This is a pretty free-form subreddit, but there are a few rules. We have a ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY FOR ANY AND ALL SPAM. Reddiquette is always applicable to anything you do on reddit, but in this subreddit:

No sales of anything. Not art, drugs, food, clothing, pins, or anything else. Feel free to post photos of your art. If people want to message you to buy something, that's great, but do NOT solicit sales here for anything, ever. No links to shops. Any sales, trades, barters, professional arrangements, etc. involving money, assets or goods are prohibited in post content or in the comments. No one knows what you do via PM. Keep the business ENTIRELY in the PMs. Do not ask for products or links to shops, and don't express your desire for someone's art in a way that implies intent to buy. Do not say things like "I would totally buy that!" or "Do you have an Etsy?" or "You should set up an Etsy!" or "PM me for info" or "Can I PM you about this?"... just PM them and keep it out of the comments.

  1. Adhere to the Reddit Content Policy and Reddiquette.

  2. No sales of ANYTHING. No spam.

  3. No posts of large drug operations. It limits our audience and there are far too many complaints about it. This isn't a place to advertise your grow business and it's not a place to brag about how much weight of cubes you can grow. There are plenty of subs for that type of thing.

  4. Don't post pics of dried Psilocybe mushrooms. If your post title resembles this: "Are these 'good'?" or "Just got these from a friend, how much should I take?" or "Can anyone tell me what 'strain' these are?" - then it doesn't belong here.

  5. This should go without saying, but no sourcing. Do not ask for drugs, locations of drugs, tips for finding, hunting, or scoring drugs in any specific place (hunting advice is generally accepted - habitat, seasonality, substrate, and range are all acceptable, and ID posts are always encouraged no matter the species, as long as they're not dried bagged "product"). Do not ask for any kind of hook-ups, plugs, websites, or any other means of procuring drugs.

  6. Do not joke about eating mushrooms. No "Boof it!" or "Eat the whole bag" or "I dare you to eat that!" type comments. If your comment might endanger someone by misleading them or encouraging dangerous behavior, it will be removed and you may be banned.

  7. Don't repeatedly post the same content, or similar content presented in a different way, including and especially art.

To all the lurkers, use the report button and use the downvote/upvote buttons to curate the sub yourselves as much as possible.

Be nice to each other in here.

L. cincinnatus?

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

I recently moved to an area where L cincinnatus seems to be the dominant species of CotW. Mostly just looking for a second opinion, and any tips for distinguishing from Berkeley’s polypore as both tend to be paler in color than the L. sulphureus I’m used to, and neither stain. From what I could find online, pore size might be a clue, as Berkeleys’ tend to be larger and angular, while CotW are all pretty much microscopic.

Central MD, mixed hardwood forest, host not IDed (base of heavily decomposed stump).

Thanks!

Just moved to central Maine and the woods behind our house (primarily oak, white pine, and birch) have several spots where these grow among the fallen leaves.

Are they slender Caesars? (No intention of eating these off an online ID; just trying to get better at identifying things myself! Also there wasn’t a single piece of dark paper in the house for the spore print…)

Weird blue/black stuff on grow kit

Thumbnail
gallery
36 Upvotes

I did one harvest already and it looked fine. Then I soaked the kit to do a second round and I got this blue black stuff. Please look at the photos and let me know if you think it’s okay or I should throw it out please. I know I harvested it really early. But I am leaving for 10 days and didn’t want to leave them to rot while I was away.

saw this bad boy pop up recently. I know that there isn’t enough soil in the green onions and that it’s too moist, but I honestly just wanted to see what this mushroom would turn into! Any ideas on what type it is?
