The few rain dumps we got in SF the last few days have brought out some fresh and meaty cy’s
 Hope everyone can find time to get out there I think there are scores to be had in coastal Bay Area

I wandered through Golden Gate Park today for about two hours searching and found nothing active. I think I'm really bad at this.
Ironically, I'm just trying to find enough to get spore prints from to grow on my own.

Nice fruit shroomhunter222 those look prime!
OsoGoloso- Not sure where you are looking in GGP but don't just stick to woodchip beds, anywhere with lots of wood and leaves debris has potential if you see other wood loving mushrooms growing, thats a good indicator that conditions are right i.e. Leratiomyces ceres and tubaria.
Question for all (sorry if this get too off topic for the active thread I can make a separate post but figured you all know, PM me too if you'd rather) I'm going to try and blast up to CA/OR boarder I really want to hunt for some P.semilanceata's. When looking in livestock fields do you all jsut try and find a remote field and go for it or try and find the owner and ask permission. (I know there are some old threads on this but just wondering from all the peeps on the ground right now) I'm aware of some rare public lands up there that you can find a rare one in but there is so much private land with potential, I don't want a rancher after me with his shot gun JK but for real. Figured I might keep some whiskey on me for a farmer peace offering if I just decide to go for it.

Dang...
Those are probably the best looking & most prime mushrooms I've seen so far this season. Real thicc! They were not picked "too early" but it looks like they had potential to swell up even more, they have that look about them like they would have all developed into some giant fruits lol. They just have that "thick" & healthy look about em' lol.
They look delicious!....I'd have a hard time keeping myself from eating "too many" of those fresh fruits lol. Something about good looking fresh mushrooms like that makes me want to stuff my mouth full of them , and I actually looove the texture of chewing up and eating fresh mushrooms lol (tho I know just one or two of those fresh fruits would have me pretty far gone lol)

Went hunting at a place I had filed away in my brain earlier (prior to the rains) and I swear you could have filled a wheelbarrow with all of the Tubaria sp. that I saw...
Then I stumbled upon a small patch of Cyans! I haven't seen them in the wild before.




Location : Palo Alto. And it's still sending up pins, so I'll be back.
Also saw a couple of A. Muscaria on the way home. Twas a good mushroom day.

Nice pics. Tubaria are my bane. I must have checked a thousand patches over the last week to make sure that's what they really were. No white stems, alas. There must be billions just growing in the Presidio at the moment.

Found about one full dehydrater tray worth of cyanescens today in SF from a known spot. They were all growing out of the grass. Really small fruits, but there were loads of them. This area produces every year, always small fruits, always in the grass. I get about an ounce or so dry from it yearly. Wish they were bigger, but I’ll take what I can get.

nice homie! yeah i'm gonna head out in the next few days and see how much the patch is producing.. once it goes dormant I wanna harvest a safe amount of the mycelium and colonize some other places nearby that are just PERFECT environments, they just need a little help!

checked out an area that has never produced in the 10 years i have been looking in SF (for some reason I keep looking despite not finding anything). I decided to look across the street at the office park and bam! biggest fruits I have ever found in 10 years of hunting. Massive!

muscaria (and Tubaria) from yesterday in Berkeley

Gotta love a couple grams of muscaria as a night cap. Forgot how good they are.

Central Valley surprise this morning, I found nothing in a half a mile radius, but right in front of the door of a popular chain restaurant:
