I went foraging for shrooms y'all and came up!
So over the last few days I've been going out after and during rains to check for mushrooms...this is the perfect season to look around! When the weather goes from hot to cold and vice versa with heavy rains...it activities alot of dormant mycelium to start putting out fruits!
So i found 3 that i would deem as interesting and worth a mention!
1st pic: the octopus 🐙 stinkhorn (Clathrus archeri) which is a fairly stinky fungus when fully developed. Here , it has just emerged with it freaky tentacles still entact...once it releases it's spores it will look like an upside down octopus 🐙! It attracts flies that become covered in its spores and spreads them that way!!
2nd pic: the hairy oyster mushroom (Lentinus strigosus)! Not a choice edible but it is edible!!! Get them while they are younger and not the older ones!!
3rd/4th/ 5th Pic: River teachers (Psilocybe ovoideocystidiata) which are a native to North armerican soil psylocybin active mushroom. I've been gathering these for over 7 years now... They are definitely magical!!
Have you seen any mushrooms out in your area recently??
If you do, post them here!
