Hey everyone thought I might kick off this years actives thread after making my first find of the season. Found these little gyms in a pile of mulch this morning. Hope the subs aren't too far behind...
  
   Happy hunting everyone!

Thread has started woooo!
They're amazing looking mushrooms those Gyms Your post was the stoke this morning needed Nick...will be heading out later today to have a poke around at a new spot that features a creek running through a gully flanked by eucalypts, hopefully I can find something to contribute to the thread 
Here's to a ripper season for all 
Edit: Far too dry for subs still, but I think we found Gymnopilus junonius growing from a decaying trunk in the creek bed.

Another junonius find this evening...

Not great picture quality...wasn't on a forage and only had my bike torch to illuminate. Great little cluster though.

I thought although no psilocybin was present they contained compounds similar to Kava?
Found this site after some searching which explores the question...
https://morrie2.com/2012/06/01/gymnopilus-junonius-a-possibility/
On the weight of available evidence I'm going to agree that you're both correct here. Have never really looked in to the Gymnopolis sp. and can delete my posts, but may be helpful as a lesson on these laughterless Gyms

No need to delete the posts. They’re still quite photogenic, besides it’s nice to have some photos rolling along while we wait for Subs to make an appearance.

Damn, that was fast, I was hoping to start the Vic 2022 thread but Nick beat me to it.
Will be a bumper season for subs I reckon with La Niña's influence not abating just yet. Nice light constant drizzle today and more over the next day or two, woohoo!

Mushroom Hunting & Identification Forum Rules
 5. Do not make threads or posts discussing or reporting the weather. This includes complaining about the weather, asking if the current weather is "good for shrooms", or how long to wait after rain fall to go hunting. If it has rained within the last 1-10 days, and the temperatures are correct for the type of mushroom you're looking for, and the time of year is correct then it is certain that that the mushroom you are looking for is growing.

Went hunting yesterday, all the pre season inactives are about and it’s perfect conditions. Late start this year but hopefully the season will go longer into winter because of it 🤞

Went for a short scout in the inner south eastern suburbs after work today, managed to find a new patch of Psilocybe tasmaniana;
  
  
  
   No subs yet, though I only checked a small area.

I'm in the west and it's still pretty dry out here. Yes we had a good few days of rain/cold but that was after a long dry spell. I think the mushrooms need some time to wake up still. I haven't even seen many inactives, some yes, but not a lot. This time last year mushrooms (not just subs) were everywhere.

Ah maybe it’s different in the west, I’m in the eastern suburbs closeish to the city and I’ve been for a few walks in the more northeast suburbs and both are full of inactives. I’m sure you’ll see some soon and hopefully subs too.

Out for a morning stroll/hunt on the Peninsula, checking all last year's spots with no luck as yet.
Spotted 2 or 3 similar-looking inactive, but there's really not a whole lot going on!
I was super keen after the last week of rain and dropping temps too, haha.
Last year around this time I had massive hauls.

Similar sort of thing going on for me, generally seems pretty quiet for both actives and inactives right now. Usually I use when the inactives pop up in my front yard as a gauge for when to start hunting but no sign of them so far.
Went for a wander down to my local spot on Wednesday and saw nothing more than some mycelium in the woodchips. Gonna go for another stroll tonight, hoping to at least see some pins or something promising haha. More rain on the way so just gotta wait patiently I guess. Happy hunting everyone!

Thanks everyone.  Had a quick forage around the garden this morning in Gippsland. More gyms popping out of the mulch piles, maybe Gymnopilus dilepis.;
  
  
   Also found my first subs for the season. At a new spot in the garden. Psilocybe subaeruginosa.;

  
  
  
   Going to have a look around the forests after lunch. Hoping for some more nice finds.

Knowing full well I'd have little to no luck finding any subs in the suburbs with the warm weather and little rain we've been experiencing, I got itchy feet seeing Nickoloxious' photos and thought I'd try my luck today in the eastern suburbs.
As well as 2 regular spots I planned 3 new ones to scout for potential in the coming months.
Only in 1 of my regular spots I had luck finding these:





They may be pins but as you can imagine with recent conditions I was pretty happy to some life beginning!
In the rest of the locations I went to I only came across these guys (no idea what they are):

What an amazing start to the Victoria season! Incredible finds and photo's all round. As usual Nickoloxious you're killing it with the P.tasmaniana finds and seeing an active Gymnopilus season opener is a pleasant surprise.

Stumbled upon my first suburban subs for the season. Though wasn’t out hunting today. Just a nice find going on a short walk during a lunch break…
  
  
  Always enjoy an unexpected surprise find.

Hey OP/MODS,
Perhaps the location mentioned in this post is too specific? (M---- isn't all that big of a place?) Yesterday, I legit saw more people in "a spot" than I have for the combined last 5 seasons!
Everyones looking for that mega patch haha.
Apologies for the paranoia.

Hmmm perhaps I'll take M off of my list of places to visit afterall haha 
But yeah, I hear you. Providing a general direction / region without naming specific places is enough. It's half the fun spending hours on google maps pinning all the lush looking areas, then sussing out its suitability on street view lol

I thought it was a fair call Jags. Dividing the state in to cardinal and ordinal directions are specific enough. Cats already out of the bag with location posting on other sites - no need for it in this thread.

Just some more suburban finds from a short look at the Tassie spot. They’ve seemed to have dried out for the time being, though a nearby known patch of subs has started to fruit.

I'm not sure if I'm misreading your post but I was agreeing with you haha! I'd be disappointed if any of my favourite areas were name dropped on here - even if they're well known.
New stomping grounds for me this year, no luck as yet but hopefully find some lovely subs to share on here soon. Happy hunting

Look at that above ground myc on those two It's screaming out to devour more wood.
Never seen such lively myc like that attached to the stipe above ground. Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't myc become dormant from light?

Not too sure about that one. I'd assume it wouldn't be ideal. But if there's a lot more going on underground, then it should be irrelevant.  ~ Back at gippsland for the weekend & oh boy what a great start to the month. All of today's finds were from the garden... The active Gymnopilus on the piles of mulch are still pumping out fruits;
  
  
  ~ Some Gymnopilus junonius as well;
  ~ First Amanita muscaria fruiting around the birch trees, I've been waiting for these. 
  
  
  
 ~ A couple of subs;
  
   ~ Found this new patch of young subs. At the time my young doggo was galloping all around the place, Going through garden beds and everything. So I thought the least I could do to protect them was make a small enclosure for while they're still young and have spores to drop. 
  
  
   ~ Don't think I'll have the time to check the forest this week.

Typical. Someone has a laugh in good humor and you instantly go full racist with once of the most controversial topics of recent times. By the way, the cop was found guilty so you are promoting racism, a hate crime and racial division on a mycology forum. Ignorance at it's finest. Another outsider that gets reality from the idiot box. All because someone had a laugh in good humor. That speaks volume of your character and further expounds on your true intentions. Noted.
Please keep that same energy in person when the Karma train returns. What comes around goes around. Haven't you noticed what's been happening locally in Australia? You should be more concerned about what's coming to Australia, that is way worse than the last 2 years. Australia is the testing ground and your government sold every one of you out. IYKYK... Just wait this is only the beginning and people like you have it coming back ten fold. Now that is justice!

Anyone been making some suburban finds yet? I've been out in the eastern suburbs all over the shop I've been finding more inactives than you can shake a stick at but not a single sub for the life of me. My local patch is yet to fruit anything as well. I'm starting to think it hasn't been consistently cold and wet enough yet for them to show up, which looks like is set to change.
Anyone else having similar struggles?

Hey, first-time writer here!
Had to reply because I feel you on this, been checking around my regular parks in the SE to no avail.
So far it's been a really annoying start to the season, spotty rains, temperatures only dipping for a day or two...
Fortunately we had a good days rain last weekend and the next rains/drop in temp the rest of this week should be good 👍
Cheers for all the info and beautiful shots over the years people, been a long time admirer of this message board. Hope to be able to engage more this year 🙏

bit of a lurker here as well, been scouting out local spots but no go atm. seeing more signs of life with inactives popping up each day though is getting me excited and hopeful. i have a feeling this season is gonna be a good one! second one out on my own, last year was a divine accident stumbling across a local patch and got me right back into the thrill of hunting

What the hell are you on about? The pic is distasteful, but they didn’t post it to be racist, you completely misread. Keep your ranting out of this thread, it’s way worse than discussing the weather.

You might be onto something there, Nick. You got me thinking back to photos Warrk posted in their sub fish tank moss terrarium grow thread showing myc spreading out against the glass, they document having kept the tank out of direct sunlight, not completely in the dark. If that's anything to go by, perhaps sub myc can handle low level light if its root system is solid underneath, and the right temperature of course.
These things they call fungi, interesting stuff!

Same here, no luck locally. A few pins was the last I came across a bit over a week ago that I posted in this thread. They were eastern suburbs way I had to drive out to so I haven't been able to go back to check on them. Keep looking, psbs - you might find them!
Haven't even come across many L ceres either which are normally, and annoyingly, everywhere by now.
Came across this slimey bugger last Sunday. Possibly a gym (?) it was feasting on.
That said, I am seeing some success in a couple of outdoor grow experiments I started last season!
     
Another experiment from last season was making a number of sub smoothies and pouring them into various woodchip beds at local parks and reserves that I haven't seen subs grow before. Not expecting the smoothie tek to work but it never hurts trying. If successful, the plan is to keep spreading all around locally. Fingers crossed

You can mix fresh subs with tap water and blend it, use a spray bottle to spread over mulch.

As Sykadelic mentioned there's a tonne of great resources here you can look up.
I mainly followed Olive's methods as it seemed the most doable for me.
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/14553921/fpart/1/vc/1
You'll see Olive uses stem in cardboard tacos to grow myc before transferring to woodchips. I had very little success out of this mainly from being super impatient and not being able to leave them alone, over misting, to the point the stems turned to sludge with some parasitic worms eating them. They may have even grown out of them, I dunno but I turfed them out.
Best results came from stem butts in woodchips in takeaway containers.
For smoothie tek, I followed UK Explorer's method. Pretty much what Jenk suggested.

A couple suburban finds in the south east around dusk... A few more Psilocybe tasmaniana at the new spot I found last month, no fruits yet at the original patch I discovered last year;
 
  ~ And some more Sub patches waking up around the area;

Those tasmaniana are beautiful Nick, you must've been over the moon coming across those! I'll be doing a lot more hunting in Melbs East this year, hope to come across some myself. Same habitat as subs yeah?
Great pics as always and good job on leading the vicco charge

Thanks mate, I appreciate it!  They’re certainly interesting to find. Funny thing is the first time I remember actually coming across them was back in 2020, a year before I had confirmed what they were. At the time I thought they were just strange looking and tasting sub mutants. I was actually a little averted towards them because of the differences even though they were little LBM's that bruised blue. Just goes to show it pays to look into strange findings.

Seems to be the case. I’ve found the two species growing meters apart from each other last year. ~ Some more suburban subs from a different spot today;

First finds of the season this morning Had a lovely discussion with a woman who saw me taking photos and asked what was going on. After a great chat about Rupert Sheldrake and fungal intelligence she set off with a small handful excited for her first experience! I'm happy to know that my first finds of the year went to a curious dog-walker who had the courage to reach out and connect 
  
And some active (I think!) Gyms growing nearby

What the hell are you on about? The pic is distasteful, but they didn’t post it to be racist, you completely misread. Keep your ranting out of this thread, it’s way worse than discussing the weather.

Nice one! 
Looks like them to me. Did you give the gyms a taste test, the spore colour looks the part. The only look alike I know of is Tricholomopsis rutilans which has an almost white spore print & does not taste bitter.

Last year was my first season hunting; after pretty much stumbling over a small suburban patch 400m from home, that unfortunately quickly got trashed by someone else, along with another in the same general area. But late in the season I also found a better patch a short drive away, which managed to remain otherwise untouched.
After the recent rains and cold overnight temps I thought I'd take a look at "the good patch" a few days ago, but all I found then were a bunch of dried out mushrooms that clearly weren't what I was looking for - they seemed to be two types, either strikingly orange caps, or paler brown/beige caps with stems that were yellowish instead of bluing.
Since there was a bit more rain last night I went back this morning, and after initially only spotting more "non-useful" types (I'll still get any I pick positively ID-d on here: while I think I have Subs pretty much dialled in now, I'm also a little paranoid still...!) I was thinking maybe the patch had been infiltrated/overgrown with these others and started to head back to the car.
That was when the one with the split cap in photo #1 caught my eye. I crouched to take a photo, then realised that while there hundreds of larger obvious non-actives all around me, only just emerging from the leaf litter were also seven or eight clusters of pins like pic #2. A good reminder that I really need to take the time while down low to "get my eyes on", as I'd completely missed all of them up til then.
I stepped carefully away from the patch to head off, and as I was keeping my eyes to the ground to hopefully not damage anything about 5m away I spotted the single Sub in pic #3, nestled between several of those orange ones.
Left them all to get bigger, so will check back again and hope no-one else discovers them in the meantime, but things look promising this year - fingers crossed, anyway!

The orangey capped ones are likely L Ceres. I always find subs near those guys.
Subs are great at camouflage with their caramelly brown coloured tops in dried leafy litter like in your photos. It certainly pays to slow down, stop and get to ground level for them to suddenly appear. Good eagle eyeing!
That's some intense blueing in that split capped sub. Practically no brown visible.
And the second photo looks like it's gonna be a sweet cluster when they mature would love to see a photo of them after your next visit.
Hope your patience pays off and they remain waiting for you to be picked

Finally got a chance to go check my patches this afternoon and all were full of subs! None of the dryer wordy patches yet that are in parks so I’ll be interested to see when those pop up but seasons well and truly started now. Happy hunting everyone!

How absolutely lovely of you to give both information and mushrooms! As a new hunter, May I be so lucky to meet someone like you when I’m out and about scoping. Xx

Well after countless unfruitful efforts, finally made my first suburban finds of the season this morning at a local park!
First ones I stumbled upon were these, not many mature mushrooms but certainly plenty of pins which I might see to in a few days


Then after a bit more of a scour I stumbled upon these two great big clusters sitting next to one another



Also spotted a Stinkhorn and a patch of some Hypholoma while I was there which made for some cool photos


Very happy to have my efforts finally pay off

Been quiet a few years but I always love seeing you guys here Lovely Tasmaniana there wowee
Here's some early season sub finds
  
And some Alutacea(?) I'm not sure tho, they biiiiiig compared to any I usually find. They also lack that obvious sticky pelicle. Might hunt some more and do a formal ID request, sorry I know those aren't allowed here. Just thought I'd tack em on this post

Nice Finds everyone!  Those sure do look like Psilocybe alutacea Gallusgallus229.  ~ Back at Gippsland for the weekend. Here's some finds from around the garden... Active Gymnopilus on the mulch piles. They're starting to show up in a couple of garden beds too now;
  
  
 ~ More amanitas;
  
  
  There was one of these tall shaggy white amanitas growing amongst them again;
 ~ Psilocybe subaeruginosa;
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  ~ And managed to squeeze a forest hike into today aswell these photos are from that.... Forest subs;
  
  
  
  
  
  
   The shroom to the right of the last photo is an imposter.  Thought this was pretty cool too a lone sub growing next to a pair of Cruentomycena viscidocruenta;
 ~ I went deeper into the forest this time, to try and look for a particular spot. but lost my orientation in the tangled mess of ferns and fallen trees. I spent quite some time bush whacking to find my way back to the road. Where I managed to make some cool finds along the way. This active gym in particular was a pleasant suprise;
  Thought it might've been Tricholomopsis rutilans, but after a quick taste test. It was bitter. So this would be my first time finding an active gym in the forest.  ~ and some other photos from today;

Been lurking a bit and waiting to post til I had my first discoveries which I had on Sunday. NW forest area. Not the biggest haul but better than my first one last year. Kinda strange growing conditions with lots of single fruits mostly growing at the base of different trees... not particularly close to each other but all within a hundred metres or so of each other.
Very first of the season, with a funny crinkly edge


Thought the myc on this one was impressive but the phone photo turned out a bit bog
 

Thought this was a sub pin at the time, but now thinking it was probably a Cortinarius sp.

Upturns are rare for me!

  
Picked this pin without looking at the pic first to notice that it hadn't unfurled yet - the stipe was super thick. Could've been a big boi

Dried out with some funky rain damage?

Left this one:


Is this an active gym?

Some other non-actives:

Another decent easy method is to get a take away container or similar, layer the bottom with cardboard then add a layer of sub myc then layer of cardboard you can repeat this process a few times just once is sufficient, incubate at room temp is fine, wait til colonized then spawn to woodchips outdoor and tarp it. Let it colonize and birth it.

Ah cool, I've wondered occasionally what the orangey ones are, as they're the ones that also lead me to repeated disappointment to start with for my first season. But then I also realised that they were often a good indicator of patches that were at least worth a closer look.
Thanks for the compliment on spotting! I'm finding it like those "hidden eye" pictures that used to be popular - I'll be staring at a patch of mixed mulch and leaf litter and seeing absolutely nothing, but then notice one or two and suddenly they're literally everywhere I glance , including right next to my feet... 
I popped back two days later to check and take some more photos but it's been so dry since they first flushed, it was like nothing had changed in terms of size... A bit concerned that they'll just dry out, and to be honest wasn't sure whether the right thing to do was grab some pins anyway or just leave them, in terms of preserving the patch. So I guess I'm waiting til we get the decent rain that's supposed to be coming from tomorrow, and then check again. Fingers crossed and all that.
So sorry no photos this time, but I'll post more when there's better to see - hopefully in the next day or two!

Nice finds! Seasons definitely underway now - I'm finding good growth around the place. Any idea what that is growing between the Subs and Galerina's?

Decided to have a pick today in the Otways and stumbled across these little guys... not to sure if they are subs or not but can someone please point me in the right direction.
Happy hunting!!

I have a feeling I am going to see these everywhere now that they have been identified by the helpful people on here. These images were taken in a garden bed in the east of Melbourne.

Those are leratiomyces ceres. Try not to remove the whole mushroom when you are picking, use scissors or hold the base of the mushroom and twist and pull.

A little hunt in the garden today. Active Gyms still flourishing;
  
  
  
   ~ More Amanitas too, looked like a Christmas party around the Birches;
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
   ~ Honestly can't believe how many subs have popped up over the week. Maybe all those stem butts and rotting caps spread across the garden beds over previous years have finally paid off. 
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
   ~ Best patch!
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

 ~ Some other photos;

  Will have a quick look in the forest tommorow.

Hi, I’m new here. Hoping to learn more. But wondering if there are foraging groups or similar things that someone new like me can join to go hiking and looking with others ☺️

Some absolutely crazy bluing on some of these Nick! Wish I had land for a true patch of my own haha
EDIT: after sitting here puzzling about the why the ones underneath were the ones that were 'bruised', I've realised these are spores, not bluing  Still crazy intense colour!

Its always nice seeing patches sporulate with vigor 
@ Betaboo, Welcome. Don't think you'll find anything like that here. But you should check out Bob's Hunters guide in his sig link. It should give you more than enough info to start making some solo find of your own in no time.
 ~ Some subs & other things from the forest today;
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
 ~ Inactives;
  
  
  ~ Plus a couple more finds from the garden;
  
   ~ Thought I might as well collect some of the leaves that gathered heavy spore deposits & spread them in mulch beds where they'd be better off;
 ~ Couldn't help but pick some of the better ones to dry later. The bruising on some of these was incredible;
