I have heard, years ago, that foraging wild mushrooms is risky because poisonous hybrids are around that are virtually identical to the edible species. How risky is it now?
Your comment made me laugh. My daughter (6) and I were foraging today as I am handing down the skill taught by my maternal ancestors for hundreds of years. We have tech however and we found a mushroom that popped up not as toxic but fatal. My daughter looked at me and asks, "Do we know who ate it first, so we could know that it's fatal?" Then I read your comment a few hours later... 🤣
I always have been scared of picking wild mushrooms, but I'm hungry after watching this video... I just started to learn how to distinguish edible weeds from lawn, and I guess it wouldn't be hurting if I learn about wild mushroom too; thanks for the video~
dryad saddle....if your knife is squeaking when your harvesting or cutting along the edge its too old!!! just a lil old timers wisdom for ya!!! your knife should cut through as smooth as if it were butter!!! I actually cut myself one time on a really fresh young dryad because my knife was really sharp an it cut the mushroom really fast an I wrecked into my finger!! so be careful when using a knife
bill hafford if you can get a bunch of babys dyrad saddles that’s the best way to go sometimes in the right conditions they can grow like cap mushrooms and these are perfect for cooking when younge
Probably said before but get a quality field guide. I really like Peterson's. Talks a lot about spore prints, etc. Ultimately just seeking the information is key
About three years ago, I took a school break to get into growing and foraging food, mushrooms were on my list! I've read and watched quite a bit, and I don't think I'm quite ready yet, to forage, but every little be helps!
Hurray lol I found a load of mushrooms today I just felt they was edible but needed confirmation, watched about ten videos on here no joy then onto this video and it's pheasants back and edible, also learned that bigger ones tuff in centre so thankyou

I have 250 acres of woods behind my house and I go for walks everyday. I also find many different types of mushrooms that are edible. I found close tov eight pounds of oyster mushrooms today. I have chicken of the woods growing in my back yard. I find or have found every edible mushroom that is shown in the video...
Hi! I just came across this video and your channel. I love it! It's so nice to have a video guide! 😍🍄 I became a wild mushroom fanatic since my husband introduced me to their wild mushroom hunting traditions in the Czech Republic! The coral shaped mushroom you mentioned we call "Kotrč" and is delicous in soup! I have only found ONE edible bolete (Penny Bun) mushroom here in Vancouver 🇨🇦 on my hikes! I'm sure there are places I have to find in British Columbia. 😊
Thank you! The penny bun is just a beginning and I'm sure you'll encounter a lot more once the mushroom elf finds itself a spot in your mindset 😃then you just can't stop seeing..
This is so helpful for me cs i live in a tropical forest with different types of mushroom but dont know what's edible and what's not. Im learning more about mushroom
This guy is an ass. Learn from others. Just because he can memorize doesn't mean that he has a clue. Harvest by cutting at the soil line. Learn from true keepers of the earth
Thank you. I became interested in shrooms this spring and have found most of the ones you identified here. Wondering if umbrella polypore is a maitake variety? Found my fifth cluster of hen-of-the-woods this month . I have eaten so much I now smell like a shroom.
No though both are polypores. umbrella appears only in spring and to me it's better than maitake. this said, i haven't seen any maitake this year thus far..
hola to anyone who knows false morels well. please take a moment to see for yourself here ua-cam.com/video/sld9FtmzdGM/v-deo.html before telling me the second mushroom here was an imposter.
It looked a little bit bad but it was a real morel. You can usually find more around the area. You definitely picked it correctly. They are edible if cooked
It's all right jamada, mushrooms come from underground mycelium. The mycelial bed actually likes to be scratched and abused every once in a while; it stimulates new growth. A lot of mushroom farmers will rake their beds if they notice a lull in mushroom production, usually does the trick. Besides, when animals trudge through or heavy rains wash away mushrooms and damage the mycelium, all works out in the end. If you're worried about mycelial loss, spread some spores around! You can use baskets or mesh bags to let spores drift around as you hike, you can use hats and clothing for spore prints so when you wear them, spores can disperse with the wind. Just be careful not to breath in too many at once, it's not good for you.
Love your channel. I've been trying to find some chicken of the woods but there is a mushroom maniac in my town that goes around foraging before I can get to it.
Great video. Looking forward to mushroom season in N.H. Doing it for a few years now and have enjoyed about 8 different wild mushrooms here. Nine if I added Chaga tea.
Best tip for beginners: always start by hunting only boletus species. If their sponge is white and their meat doesn't turn blue they're good. There are also blue turning good shrooms but if you're a beginner, just start with those
If you ever wanted to try growing wine cap yourself, take one of the old ones and throw it in a blender. use the blended mushroom to inoculate some sterile media. could probably be done with the other ones as well, but wine cap is the only one i know is widely grown like that of the ones you found.
I saw a Dried saddle that was aboutv3 ft by 4 ft in northbcarolina. I stopped to walk my dognby the river and saw it at the footnod of a tree near a river. I have a pjc and i wosh i could attach it hear. Thank you for making these videos
If you are a beginner, always forage with an experienced forager and one who is experienced in identifying the species. Also please do not eat anything that you’re unsure about. You can get extremely sick and in worst case they can be fatal. Also, please use your paring knife when plucking. Cut, not pluck, so they can grow back.
@@LetsGoSomewhere87 many compares it to picking an apple from the branch. I do think pulling fruit bodies is totally fine unless you do it too brutally, which's hardly necessary when it comes to mushrooms.
@@OldManoftheWoods Yeah, you wont hurt the mushroom culture (mycellium) however if it's a patch you intend to return to to harvest more mushrooms in the same season, (the following week for example) then you'll do better if you cut the mushrooms' stems. Often, I return to mushroom stumps that I've cut to find new fruiting bodies sprouting around the old stump I've left behind. I don't believe this can happen when you rip a hole in the mycelium by plucking. Keep in mind the mycelium serves to feed all the fruiting bodies in the flush, so when you start ripping holes in it, it's like demolishing sections of roads in a city. The city can survive it, but it certainly hinders its productivity. That being said, if you're picking wild mushrooms to market, some varieties lose their value if the stems are cut. BC pine mushroom (Tricholoma magnivelare) is one, for example. But these push up from so deep in the ground, you often just find the top of the cap with the stem completely buried, which forces you to pop them up from underneath with a screwdriver anyhow.
The very important thing to keep in mind is the area you live in the world; different places have different mushrooms 🍄. So many things I've read have said if it has gills, it's probably poisonous, especially if it's white and grows on the lawn. Hunting for edible woods mushrooms is scary if you aren't 100% sure it's safe, which is more difficult than you think when searching for identical photos online
idk about that there are lots of types of gills first off and second off alot of them are edible my rule would be there are no short cuts there is no hard and fast rules. learn the mushrooms in your area is good advice because there are so many
Upper Northwestern corner of Washington state. I know ive stumbled across bunches of them over the years but never really knew the significance until recently. I find lots of boletes now, but ill be damned if i can find another king. Hoping this year will be the one! If i cant find any...shhhh...ill buy a couple if i have to haha. Ive heard they are really good eating? I found perfect lobsters and some beautiful chantrels this morning hiking around behind the place though.
I used to hunt for Morels back in Missouri after springtime rains. Fried Morels are so delicious. Out in the sonoran desert, the only mushroom I've ever seen growing was a chicken of the forest. I don't know how, but it was growing. Also back in Missouri, we threw mushrooms under cars because they exploded after being run over. I think they were puffballs, can you tell me what they also could have been? They very well could have poofed green.
My dad and I like to go foraging together. A couple days ago we found some black trumpets, something called an old man of the woods, and lots of little brown ones
I think that the morel in your video was identified properly but it grew the exact way that the false morel does. I’ve only ever encountered a few false morels. Usually early spring.
Hello, can I find mushrooms in the Netherlands in november? My friend will visit me in three weeks and I want to try this together. I’m afraid to go to the forest alone.

I think that the morel in your video was identified properly but it grew the exact way that the false morel does. I’ve only ever encountered a few false morels. Usually early spring.
I would be equally excited to see a false morel as I am yet to encounter one.
They look different enough to notice.
@Subtle Nature If you cut them open then the morel will be hollow and a false one will not, so it's not too hard to tell the difference.
very informative

Hello, can I find mushrooms in the Netherlands in november? My friend will visit me in three weeks and I want to try this together. I’m afraid to go to the forest alone.
Very informative, thank you
Wow nice finds! I have mica cap always sprouting in my backyard, haven't tried them yet.
