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...
They don't look like B. bicolor to me. The stipes are too thin and curvy for what I know as bicolor. Interestingly enough, I have found two similar boletes in...
I went for a walk in some of my usual spots and saw only the dried-up beginnings of smooth chanterelles and a few large old and dried trumpets. Did I miss them...
Well I think I answered my own question... I checked the messages from 2 years ago and it looks like they were fruiting strongest in my area the middle of...
Hi Frank,   Don't wait until August. We get out best fruitings here on the Delmarva, in mid-late July depending on the rains.   [Just across the...
Hi Frank - Â Â It looks like Boletus miniato-olivaceus. Best Wishes, Lance ... From: Frank <wildwestmilford@...> Subject: [NJMYCO] bolete IDPlease check...
I found chanterelles at King's Gap last weekend, and people were finding black trumpets in June. It seemed at the time as though July stuff was coming up early...
I found black trumpets under oaks the last week of June, but so far haven't found any chanterelles. I have never had much luck finding chanterelles in...
Hi All, Well I've been waiting for the schooms to get going here in Eastern PA. Finally things have picked up. I found my first Chanterelles, but they were...
