Surprising Fungal Finds! Mushrooming in Late November

[@drewpknutz1410]

Yeah, when I was a kid in Port Orchard in the 80s one of the older kids somehow convinced me to eat a bunch of those little trail psilocybes while we were riding dirtbikes.. he ate a few and didnt die so I was game..I ate around 30 not knowing what was coming. Worst 3 hours of my 13 year old life.... LOL

[@av1421]

what happened? Describe it please?

[@aylafreeman298]

😂

[@uropygid]

My one and only experience with magic mushrooms was a cup of "tea" made from about 30 mushrooms. Best three days of my life.

[@uropygid]

@@av1421 My experience was wonderful. First, a pain I had in my neck for about 3 months vanished - for three days. Second, whenever I was going to sleep I had the feeling that I was floating over my bed. Third, for three days I felt nothing but happiness. The experience was nothing like alcohol or pot. I have never used anti-depressants, but I think that was the actual effect.

I love the dogs man you’re an awesome pet owner

[@BallardBaller]

Nice to see a GSP with tail still intact! Love those foot smellers

[@lilolmecj]

Those tails are a dangerous weapon though!

[@MegaGraham30]

Great video. Last Amanita was very interesting. Thanks ☘️🇮🇪

[@janmiebebekian7862]

Such an important video. Thank you.

[@oligoyoutube]

Hey Aaron! Dylan coming from Inland Mendocino County. I wanted to comment on the video from last week but thought id say it here as it directly applies. ‘It’s absolutely incredible how the diversity of fungi shown exactly matches my small sub-climate here in Mendocino County, CA. I am not getting the usuals but rather some ones I wasn’t expectinf. All Russulas (even Fragrantissima), The Hideous Gomphidius, and loads of all sorts of Amanitas and Hypholomas.’ Love your videos man :)) Really helping me out in terms of habitat.

[@TheSpikie22]

I'm in bragg!!😂

[@TheSpikie22]

Shoot let us go get some!

[@Foxyfreedom]

Similar environments! I love going to salt point and looking at all them mushrooms. Usually I look for porcinis but I also have a secret morel spot near lake Sonoma ;) the wildfires up here make it great!

[@Mike-to8hb]

You have some awesome dogs. I like mushrooms but dogs are the best. They are just a lot of love and fun.

[@stevee2452]

Man your knowledge is impressive and your videos are great! Wish we had someone making content of this quality in Pennsylvania!

[@willong1000]

In fact, you have an excellent KZbinr producing such content in PA. If anything, Adam Haritan, whose content is posted to KZbin via his "Know Your Land" channel, is perhaps even more knowledgeable on fungi as he often cites recent scientific research papers on the mycology topic. As well as mushrooms, Adam is quite knowledgeable about the trees and other plants native to your area. Just like Aaron does, Adam educates viewers on habitat features and mycorrhizal associations. I am a big fan of Adam's content--I just watch "Mushroom Wonderland" more because Aaron lives in my region and mostly* focuses upon our regional fungi. * Although, he has recorded mushroom videos as far away as India!

[@valleyofthemoon7113]

Aaron , Gunner & Loki ! 👍👍👍😊

[@swivels]

Great episode as per usual! If anyone here happens to be from NY please let your local senator know that you support assembly bill A114! It's well past time that we legalize these natural medicines! If New York can get this bill passed then hopefully it'll be one more domino towards federal legalization so that everyone can have the power to grow their own medicine.

[@lynnsbomb]

Don’t wait for permission from the governments gang members to be healthy. Legal or not.

[@brytonkenney1507]

Got out to mushroom wonderland today and OMG you are truly blessed to have these woods so close by what a true mosaic of nature.

[@Jvilla3478]

Good late season video Bruvv. I’m watching and trying to learn. I got to meet closer folks to forage with for sure. Have a great weekend man!

[@tiportangeles2696]

Thank you for taking us along. Really enjoyed ther video. Very educational!

[@th8298]

Very true. I might just show up there someday as well. 😊

[@lambbrookfarm4528]

Thanks for the fall walk. Happy holidays. Peace to all

[@MsValkyrie3]

Hi Aaron. Waiting for the beginning of the mushroom season here, in Monterey County, CA. There will be Porcini, Oyster mushrooms, Slippery Jacks, Lyon's Mane.

[@Zaratul420]

Love the videos keep them comming Aaron

[@aprilschneider5250]

I love winter too!

[@ssudul]

Thanks for the indepth info from a forager in SW WA. Love your dogs too!

[@weloveturtlessomuch4240]

Someone recently told me on inat that those Galerina are actually G. castaneipes, with the differentiating factors being the weaker annulus and dark grey/brown stipes. I couldn't find much information on them though, sounds like they may or may not be a synonym. I'm in your same county and recently found ps. cyan and galerina growing so close that the caps were touching each other, definitely something to be careful with. They looked almost the same from above

[@TheSpikie22]

I always use the logging tags to find new spots!

[@nickwhite2569]

Whats the connection you think?

I enjoy eating the Short-stemmed Russula (R. brevipes). Had one just yesterday here in Oregon! I like them 'lobsterized' too, but even without that, they are worth eating. My parents in Arkansas enjoy eating them, too. Too bad you didn't like your Laccaria, and you think of the Dacrymyces as boogers. There are good ways to prepare each of those so they are enjoyable, too. It's such a great time to be finding so many different types of fungi, for sure!

[@nickc2144]

The dogs are having a great time!

[@natedub1]

It would be cool to see some of the technical stuff you do off the trail like spore printing and how that works.

[@emmalouie1663]

pretty place love it, can see it out my window but not over there

Thank you! I am a novice and will follow your advice!

I should post a picture of this patch that has cyanescens and funeral bells growing within a few inches of each other

[@dranwarhossain6682]

Thank you for presenting nice video

[@sarahearnhart7602]

Was out foraging and ran into black winter oysters... I'm new to them. Are they a true oyster? Edibility? Thank you for your videos... so informative.

[@mindsprawl]

seasons dont fear the reaper, nor do the wind nor the sun or the rain.

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Hmm .. That's a common name I have not heard before. I wonder if you're speaking of the late fall oyster, or the fall oyster some people call it. Scientifically called Sarcomyxa serotina, It's kind of an olive green oyster type mushroom that's growing everywhere right now. From what I've heard they're pretty tasty.

[@cykassol368]

I wish I could find Oysters around KY. I would love to have them grow in my garden bed.

[@farrelltimlake9732]

I am in Lakebay on the KP and just joined the KPMS! Excited to learn more... and fortunate that I regularly also see one of your associates on the ice in Bremerton. Hoping to catch a lecture or go out in the woods with the group meet ups someday soon. Many thanks for making these vids.

[@StacyYMGraves]

This is all in my back yard in Clallam county

[@TurtleToastLove]

Found you on Mycena Facebook post ✌️ Upstate South Carolina

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Sweet!! Thank you! Welcome to Mushroom Wonderland 🍄

[@freegreenguru57]

Thanks for another good one little more confident in at least trying to identify I definitely have a ton of Russula in my back yard

[@SketchybrainD]

You should do genus break down video or even a series. It’s hard to learn these mushrooms when I don’t have time to get out to a real forest very much

[@lilolmecj]

I found a couple of local mushroom groups on Facebook that are quite active, and a very helpful source. I mostly just look in my yard, it is surprising how much variety there is just in one yard! And I found some I have never seen before , this year.

[@th8298]

Oh no Aaron .. . Now your spot will be taken by so many. Shoot. But it is a good idea to explain the difference... For sure !!! Witches butter is not bad. Different... But ok.

[@mushroomwonderland1]

I'm not too worried about it! There are plenty of mushrooms for all

[@bonniemcmillan3253]

Hi Aaron. New to your channel and local to your area. How can I find out about one of your classes? On another note…my GSP is older now, she was my service dog and now retired, could she still learn to find truffles?

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Hi there, you can join the mushroom club in Kitsap county. The link is in the description to the website! I'm not really sure about the dog but I've heard that old dogs can learn new tricks. My wife said "sure, why not." And she's a dog trainer😁🍄

[@69Jackjones69]

How did the Natives regard Liberty Caps, Cyanescens, Amanita Muscarias?

[@mushroomwonderland1]

Not much literature about it. I have heard tell that they didn't mess with them, a couple of times people ate mushrooms and got sick and they just disregarded them entirely. Another line of thought thinks that perhaps it's such a guarded secret that they just don't talk about it in modern times. Who knows. I wish there were more information.

[@69Jackjones69]

@@mushroomwonderland1 Interesting. I can imagine a Native wizard deep in the primeval Washington forest ages ago consuming magical mushrooms and entering the spirit realm, looking for something like the White Lodge from Twin Peaks.

[@awaystorkawaaay]

​@@mushroomwonderland1 natives in the PNW used traditions of spoken word for just about everything so I'm sure there are tales of psychedelics within those traditions

[@Fragrantbeard]

⁠​⁠@@mushroomwonderland1it is hard for me to believe mushrooms were written off entirely. So many more challenging things exist that were carefully consumed - devil's club comes to mind.

[@wickittiewhaat2495]

Is this banner forest? Thanks for sharing and I should really join the society as I live in Bremerton lol

[@mushroomwonderland1]

No it's not, but all the forests around here are similar habitat

[@timhaywood1100]

Another great episode Aaron! What was your dog munching on when you were talking about the Laccaria laccata at about 12:03? Hopefully not those Psillys.

[@richardphilibert4095]

Much thanks for that peace of knowledge in your wonderland ! Too bad thought for those wonderfull "big red" you past by a bit too fast .. 😂 😭😭😭

I based my assumption of a mushroom solely based on one of your videos now i have diarrhea now what LOL Just Kidding great info as usual thanks for the walk through nature.

8:28 "Once you have an eye for psilocybe they're just very obvious" - me trying to explain to friends how I can just tell from a quick look 😂 Such a true statement though. Once you find them, you know

Why do you keep pulling out the mycelium rather than cutting them at the base?

[@mushroomwonderland1]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6Wln4GLpLuso6ssi=DRBW8glYq8MjZxU5 I urge you to watch this video. It explains exactly why I pull them.

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- 5:00 why did you throw it if it is edible? You should've let someone else find it if you didn't want to eat it. What a waste

[@mushroomwonderland1]

There is 6.2 million of them in a 1 acre vicinity of the 1000's of access out here. It'll be fine.

Yea. A drop of water in an ocean. They’re all over. Russula and amanita muscaria grow everywhere here in the bay
