Some Kinda Ganoderma(?)
    #28593587 - 12/22/23 02:53 AM (1 month, 6 days ago)



Cat for scale. First three pics are fresh, last three are a big dried one I picked last week. All found next to each other.
Location: Northern California
Habitat: Growing up from the grass, near an old tree stump (not sure what kind) but not growing on any noticeable wood.
Gills: No gills, solid white bottom.
Stem: Thick and root like.
Spore Print: None. Unsure how to get spores off something like this.
Scent: Didn't seem to have one.
No bruising.
Never seen a mushroom like this. Super cool! Am I correct in thinking it's a ganoderma?

99.9% of the time I have no idea whats going on.

Key to Ganoderma identification is to know what kind of wood it grows on.
At least check the living trees growing nearby, whether broadleaved coniferous trees are dominant.
Doesn't seem like the pore surface is bruising either.

It sure is.

I'm no expert but I hunt ganoderma every season and I pick them by the pounds.

Please don't take my word for it though,  because like I stated,  I'm no expert.

I've spent some time studying tree bark. Closest stump is a Blue Oak, next closest stumps are I think Ponderosa Pines.
Living trees are majority Blue Oaks and Grey Pines, but these are further away.

Cool! What do you do with them, may I ask? I'm keeping my dried one for shelf decor.

I find several different kinds of Ganoderma here, and I make tea with them all.
