Help IDing Laughing Gyms.

#7113671 - 07/01/07 01:19 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

I've found what may be laughing gyms. I've written down all the ID requirements and plan on comparing them with a specimen that I'll have in my hand. I'll come back with a full description (probably not pics) and a spore print before I eat them. For anybody that may be worried, if I have any shred of doubt that they're not good, I'm not gonna eat them. Even a life-changing trip isn't worth the risk of death.

I just have a couple questions now. First, what color should a Gymnopilus spectabilis spore print be? The guide I saw said rusty brown to orange brown in potassium hydroxide. Would it be the same as a print on paper? If not, what color should it be?

Second, what are some look-alikes for Gymnopilus spectabilis that I need to look out for? All I need is a species name, I can look up what it may do myself.

Thanks in advance.

These are the TEKs I use. They're all as cheap and easy as possible, just like your mom.
