This was very cool to see, if you know what it is please let me know.
Turns out both grow in my area, and look identical to this when young. Yikes! So based on a post yesterday, I took this outside and sliced it in half. So far it looks promising (I think?) and I’m not dead yet....
Is there any way to be be 100% certain?
This mushroom recently popped up in my backyard, and also did around the same time last year. I am in the Mid-Atlantic region of the US....
Thought he was a peice of trash at first 😅
When I found a group of these growing in the grass I thought that they were St. George’s Mushrooms. I then took a spore print and it was reddish brown rather than the expected white, so I then I thought I may have a toxic Inocybe instead, and lost all confidence in my ability of being able to recognize edible mushrooms…...
TL;DR: both clusters are the same, but I will redo the test...

Found a big one this time. It’s supposed to be edible but doesn’t sound to tasty and is supposed to be gathered young....
Found a mushroom growing up in a tree in my backyard. Curious to know what variety it is. Any information is appreciated!
I am doing research into setting up a mini farm for gourmet and medicinal mushrooms and am currently looking into long term mycelium storage....
Some fungus I saw last year. For a sense of scale, the trunk is about two foot in diameter.
Howdy y’all! I am diving extremely deep into mycology and am on a quest to catch up on all modern research on the subject. I recently discovered 21st Century Guidebook to Fungi (Free from the authors!! …org.uk/21st_century_guidebook_to_fungi_platinum/) but I need MORE! I’ll list out some conditions and wants to see if that...
