Beautiful Salem Cyanescens - Lots of pics! (small update!)

Well, after my hunt with Joshua yesterday I was determined to find some in my hometown. So I went out for a walk downtown. Luck was on my side, because no matter how hard these buggers were trying to hide from me, I just kept finding them. It is really pays off to get down and dirty! They sure do like to hide under piles of leaves. I found some very large fruitings, and left hundreds and hundres of pins/immatures to grow. Enjoy these pics as much as I enjoyed and will enjoy them! Shroom on Some small yummy ones I left to mature. I hope they get huge One of the many large clusters I found. MMMMMMM A scattered grouping of some nice specimens A heart shaped cyan, it loves me Another scattered group A small cluster that has an injury Some good looking ones A couple of em Another big cluster Same cluster in my hands Happy hunting, and for you Oregon hunters... Get out there now! Update: I was sitting at home and couldn't stand the fact that I hadn't searched the entire area. I went back out again and found two more patches!!! The season isn't even in full swing yet, as I've spied hundreds of little babie clusters, and even more pinners. Here is a picture of a nice looking, yet dried and blue, biggun:

Wow, great finds VC. You've inspired me to keep up my hope. Tomorrow I'm going to go do some digging under every leaf I see.

Be sure to take your time when looking. Kneel down and spread the leaves infront of you, if you spot pins, spread more and you will most likely find some bigger ones. If there is nothing, take a step forward in the spot you just spread and spread some more leaves. They hid really well, and blend in with everything around them. If your tromping through leaves you never know what your stepping on.
Check around building complexes, if you dont see any good bark keep looking, alot of places use that crappy red/dark mulch stuff in one area, and good chips in another. Good luck!

The best thing about leaves is they keep the slugs off. I've been covering the cyans in my garden with leaves, so far they've been growing fine under there and are totally un-nibbled.
