Great video Luke. I’m very jealous of your finds, it won’t be long before the season starts here in the UK.

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thank you. And I wish you a nice season then!

[@HollerHunter]

I love finding several different kinds of edible mushrooms like you did here. Thank you for sharing.

[@LukesMushrooms]

My pleasure. Thank you for the comment :)

[@fabulousfungi529]

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thanks for your comments, glad you like the chanterelle :)

[@corazonespina9836]

Another great find Luke,so infotmative of you..looking forward for your next vlog

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thanks for the comment :)

[@isoldepeters5004]

Super Video. Immer so interessant. Habe heute 700 Gramm Cantarellus cibarius gefunden und viele Amanita Fulva.

[@stevenowns1]

Would you be open to laying audio over a video explaining your background in mushrooms? Who got you into them? What you’ve learned over the years? Been watching for a year! Very cool deal you have going on!

[@fabulousfungi529]

thats an awesome idea

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thanks for the suggestion. Maybe someday in the future, will see :)

[@oxygene9082]

Wow, very nice tour! All of those mushrooms (except for the Russula cyanoxantha) grow here (in western germany) more like at the end of august/ beginning of september. found your channel today, great videos, thanks alot for sharing. It has not been raining here for a while, so no mushrooms for me :)

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thank you for the comment, good luck with your mushrooms :)

[@d0nnerknispel64]

16:52 I think this is not Amanita fulva, but instead Amanita battarrae. Do you see this characteristic ring dividing the grooved outer hat zone from the flat inner zone? Also, the grey-brownish colors would be typical.

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thank you for the comment, I think you are right.

[@jonallycrisd.atendido9169]

What country is this? I love watching mushroom picking. Love love from PHILIPPINES 💚

[@LukesMushrooms]

This video is from Slovakia. Thanks for the comment :)

[@jonallycrisd.atendido9169]

@@LukesMushrooms oh, that's why. Btw your videos are all beautiful, keep it up💚💚

[@motiask]

Wow. Yummy finds.😍

[@LukesMushrooms]

Glad you like them :)

[@chriswheeler9124]

Some good finds! Im waiting patiently for the season to start properly here. How are you cooking your blushers?

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thank you :) About blushers, I gave all of these to my friend. But in general I would peel the skin from the hat and then fry on pork fat probably.

[@chriswheeler9124]

@@LukesMushrooms I have never cooked mushrooms with pork fat before, I will try this next time!

[@svenjensen600]

Great vid as usual. Do you have a rule for how many days/weeks after rain you will forage?

[@thedon4023]

I'm only a novice but think it's usually 5-7 days after rain.

[@LukesMushrooms]

I think it depends on many factors, mainly about how much dry it was before and maybe also how warm it is. Most of experienced mushroom hunters say that they grow about 1-2 weeks after the first significant rain. But if it rains regularily then I would also recommend to check the forest regularily.

[@sriayupatni]

Is the brown fungus similar to fly agaric not poisonous...!?

[@rubenh7338]

They are Blushers. Taste great but part of the Amanita family. The most deadly mushrooms in the Western hemisphere are also Amanitas: Deathcap, Destroying Angel. Only go after these when you REALLY know what you're doing as eating the wrong Amanita can kill you.

[@mathieuachard3592]

Nice vid. Bucket vs basket?

[@LukesMushrooms]

Thanks. I prefer basket :)

[@karenbergmann209]

Are those Boletes edible?

[@LukesMushrooms]

If you mean Boletus edulis, then yes :)

[@skyrealitytv7345]

Wow the picking mushrooms starting now, but the red one is poisonous right?❤

[@LukesMushrooms]

Yes, the red one (Fly agaric) is considered to be poisonous.
