  I think Sausalito, Corte Madera and all of those towns between there and Petaluma and Santa Rosa would be good right now.

I saw a couple P. allenii in Oakland yesterday, they were getting dried out.

P. allenii. Revisited the site of last night's find and found a little bit more today. The last pic shows the awesome biscotti my gf made last night...she made apple pie filling and added it to the mix...100% organic, baby!

Gravypro - Thanks and Pinole.

Crap, I only pulled out the below-ground stuff because I thought the clumping and lower parts of the bodies were important for accurate identification. I didn't realize it took years for that stuff to grow back! I still have the stuff and was hoping I could actually cultivate it and spread it to other areas.

It was my first time and despite the last few weeks of looking around I must have missed the info about how to harvest. If anyone can point me toward a thread about returning the mycelium I'll try to make it right.

A decent low-tech way to make use of the mycelium is to simply re-bury it in a suitable irrigated habitat.  If you really want to help it take off, line the hole you dig with some of that finely shredded aspen pet bedding you can buy at any pet store.

Technically you are right, it is important to collect the entire mushroom, especially when it comes to stuff like Amanitas. But now you know to be more delicate with these little wood lovers. :thumbup:

Don't know about y'all but finding a LOT of non-active kicks (and unnecessarily extensive) around San Francisco's known habitats. Such bullshit. :mad:

ronzlo, I agree completely. I got interested in mushrooms (of all kinds) after a hike near Pacifica last December just after we got the big rains -- we saw *beautiful* coral mushrooms, Russula, hedgehogs, lots of different things I was unfamiliar with and it was so great! Then it stopped raining. For a year. :mad2:

I've managed to find actives in two spots in SF this month after many hours of searching, and one of those was just one tiny cyan. The other was some allenii in GGP - I got 30-40 grams fresh from that spot two weekends ago and again this past weekend. On the one hand I'm very grateful to have found any actives, on the other hand I'm also really tired of seeing indicator shrooms all over the place.

Hopefully the upcoming rains will do the trick - Alan mentioned Santa Rosa upthread and I looked it up - Santa Rosa has gotten at least twice the rainfall SF has in the past month!

I think I have found look alike cyans in Livermore. Closest I've come to anything with a brown cap! I'm running spore prints right now. What do you guys think?
