- Why can't all mushrooms be cultivated? Why are some at the grocery store, and some need to be wild harvested?
Mushrooms can be broken down into three broad catagories:
1. Saprophytic Fungi
2. Parasitic Fungi
3. Mycorrhizal Fungi
Saprophytic fungi are mushrooms that grow on dead or dying matter. They thrive on substrates like hardwood, straw, or mulch. These natural conditions are easy to copy, which is why saprophytic mushrooms like Shiitake, Oysters and Enoki are easily cultivated.
Parasitic fungi are mushrooms like Cordyceps (which grow on bugs) and Honey Mushrooms (which attack living trees). These are harder to cultivate then saprophytic fungi.
The third group, mycorrhizal fungi, are mushrooms that form symbiotic relationships with other plants. These relationships can be complesx, and hard to duplicate artificially.
Unfortunately, some of the tastiest mushrooms in the world are mycorrhizal, and thus, very difficult if not impossible to cultivate.
In this video:
1. Chanterelle
2. Porcini
3. Aspen Bolete
4. Lobster Mushroom
5. Hedgehog Mushroom
6. Truffle
7. Morel

This guy: believe it or not, contrary to it's name, lobster mushrooms is actually not a...
Me: lobster
This guy: mushroom
I use to collect Chantarelles and Porcini, these non-cultivating species are my favourite, but there are a lot more of edible species that I find in the wild. To be "wild exclusive" is part of the mystery of mushrooms.
If someone find out how to cultivate chantareles he gets rich.
I would like to know if something is moving on in research for chanterellus cultivation. Do you know?
Amanita Caesarea is by far the most delicious mushroom I've ever tasted. Porcinis don't even come close to that mushroom :3
Again, amazing video! Thanks for the information.
Dude, I love all of your videos. Thanks for sharing
I think it would be super interesting to do a vid on different types of poisonous or inedible mushrooms and their uses
OHHH I love this-
@@FreshCapMushrooms kinda late, but talking about harmful shrooms is especially important, since some mushrooms are VERY similar to edible ones, especially when young and small. In my region people praise what you call Boletus edulis, I think, which we call the king of shrooms (at least for our region :P), but there's its cousin which we call "Satan". :D There are two kinds apparently, Tylopilus felleus and Boletus satanas, but they get similar naming treatment, because we're lazy and besides, both are inedible anyway. They can look exactly like the edible one, but if you smoodge the bottom of the cap, it turns pinkish instead of green-yellow. And one is quite poisonous. Very much so.
Since I am developing a polyculture orchard, the prospect of mycorrhizal fungi that produce edible fruiting bodies is quite intriguing. I have heard (I want to say from Peter McCoy, but I'm not %100 sure) of a possibility that some fungi that we typically think of as saprotrophic may also be mycorrhizal, as well .. a couple possibles include nameko with ericoids, and shitake with orchideae. IS it possible? I dunno .. but I'm planning on putting down some substrate and spawn on the north side of my blueberries, and we'll see if it goes well!
what an awesome video!
Thank you. I need to watch this video many times.
Although not considered a choice edible Chaga is still a mushroom with an extensive list of medicinal benefits. Chaga tea is my favourite kind of tea so I consider it to be a choice drinkable lol
LOVE Chaga
You win the most interesting choice of beverage award
I've grown Morals. On accident at first. Now Everytime go hunting morals. Here's how I did it. I went hunting for them and found about 25lbs I soaked about ten pounds the mushrooms in fresh tap water in a 5 gallon bucket. Then I changed the water and soaked them in salt water. To get rid of any bugs. I took the water outside and dumped the water out next to the house on some non dyed wood chips haft aday in shaded the other in sunlight. I did the same thing with the salt water with a little more sunlight. The next year I had Morals growing in my yard both spots. I trying it again and sure as shit it did it again. The only problem was only got a handful per spot. Not to many but maybe a couple pounds. Theres something with water and spors and not so much with chopped up wood. Made them grow either way though. Now every year I dump out both salt and rinse water outside my house everytime I go hunting.Give it a try. You don't need the wood either just dump the rinsed water outside on the ground by some bushes with some shading like fence, house, Garage and make sure no traffic at all just leave alone to next year. You might get some if early enough. Try it next spring. It's great to see them in your yard.
Just a warning, putting salt in the soil is bad for plants. Too much salt pulls water out from the roots and kills the plant.
Did you try it without salt?
I heard of someone putting chanterells in a water slurry, leaving it a few days, then dump it on the län under some bushes or trees and getting mushrooms in their garden.
Sorry didn't read all that. Just wanted to say, trying to also grow my morals.....
Black trumpets are absolutely delicious. Rich.... almost chocolatey
Great info! You have new subscriber.......... 👍👍🍄🍄🍄🍄👍👍
Thanks so much for all your videos! they have been super helpful. I am trying to find out if it's possible to grow Chicken of the Woods in a bucket or such. Preferably not in an actual log. Is this possible?
Not knowledgeable on mushroom lore, but we put symbiotic fungus spores in our compost when we repot our veg. This channel has got me wanting to grow mushrooms too now though
Please make a video about best practices to second flush and at what flush we should terminate
great information love these videos
Fir saplings with Chanterels are available for sale in Sweden. It is the same method as with truffels.
Something to try : Use either chanterel scraps or scoop out some of the earth beneath the mushroom and transplant it to a similar tree. Avoid direct sunlight initially or water often. I would use molasses diluted in water as fertilizer repeatedly.
Howd you transplant it? And do you menan you'd then ad mollases at that spot?
Use a small space or your hands.
Chanterelles are my top 1 favourite mushrooms since childhood, our forests in Latvia have tons of it, but now living in the UK, I eat them once-twice a year as it is really difficult to find them in the shop.. was putting my hopes up in regards of growing them at hope, and now I am kinda devastated 😭😭😭
Thank you for the video - the info about the differences of mushroom groups was very interesting 🙏
Blewits!!! You can't beat a mushroom that tastes like steak and mushroom. Unfortunately they only have about a 2 week per year window..
Heaseba my mouth is watering 😂
Where do you live? They go all the way from September to November where I live, although honey mushrooms, porcini, and aborted entolomas last about a week and a half here.
@@tristanhallett4793 I was going on what I had heard from the experts. Also I only really started foraging for mushrooms here, in maybe September and I haven't found many at all since Nov. My conifer forest has simply quit producing even the tiny shrooms
...and if you miss that 2 week window you'll say: "Damn, I blewit!"
Ah, yes, wood blewits. I grew up in a small town in central Europe. Our house was next to a huge field+forest. Every spring I would go out and gather blewits. My dear grandma would make it with onions, sometimes with eggs.
Come a times on occasion also found marasmius oreades, fairy rings which are also delicious. Funny, how as kids I never even thought about mushrooms being poisonous except for agaric lol.
How sad is it that America is a literal mushroom desert where 370 million people only know 3 kinds of mushrooms lol.
Sweet times.
Matsutake is a good one some say the best but I've never tried them. I wish there was a map showing what parts of the USA certain mushrooms grow.
Brian Williams that’s a cool idea. Like the butterfly map of America ❤️
There is
@@raheem8086 A link to the map would be awesome.
@@brian48williams ive never used it but from my research ive heard it it talked about by crimepays botany doesn't i think it was in his video where he found shrooms growing in a woodchip 🛌
Always interesting content
I know I hear some say that there are commercially harvested morels... namely in the orient.
However, I travel to China and Japan alot and am pretty familiar with the local mushroom growing regions and have yet to hear or specifically see any farmed morels.
You are awesome...👏👍
Any thoughts on what you can grow in your attic/ loft ?
Also any chance of your favourite mushroom recipes?
Ya, some mushrooms hard to grow in Indonesia, and u can find it only in the jungle 😁 I'm totally love your video
For mycorrhizal fungi, could you not provide the necessary carbohydrates to the mycelium via a drip of some kind? I'm not sure how it all works.

So just out of curiosity is it possible in any capacity to grow Hypomyces lactiflorum if per say one had the host mushroom growing and then introduced the spores of Hypomyces lactiflorum so that it overtakes the initial harvest?
Спасибо за ролик. Ценная инфа и без воды. Лайк и подписка.
Was that russula or urushula mushrooms attacked by the lobster mushroom? Couldn’t find the genus...
Do you know anything about atempts with parasitic mushrooms, preparing spores and pooring on trees or making small nudges in trees or roots to make them grow?
Could you please make a video about the new methods of just cultivating morals. Go hu ting every year with mixed results. Would love to inoculate my woods every year after.
Plz do a video on black piopinno cultivation
Wow, great video! I've been interested in mushrooms lately since I remembered an edible mushroom from Mexico but there isn't much information on it unfortunately. I've been thinking of finding it in the wild and studying it the next time I go since no one knows much about it. It's called Ocotlapas and the town I'm from is in the northwest part of the state of Hidalgo called Carpinteros. I've tried to look for its latin name and/or English name but can't find it. Thank you for the video!
Are you referring to huitlacoche?
Would it be possible to cultivate Giant Puffball mushroom? When I was a kid my dad and I found this mushroom and I have vivid memories of the joy of finding it and eating it :)
what would happen if i take a mycorrhizal mushroom like amanita muscaria or like the lactarius indigo and plant them next to a pine tree
Cantharellus cibarius are my very favorite cooking mushroom. They are so darn delicious. Pains me to see they aren't really cultivatable
Quand j'étais jeune j'élevai des bactéries symbiotiques des crucifères et l'assimilation de l'azote était importante. Nous avion procédé à des essais concernant les champignons symbiotiques. les mycéliums étaient peu structurés car les cultures se faisaient sur solution de mélasse de betteraves. seules étaient pris en compte l'assimilation de l'azote. Dans ces conditions évidement aucun champignon ne vit le jour ce n'était pas le but!
What about Coprophilous mushrooms isn’t that a separate group.
I Have a serious question about all these recommendations/growing in plastic of all sorts. Not to be a mushroom buzz kill, but has there been a study to determine if micro plastics are being absorbed by the growth of fruiting mushrooms???? BYW... Excellent informative vids. :)
Also thought about that, Id go with Wood or glass containers or use plastic made from plants
Valid question. I am struggling with the prospect of having a mushroom farm because that is the main, affordable method;: fruiting from bagged substrate. I will not be able to reuse the bags and will have to clean them thoroughly to recycle, if that’s even possible. The issue is cleaning and sterilizing the containers whether wood or glass is difficult and or expensive. I do not want to use plastic at all and hope someone comes up with a completely biodegradable material that will hold the heavy substrate.
re-use substrate. is it possible if nutritional needs for growing mushrooms are added.. Do a video on this topic. pleaseeeeeeeeee.
Chicken mushroom, Laetiporus sulphureus , one of my favorites
my favorite mushroom is P stipticus(a type of glowing mushroom)
What is that sculpture in the background?!
my absolute fav is field blewits ,
If we managed to figure out the connections between mycorrhizal fungi with organisms around it. Is it possible to culture it in a controlled environment like a forest biosphere? And for the parasitic fungi, is it possible to mix insect (or any organism that it parasitize) farming/rearing with mushroom farming?
Probably
Has anyone tried to transplant chanterelles? I found a patch and am going to try dig up a large area and move them and try to maintain proper conditions.
Pls post some updates
Is it possible to grow hoof fungus????
You are probably the only person I know who can grow Cordyceps sinensis. more expensive than Truffle .
Sixpack Young he grow militaris
I got your mushroom coffee add while watching this video XD
I would like to grow lobster mushroom , so can you upload a video about lobster mushroom cultivation?
Here in Spain we have lactarius deliciosus wich are really delicious and besutiful.
Hey, Tony. I noticed in some of your past vids you've got a ring on your pinky. Are you an engineer?
Good eye!! Yes mechanical engineering 👍
What about Wine Cap Mushrooms ? !
What about candy caps?
Halo l have mushrooms in my garden l can’t find the name it’s with and like hard Ston it’s come out sometimes one piece or few places can you please let me know watt mushrooms is that last year it was a lot this year l so one that’s a lot
We ate parasitic mushrooms example the huitlacoche that grows on maize
Can we cultivate Matsutake Mushrooms in a forest by ourselves ?
Hi frn
I am from India.
What do you think about "termitomyces heimii" or other termitomyces mushroom?
.
I think it is One of the top delicious mushroom in the World.
.
How we will grow this mushroom.. any idea?
due to its nature to form symbiotic relationship with termite, this fungus cannot be cultivated and grow commercially
@@ownmicelio
👍✔
.
.but
If i want to grow non commercilly? Thn?
@@NainukKokborokvideo there actually is a termitomyces mushroom that is cultivated, i don't know the exact species, but I have seen it with my own eyes and it is amazing. If you are interested, check out my instagram (instagram.com/freshcaptony) I did a quick 60 s video on it from a farm I visited
0:17 what is this mushroom?
man i love mushrooms
I actually managed to grow few porcinis in a mini pine tree forest near my house
How did you go about it?
Do you grow porcini?
Lorna Gornik you cant
2:00 I've had them and their yummy!
"It's more difficult to cultivate and takes few years to fruit" is a quite bad argument that something can't be grown. It's kinda like saying apples aren't grown.
Plus one extra mushroom (well probably there are more but one from me) - Macrolepiota procera mushroom apperently can be grown easily (according to Wikipedia at least) though I guess it's not very economic since it's very common and easy to spot mushroom while demand for it isn't really high.

I thought he was gonna say it wasn't actually a lobster
Would it be possible to cultivate parasol mushroom
probably, but I haven't heard of it
@@FreshCapMushrooms thanks I'm trying to grow them on straw
@@peteoselka5285 good luck! Sounds like a fun project
Matsuke?
What about cubensis mushrooms?
Thiago Sierra saprophytic. You can grow em on coconut husk
The Huitlacoche, is a parasitic mushroom that grows on maize...
what the heck 😂 You're just going to throw in this footage of an adorable hedgehog with mushrooms stuck all over it and not say anything like that was a normal thing for us to witness??
EXACTLY THIS!
😂 probably some random thing some mycological and animal sanctuary person did for laughs one day and put out there...!
pro trick: watch movies at Flixzone. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies recently.
@Kane Karter Yea, I have been watching on Flixzone} for years myself :)
Liberty caps can’t be grew inside
Just found mushrooms growing in my Guinea pigs cage, some advice is get some Guinea pig poop! Great fertilizer 😭
2:01 Shauntrails
If they grow with trees, couldn't you just plant a forest off those trees? And make sure they're exposed to the spores of the mushrooms you want. Sure it would require more land, but financially the mushrooms are expensive, so surely it's worth it.
Im thinking this too. Might try it
It is possible but it takes a large amount of time
You did not mention the King of Mushrooms, The Chicken of the Woods
I have failed miserably at my three attempts to grow morels… But I’m still gonna keep trying
You need to make a slurry

No talk of amanita muscaria :/
I'm actually making a video on amanita muscaria and cultivation. I should be uploading in the next day or two...
I thought it was said fungi mot funĝi

Truffles hehe , interesting , psilocybe are sold
Who's know how to grow boletus edulis mushrooms 🤔🤔🤔🍄🍄🍄
"OTHER plants"??
termitocytes!bruh u cant miss ths
I found a Mushroom when were on camping Welp i saw a full of cow poops and on some of the cow poops i saw a Blue Mushroom UnU
Hard to grow it doesn't mean impossible.
*casually slams aspen boletes*
The heck 😂? They're incredibly delicious, just like orange birch boletes, especially when you dry them first
Muahrooms have yet to be identified
Even damn scientists cant figure out what your average autumn mushroom is.
The mushrooms are the ultimate beign, superior than everything.
Why do they pull the entire mushroom off the ground? You are supposed to cut it above the root so that it continues growing.
I do not like music over voice
He calls it FUN JAI. I’ve been calling it FU NGUY all my life. Is there a correct way to fungi ? xD
Omfg Tony you make me blush like senior year girl working with a nice looking postdoc. No homo.
