Just started showing up in our chipped wood mulch
We have a number of large piles of rotted wood chips on our land from about five years old when we had to clear a few trees. They produced quite a few two years ago, then nothing last year with the dry fall in our area. We're happy to see them again.
On today's episode of "Death or Dinner"
It looks like white oyster mushroom which are super delicious. Theres a mushroom app called picture mushroom, where you take a picture and it tells you about it, so id check that first. If you like mushrooms then you're lucky to have these growing here!
Yes, they are delicious. A pain to clean though, there must be a trick to it that I haven't figured out yet.
Are those edible?
My friend, all fungi are edible, but some fungi are only edible once.
Oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus). I picked and dried a bunch two years ago and we've been adding them to soups and sauces. We're still alive and well.
There's at least one way to find out...
Psilocybe cubensis are much more resilient than people give them credit for and are really easy to grow. UB tek is great if you don't want to mess around with pressure sterilization or anything like that.
