Anyone else see anything yet? I checked Portland's weather for the last few weeks and it looks like y'all had a run of days there hitting low 60's, still cold at night though. Wonder if that's part of it. I'm also curious if things are blooming already down there as I've gathered that's usually the best time to start looking. Here in the Seattle area the highs have stayed low to mid 50s for the most part and the trees are only just starting to show signs of life. Seems like it will be a later season than some years past.

Would love any tips from experienced void hunters out here- been reading through past threads but obviously there's a lot more East Coast stuff and I'm curious how much of it applies. The sense I've gotten is that they are more common in typical cyan habitat than the naturalized habitats in the Midwest and East Coast/South. Also common near Japanese knotweed which continues to plague the PNW as far as I know. Has anyone consistently found them in more natural habitats in the PNW?

Urban/suburban chip beds, nowish is normal, only way to find them is to get out and look.

For sure, and thanks. This fall was my first season and I'm definitely anxious to get back out there- it's currently my favorite reason to spend a lot of time outside.

I mainly ask because I have been putting together a list of riparian/floodplain-esque areas close to me, some of which I know to have woodlover activity, but which didn't turn up much of anything during cyan season. It'd be fun to have another type of habitat to search, but if that's still not really the case for the PNW that's good to know. Although I am definitely doing what I can to propagate with the small amount of material I've got from a random ovoid find late last season (identified here).

Part of the reason I'm curious is that I've also been looking west of Seattle, in the broader Kitsap region, and am curious if they've made it that far west yet. If the current populations are still mainly the ones introduced in Portland, Seattle etc. then I'll switch it up and just focus on propagating this side of the Sound.

It hit freezing last night and looks to keep being cold for a while, so I'm guessing we are still a couple of weeks away from the season starting up. Just asking here because I would love to be proven wrong :smile:

I'm a believer in walk before you run.  Take the time to find them where they have been proven to come up for years, then expand your search.  If you have a developed eye they will be much easier to spot in the wild riparians, which they have not out west as far as I know.

Personally if I lived in the city I'd be checking new spots every day now and not waiting.  even if nothing shows up yet the daily walks are good for you and you'll be able to spot likely habitat to check later on.  Get out there.

Been pretty dry out this year so far so only the really nice wet micro climates are producing but they're popping. I've got patches going now from the kitsap peninsula to North gate. Here's hoping for some rain there's 1000s of pins just waiting...

Nice to see some success!

It's been dry as a bone since the site went down.  I grabbed a bunch of myc chips that got torn up by people ripping up pins and dispersed them in various towns.  Just going to tap out for the rest of the season and give them a chance to recover and spore.

Hope everyone is finding what they need to get them through the summer.

Good luck y'all

Don't give up yet season is just starting its just a late one. May will be wet and we will see more. Good job spreading though. I'm testing methods for ovoid and so far my best results are large chip maple beds and using both a full gallon zip lock of spawn and a bottle of spore slurry sprayed over and around the planting. That's resulted in an 8ft circle of myc in almost 1 year june 2020 to April 2021

Thanks for spreading patches too!  I wish more people would help out with making patches.  It's fun, easy, and drastically ups the odds of finding more the next year.  Why hit the over-picked big spot when you can just make a new one!

I don't remember exactly who it was years ago that filled water balloons with cyan LC and hucked them over the fence into the huge chip piles at the seattle parks maint yard, but true heroes live among us.

I find they like it really mushy and wet.  They seem to thrive where the soil under the chips is so wet your feet sink a few inches into it.  I've done okay with myc transfer, but spores seem to be where it's at for these little ones.

It's fun to watch a tiny patch pop up, then next year it's much larger and in the wind dispersal pattern from last year's spore drops.

Hello! I'm new to this entire thing. Never hunted or even tried, but my dad was an avid hunter and user in his youth. Interested in learning to identify and to try this spring season! In Seattle. Replying to follow this thread, and open to any advice anyone may have!

If you live in Seattle I'd suggest going for walks in parks and looking in woodchip beds in landscaping (not barkchip or beauty bark, wood chips).

Use the search bar on site here to look up earlier spring PNW actives seasons threads and see where people are finding mushrooms.
