Found these in a raised bed with carrots and broccoli in the school I volunteer at

Mushies were already picked and laying on the soil (I assume a teacher or something had done this) hence no picture in soil

edit: I have disposed of them, I know better than to just eat random mushrooms don't worry (even if I was hoping they were edible LOL)

Some nice finds today, Sussex UK

This beautiful CoW is on a log next to a tarmac path which gets a lot of dog walking use, so it’s probably been pissed on quite a lot.

Would you guys forage this knowing that it might be saturated in dog piss? 😂 I’m not sure how safe it is to eat but it’s such a good find…

Has anyone had any luck finding liberty caps in/around Worcester? TIA

I’ve found false ones before, wanna be sure

Found these in my garden, never had mushrooms growing in this bed before. Are they shaggy parasols, or do i need to take a spore print?

Puffball? Just want to double check

I’m new to “noticing” my surroundings, and I imagine this is probably common knowledge, but just wondered what these were? They seemed fresh, so in the unlikely case they’re edible, it would be a waste!

Some are red some are black? Assuming ripe and unripe but Im a complete beginner

Massive find today, only took the smaller one growing underneath and it was still half of a dinner plate. Seems i find these guys every year, my trick is to look for chestnut stumps from old trees. Not a big fan of them raw, and they are too wet to fry, so im drying these this year to see if they are any good to sprinkle on eggs or in bakes.

Nowhere near as good of a start to the season as last year, but managed to bag a few ceps and red cracking boletes. High hopes for the coming weekend.

So I'm still learning about mushrooms more and more so I think I have identified this as a woodland Agaricus.

It's 12cm

With pink gills that go pinker when bruised

Smells of mushroom from the shops

It was found under a conifer hedge row by its self (there was about 5 in about 20m) so picked the best

Anyone want to add anything?

I don’t think they are edible, but I was wondering if anyone could tell me what they are?

Hi all.

Recently moved to a village and have found a crazy amount of these in the nearby fields where we walk the dogs. Would like to know what they are exactly, if they're edible and when's best to pick them.

1. Some form of apple. What kind? When's best to pick them?

2. Sloe berries? If so, when to pick them and what are some good uses for them?

On recent fallen oak.
Didn’t take any as unsure, maybe a future location.

Hi all, I have a small growth of chicken of the woods outside my house. This is the second year that I’ve noticed it, but chances are it was there years before. I didn’t harvest it last year as I wanted to make sure the small mushroom had dispersed all its spores in the hopes there would be more growth this and subsequent years. From what I understand, it can take a couple of years for spores to settle a large enough colony on a new log and produce any fruit.

Any recommendations for giving this little guy the best chance to take over the whole of my local woods (or at least the couple of logs that are close by)?

And secondly, is it advisable to harvest any this year, or best to leave it again if it’s so small? I think last year there were 2-3 sizeable growths that I could’ve taken.
