2/18 C. FL - Paintball or fungi or something else?
    #9825301 -

Went hiking yesterday and found nothing growing from dung or soil = slow start to the season Central Florida. Last year at this time I was finding actives. The cold snaps and freezes this year have had an impact.

This looks like a paintball shot, but I think not. Any guesses?




Is this Ganoderma?  Is this a good specimen to simmer and make Reishi tea?  thanks in advance.




Same thing with the white shelf fungus - Is it a type of Ganoderma?  Is the white kind a good specimen to eat? or make Reishi tea?










I don't usually resort to looking for shelf fungus but I switched gears 1/2 way into my hunt to look for Gyms...no luck as of yet...really bummed nothing and I mean nothing was growing in dung or in the soil...in my opinion due to the unseasonbly colder weather here.



peace and happy hunting ya'll:tongue:

I also just got back from a C. FL hunt and yielded nothing but some solitary, firm, porous mushrooms, and one peculiar orange-gilled mushroom. Though, I saw tons of those white shelves everywhere. It would be interesting if they were useful whatsoever.

I believe they are useful...at least for decomposing dead or decaying trees...but I believe they are useful for us as well...I'm trying to confirm their ID and make use of them.

I can't imagine somebody trying to munch down one of those. In an attempt to collect one of them, i spent a minute or so trying to kick it off of a tree with no success.

It's a paintballer who either got lost or couldn't find anyone to shoot.  I see this all the time when I hunt.  They don't seem to fuck with the mushrooms so I don't care.

Ok since I can't buy any facts around here...can I at least buy a vowel?
