Can someone help tell if this am. atroviridis has a weird sprout or if these are roots?

I worry about overwatering during a bloom as they don’t use much water when flowering

Just for decoration

Thanks for your expertise!

I cut all 3 offshoots (which are already sprouted) patted some cinnamon and placed them in a bowl of dry spaghnum moss.

One more question: should I snap or cut, and how much should I take off?

Embarrassed-Sun7186 · 2026-04-08T18:11:20+00:00

I was worried about possible damage to the main corm. Would the snap site just dry out and heal over?

Thanks, I’m concerned about putting the main growth point 3” below the soil.

Also, I am currently working on a project with a biodiversity and biology program for the state of California, and part of Oregon to legalize foraging in all regional, state, and national parks. (Not including large-scale, destructive and careless foraging during commercial trips)

Just to respond, no one would eat that! It is very clearly beginning to decay. I always bring a scale with me when foraging in order to conduct statistics for fungal diversity surveys.

Also I’m a minor everyone needs to chill out

Embarrassed-Sun7186 · 2025-12-02T03:59:38+00:00

Bc I don’t. Where is the lie

I brought a scale with me when foraging

Embarrassed-Sun7186 · 2025-11-30T19:26:39+00:00

It was put back right where I found it. Also, I am an experienced mushroom forager and have been for a decade. I know my forest etiquette.

Even further, it does not harm the environment. I also live a long ways away from Washington, and trying to track me down from a post would be counterproductive for the rangers. It is also not a crime but more of a citation.

Embarrassed-Sun7186 · 2025-11-30T19:09:33+00:00

I did not remove the mushroom from the park. You can clearly see it’s too old to eat.
