Nice tamps and cool looking caerulescens 6 :mushroom2:

Backyard buddies coming along slowly...  Keeping them covered with straw and watered

Hey Nitro, did you cultivate those ones that are in your backyard? Or are you just extremely lucky. I've been looking around for a cultivation method that works, so that I can put my stem butts to proper use.

These are wild.  I have a few spots that I am experimenting with.  I started stem butts and cardboard last year.  No fruits from those areas (trying to expand the wild patch) just a lot of myc activity/veg.  Hopefully I will have fruits in those areas next year.  This year I started doing cardboard rolls from another member on here.  I feel like this tek. Will actually get the job done!  I’ll try to find the link for you.

Found this by chance today after the rain. I'm not holding my breath that much more will happen but I've been surprised before.

Nice. I'm hoping for a surprise soon too, but I doubt it. I just walked through my go-to area, and there is zero activity.

Good to see some new activity from a different spot :sporedrop:




These are the pins from the other day fully grown.  They are either sterile or they dropped all their spores.  Taking a print to see

I didn't take an in-shit-chu pic because only the tip top of the cap. I had to carefully pluck it out and was very surprised by the size actually. And right before the cap opened!

I have a question for everyone here. We know P. caerulescens likes woody debris after an area has been graded or a landslide has occurred but does not grow on mulch. Alan R. has found them around an old saw mill by the hundreds of pounds and northgahunt has found them in the bucket loads by areas effected by pine beetles.

Why do you think caerulescens likes landslides? What exactly triggers this fungi to fruit after this has occurred? I want to do some tests and need your thoughts/theory on why they fruit in these conditions and not in untilled soil.

It's a good question, no idea though. The pattern does seem to be solid. There was one year about 10 years ago where the google maps satellite view just happened to be some x number of years old, and at that time every single spot on the map that was under construction (so all dirt lots) were now finished, and every single one of them was flooded with weilii/caerulescens. It was wild lol it made hunting so easy that year but I haven't seen a single one at any of those spots again. It made me wonder if they just eat up the nutrients really quick, so they flush when things are disturbed and there is new food for them.

i wonder if they are maybe happily living underground until some machinery/landslide disturbance exposes them to the surface where they are still able to fruit while also mixing up spores that would have otherwise been stationary; and that certain nutrients can also coax them to come up for a lil while before they acquire what they were after and go back below the surface. because i have definitely found a couple of fruits that were happily fruiting underground where it maybe doesnt get as hard when rain hasnt fallen in a while. another observation ive observed is along a stretch of land that has a line of trees running parallel with the road so its like road-sidewalk-line of trees- stretch of grass-100 yard long 2 yard wide pile of woody debris-woods that have had the whole length of one side of stretch of grass tilled or dug up maybe they buried some kind of electric/sewer line idk but i havent found any fruits where it was tilled or in the woodchip strip but have found some in the untilled grass side thats in between the row of trees. this is all coming from someone who has basically zero understanding of fungii though  :cookiemonster:

What u mean "dropped all they spores"
They are clearly sterile. If they "dropped spores" you could be able to tell because there will be a spore deposit on the stipe.

They don't just "drop all their spores" then display clean white gills, with maturity the gills will become even more darker with spore build up and coat themself with more spores, quite the opposite.

Just had to call that out.

If I'm not mistaken, as with all mushrooms, exposure to oxygen is the catalyst that begins the formations of fruit. Any mushroom bag you get comes air tight, cut bag to allow oxygen and pins emerge. Landslides and disturbing earth expose the otherwise hidden mycelium which triggers fruiting.  Naturally occurs in some places where the mycelium finds the surface itself where food is abundant. Fungi are intelligent just like all other life forms.


ALSO-
In my experience, caerulescens often appear to have no spore activity as pictured above but tend to come out in prints.

My bad. I don't even live in Georgia LOL I only ever seen photos of caerulescens, never seen em IRL.

Good to know they can appear to look sterile but indeed house spores.

wow they still dropped some dark prints! i left one sitting for 2 days the other day and the print was barely visible. damn falcon those popped up like that, that quick?!? like how long between when u checked and they werent there to when they were? speaking of falcons despite living in ga for 20 something years i saw my 1st one yesterday. that thing was pretty frickin big i thought they were a little smaller than hawks but this thing stood about a foot tall. the way the lighting was i could of sworn its coat was kinda blue too. i was sure that had to be a sign id find something active before the sun went down and did but it was a fly agaric. i did find two lil buddies today despite it being a little dry. i wonder if they can sense rain coming. only grabbed one and left the other to go on about its business
