A mushroom expert friend of mine took me out on my prairie in Nebraska and we found three edibles, and others she wasn't confident we could identify without spore prints. What I learned from two hikes with my friend is that a video such as this, with all the glorious photos, is absolutely NOT enough education about edible vs. poisonous mushrooms. So, to the newbies, a word of caution, there is a LOT to learn about mushrooms before you start trying to match up pictures to what you see in nature, harvest and eat. Get a good book first, study, learn, find an expert to teach you. Go slow, and always err on the side of caution.
Very good advice. I would add. If you are picking in a group , do not allow anyone to put anything in your container unless you look at it carefully. And do not consume a mushroom that your "teacher "will not eat even when they say it is good.
I just started studying mycology a few months ago! I wouldn’t dare eat anything until I have at least a year of studying under my belt! I’m not afraid of getting sick I just don’t want to see any dragons!
This was one of the best videos on common edible and poisonous mushrooms I’ve seen on the net. Great content and educational info! Well done. New subscriber just for that alone! 👍
From time to time, wild Portobello mushrooms pop up around our conifer trees. They are quite easy to identify and are a tasty addition to most any dish.
You're awesome man. I found some mushrooms on a dead log and normally I can just Google something and find out what it is relatively easily, but I was struggling with these. Found some elm oysters and your video helped me id them.
To start with the toxic Jack-o-lanterns look much like the deliciously edible Chanterelles, but... (1)The Jack-o-lanterns grow in big tight colonies, while the Chanterelles grow singly or at the most in groups of usually no more than 4 or 5. (2)Jack-o-lanterns have delicate gills which descend down the stem, while Chanterelles have thicker, tougher ridges which descend down the stem. (3)Jack-o-lanterns glow in the dark and have a little dome in the middle of the cap, while Chanterelles do not. (4)Jack-o-lanterns' inner flesh is orange, while Chanterelles' inner flesh is white.
Excellent video! Thank you for your time making and posting it. I certainly appreciate it. You turned me onto a new one (Resinous polypore) which I found about 10 lbs. worth. Just cut along the outer edges. Quite yummy!!!
How sad this was just an EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL ad.......I am on a fixed income I DO LOVE Fungi though!!! ;0) Happy hunting anyway, I enjoyed your video immensely!
Chris, Thank you! This is such a terrific video for identifying mushrooms. I've been following you for about 17+ years now. You had helped me ID a Bicolor Bolete way, way back. Now, I watch you on Filthy Riches on TV.Question :Is it true, like you have in your video, that there are many varieties of Boletes, all are edible???
Chris nice little slide show of sh rooms, does Flithy Ritches have you locked down? some little videos of correct identification of some of those shrooms would be nice, especially with the one's where there's a few types of that variety, especially the capped mushrooms, I know lot of other folks could use that information as myself, I'm getting better @ identifying a lot of the capped one's better, but still nervous over picking a lot of those, hoping the fall shrooms still do good here in MO with some rain, they were starting to come up good, then we dried out, hoping they will do like the chanterelles did the end of summer
I thought the same...most animals instinctively will not eat poisonous anything and I figured the girls parents were teaching her what not to touch/eat etc.
@@vadaminot429 yep.. we knew. We were always told to NEVER eat ANY mushrooms we saw growing wild. They told us they were all poisons - whether that was true in our area or that was a scare tactic to keep us safe because they didn't know the difference.. who knows. But I'm here, and alive even lol now that I know they're not all poisonous, I want to know more about them. At her age though, she knows not to eat them for sure.
@@Bomber411 I was told that after I got my stomach pumped 😆😂😏😒😣 my dad use to take me looking for Morel's and I conned the neighbor kid into eating see really toxic mushroom.... After that everything was poison 😬 I wasn't three yet but I remember bits and pieces.... My parents still won't eat any wild mushrooms.
Fly Agaric Amanitas(amanita muscaria) are edible, yet acts as a hallucinogen due to being poisonous, there is no psilocybin in it. It has been used for millennia in religious rituals and is still used today in Siberia as an intoxicants. Also can be a great fly trap when crumbled in milk.
Would be nice for u to review the mushrooms, give us information, common names, to go along with this video. I recognized a few, but enjoy learning, thanks
I used to get lots of different mushrooms a long time ago. Now I just get chicken mushrooms and puff balls. Spore prints are best for checking some rooms. You have to be 100 p sure. Thanks.
Honey's are going wild right now, but check to make sure you know all the distinctions between look-alikes (sulphur tuft, deadly galerina). White spore print important for one. Very close look alikes there.
All I know about mushrooms 1. if it does not exactly look like a morel, leave it alone. 2. You better know what you are doing when you hunt other types. Mushrooming is something of an art
that was a beautiful video, and since im new, I learned a lot in a real short amount of time! Thank you Chris Matherly, for teaching me that there is more to mushrooms than the snow caps I get from the supermarket! I don't think the average person would think there are so many different types of them out there. it doesn't say where these mushrooms came from generally, but it would be nice to know, and the time of year they were found also?? I have no idea where to look or when, and im just finding out about Morels and where they are. I lived most of my life in WNY, and no one has ever mentioned a word about mushrooms! great job on the video! its the poisonous ones I worry about ! those the ones I need to know about, so I don't die!
Every different climate is different. My best suggestion is to look up your local mycology group enjoying it. Usually it's only 20 bucks a year to join in most areas. You will meet for mushroom hunting with elderly people that will teach you everything. It's good to learn about mushrooms like this because you will learn very fast and also the socialization is good for the health of humans.
Thank you. I'd be really interested in chatting about how to basically be a great picker if theres any tips for a genuine forager never been a fan of fungi till now. Thank you great video
Well it just so happens that some of the choicest edibles are also great beginner mushrooms. Learn which grow most prolifically in your area, and learn to ID them one species at a time, what they grow from, and what plants they associate themselves with. More importantly, learn how to ID all the poisonous, similar looking ones, so you know which features to be on the look-out for. Good (delicious, and easy to ID) beginner mushrooms to get you started: *Chanterelles* - easy to ID. Sometimes confused with poisonous Jack-o-Lanterns, and there's no good excuse for that. *Cauliflower mushroom* - no mistaking them, really. There are no look-alikes. *Chicken of the Woods* - no mistaking these either. Delicious! Cook thoroughly, and eat only the outer 2 inches of the cap of younger specimens. They become tough and inedible with age. They're hard to digest and cause stomach upset in some individuals as many fungi that grow on wood do. Eat just a small amount for your first time. *Hedgehogs* - arguably the best beginner mushroom of all; an easy to ID toothed mushroom. One of my faves, although a bit scarce in my area. There are no poisonous toothed mushrooms. If it has little spines as a spore bearing surface (instead of gills or pores), it can't harm you. Many toothed mushrooms are _inedible,_ mind you. *Morels* - delicious, hard to spot, spring mushroom. Easy to ID. Requires thorough cooking to neutralize toxins. May cause gastro-intestinal upset in some individuals (but hey, they're gourmet!). There are a few poisonous false morel species, but are easily distinguishable. I won't list White Matsutake (pine mushroom) as a beginner species. Until you've held them, squeezed them, & smelled them in both button and mature form, they can be confused with quite a variety of other white mushrooms, including a couple of deadly ones. If you're in the PNW, drop by a mushroom buyer _now_ and ask to examine some. SMELL them, and smell deeply. You should notice the aroma of cinnamon candies (cinnamon hearts, hot tamales, Big Red gum) amongst the other earthy, fungusy smells. Pay attention to how rock-solid firm they are, the cap colour like a toasted marshmallow, and the *tapered stalk* with the *ash grey, podzolic soil on the tip.* (Yes, the dirt colour is a key feature). Grasp the stem in your fist, and give it a good hard squeeze. If it crushes in your hand, it either has bugs, or it's not a pine mushroom. Feel free to fire questions at me. I've been hunting mushrooms on Vancouver Island for 30 years. If you're not in the PNW, I may not be of great help, but I still know a thing or two.
ok, after seeing the bears head tooth being called lions mane i gotta chime in here.. this is cool video but not one to gauge and identify any edible mushrooms with. some species shown closely resemble suilus varieties and aren't a very palatable species, the armillaria varieties shown can also be easily confused with jack-o-lantern and it takes someone who has been well trained to be able to discern the edible varieties. not all boletes are edible, some are better than others. also the lobster mushroom is actually quite rare as it is a parasitic mold that usually grows on white russula or milk caps
北美的猴头菇(Lion’s Mane mushroom狮鬃菇，大胡子牙菇 )与熊头菇(Bear’s Head mushroo)，先上英文介绍：Botanically known as Hericium americanum, the Bear’s Head mushroom is a North America Hericium species. Bear’s Head mushroom is also known as the Bear’s-head Tooth fungus, or Pom Pom mushroom. It can often be mistaken for one of its sibling species, the Lion’s Mane mushroom (Hericium erinaceus), which grows throughout Asia and in the United States. The difference between the two is very slight, primarily ecological and the presence of a branched fruiting body in the mature americanum species and the lack thereof in the erinaceus species. Bear’s Head mushrooms can be found in the wild and can also be cultivated. 这两种野生菇都是蘑菇佳品，同属Hericium真菌属，珊瑚菌属(又叫猬菌属，牙菌属，鸡枞菌属，猴头菌属)。它们实际上不止两个种，而是至少六种白色珊瑚菌的混称。 猴头菌属或者珊瑚菌属是一个形态整洁优美的食用菌属，有着许多美丽可口的蘑菇，除了六种猴头菌之外，还有其它颜色形态各异的菌类，如鸡枞菌，黄珊瑚菌等等，是蘑菇中的树状种类。猴头菇通常特指菌体整齐，呈完整球状的Hericium erinaceus，熊头菇则为比较松散的珊瑚状，通常是Hericium americanum or H. coralloides, H. abietis这三种真菌之一。它们有时甚至没有牙毛菌体，但是都为白色美味蘑菇。具体形状几乎只能通过图片表示。In 2004, the phylogenetic relationships of Hericium species were analysed by comparing the rDNA internal transcribed spacer sequences of H. abietis, H. alpestre, H. americanum, H. coralloides, H. erinaceum, H. erinaceus and H. laciniatum. This analysis separated H. erinaceum from the six other Hericium species, and showed that H. erinaceus, H. abietis, H. americanum, and H. coralloides are closely related each to other but genetically diverged from H. alpestre and H. laciniatum.
Please don't just pick mushrooms and eat them if they look like the ones in the picture. There are manypoisinous look alikes that are sometimes impossible to tell apart from edible one. Even experts at times have difficulty identifying lookalikes so spore prints are taken for proper identification. This video is misleading and dangerous. Eating the wrong mushroom could cause serious organ damage or failure or possible even death.
Can you tell me more about the scaly vase.... I thought these were woolly chanterelles... I have eaten them before with out any issues, actually several times.
@@ASMRGRATITUDE I'd like to know if you can cultivate the boletus or porcini genus of mushrooms and if not, why. It's one thing to inform by providing a list of the whats but hitting a home rum comes when you as the teacher provide the "why" and the "how"
@@thomashenner4725 I have seen porcini kits as well however the reason why they're not very popular is because it's difficult to get the climate correct for the mushrooms to grow. When I say climate I'm referring to the humidity, lighting, etc that is in your home. Many types of Boletus can be grown at home if you can get the Spore print and then get the conditions just right. The only reason why a person would not be able to grow a certain mushroom at home is because the climate or the conditions are extremely hard to obtain.
@@ASMRGRATITUDE thank you for that information... my friends in Italy who live in Carsoli 30 km south of Rome up in the mountains sorry Hills of Rome... visit me often in Los Angeles and has become most adept at smuggling big fat Pircini fresco mushrooms through customs. When I take them to the Italian restaurants in town the chefs and cooks are simply quite amazed. Sometimes they even throw in a pricey bottle of wine when we dine foc just for the gratitude of being tossed a few porcinis. So you can imagine how rewarding it would be to do the impossible and that's growing at home. This is the first time I've heard of a porcini kit like something for example an oyster mushroom kit. Do you know where I can get one? And thanks again
Start with Lions Mane, Maitake, and Chicken of the Woods. All easily identifiable and not really much chance at mis ID as long as you ask someone to double check ya.
it's common practise not to show both though because someone will remember the poisonous one and could get confused later and eat the wrong one, that's why. It's precautionary.
Orion Riedel this guy fuckin showed us alot of deadly ones. Always avoid mushrooms with different and or weird colors like orange. Second off NEVER eat a mushroom with gills but most importantly the ones with the rings on them. He has showed us some very deadly mushrooms in this video. I am a Perfesional Scientist who ONLY studies mushrooms and things like how to remove the poison from within the gills. Dont trust this video
As a man with 2 decades of mushroom collecting experience I can say that nor the rings nor colors aren't a sure sign if a mushroom is edible/poisonous/deadly. Also even if the gills have their poison removed, other parts of the mushroom may contain poison.
Versacci Dragon - haha, a "Perfesional" scientist who studies mushrooms is a mycologist ;) If your going to lie on the internet, at least try and use the proper vocabulary.
Interesting video, but it would be wise to add the Latin names so that viewers can be sure of what they are looking at. Common names may vary from one region or country to another, and can be very confusing, especially to beginners.
Oh my gosh they looked the same how can you tell them apart? I just experienced with one today I picked outside my house. I hope I won’t croak! I said a prayer before I eat it. Well if anything happens surely I’ll go to mushroom heaven.
I have read in medical reports that ALL mushrooms should NOT be consumed by small children and elderly especially people with health problems like liver failure.
I'm 57 and been hunting the dang things since I was 12... the only mushrooms worth having are morels. People that are often allergic to other mushrooms can seem to tolerate morels. Not giving medical advice here
There other wild mushrooms i would take over morels any day like chanterelles, wild oyster, blewits, and yeah gotta agree with robert, chicken of the woods is delicous.
The fly agaric is not deadly . It is hallucinogenic . May be deadly if you eat a bunch but 2 to 3 grams of dried fly and you will have a good time . Watch Hamilton's Pharmacopeia . season 2 episode 8 .
Unfortunately, people can hear 'toxic' and "deadly" pops to mind. I can just picture someone now, finishing a sip of beer telling me they're not dumb enough to ingest something toxic like that. People don't give their livers enough credit.
A mushroom expert friend of mine took me out on my prairie in Nebraska and we found three edibles, and others she wasn't confident we could identify without spore prints.

@@notmyworld44 I find it weird that false morels, imo, look nothing like a true morel...
A very useful video. While watching the ending sequence, I realized that an "Angel of Death" mushroom had sprouted in my front yard.
That's a great video 👍
Thanks and well done.Music was perfect !
excellent.....
Thank you for posting. Very useful video. Shared on facebook. Thanks again
I think there just beautiful the way they grow .😄
Thank u so much for the video.
Nice vid, well done!
Great video, thank you. I just have to point out that the fly agaric isn't poisonous, unless you consider muscimol a poison.
Отличное видео!

Stepping on puffball: puff!
Stepping on giant puffball: kaboom!
very good .
Excellent Video!!
Nicely Done!
Also boletus has some genius that are toxic. Particularly the ones that stain/bruise when cut or broken
A lot of Boletes that stain are edible. I don't know why people think staining means toxic? Orange bolete or reddish are toxic ..
I really enjoy mushrooms!
Mycology, how little experience I have.
This video is great!

Amazing mushrooms Amazing music
Thank you 👍👍👍v.v.v-nice

猴头菌属或者珊瑚菌属是一个形态整洁优美的食用菌属，有着许多美丽可口的蘑菇，除了六种猴头菌之外，还有其它颜色形态各异的菌类，如鸡枞菌，黄珊瑚菌等等，是蘑菇中的树状种类。猴头菇通常特指菌体整齐，呈完整球状的Hericium erinaceus，熊头菇则为比较松散的珊瑚状，通常是Hericium americanum or H. coralloides, H. abietis这三种真菌之一。它们有时甚至没有牙毛菌体，但是都为白色美味蘑菇。具体形状几乎只能通过图片表示。In 2004, the phylogenetic relationships of Hericium species were analysed by comparing the rDNA internal transcribed spacer sequences of H. abietis, H. alpestre, H. americanum, H. coralloides, H. erinaceum, H. erinaceus and H. laciniatum. This analysis separated H. erinaceum from the six other Hericium species, and showed that H. erinaceus, H. abietis, H. americanum, and H. coralloides are closely related each to other but genetically diverged from H. alpestre and H. laciniatum.
Do honey mushroom have any look alikes besides deadly galerina and jack-o'-lante?
@@edhlavaty6914is it online or guidance book?
I really enjoyed this! Now I need to branch out and taste more different mushrooms 😉
Please don't just pick mushrooms and eat them if they look like the ones in the picture. There are manypoisinous look alikes that are sometimes impossible to tell apart from edible one. Even experts at times have difficulty identifying lookalikes so spore prints are taken for proper identification. This video is misleading and dangerous. Eating the wrong mushroom could cause serious organ damage or failure or possible even death.
Thank you I love mushrooms 🍄
AMAZING
안녕하세요 신비로운 버섯이군요 감사합니다 👍👍
Nice pics! The second "yellow patches" amanita is amanita muscaria, and it is safe to eat well cooked, just not choice.
Get good mushrooms from myco_newt on instagram and telegram he's got psychedelic products like LSD, DMT, SHROOM GRAINS.
Very good demo
I found pearly common oysters on the dead log over the river bank in the woods
Those "Wild Portabella" look like _Agaricus campestris_ or around this local area what are commonly called "meadow mushrooms."
**Cool video, btw.
Can you tell me more about the scaly vase.... I thought these were woolly chanterelles... I have eaten them before with out any issues, actually several times.
Good to know since I do Sharon my bounty most days. Thanks for the info!
Is there a way to preserve these ? I found a ton of hen of the woods , & hate seeing them go bad
Not hotw! Those types need eaten young and don't rehydrate well. Try and luk
Freeze em and cook when frozen
Die Pilze bei 3:35 sind keine Parasol sondern safranschirmlinge, das sieht man an dem rötendem und ungenatterten Stiel
Hey Chris,
The video was extremely informative. I need to know whether these mushrooms can be grown in controlled environment.
Prasanth P R yes there's a lot of mushroom growing kits available online. I would recommend starting with an oyster mushroom kit.
@@ASMRGRATITUDE I'd like to know if you can cultivate the boletus or porcini genus of mushrooms and if not, why. It's one thing to inform by providing a list of the whats but hitting a home rum comes when you as the teacher provide the "why" and the "how"
@@thomashenner4725 I have seen porcini kits as well however the reason why they're not very popular is because it's difficult to get the climate correct for the mushrooms to grow. When I say climate I'm referring to the humidity, lighting, etc that is in your home.
Many types of Boletus can be grown at home if you can get the Spore print and then get the conditions just right. The only reason why a person would not be able to grow a certain mushroom at home is because the climate or the conditions are extremely hard to obtain.
@@ASMRGRATITUDE thank you for that information... my friends in Italy who live in Carsoli 30 km south of Rome up in the mountains sorry Hills of Rome... visit me often in Los Angeles and has become most adept at smuggling big fat Pircini fresco mushrooms through customs. When I take them to the Italian restaurants in town the chefs and cooks are simply quite amazed. Sometimes they even throw in a pricey bottle of wine when we dine foc just for the gratitude of being tossed a few porcinis. So you can imagine how rewarding it would be to do the impossible and that's growing at home. This is the first time I've heard of a porcini kit like something for example an oyster mushroom kit. Do you know where I can get one? And thanks again
0:49 seems to be Galerina
I'm in Arkansas what kinds of mushroom are hear and safe to eat.
@@ChrisMatherly cool now i can go hunting for mushrooms.to bad I didn't have a partner be more fun
Great informative video! Nice vivid, easy to identify pictures!
After seeing the bad mushrooms at the end I can't tell the difference between the good and the bad on this video. Not going to attempt this
Larry Olson you can but start slow and join a club also.
Start with Lions Mane, Maitake, and Chicken of the Woods. All easily identifiable and not really much chance at mis ID as long as you ask someone to double check ya.
like what i see cool vid
I never see the coral mushrooms on Any of these videos. they are a very popular mushroom around here in mid summer.
you had one that was close
whats the name of the music ?
Ditto! ^-^
i always find the talll on ed with black on the insidd
had any one ever tasted the beefsteak mushrooms, if you have does it taste good and it is a gourmet mushroom ?
Cool
Dont name the video common fall edible mushrooms when at the end you show deadly ones
Orion Riedel they said they were going to show poisonous ones
it's common practise not to show both though because someone will remember the poisonous one and could get confused later and eat the wrong one, that's why. It's precautionary.
Orion Riedel this guy fuckin showed us alot of deadly ones. Always avoid mushrooms with different and or weird colors like orange. Second off NEVER eat a mushroom with gills but most importantly the ones with the rings on them. He has showed us some very deadly mushrooms in this video. I am a Perfesional Scientist who ONLY studies mushrooms and things like how to remove the poison from within the gills. Dont trust this video
As a man with 2 decades of mushroom collecting experience I can say that nor the rings nor colors aren't a sure sign if a mushroom is edible/poisonous/deadly. Also even if the gills have their poison removed, other parts of the mushroom may contain poison.
Versacci Dragon - haha, a "Perfesional" scientist who studies mushrooms is a mycologist ;) If your going to lie on the internet, at least try and use the proper vocabulary.
what about the psychedelic mushrooms
They grow all year not just in the Fall. Besides he did show a couple of them.
Anyone know what kind of mushroom this is and if it is edible or poisonous
Interesting video, but it would be wise to add the Latin names so that viewers can be sure of what they are looking at. Common names may vary from one region or country to another, and can be very confusing, especially to beginners.
🙄
Truth...
เห็ดดอกใหญ่มากค่ะ
Does the names of these mushrooms have anything to do with the taste?
some aretaste others color,etc.
Poisonous Mushrooms start at 11:30
Do NOT eat anything that comes after this part!
Oh my gosh they looked the same how can you tell them apart? I just experienced with one today I picked outside my house. I hope I won’t croak! I said a prayer before I eat it. Well if anything happens surely I’ll go to mushroom heaven.
Hmmm 🧐🧐
I have read in medical reports that ALL mushrooms should NOT be consumed by small children and elderly especially people with health problems like liver failure.
I'm 57 and been hunting the dang things since I was 12... the only mushrooms worth having are morels. People that are often allergic to other mushrooms can seem to tolerate morels. Not giving medical advice here
Sulfur shelf aka Chicken mushroom is absolutely delicious and so are many others your missing out brother
There other wild mushrooms i would take over morels any day like chanterelles, wild oyster, blewits, and yeah gotta agree with robert, chicken of the woods is delicous.
Maitake are wonderful.
The fly agaric is not deadly . It is hallucinogenic . May be deadly if you eat a bunch but 2 to 3 grams of dried fly and you will have a good time . Watch Hamilton's Pharmacopeia . season 2 episode 8 .
Unfortunately, people can hear 'toxic' and "deadly" pops to mind. I can just picture someone now, finishing a sip of beer telling me they're not dumb enough to ingest something toxic like that. People don't give their livers enough credit.
that was the mad honey episode, not a mushroom one btw. was just about to go watch haha
Reddening parasol and shaggy parasol are the same mushroom.
