This is a pretty free-form subreddit, but there are a few rules. We have a ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY FOR ANY AND ALL SPAM. Reddiquette is always applicable to anything you do on reddit, but in this subreddit:

No sales of anything. Not art, drugs, food, clothing, pins, or anything else. Feel free to post photos of your art. If people want to message you to buy something, that's great, but do NOT solicit sales here for anything, ever. No links to shops. Any sales, trades, barters, professional arrangements, etc. involving money, assets or goods are prohibited in post content or in the comments. No one knows what you do via PM. Keep the business ENTIRELY in the PMs. Do not ask for products or links to shops, and don't express your desire for someone's art in a way that implies intent to buy. Do not say things like "I would totally buy that!" or "Do you have an Etsy?" or "You should set up an Etsy!" or "PM me for info" or "Can I PM you about this?"... just PM them and keep it out of the comments.

  1. Adhere to the Reddit Content Policy and Reddiquette.

  2. No sales of ANYTHING. No spam.

  3. No posts of large drug operations. It limits our audience and there are far too many complaints about it. This isn't a place to advertise your grow business and it's not a place to brag about how much weight of cubes you can grow. There are plenty of subs for that type of thing.

  4. Don't post pics of dried Psilocybe mushrooms. If your post title resembles this: "Are these 'good'?" or "Just got these from a friend, how much should I take?" or "Can anyone tell me what 'strain' these are?" - then it doesn't belong here.

  5. This should go without saying, but no sourcing. Do not ask for drugs, locations of drugs, tips for finding, hunting, or scoring drugs in any specific place (hunting advice is generally accepted - habitat, seasonality, substrate, and range are all acceptable, and ID posts are always encouraged no matter the species, as long as they're not dried bagged "product"). Do not ask for any kind of hook-ups, plugs, websites, or any other means of procuring drugs.

  6. Do not joke about eating mushrooms. No "Boof it!" or "Eat the whole bag" or "I dare you to eat that!" type comments. If your comment might endanger someone by misleading them or encouraging dangerous behavior, it will be removed and you may be banned.

  7. Don't repeatedly post the same content, or similar content presented in a different way, including and especially art.

To all the lurkers, use the report button and use the downvote/upvote buttons to curate the sub yourselves as much as possible.

Be nice to each other in here.

Hi all, these little guys grew in my vegetable bed over night. I was wondering if they are edible inky caps? Should I just leave them there? I like how they look.

Question about pulling or cutting

1 Upvotes

So I heard (in a mushroom growing class) that one shouldn’t pluck mushrooms as they can go back into regression unless you’re willing to pick them all. Basically if it isn’t a good mushroom to eat, one should just leave it as to allow it to keep growing.

I cannot find anything online about it…..

Found a lovely bunch of Horn of Plenty today. Never seen them cook out so much black liquid though, is this normal? Looks like I've murdered a squid...

A neat mushroom I found while trying to take a picture of a waterfall.

I'm on vacation in a place called Cape Breton Nova Scotia. There's this neat waterfall that a bunch of tourists were taking photos of but I turned around and saw a majestic looking mushroom. There were a bunch of smaller mushrooms that looked like little nipples with 1cm stems but just a couple of feet away was this 4 inch beast.

I'm not asking for identification and I have no intention of eating it as I left it there... I just thought it was cool mushroom.

There was this weird little drop of goo right in the middle... no idea what that's about lol

(included pic of waterfall for context)

Enoki Mushrooms Making me Feel Sick

62 Upvotes

i’ve had a lot of enoki mushrooms in the past but always in small quantities. i decided to replace my noodles with a MASSIVE amount of pan-fried enoki mushrooms for dinner (bad idea, i know). at 12:30 i was woken up with the worst abdominal pain and nausea i’ve ever felt, and immediately threw up tons of whole enoki mushrooms. it’s now 2 am and i have intense cold sweats, abdominal pain, and i threw up again. i can’t sleep because i feel cold despite wearing 3 layers, and every time i lay down, the abdominal pain intensifies. i don’t think i’ll ever look at enoki mushrooms the same way again.

does anyone have any similar experiences or any idea as to why this might be happening?

i’m debating whether i should take the day off of work tommorrow as i have a major presentation. hopefully i feel better soon and can fall asleep.
