All the good mushroom books seem to be like $400 now

E- also I don’t know what I’m taking about but I did find a decent amount of morels this year

I started using the app Picture Mushroom on iOS and it’s great, just FYI

There’s been so many oysters here we practically stopped picking them up.




Finally found some chanterelles :)

This one, maybe Fomitopsis pinicola, red banded polypore?

Do you use the Picture Mushroom app? That’s how it identified it for me.

Picture mushroom thinks bloody brittlegill or winter russula



Picture Mushroom is a fun app. You have to try several shots sometimes and it’s smart to read up on the options you’re given, don’t trust a result from one photo, use your own judgement too.

I wouldn’t rely on it for almost anything but it can give an easy head start

On a side note, I'm tossing around the idea of growing a barrel of mushrooms myself after watching various youtubes. Anyone have any experience / recommendations in that arena? Preferably I'd like to start now because I'm super impatient.

I’m really just the assistant, my gf has more experience but we’ve been doing well with easy oysters this year. She suggests this series:

And make sure you sterilize, an instant pot makes it easy. You can buy syringes full of spores from Amazon. Go for blue oysters first, they grow fast and eat contaminants.

Yeah my sister in Sweden is raking in the chanterelles and I’m jealous because this year in NY has been terrible

After last couple years of lovely foraging in NY the rains have finally brought back the oysters. We found so much more than this and I’ve been gorging on them for days
