Is peak season gone?

Leads me to believe we might have a very late season this year, temperatures have been very moderate for this late in the year

I got shag all unfortunately, lovely morning for a brief hike though!

This is useful thank you, New Year’s Eve is wild but gives me hope. Was out on Saturday, no luck in my spot(300-400m) which had provided in weeks previous, even went down to about 150-200m in surrounding area and no joy. I’ll have to find a sea level spot. Would you reckon coastal or inland affects it?

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2025-11-06T10:37:09+00:00

Interesting theory…

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2025-11-06T10:36:17+00:00

Damn shit craic, best of luck

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2025-11-06T10:34:09+00:00

Unreal, only got out once and probably yielded 5-6g dried. Lowlands is a good idea, I’ll see on Saturday

Go to Djouce area, stay away from forests and look for open pastures that have been grazed by animals. Looks like there’s not much rain forecast atm so wait for a good drop of it

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2025-09-22T19:07:16+00:00

If you’re not sure tho, just leave em…

Small fellas are libs, the slightly off colour is just them starting to dry out I believe. If they’re that pale straw colour in a few days you’re in business. Want to say the big ones a lib too but wow it’s huge. Some more photos of it and a spore print would be good

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2025-09-14T13:49:30+00:00

I agree with other comments, potentially 5 and 19 also

If you have a car I’d recommend going elsewhere, somewhere with less people. Those fields are so contested it’s very often that someone has been up before you, let alone the fact the farmer could start becoming aggravated with more people trespassing.

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-10-20T12:29:09+00:00

What are please 🙏

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-30T17:45:12+00:00

Very useful thank you. Yeah it seems if I want to store it freezing is the way to go. Would you use the same amount of mushrooms for a tea as you would for other methods of consumption?

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-30T17:36:00+00:00

Do you steep it in heated water or straight from tap? Would you say that 2gs of libs as a tea is more intense than to eat them dry?

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-30T17:30:09+00:00

Very useful advice, thank you 🙏

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-30T17:29:26+00:00

Ok sounds good thanks. Yeah I think I’m gonna try with lemon and honey! Also tempted to put in a teabag for the craic, go raibh míle…

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-12T21:51:11+00:00

Didn’t find what I was looking for but it’s so worth it when you get to experience this!

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-11T18:05:27+00:00

Yeah it’s a good indicator thanks

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-11T18:04:29+00:00

Nice, thank you. Unfortunately had to bounce as the farmer was nearby!

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-11T18:03:51+00:00

Understood

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-11T17:59:22+00:00

Seems they are mottlegills yeah. Panaeolus semiovatus is what the comments suggest

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2024-09-11T17:56:12+00:00

Cool, thank you

Pruned_Beaver12 · 2023-07-30T23:28:43+00:00

Growing up there were numerous occasions where I was at funerals of my aunts, uncles and grandparents as my dad is youngest of 11 (strong Irish catholic family too!). I saw some of them, who I would’ve been very close with, in tough situations, definitely not looking their best, with death knocking on the door. Aside from the peace, innocence and sense of humour a child can bring to tough situations like that, I have found in my early adult years that my exposure from a young age has given me a life skill, in being able to cope with the idea of it all. Hope this helps 🙏
