We've been getting a little sprinkle, at least, down here on a pretty regular basis. It's never gotten really dry. I just wonder if that heat wave earlier this...
Cool photos; I especially like the one that shows the bioluminescence and the natural-lighting condition... I had seen extended exposure shots of the glow...
To get you all in mood: Here's what we found last weekend here in KY. Note the morel season here is about 2-3 weeks earlier than NJ, and was probably at its...
Well found some Half frees (Morchella semilibera) today. Pictures are in a folder morels09. I was lookiing in an area where I found both Half Frees and M....
Usually the half frees fruit just before, and coincidentally, with the M. esculenta. This has been a wierd year, compounded by a dry late winter, followed by...
I know we have raw milk advocates in the club, and I just heard there is a bill in the NJ assembly to make it legal. Does anyone have news about this? Carol...
Hi All, By any chance, would somebody have the results of a foray that the group did at the Graver Arboretum in Pennsylvania a few years ago. Thanks, Bruce...
Hi Folks, I'm new to the group but I was wondering if anyone was familar with this mushroom that I collected yesterday at Pocomoke River State Park in...
During yesterday's rainfall I visited a reliable oyster mushroom stump in Northern NJ, and discovered that a a bright yellow, slimy something was making...
Hi Mike,   It's the plasmodial stage of a Physarum slime mold - most likely Physarum polycephalum. Check back in a few days and you should see thousands...
I have a source for good black morels- completely dried, caps only. Price is around $75 per half pound dried weight (thats about 7 pounds fresh). It's enough...
Is anyone else finding boletes? I found these on June 14th under some old white pines? They had an olive spore print,and white reticulations near the top of...
Hi Group, Â Â The beautiful Boletus edulus "pics" brought to mine this attractive Boletus carminiporus that I collected last week in Salisbury, MD. Â Â ...
Ah yes, you have indeed found one of the Boletus edulis complex! Lucky you! I've found a few, but the slugs have been having their fill. I'd see a "button",...
We seem to be having an early season because of the rain. I have already found Boletus bicolor, Boletus chrysenteron, Suillus granulatus, Gyroporous castaneus,...
The one that I ate looks much the same as what Liz found underneath, the top looked kind of like the photo of boletus hortensii on the groups home page. Can...
Here are a few more shrooms that I found today. The photos are under June boletes, although some are definitely not boletes. Thanks to your help last year, I...
I have been getting all these mushrooms in my front yard that look like amanitas. Could they be Amanita Rubescens? All the characteristics fit except the...
It's difficult to tell from the photos, but it's not unusual for A. rubescens to be appearing around this time. In some years, they are so plentiful that you...
Hi Jim, Thank you for the info and the good advice. Fortunately I'm not that hungry so eating these guys is not in my plans. I Included four new pictures in...
Penny, If you can post messages you can see the photos. Just go to the left of the page, click on Photos and you will get all the albums in storage. Then...
Hi Patrick,   That last bunch of photos is really great - shows the volva and cap. I agree with Jim - it really looks like Amanita rubescens. "Blushing"...
Hi all, Again mushrooms growing in my front yard. These are appearing next to the house on a bed with camellias and a heavy straw mulch. Spore print olive...
I wouldn't say those were bicolor. The stem is too twisty. They are so faded I can't be 100% sure, but I think they are probably Boletus chrysenteron, the red...
