Promising hunting spot?
    #26987349 - 10/15/20 04:02 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

I'm pretty sure none of these mushrooms are desirable but does the location seem promising when the temps drop? These were all found today on the So Or coast on rotting driftwood next to the mouth of a river. I can provide more photos of any if needed?

Problem with driftwood is it tends to be bone dry, have seen people find gyms on it tho

From what I hear, the magic ones like the ocean breeze, slightly lower temperatures, a lot of rain, and what we are looking for, is softwood that has been mulched in amongst soil.

So perhaps a park near the coast. I have yet to find time to hunt myself. A few days ago it rained like hell but I've been working. So...not mich time...and sadly, it doesn't rain the morning of my first day off so its kind of disappointing. I would imagine first buds are already harvested, but like I said, your absolute best bet is in some softwood mulch bed + topsoil, essentially. It's a more recent type of landscaping. This is if you're looking for wavy caps, which judging by the picture, yes. I've seen all the lookalikes. You're on the right track. Sometimes they do grow along the coast, but again, you will want to look for mulched beds amongst rhododendrons, blackberry bushes, alder and maple wood chips, etc. So if you see light colored chips mixed in with topsoil that is where they'll usually grow.

Happy hunting :mushroom2:

I am sure they're already out. Hopefully not everyone has gotten to them yet. Remember to harvest with a knife or scissors so they can keep sprouting :smile:

Yeah, the driftwood I found mushrooms growing on had been there for years and was rotting away nicely.

Last year I found (#1) L. amethysteo-occidentalis and (#2) non-active P. castanella? Non-bruising, growing in grass. Spore print is white, growing in a nearby area. Thank you for the ID's.

I have a ton of places with wood chips, rhody's, azalea, blackberry (unfortunately), alder, etc. I guess I was hoping to find them growing in the "wild". I should probably check the easy places and ID some before trying the forest. Thank you for the info!
