  • In this video we will look at poisonous mushrooms that could be growing in your lawn and posing a threat to your family or pets. Aaron Hilliard of the Kitsap Peninsula Mycological Society tells us about the most common lawn mushrooms that could potentially be poisonous or even deadly. With clear descriptions and photographs and videos, we hope that this brings you a feeling of safety and well-being when curious about your toddler being around those strange toadstools in the yard.
    This video is not intended to create mycophobia or to make people afraid of mushrooms, but to bring awareness to a potentially dangerous situation.
    Dangerous mushrooms can come in all shapes and sizes, but the most dangerous of them seem to grow in urban areas right where kids and dogs might be playing.
    This UA-cam channel you mainly focuses on the benefits and joy of mushrooming, But there is a darker side to them, and awareness brings safety.
    If your child does eat a poisonous mushroom it is important that you call as soon after the ingestion as possible. Refrigerate the uneaten portion of the mushroom in a bag clearly marked "poison" in case later identification will be needed. If delayed symptoms do occur (6-24 hours after ingestion), your child will have to be seen in the emergency department.

    We will not accept any responsibility for negligence or accidental ingestion of poisonous mushrooms or plants. These videos are not intended to be a definitive field guide, but rather a starting point to become familiar with habitat, Everyone is encouraged to do their own studies, acquire literature or internet resources to safely and confidently identify wild foods before they eat them. When eating a new wild mushroom, it is advised to start with only a small amount, and make sure that it is fresh and that it is cooked thoroughly. Some mushrooms do not agree with certain individuals, and this is typically discovered on a case-by-case basis. Even the most edible of mushrooms contain compounds that can be tough for the human digestive tract to handle. Some “edible” species have small amounts of certain toxins that will easily break down with cooking. Fungi contains a molecule known as chitin that is the same thing that makes the exoskeleton of shellfish so hard, and cannot be broken down by the human digestive system, so it is another good reason to thoroughly cook mushrooms. All the ideas expressed in the comments should be taken with a large grain of salt. I don’t think there is any other field of study or science that has more misinformation being shared so freely and boldly. Mushroom Wonderland and Aaron himself have no opinion and neither encourage nor discourage the use of mushrooms containing mind-altering compounds. These mushrooms contain powerful chemicals and should be treated with a high level of responsibility. Any video topics on the habitat, natural distribution, and morphological features of psychoactive mushrooms portrayed on this channel are purely for scientific and educational purposes.

    I compost or mow down every mushroom I find in my yard that I cant immediately identify as edible because I have two old slightly nutty dogs who will eat just about anything they run across from deer poo to dandelions and mushrooms. You would think I starved them instead of spending hours and big bucks making them organic homemade dog food.

  • @gabet7333

    Or If you like how flying agaric mushrooms look you could also set a mushroom down next to a pine tree or leaf tree like mapple where the tree drops its leafs or needles and let it grow new mushrooms where you set them. If your lucky they will come back next year and you won't of had to of dune much. It's a eye pleasing mushroom to find like a flower. It's easy to teach people not to eat them.

    The mycorrhizal mushrooms mentioned are extremely unlikely to be on a lawn, unless there is also a large associated tree in that lawn.

    • @mushroomwonderland1
      @mushroomwonderland1  6 місяців тому

      That's definitely true. I did mention that. The three places I know in the greater Puget sound area, in Tacoma Washington, on the UW campus, and in Burlington the death caps are all growing on lawns, with trees nearby.

    • @fabianforster5980
      @fabianforster5980 6 місяців тому

      I'v found death caps and muscaria as far as 10m from the next tree. This could very well be on a neighboring lawn. However, the tree actually doesn't need to be tall. A typical mistake by beginner foragers here around Berlin, Germany is to just look for tall trees in lush vegetation. I'v found many porcini, deceivers and amanitas associated with trees not taller than my hip in quite barren settings. The crucial factor is how much nitrogen is available in the soil or how dry the ground is. The fungus provides easier access to nitrogen and water, which is what the tree gets from the symbiosis. Most lawns are probably well watered and fertilized which should "prevent" many mycorrhizal mushrooms imo.

But if you send me a picture I'll do my best! Please be sure to include pictures of the underside and the stem.

    Why do they grow in a ring? Spore ring? But why only the edges of the ring and not inside the ring? Makes me think ringworm.
    Do all amanita look like the fly agaric? I ate some today…
    I bought some soil at Ho Depot and it is full of LBM, so every day I am picking them from amongst my seedlings. Haven’t tried eating any yet, they smell flavorless of all mushrooms I’ve smelled. Also, they have almost no body or substance (meat) to them, so not much for eating. I’ll stick to the big fat meaty mushies.
    @8:05 there’s one funeral bell (leftest) showing it’s gills, then two facing up (right), the one that is lower on screen and not the right most, has a very clear skull (reflection of light from above?) at the center of it’s cap. Pretty appropriate for those Funeral Bells.
    You should never eat any mushrooms from a lawn, period. They are sprayed and grown in stuff that you should never consume. Don’t become a glyphosate, or some other (like fubells or deadcaps), statistic.

    You shouldn't be trying to eradicate a mushroom just because it's known ad poisonous or toxic. All that means is medical use or benefits are unknown at this time. All poisonous or toxic plants are the same
