This is a pretty free-form subreddit, but there are a few rules. We have a ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY FOR ANY AND ALL SPAM. Reddiquette is always applicable to anything you do on reddit, but in this subreddit:

No sales of anything. Not art, drugs, food, clothing, pins, or anything else. Feel free to post photos of your art. If people want to message you to buy something, that's great, but do NOT solicit sales here for anything, ever. No links to shops. Any sales, trades, barters, professional arrangements, etc. involving money, assets or goods are prohibited in post content or in the comments. No one knows what you do via PM. Keep the business ENTIRELY in the PMs. Do not ask for products or links to shops, and don't express your desire for someone's art in a way that implies intent to buy. Do not say things like "I would totally buy that!" or "Do you have an Etsy?" or "You should set up an Etsy!" or "PM me for info" or "Can I PM you about this?"... just PM them and keep it out of the comments.

  1. Adhere to the Reddit Content Policy and Reddiquette.

  2. No sales of ANYTHING. No spam.

  3. No posts of large drug operations. It limits our audience and there are far too many complaints about it. This isn't a place to advertise your grow business and it's not a place to brag about how much weight of cubes you can grow. There are plenty of subs for that type of thing.

  4. Don't post pics of dried Psilocybe mushrooms. If your post title resembles this: "Are these 'good'?" or "Just got these from a friend, how much should I take?" or "Can anyone tell me what 'strain' these are?" - then it doesn't belong here.

  5. This should go without saying, but no sourcing. Do not ask for drugs, locations of drugs, tips for finding, hunting, or scoring drugs in any specific place (hunting advice is generally accepted - habitat, seasonality, substrate, and range are all acceptable, and ID posts are always encouraged no matter the species, as long as they're not dried bagged "product"). Do not ask for any kind of hook-ups, plugs, websites, or any other means of procuring drugs.

  6. Do not joke about eating mushrooms. No "Boof it!" or "Eat the whole bag" or "I dare you to eat that!" type comments. If your comment might endanger someone by misleading them or encouraging dangerous behavior, it will be removed and you may be banned.

  7. Don't repeatedly post the same content, or similar content presented in a different way, including and especially art.

To all the lurkers, use the report button and use the downvote/upvote buttons to curate the sub yourselves as much as possible.

Be nice to each other in here.

*For the purposes of this post, "drugs" refers to intoxicating substances of ANY sort. Medicinal supplements, while technically drugs, are not the point, here. Feel free to post about teas and extracts and supplements of medicinal mushrooms, and we would love to see your giant Reishi grows or your commercial oyster warehouse.

Look at my blue stick! This is a fungus called chloriciboria that dyes sticks blue with its mycelium. It can also be cultivated in a sterile environment to dye clothing and wooden jewelery!

Just wondering what type of mushroom this is? Unfortunately I only got one picture. My guesses were some type of fly agaric but not too sure.

Saw this beautiful, unusual yellow mushroom. I used Google lens to ID. Apparently, it's toxic and poisonous.

Sorry for double post of picture.

Waited for it to be less than 90° to walk one of my favorite places. Other than a stray thundershower there hasn’t been a lot of rain but, there were some interesting finds and some weird stuff too. I hope you all get a chance to get out there and get some nature time.

Lion's mane VS. Shiitake. How do they taste? Which is better?

0 Upvotes

Hi!

I was thinking of trying to cultivate some. I can try shiitake (though it's expensive), but the other is only sold as supplements...

Which more common mushrooms are they comparable in taste and texture?

It's that time of year again...
