For some reason the vegetation in my patches has gotten out of control this season, last year it was maybe up to my knees, this time it's gone to my shoulders

Yep that's some fat jewelweed. Would rather see that then the knotweed tbh. At least it's native and doesn't crowd everything out.

I'm probably gunna crack those shrooms up and brush em off and see what I get.

Koods you complain when you find pounds and counsel me to get rid of my few finds. (I am the Native in this scenario)

Literally the same where I'm at. I don't hunt actives atm, but whatever else I do try to find, I have trouble getting through.

The weirdest thing was that vegetation was very late this season, and there was so little rain, nevertheless - it grew way over my shoulders till the mid May. Unlike last season, when it was under some self control.
I spent hours thinking for an explanation.

I was away from my spots for two weeks and in that time the knotweed doubled in height to 9 feet and grasses my height in spots.

As far as chip mushrooms go, my honest to god method for finding new ovoid patches is just to look for the big wine caps that come up. If a mulch pile has a lot of wine caps, in my experience, they often will also have ovoids. It's worked for me for virtually all my woodchip patches and NONE of the patches I hunt don't also have wine caps

Lots of mushrooms will grow in chips, most common imposters being argocybe, some other ones that can look similar include tubaria and Galerina tho the latter is usually found on logs

Hey guys new hunter here, I’ve been following these threads for a while now after just missing last years spring season. I’ve been looking a lot this season and I’ve found many mushrooms looking similar to ovoids but I’ve had 0 confirmed finds. I was wondering if anybody could take a look at my habitat and suggest specifically where I should look. In my opinion the habitat I’m looking at is perfect and I’m thinking the main problems are the bad conditions and my inexperience. I’m in MD and we haven’t gotten much rain until recently, it’s been a lot of fun learning and searching and I can’t wait to find my first ovoids. This is my habitat, it is a flood plain in a great location with box elders and Japanese knotweed

Hello, this is my first season really looking and I have some questions.  I have been having trouble locating suitable floodplain areas near me. I've been switching my search to mulch beds near rivers/streams with the indicator species. Will I have the most success trying to locate these out in a floodplain or in a mulch patch?

I'm new and can't offer much advice, but I was in your shoes a month ago. Hunting out perfect looking habitats in MD with no luck.  These things kinda just ended up where I least expected them. I was getting frustrated then I randomly went jogging one day at a nearby riverside park after that one week of rain we got, looked to the right and thought "Wouldn't it be funny if they were just growing right there next to the path". I crouched and got a closer look and saw fucking pins growing right next to the paved jogging path. I came back to the spot later, walked into the grass just past the pins, and there were already matured ovoids everywhere. It was quite a ways from the river/creek as well, and the bank around the river is not flat so it could not flood up to there.

For me, I never found any in wood debris piles. They were always fruiting from tiny sticks or bark buried under the grass and dirt. Always next to box elder trees. I can't believe I went hunting out in snake infested flood plains when these were growing 3 minutes away from my apartment. Just don't give up and keep your eyes peeled next season.

Habitat looks good, check around old decaying logs by the stream. Be careful hunting down there last time I was down there must have had 100 ticks on my pants never seen that many at once before.

If you don't find them around that stream then try some other similar Habitats, as long as there is box elder and flowing water they should be around

Haha I love stories like this. It would be wild if I found them near my home at the parks I grew up around. Posts like these keep me inspired... I have some ideas :crazy2:

Yeah, sometimes it feels like nature is playing tricks on you. Do you typically look just off the edge of the creek or a bit further off to the side?

The tiny cluster in the dirt from the second picture I posted is the only one found on the edge of the creek. The patch with the most ovoids (last 3 pictures above), that also had the most beautiful mature specimens, was the furthest location from the creek, but it was on some pretty flat ground that I imagine floods from the rain pretty well. I still wonder how they got there. You'd think they would be all over the forest given how many boxelders there are and how spread out the different spots are, but they just seem to be small clusters in random unexpected places for me. I just don't get how they end up in specific random places without filling up the areas in between each of the spots.

I went out again this afternoon and tried to listen to your advice, I found some mushrooms that looked like ovoids but I didn't see any bruising. I've found many ovoid lookalikes which an app has identified as ovoids on multiple occasions (I know they aren't completely accurate but it's still something), but I have still never found any that bruise blue. I'm wondering if immature specimen bruise blue, and if it will be an instant bruising, one that will make it obvious that they are ovoids. I'm also wondering if the age of the wood/woodpile matters, and if the wood should be moist or rotting, or dried etc. I also think I have to search more carefully and really get in there as it seems that is the best way to find them. We'll hopefully be getting some rain tomorrow so I have high hopes! thank you all for your responses.
