went out walking today and found loads of mushrooms in the grassy areas but none in the wood chips. I had people tell me to wait till the second rain and i guess there right. I seriously didn't see one mushroom growing in any of the say 50 - 100 wood chip piles. maybe it's just me or this town, is any body else finding mushrooms in wood chips after that rain?

p.s. i'm in napa not too far from the bay mabey i shoud drive to marin

purple, you're fine in Napa..that's one of the few places I've never checked out, cause it's a little too far on a bike/bus, but seriously, that's close enough, and shouldn't be any worse than marin.

It's too early right now all over, even on the coast for most woodchip piles. It's gonna take a couple more weeks even with some good rains

You got just as much rain as we did here in the city...even more. Those lbm and more fragile mycenas, etc you see in the grass are always the first to come up, and right now it's mostly in heavily watered grass, anywhere in N california.

Ya see, there was one post from Sacramento today, and I can bet it's the same thing there too, a spot that's already watered.

even most places on the coast that are watered, there's hardly nuttin..Not even mycenas and pans in alot of places, much less hypholomas and cyans.

there's plenty of time...no hurry, just be glad we didn't get a hard freeze like Washington did last week
