Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure out everything all at once . Breathe . You're strong . You got this . Take it day by day .
Thanks Sigmund
Lovely comment, thank you 💚
¡¡¡Wow, I´ve never seen so many penny buns together in my whole life!!! I´ve been foraging mushrooms for more than 40 years in Spain, Austria, Germany and other countries and I can assure you that what is in this video is something truly exceptional and wonderful. Congratulations to the guide for the magnificent video and for his great didactic expertise when it comes to explaining the world of mushrooms.
Thank you very much for your effort and the wonderful explanations. What I find disturbing is that the participants don't concentrate on you or the mushrooms, but are constantly filming or photographing with their mobile phones. Even though it's common nowadays, I find it careless and disturbing out in nature.
❤❤❤❤ the knowledge you have is outstanding….. the reassurance I have gained whilst foraging because of your clear descriptions and easy to absorb information has been the reason I now am addicted to spending every spare minute out in nature. Once intimidated by it all but slowing gaining the knowledge to reap the benefits and enjoy. Thank you
You are so welcome
Amazing video…! Super educational, thank you!
Wow, all those penny buns!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, nothing quite beats the three-dimensional aspect and a clear idea of size so your videos are a great complement to even the most extensive mushroom book library 😊
Thank you, very good teaching of cognitive mushrooms.
Thank you for inspiring me to forage mushrooms and greens. I feel like it's my new hobby.
What a fabulous finale, the most I've seen is two together just wow!
Psilocybin containing mushroom saved my life. The drastically reduced my benzodiazepine withdrawal allowing me to quite illicit pill addiction after three years of heavy daily use before it would had became medically dangerous to quit. it has also helped me to survive depression
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again again but it’s just so hard to source out of there.
came across the comments about bergwilly1 and I must say he is a genius.
came across the comments about him and I must say he is a genius.
I’m feeling the same way too. I put too much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety level. I am so glad to be part of this community.
Tripping is not really bad but find a good mycologist who will teach you the right things you need to know
Great video, its cool to see that you are getting more comfotable speaking to larger groups of people, keep it up!
The bay bolete, imlaria badia, stains blue - so is one of the exceptions to the rule, and as he says, are just as delicious as porcini.
2022 was the year of Porcini in lots of places, but this one is surreal!
Love it , Marlow that you don't really enjoy truffles😁 , same with me ! - don't understand the fuss about those😅
This video was so informative 😊 really enjoyed it! Looking forward to the next one ❤
nice video, ive been following you for a long time now and have learned loads, i love how you have broken down and simplified rules for edibles, keep up the great work.
For somebody trying to get into foraging mushrooms, this is gold! Very clear and easy to follow guidelines while covering a wide variety of mushrooms. I wonder if most of these grow in Sweden too. I'll find out soon ;)
Keep these videos coming!
Swedens a great place for mushrooms! Hope your journey into mushroom foraging has gone well so far! :)
Great and informative video. Thank you. Greting from Ireland.
Awesome video !
It's great to see, that all the mushrooms you presented in the video can currently be found in Southwest-Germany too. I'm in the forest whenever I find the time. The world of fungis is so exciting.
Woo! Love your vids :)
What a special day! I can tangibly feel the excitement of finding all those varieties of mushroom and in such profusion! Amazing! Guess I'll be booking a course for next September!
Great video, I've only recently gotten into mushroom picking and this year has been the best in Ireland for ceps also. Just one thing, I think the brown birch bolete turns blue when cut and is fine to eat. I'm going to go and look for chanterelles at the weekend, thanks for the motivation!
thats good to know as i foraged some today and when slicing for the dehydrator i noticed the blue stain ..
@@andreahodson7031 always consult a mushroom book 😀
i found my first bunch of chanterelles today, that smell of apricots is 100% true, i found a range from small to large, around haldon forest in the south west uk, i left a few immature ones to spore for next year, woot!! oh they taste amazing!!!!
Love all of your videos 😍
Very helpful video & explained very well. Thank you for your information & advice. Look forward to watching more of your videos.👍
Unbelievable field of porcini. Never seen anything like that
It was the best I’ve ever seen too :)
Marlow, this was awesome!
Thanks :)
awesome find....
QUALITY.
Much wow!
Here in Pennsylvania nearly all chanterelles have their stems eaten through by worms- often quite small ones. Thankfully they are often very plentiful and still delicious even with worm holes! ( worms themselves are rarely encountered- only the worm holes) Never heard of any insecticide associated with chanterelles.
That was incredible
I found the beefsteak yesterday 🙌 😍
Nice one! never found...yet! :)
I can't believe it Marlo, You've only gone and turned me into a groupie!
That was excellent
Fireman 🔥🔥🔥
Great video thanks .
What a wonderful foray
50:00 you found Boletus reticulatus mycorrhyzing with oak tree. Boletus edulis is mycorrhyzing with spruce trees.
i dont know abour apricot but now that i have personally forraged chanterelles a few times. i am very familiar with thier very unique scent i have never encountered anything that smells quite like it. i truly belive i could pick a chanterelle out of a group of 10 blindfolded by scent alone.
Yes love these videos
i have only seen one flush of penny buns. Is it over? does the same area flush many times until frost or is it only once?
Wow I've never seen that many ceps growing in a field.
It was a special day :) hopefully they’ll be there again when we go back to run a course in a couple of weeks!
Thanks for your videos.
Oh my god, I thought Porcini was supposed to be rare! And you stumbled upon probably close to 200! Insane! Even though I’m not in the UK, I still appreciate the tips and helpful advice, as I’m sure I can use it here in Colorado as well.
Next year I’m going to make an effort to find some, not true porcini, but close enough that it wasn’t a separate species until 2014, the Boletus rubriceps. Just as good, but you do need to be wary. It has a red cap, so it should be positively identified before cooking and eating to make sure it is the Rocky Mountain Red Bolete, though this is fairly easy, as long as it doesn’t stain, it is a yummy mushroom. There is also a similar mushroom that I need to be wary of, the Aspen Bolete, that can give you an upset stomach. Thankfully, it is in the Leccinum family, so you aren’t just going by the color of the cap.
Hope to be able to experience the fun of foraging soon!
i don't believe they are rare, not in the uk at least but saying that not sure i've identified one myself yet
Appreciate the Colo local. I'm from there. Montana now
Very good information. Too bad though that the image resolution is a bit low with 720p. It's not easy to see the details of some of the mushrooms.
I'm hopefully getting some better kit soon!
A Dream!
Great video. Are you planning on doing another video like this? I’d love to see it in 2023! Cheers guys.
I'm jealous that your chanterelles over there don't get buggy! Ours in the eastern US get chewed up pretty badly when they're not young.
At 14:33 nature told me that where he's standing , is where he usually rests his bycicle 😏
Thank You for sharing your knowledge 😇
No thanks I don't take mind changing drugs !
Nature has been showing me it's wisdom since I were 7 years old .
When I died at 33 and obviously returned , well let's just say I'm far more aware of my surroundings than I used to be !
Thanks Jason. These spammy idiots are really becoming a pain in the A*** on our channel. I've removed their comments so you can remove yours if you want to ..
@@WildFoodUK1 I'm happy with my comment thanks ..
I can't see it offending anyone but if you think it will , I wouldnt be offended if you deleted it ! It was just an observation, No pun intended at all ...
Keep up the good work !
I'm listening in Montana USA. we have a course at university .Maybe when I'm truly retired . Bigstate long distance between towns. We've had forest fires. That's where I'll start. I need an app for cross reference of identity of species of my mushrooms. Shaggy mane ,Chantelle, chicken of the woods, puffballs and the brain one that scares me!
I am wondering if 2022 was a 'bolete year'. It was about four or five years ago we had one, and I was finding hundreds of bay boletes at PuddleTown, Dorset. Never seen as many as that year. They come around every four or five years. I thought it might be the case as I also found a huge patch of porcini, about 40 a couple of weeks ago.
In Germany we also had lots of penny buns and parasols this year. But we had a very bad year for chanterelles.
Great vid as usual. Have to watch it in parts but comments so far,,, I found field blewits on grass near a cops of sycamore btw.
And what about driads saddle for an edible polypore ? .. to be continued
the reason I group the dryads a bit different is the clear stem, they are now in the genus Cerioporus too :)
Ah is that mr Fodi? I think he has given me some tips on msuk before!
yup :)
@@WildFoodUK1 great video, unbelievable luck to find alk that on the same day. In spain today just found wild boar and octopus, but not for eating! Only bracket fungus here yet.
Ash and sycamore partner up with the spring shrooms: Morels
It also saddens me to hear the "no red, no blue" rule. It removes some of the best edibles from the basket: Neoboletus erytropus, suillellus luridus, imleria badia.
Don't forget Elm trees and Morels! Though they're not many Elms left in the UK :P
It's actually very responsible if you ask me, he's teaching novices and better to air on the side of caution and play it safe.
@@korzer I understand. It's just that such basic rules tend to run wild, and you will then meet people who will scold you for being irresponsible if you forage a bluing mushroom.
@@HotelPapa100 yeah this. It’s hard not to feel like there’s a better way than making hard and fast rules even for beginners given all the phobia entangled in foraging
Love watching you but your wrong about amanita pantherina she's the best at curing many thing's along with amanita muscaria and regalia, I work with this beautiful mushroom.
i would love to learn more about pantherina, where did you get your information?
Nice video 🙂 did you find any liberty caps?
I highly doubt they were looking for them
@15:47 what the heck is that noise about? Great vid btw.
I'm so jealous seeing all the great mycological content from UK foragers this year. My area of Essex is still so dry and barren. Unbelievable field of B. edulis.
I'm from Essex too. Wish I could eat something other than shaggy parasols soon!
@@wombatcom Parasol and beefsteak country
@@wombatcom what about epping forest?
@@flyagaric1607 Bit too far for me, I don't have a car either :(
I'm sure its lovely there though
I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend investing in a Rode Wireless Go II to improve your sound quality! For the quality improvment in sound it is a bargain.
Where are you located to find all of this porcini?
I have found your videos very useful too. But I'm stuck on a fungi I found locally in West Cork. If I send you a picture can you identify it for me? Thanks
Penny Bunn's in my country are the most wanted mushrooms... Most expensive
Where would holly & hazel be on the scale for microrisal fungi?
Where can I purchase the book you were referring to in this video, cheers
www.foraging.co.uk :)
dude you should have used finasteride and minoxidil to save your hair atleast 2 years ago. Like it took me 4 months to regrow all my diffuse thinning.
Hi do you still do this foraging group? Id love to join and learn
yes check the site :)
Oh no most of them picked the old ones to take home because they are big in size when really it’s the young porcinis that are the best 😂😫
I'd love to book a course unfortunately your fully booked in my area 😥
sorry, we'll be adding more soon. What area are you in?
Tried a few easily identifiable ones this year chicken of woods, macro, parasol and those er...little pointy ones i shouldn't mention.
Would love to know the distinctive features off russula, boletes and others as i have seen a lot! The "wood mushroom" and similar look very indistinguishable from others of many different types. Hmm russula vs death cap is greatest worry. Very hard to identify some of these other ones ive seen like small flat blue ones. Many i see, books sometimes say not really worth it as 'bland' like some of the bright pink russulas that are edible but seems a shame to disturb if they taste of nothing.
That’s crazy
Great video as always 👍 I kept hearing someone interrupting who obviously thought they knew more. 🤣
we always encourage questions :)
1:14:19 she stood on a porcini
Leccinum Albostipitatum doesn't have a 'dirty, skirty stem'
Aberdeen 🇬🇧
I would have the opportunity to learn edible mushrooms in the forest
If you want to spread spores put the mushroom on a branch .
Bay bolete's are very easy to identify and is one of the most renowned boletes which turn blue. Telling people to avoid blue entirely will mean people will miss out on one of the best edible boletes. Other than that excellent vid.
well said
Yes but they don't turn instantly blue like the dangerous ones afaik
He said this is information for novice forager's that beginners should follow these rules
@@korzer They do turn instantly blue, when damaged.
@@marcchalmers3658 Bay Boletes are novice mushrooms, misinformation isn't helpful
Does anyone have a good use for pineapple weed as an air fresherener/cologne.
I really love the smell. 👍
No, but you've peaked my curiosity. How do you do it?
Maybe try adding the flower buds to witch hazel or rose water, they may infuse.
They also make a really good tea. Like Chamomile, but super fruity 👍
@@jimmyrustler8983 thnx Jimmy. I've still to find a use but the rose water sounds like a great idea. I'll try that.
I'd love to make a tea from them but I've a bad oral allergy to ragweed and I'm guessing these would contain ragweed pollen too unfortunately...
@@xPlantpoTx Try drying them first too, they should infuse much better 👍
@@jimmyrustler8983 I've done it Jimmy, It worked great. Smells so nice, few sprays of davidoff cool water too. The smell is so fresh and clean. The girls won't be able to resist now ahah. Thank you!
I found a beautiful patch of mushrooms in a ground bed of ivy. But they smelled of ‘Chemical/glue’ as I cooked them. So I threw them out....after a little taste. Weird tasting too. Is it dangerous to eat such fungi?
Unless you know EXACTLY what they are, do not eat them.
There's a lot of stuff out there that will shut your organs down in the space of a week.
yes
Please do not do this. You are absolutely risking your life without positive mushroom id. There are many delicious edible mushrooms out there but picking random mushrooms and hoping for the best is absolutely not the way you go about it
@@ninacoutinho9513 The chemical scent was likely stinking dapperling.
I've found and ID'ed them before, they're pretty smelly.
Eating those would not be good.
Well since you can't name them, it means you haven't identified them. In which case the answer is always YES POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS
Why bags? Surely you should use whicker baskets which allow spore dispersal whilst you forage. They were a requirement in some parts of Europe.
Please, no plastic bags.
Great series though; informative and no rapid celebrity clips per sentence which is tiresome. Your series harks back to the earlier BBC reality documentaries.
Most refreshing.
What the hell is that quality 💀
Can't hear you;
Cloth ears
Is it legal to charge people for nature? Within Section 4 (Property) of the Theft Act (1968) (England and Wales only, though similar in Scotland) you will find the following:
The courses take place on private land not woodland trust sites etc so it’s okay to charge
@@louisee_9767 no no it is not ok to charge.
Thanks for sharing the wisdom :)
JUST LIKE YOUR POCHINI FIELD...I ONCE SAW BACK IN THE 80s UK A WHITE OUT OF FIELD MUSHROOMS. HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS AROUND 300 SQ YARDS OF FIELDS..I COULD NOT SEE THE GRASS FOR CAPS, EVEN WHEN I STOPPED MY MOTOR AND WALKED INTO THE FIELD...THE TWO FIELDS LOOKED LIKE A WINTERS SNOWFALL..."WOW"!...A STAND OUT MEMMORY IN MY LIFE..NOW 70...
Heather- take a deep breath, let the grown up speak, count to ten, let nature take it's course....
