If there are wavys within very close proximity to poisonous mushies, they still good to go for?
Found em growing near a piece of wood, with the poisonous ones growing strait off the wood..

Yeah proximity to others has no effect on edibility. Those look like some big cyans though, nice!

More early PDX fruits. Hasn't even rained yet. Thank Santa for sprinklers. Prolly left 1000 pins. Going back in a week, praying to the Claus that they are still there when I do. This one patch will set me and all my peeps up for a year if they are. If not, I am seeing tons of cyan myc ready to pop in all my usual spots.
I know they are sideways and my cam sucks. You get the idea tho, I'm sure.

Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself down over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him.
Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!

What kind of area are you finding these in? A maintained park or more out in the wild? I'm in NW WA as well, and I'm having a hell of a time trying to find cyans or allenii in woodchipped areas in town and at parks

Found alot on the coast that looked extremely similar to those lighter colored ones but left them alone cause they didnt bruise blue when I pinched one, have you found that sometimes the cap or stem doesnt bruise? Seeing those pics makes me regret not spore printing one

For sure until you get them home and start to dehydrate them. The wind is doing this. The cold does the same.
@ctt04 i don’t make it a point to hunt parks, definitely not in the wild. Need to learn there habitat in the urban enviorment. Parks arn’t the only place to find wood chips. Keep at it, you will get it.
Few more cyans and Amanita.

Just gotta keep looking around woodchip beds, they typically dont grow in big patches out in the wild. If its any consolation it may be worth rechecking parks you have already checked weeks later as alot of my old known spots have only just started pinning but the mycelium is raging on the ground

Always check twice. Take a walk, turn around and come back from the other direction. Look for microclimates like ferns and grasses. They are there, if I am finding patches of 100-1000 in Portland where it's only rained 2 out of 20 days or so, you got em up there. Look in well irrigated parks. I found several hundred yesterday growing around a sprinkler head.
Also know that there are more mushroom hunters than literally ever before, at least since they invented grocery stores, so the competition is feirce. Keep looking, once you find em you will find em more easily.
Failure is a great way to learn what not to do but with mycovenatorial pursuits, success is a better teacher.
Just to leave a pic in the post, more sprinkler cyans from yestarday.

It takes 20-30 minutes for a bruising reaction to occur. However a cyan will almost always have some bluing around the edge of the cap from growth, and maybe some on the stipe if it has rubbed against something like a twig as it grows up.

I feel stupid now haha I honestly assumed it was like with homegrown cubes and they start showing bruising within a minute or 2, they looked almost exactly like light colored Cyans but I didnt see any bruising on the caps and I didnt want to go around pinching every one I found. Gonna make a trip down there next weekend cause if they are Cyans then the coast is finally popping off!
