I’d have thought they’d have more of the “lawyer’s wig” look.

Quite young – not silks… Need to be for edibility. They deteriorate really quickly, once picked.
Mild tasting to point of blandness. I usually sweat off shaggy inkcaps, put them into a small ceramic container, crack an egg on top, and bake quickly in oven. Lots and lots of seasoning.
These ones, I just threw into this evening’s last reheat of the chicken and horse mushroom casserole. All grand.

I had a go at growing lions mane and turkey tail mushrooms, on the back of joe rogans’s show with paul stamets (you should give it a chance @Malarkey). No luck with the lions mane but turkey tails took care of themselves

Stick to.your ham salad, this is men’s business!
Come back to me when you’ve found some giant puffballs or gotten a nice post for the gourmet preparation of field mushrooms. Your mycelium balls have yet to drop.

Sincere apologies, @ironmoth and @glenshane. Somehow only saw those posts now… Will come back to them.
Would be fairly sure not.
Some false chanterelles came up a while back on a brother’s lawn – same lawn as those horse mushrooms appeared.
Thats what they are … i downloaded that mushroom identification app. Yellow stainers appeared on the same composted wood chip- which is mostly from pine trees

@Malarkey an interesting segment on Saturday Kitchen on how to grow your own Shitake mushrooms.

I’ve grown mushroom from spore prints before. It’s a long and arduous process from inoculating brown rice flour substrate with the spores, adjusting light and room temp to recreate subsoil darkness and moisture, to then increasing light and humidity to replicate above grown conditions to bring on a flush from the mycelium
You get about 4 flushes from what I recall which was hundreds of mushrooms. once done one though, not sure you could be bothered doing it all again as took about 6 weeks in total I think
They suggest an easier way on that show?!
Thanks. What channel had that programme?
