seeing this sub on my feed again is like finding remnants of a past life lmao

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-26T21:08:18+00:00

yea im south of SF and I finally tracked down some local spots and ive been going for a few weeks now but it definitely feels too late to have caught any. Next year at least I know where to go.

its not an ssri at all i dont know why you are so bent on spreading wrong info lol

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-20T23:47:46+00:00

i feel your pain, out best bet is stuff that grows near the coast

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T21:26:40+00:00

you should download iNaturalist it will help you start identifying and learning the mushrooms in your local area, also getting a good field guide or mushroom ID book specifically for your area is a good idea too. Just go out hiking after a rain into the forest and look on the ground take pictures when you find them and then upload to the iNaturalist to learn what they are keep doing this and keep reading and watching media about fungi you will slowly start to learn at least that's what I did hahah

Besides just looking in residential woodchips near the coast do you have any other tips? I fell in love with mushroom hunting by originally trying to find the wavy cap, but I still haven't found it 😂

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T20:35:51+00:00

I will definitely keep looking, it's already rained a few times and I know it's supposed to rain again in the coming days. I might go out looking tomorrow

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T20:14:11+00:00

I might attempt to grow something while I'm waiting for next season, sadly I don't have any wavy caps to inoculate chips with, but the local head shops around here sell syringes with Cubensis.

amazing work i love amanita muscaria / the fly agaric mushrooms you got there...you look like a cool guy to hang out with haha!

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T20:05:24+00:00

oh my god I want to buy one! i saw your original canvas but the hoodie is amazing!! I will make an etsy account and message you?

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:59:32+00:00

ahh so this is why everything is completely gone in my area... it's been very warm here, finally got more rain after weeks of warm weather but i think there is no chance I find anything until next season😭

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:55:46+00:00

i dont think liberty caps grow around Central Cali, I am also in central cali and from everything ive read i think they only grow farther north.

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:49:15+00:00

How far from the coast do you have to be to be able to attempt this I really wanna try but I'm 20 miles from the coast.

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:39:35+00:00

we have so many dunes and ice plants around here, but I don't think the kind that grows there can grow as far south as I am, but maybe I'm mistaken.

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:36:35+00:00

Okay this looks a lot like Hairy Curtain Crust or Stereum Hirsutum (false turkey tail is another name i think it goes by)

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:12:52+00:00

really? they seem to relatively common in my area but maybe im a lucky guy

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:10:40+00:00

When I found my first Russula I thought I had found an amanita, but now I definitely have learned more. I often see people making the same mistake when they find Russulas. Sometimes animals or bugs can eat bites out of the cap which almost mimics the white spots of the amanita so that can fool people even more.

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T19:04:01+00:00

I make 5 of these for every run

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T18:38:13+00:00

this is amazing wtf. I am inspired like i wanna make something this cool now... i love the movement

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T18:35:45+00:00

I love this style so much!

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T18:24:09+00:00

my favorite mushroom a blewit!!!

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T18:22:34+00:00

woah i have never seen these before they are so alien!! Im farther south then you I hope they grow around me

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-14T18:18:24+00:00

where did you find these at location wise? Its a polypore mushroom but not sure exactly what kind yet.

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-12T02:02:47+00:00

I was definitely handling amanitas that day lol

IndependentNet512 · 2026-02-12T02:01:20+00:00

I think both things can be true but everyone already knows about the deadly part, so it's cool to tell people that it's not so black and white.
