If you want to get clusters of mushrooms out of trees, carry a good length of fish line (probably atleast 60 feet) attached to a weight (I like a large washer) and then just throw the line over the mushrooms and pull them down. I have done it quite a bit and it works great.
4 days of oyster mushroom bounty-miso langostine oyster mushroom soup. Oyster mushroom chowder, Sauteed oyster mushrooms w/ fresh caught trout. Nature is good in the PNW
The best video I’ve seen in long time. Good talk and pictures. Was not long enough. It was a good movie and very informative. Good job. I’m telling everyone one to subscribe
I use a fruit picker for the high up mushrooms. It can be hard to knock them off but I haven't tried taping a knife on there, just used the claw part to hook and pull.
oh wow, thanks for the info...I found a patch of white oyster mushrooms on an old dead birch tree laying in the forest on our property here in North Idaho....wasn't sure what they were. Some for lunch and some to try and cultivate closer to home❤
Thank you very much for what you do. I know where some VERY interesting specimen down south this time of year... they are very difficult for newbies to identify down south, a single 2 mile walk could yield 20 different specimen, so thank you bro, I've learned everything I know from you, you're my golden teacher 🥲😀
BTW @09:15 I found some like that but they have a purple/black print, im having difficulty identifying it, from what I gather its either deadly or psychoactive. Its brown top, brown stem, brown/purple gills, black purple spore print, and about 3-6cm wide cap, and about 5 cm tall
Nice shirt I have one just like it and yeah I've never seen called flower in the same place twice but I do go to my morel places pretty much every year
Living in Norway, I mostly prefer the early season chanterelles. Like you mention, they have a nicer texture then. Later on they often grow too large and soft to be really tasty, at least to me.
the mycelium has to compete with other organisms like trichoderma and bacteria that prevent mycelium from fruiting or there's only a small spot where the substrate was the right kind for the specific mushroom fruiting. it could also just depend on weather conditions and mycelium growth rate, I've seen spots where one week there were only a couple mushrooms and another week there was triple the amount
@@mrbosky710 about the Trichoderma and bacteria, Cyanobacteria, mushrooms use oxygen in the air process I believe I believe. Well, they have a great strategy. Thank you.
i'm gonna be a panther cap in the seattle summer solstice parade :) i know a great place for them in NE seattle but haven't found any there since last year. the city planted new trees and i think they disturbed the mycelium
I have noticed that often, you will get a big fruiting of oyster mushrooms after a tree falls down because the mycelium has been feeding on the wood for a long time, and when the tree falls, the fruiting happens because the organism needs to move to another food source to survive.
seems to me from the oyster flushes i've found that they help pop the bark off newly dead trees. i usually don't find more when the log is totally nude of bark but i will find them in spring and fall until the tree is totally debarked
@@mushroomwonderland1 I meant to say “when a dead tree falls”! I left out an important detail. Lol. I think the tree falls because the oyster mushroom has already done most of its eating.
Have a question about the spring king bollete if it is a dryer spring does that affect the fruiting of them as greatly as it does per say Morrell? Thank you for your videos and information shout out from southern oregon
Fact is that mushrooms need a lot of moisture to grow. The dry spring is no doubt having some kind of an effect but I see they're still popping up. Microclimates.
Unfortunately there’s a prediction for a super elnino that gunna hit in the fall which will bring even dryer and wormer air to the pnw… I’m praying that this isn’t the case but it’s not lookin to well for us mushroom lovers
@@movingnaturefilmsI listen to music/podcasts while foraging. If you wanna forage without music... Go out and do it yourself. No need to be rude, especially when youre getting this content for FREE.

That's a great tip! Thank you, friend... Gonna go back to my local swamp and get the oysters I saw yesterday

I'm hoping you do a follow up on the oyster cultures!
So much rain here in CO. Telluride should be amazing right now.
Loved the Sierran treefrog !!

Excelente PNW mushroom video. Thank you.
im eating wild oyster mushrooms from vancouver island right now, lol, my favorite i think, love this channel
*Mycopete.*
Totally agree, mushrooms like the side of the trail, some of my best finds were spotted from the main trail
Can’t wait!!!
We are near Joyce and found a bunch of oysters too! woohoo! love your vids
Great videos, thanks for sharing.
Love the shirt Walmart didn't have my size
Another great video!
yesterda I picked some fairly large painted suillus that were fused together at the top, absolutely stunning mushroom.

May 20th I was at about 2100 ft in Giffordpincho found panther and several others.

Hi Aaron I have the same shirt 😂 -Dani, WMS VP
With millions of sports, why are there not more mushrooms? Thanks Aaron and Gunner
the mycelium has to compete with other organisms like trichoderma and bacteria that prevent mycelium from fruiting or there's only a small spot where the substrate was the right kind for the specific mushroom fruiting. it could also just depend on weather conditions and mycelium growth rate, I've seen spots where one week there were only a couple mushrooms and another week there was triple the amount
They take very specific conditions to start growing, so it takes millions of spores to find just the right place, conditions, and moisture to grow!
@@mushroomwonderland1 thanks

I don't believe theyre parasitic. The mycelium is vigorous and takes hold once the tree dies. 🍄

What trail is this? It's beautiful out there
I think I have some magic but I'm still learning.. lots of edibles tho.. next season I'll be more educated this year seems abundant
What do Oyster mushrooms taste like? I'd love to know

Aaron that looks like wicks lake or over by the golf course by lake flora
Same general area! Colture Creek Park.🍄🤘
Hey mushbroo I found a fungi that I can't I'd maybe you could help me out?

So what grows in the south east
Pimp that forest
Hi .is it possible for you to sell we 2lb of dry turkey tail .I am in New York
I don't usually collect them. Lots of opportunities online to buy them though.
You can get your shroom products from Charlesmyco he's a mycologist based in california.
@charlesmyco
The "little lawn mushroom" comment turned me off.
Really? 🤷 Hmm..sorry bout it.
@@mushroomwonderland1 Why should you be sorry? Some people are just too bloody sensitive.
This would be more enjoyable without the music. It disrupts all the pretty nature sounds!
All a matter of opinion!
@@mushroomwonderland1 Do you go listen to music while foraging? No.

There was no spring on the east side, it was a long winter & went straight into summer! Zero morels!
yeah really hasn't been much in seattle either since this time last year
