PNW question on woodchips and myc...
    #22470549 - 11/03/15 11:17 AM (8 years, 2 months ago)

I know this is just a picture of myc.. but I'm trying to understand habitat here.. it's an area in which new chips were laid on old ones. The myc patch is in a hexagonal area and all along the outer perimeter. It is huge. It was under packed leaf litter and I stumbled on it while bored dragging my walking stick.

Another question on woodchips. I see people here saying to look for bright alder and others say avoid it and to look for older chips slightly under the soil. I've found inactives flourishing on both. I've spent hours upon hours every day for weeks now reading, I'd just like a little more knowledge.

So... if you saw yards upon yards of myc in an area like this, what would you do? Dig? Move on? Revisit in 3 days? Willamette valley park.



I've found spots of myc before and god only knows from what species of course, but I'm specifically asking for woodchip myc, or if this is how cyans would grow? In the secondary chip layer? Do parks or playgrounds put more chips down if mushrooms are found in an area? Are new chips sprayed?

Edit: on the far right you can see a brighter chip which the area is covered jn. The majority of the myc is what used to be there and is pushed to the edges where the new chips didn't cover it deep enough.

That does not look like Psilocybe mycelium to me. Please don't dig up mushroom beds, no matter what they are. If I were you I'd come back to it in a week or so to check on it.

The biggest frustration I've had is diggers, I think I've had a misconception they meant two different things.. like digging up more of the area, not digging up someone's patch, eek. :eek:

But as far as the rest of it, I'd love to know what the woodchip thing is about. Brighter alder vs older woodchips, or newer chips where there weren't any before, newer chips upon older ones, etc.

The only threads I've found through Google are either 10 years old from this website or are not helpful at all. I've seen a few though that do say a lot of the newer chips are sprayed.

I think it to be my biggest obstacle right now after being new to PNW. It's like, should I spend 20 minutes going somewhere to hunt for awhile if it's just pest/fungicide chips not worth my time.

Looks in city parks near rivers- when wind storms break branches and sometimes whole trees the park service normally mulches them and put them around the bases of trees, I've had fairly good luck looking in this habitat.
