Shrooming in Pennsylvania
    #8165049 - 03/19/08 12:28 AM (16 years, 14 days ago)

Hello....im new here...names Luke and I find psychedelics fascinating:ooo:

So amazing that I want to go find shrooms and eat them....so to get started I know pretty much nothing except not to be an idiot and go eat wild shrooms without knowing about them.
I live in a rural area of Western Pa with cow fields filled with cow patties everywhere. Also lots of semi-tall grass fields...also along with lots of fertile ground in the woods with pine trees and other trees everywhere.

When will shrooms start growing...right now its still cold as hell here. When spring comes will they start popping up? And is it true that if theres a shroom growing on a cow pattie that its safe to trip off of??

Please explain where to find/what to look for.

PS: Dont think im dumb....cause I learn fast and pretty soon ill be like all of yinz :mushroom2:(Pittsburgh talk for you guys)lol

Ok get good pics of all the mushrooms you can find and post them here until you can identify them all. Get a digital camera with macro mode. Also check craigslist and ebay for an inexpensive microscope.

What you want to do, is just to go out and sniff around, learn whats growing and learn the ecosystems around your area, it wouldn't make anysense to me to study up on all kinds of fungus then walk around and try and look for things that may never fruit in your area.

This thread has been closed.

Reason:
Luke, I'm happy to hear that you know better than to eat random mushrooms.  That is a very good start.  :wink:

All of the answers to these questions can be easily found on the site, so if you're serious, then here is where you should start.




Quote:

I. Mushroom Hunting Forum rules

3. Do not ask what mushrooms can be found growing in your state or immediate area.
This information is easily found in the Mushroom Hunting FAQ and/or has been posted at least once elsewhere on the net. Also see this document: http://www.shroomery.org/8461/Which-mushrooms-grow-wild-in-my-area

6.  No asking when or where mushrooms, or a specific mushroom species will grow.
This includes, asking what habitat a mushroom[s] can be found- or their preferred fruiting conditions.  This can be very simply answered by using the "search posts" feature: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/search.php





Also, please try using the "Search Posts" feature, it is extremely useful:
