I just composed this and thought I'd share it with you.

Nature diverts me to voicemail

Every day I walk the fields, sometimes afternoon and sometimes morning,
With my walking boots on, and a happy heart, I like to go exploring,
I've lurked on forums and done my research, in the hope I find something,
But every day my pockets are empty, I always seem to find NOTHING!

I believe when nature wants to talk to us, she shows us her rare fruit,
In my case she ignores me, nothing, no conversation, just mute.




poetry that is better than most rappers in 2016 lol

Fingers crossed for a purple spore print.

Edit: sorry for Urls...for whatever reason the upload photo app on this forum wasn't letting me copy the code and typing manually didn't work.

Edit again:
Spore print a good purply colour, spores the right shape when looked at through the 'scope too.

Yaaay! Finally broken my duck.

I only found the one of course...

But I found it by looking likely places near my local areas with my ongoing soil investigation :smile:
It was all alone in a damp patch near a hedge running east-west.

Shall go back after a rain.

Are they wet ones? Are they sticky? Have they dried a little now and gone lighter?

had a little looky about today, grass was dewy but ground it soooo dry! Took me ages to find these few, mostly lurking around edges of shrubby bits. I think these are all legit but could someone have a scrutiny :wink:

Side note: I see you have pulled them up from the ground. This destroys the mycelium which the mushrooms need to re-grow in the future.

Tip - pinch them with your finger nails low down on the stem to cut them, do not pull straight up.
      - remember to flick them before you pick them, this spreads the spores for a more bountiful crop next year!

I had said that also ^ but everyone knows best around here and claims it makes no odds - when it actually does, it severs connection therefore it will spend more time repairing the connection than it will using resources to make more fruiting bodies!  ! ... especially blazey, pretentious fool trying to be kind to everyone, calls me egoistical but cries when his thread doesn't include him..

I had also tried saying that's its a good kind idea to leave the first fruits of the season for around a week or 2 , let them spread spores at least before excitedly going in guns 'blazing', ripping them up with out a care in the world then starting the thread waaayyy to early like some excited school girl druggy quick to prove a point,then cries like a fucking bitch coz his spots were empty,, look at me look at me I have libs in July ... pathetic really , I suggest you re ignore me blazey you don't actually fool me matey , your transparent

in short , people like to think they know everything here and will be willing to dismiss the facts..

beautiful mushroom by the way ,lil spider may well be right

Picking mushrooms (even when the entire stem is taken) has not been shown to cause any harm to the organism. There is even some suspicion among some mycologists that leaving a bit of stem behind can cause harm to the fungus, by providing an injured, open area that is susceptible to infection and disease. Incidentally, the reasearch done so far gives this theory no more support than the theory that taking the entire stem causes harm.

Mushrooms are fruiting bodies, just as are apples. If you pick every apple from a tree (and get the stems also), you don't harm the tree. If you picked every apple from every tree and did it for many years, the population of apple trees would diminish and die out eventually.

The "body" of the fungus is the mycelium. It looks a lot like bread mold. They can be very large. As long as you don't destroy whatever the mycelium is growing in the fungus whould be fine. Remember, all of the mushrooms will rot and disappear within a fairly short time, whether you pick them or not.
