A great video Marlow. Atila is a great addition to your team.
I got these in my front yard :)
They're doing very well on the log that I brought home.
Great video on one of my favourite mushrooms to pick... The ultimate backup mushroom to have incase you don't find ought else.
I have been drying them and adding to tea, looks like I might need to look into the extra steps to get the full benefit of the PSK compound.
Attila is very interesting and provides a great explanation of turkey tail and it's traits.
Great vid. Paul Stamets talks on a JRE episode about these helping rid his mother of cancer. Whilst it was at a point that they thought she wouldn't be able to recover.
Thanks Marlow, I remember Attila & his amazing knowledge on the Fungi Forums (I was kicked off! 🤷♀) I think Mr Stamets loves Turkey tails too... will watch the rest...
Super helpful💚🇬🇧🌱 thanks so much I've been doing alcohol & water extractions & knowing I'll get more from berries saves me the whole other process😁 & I don't need to buy alcohol anymore! Manny's thanks to Attila💚🇬🇧🌱
What a amazing video, brilliant..
I always look forward to your videos, this one was fascinating. Thank you.
Great video and nice to see Átila! Amazing knowledge 👏
Great knowledge. Thank you!
Turkey tail is my favourite mushroomy chewing gum. I love the taste. No idea how much of the polysaccharides I get that way though.
Great video thanks .
We have king Alfred’s cakes on a maple stump. I also thought they only grew on ash but the evidence suggests otherwise.
I picked some beautiful Turkey Tail the other day. All the same purple tint on them.
Fantastic video as always but I’m particularly interested in medicinal mushrooms 👍🏻
you should see the ones iv just grown and harvested and still have 4kg left to harvest tommoz
Fantastic video Marlow, will have to save some money and book a day out at some point.
Thanks Marlow, all you need to know really in one very well explained video. Your book is fantastic I've recommended it to a lot of people.
Thanks :)
Brilliant, packed full of great information!
I boil these and make noodle soup every time I’m sick, works like magic and makes me better every time!!
We've found Turkey Tail extract (powder) is a really good addition to food adding colour and flavour, good for vegetarian gravy..
Thank you Marlow. Please, splash out on a remote clip-on mic so we can hear you!
Nice one Marlow. I've been waiting for a vid of yours on Turkey Tail, a fungi that I've been interested in for a while. Thank's to you both for all the information.
The criminal investigation was very informative.
According to an American Mycologist the Turkey tail mushroom make an excellent drink or stock!
2 videos in one week?! Yay :)
Thank you. So interesting 😊
I knew about them but had never seen one before and whilst walking through a park I saw a sign which included a picture of them but you couldn't tell the size. I looked and got what I thought were Turkey Tails but I found out they were the much larger Artist Conks, another fungus with medicinal properties but nowhere near studied.
Great video! Lovely mushroom!
Theres been loads this year up here in north Yorkshire
Excellent
Thanks
Such great information. I've been doing turkey tail all wrong by making tintures. I'm wondering if I simmer in a crock pot for a few days and then use the juice to make a wine if it will hold the potency and increase the shelf life. I really enjoy all your videos. Learning so much !
Wow, I did not expect to see a fellow hungarian on this channel 😅
After this vid I started collecting Trametes in my local forest. I must be a very sensitive or a very exhausted person, because the first sip already had a surprisingly strong positive effect on my body, and I only used one of the smaller fruiting bodies, so about 1 gram per cup of tea, and I use the same mushroom two or three times, until the water in the cup will no longer be of a slight yellow colour, even after repeated boiling. /using a turkish style electric kettle for this purpose/
Ganoderma is also highly medicinal.
Brilliant video, I’d love to forage some. Do you know if I’d unlock the same medicinal properties by drying, powdering and capsuling these? Or do they need to be boiled up? Thanks
Is it to late to harvest turkey tails if they are hard and not flexible? Will they come back and be better next year?
Yep heavy hangerien akcent
I recognize my compatriots anywhere
Edible
I love mushrooms. Can you make a video on how to digest them??
The turkey tail
Theres not very digestible. I recommend steeping them in hot water and making a tea.
Easiest thing is to soak them in vodka for a month, sieve and there is your cure all potion 😃
@@animalswin2105 I can't touch alcohol. I'm allergic 😳 I come out on bail covered in cuff marks. 😂
@@themuttsrightnut ok. That was The easiest and fastest recipe so thé other option is to (always freeze for 3 days any mushroom for médicinal use to kill of parasites) boil them one hour then blend them in a blender then dehydrate the mush and put the powder in jars but that's time consuming and thé powder urgh is like drinking wood dust! Or like they said in the video, boil for at least one hour than drink as a tea (disgusting taste, mind).
Excellent video, the extraction is not quite true, just like birchpolypore extraction is best done with water and alcohol at about ph 9. Use both Vodka and glycerine as glycerine contains 3 alcohol groups OH, the stoichiometery is about 100ml glyerin (glycerol) from supermarket 400ml vodka and 500ml water, temperature must be kept below 78degrees C the boiling point of alcohol, heat for 1-2 hours at 70C and put a wet cloth on pan lid which is periodically re-rinsed to cool it again, then store in a kilner or demijohn for 2 weeks and its ready to take. 1 Tablespoon of sodium bicarbonate raises PH and helps extraction......This works very well with birchpolypore to extract so well its the bitterest thing you ever tasted but Turkey tail is mild.
You never let Atilla finish his sentence at the end :(
What are the tell tell from a red beltedconch an the ganaderma
No answer?
@@timmynormand8082 sorry, but I rarely commenting on UA-cam (especially in business hours when I am still working), and I am not sure if I fully understand the question.
Are you looking for the different ID features (to learn how to separate them) or their applications? Also, which Ganoderma species do you mean? Our European Ganoderma lucidum, Ganoderma applanatum, etc. or the cultivated Asian Ganoderma sichuanense, syn: Ganoderma lingzhi which IS the true Reishi?
@@attilafodi5517 ok because in in the US think it's the reshie gansderma sugea ?
@@timmynormand8082 yes, Ganoderma tsugae is one of the US "Reishi" species. We only have 6 species in Europe: G. adspersum (sometimes referred as G. australe), G. applanatum, G. carnosum, G. lucidum, G. pfeifferi and G. resinaceum. The one on this video is Ganoderma adspersum.
So, the easiest way to separate our red-belted bracket (Fomitopsis pinicola) and southern bracket (Ganoderma adspersum) is to check their (sterile/infertile) upper surface or skin. First of all, there is no red colour on skin of Ganoderma adspersum, also it is matt, not sticky and shiny as Fomitopsis pinicola's skin (which is sticky and shiny because of the secreted resinous/lacquery droplets). Also, the pores of Fomitopsis pinicola are much smaller (4-6 roundish pores per mm), while Ganoderma adspersum has about 3-4 round pores per mm.
@@attilafodi5517 nice !! Now I realize exactly what you mean can't thank you enough for replying back my friend
Chinese use Rhino horn in medicine which is just Keratin same as our finger nails, so i won't put much into them using Turkey tails lol.
Anyone know how to get into mycology in the uk?
Charlesmyco is a mycologist also resides in Uk.
He's on instagram.
Does not look very purple to me. More like a dark grey.
We have a lot of these mushrooms, do you need them？😁
