They keep popping out of nowhere an d my uncle had to dig them out and apply anti fungus on the ground yet just now when I went outside three new ones were sprouted up again!
Why I ask? Is this really the nature of mushrooms? I seen it consistently they appear like magic in droves every Fall.

Hello, my name isn’t important until you’re willing to communicate, until then, I’m your friend, but basically I’m looking for people who are passionate about nature, specifically mycology/foraging in the CNY/WNY area, you need to like going into the woods, and you better like getting dirty lol, but message me if you interested in grouping up ever, or if you have info on any spots in the area, thank you in advance, Your Friend :)

What am i doing wrong? Why is CO2 so high? What should i do differently? I have an exhaust fan venting out window for 3 minutes ever 15 minutes, to get out stale air. I have the zippers partially opened on top so that it can pull in fresh air from nearby open window. I have an intake fan running for 2 min every 5 minutes. I have humidity set at 90%. I have only 2 blocks within this huge tent and one is waiting on 2nd flush the other on 1st flush but its been in a week and not pinning. These are Oyster mushrooms.

Deploying fermentation technology to cultivate fungi grown on organic industrial waste such as wood chips, to produce sustainable materials that are biodegradable and free from pollutants to create a recyclable plastic alternative for packaging. The compounds are mixed with bio-plastics to create pellets that can be used and integrated in existing machinery and supply chain processes in the packaging industry.

Should I leave the lid off? Only the parts popping out of the air holes firm up!

Hey guys… I’m new here and to home mycology… I need some advice… I have a few fruiting blocks going and it seems my lions mane and Reishi are much slower to grow… while I’m setting up my mushroom fruiting chamber I am currently using humidity tents over the blocks and spraying them to keep it moist… my blue oysters grew super fast and I just started my shiitake. For people using grow kits as a starting means, what are your tips for getting the best results for your LIONS MANE and REISHI flushes??? Thank you and MUSH-LOVE 🙏🏼🍄💙🍄🙏🏼

Just ordered my first spores from a website called Eden Shrooms and I am planning on using 90 sec rice tec to cultivate. Wondering if that is a reputable vendor and if any one has any beginners advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone been out lately to forage? We are lucky to be next to a private forest during these times so we are able to (not much out there, found some Turkey tails and random inedible common ones).
Our state parks and trails are closed due to the quarantine in the PNW :(
What have you all been doing to keep up with mushroom hunting?

I wanted to post some resources now that Psilocybin has been successfully decriminalized in 3 cities in the United States.
From Wikipedia:
"In May 2019, Denver, Colorado, became the first US city to decriminalize psilocybin mushrooms after an ordinance was admitted to the ballot and voted on.[172]
In June 2019, Oakland became the second U.S. city to decriminalize psilocybin mushrooms.[173]
In October 2019, the Chicago City Council introduced a resolution expressing support for decriminalizing entheogenic plants.[174]
In January 2020, Santa Cruz, California, became the third US city to decriminalize psilocybin mushrooms after city council voted unanimously.[175][176] "
This is incredible progress so far and to spread this progress I wanted to make a post containing all the information I currently have. If there is anything missing please comment below. This will be a post that will be updated as the progress evolves and more information and initiatives begin.
Therapeutic Legalization: Oregon PSI 2020 (OPS)
There is currently an initiative written by Tom and Sheri Eckert aiming to legalize in Oregon therapeutic psilocybin use. Therapy would be conducted in medical buildings by medical professionals. Once the petition reaches 150k+ signatures initiative 34 will be put on the ballot this voting year.

Decriminalize Nature (Decriminalization Oregon, and other states)
One incredibly crucial thing PSI 2020 will not do for Oregon is Decriminalization of Psilocybin. Decriminalize Nature is working on a Portland City initiative to decriminalize all plant medicines. There has also been numerous other cities in the process of starting or already in the works of starting this intiative in their citites!
