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.

I’m going to do a spore print to look for pink/salmon spores overnight. If it checks out then I’ll cook it and try a bit. Has anyone cooked with this kind of mushroom? I’ve heard they’re sought-after 🍄‍🟫

Chicken of the woods kapsalon (Nijmegen, the Netherlands)

The season is there!! after some hot hot weeks the wheather changed and finaly there was rain. I knew the chickens wood start to go to the woods and create this great mushroom.

My neighbour found the first ones somewhere in our neighbourhood a few days ago. So I knew it was time, I went to a tree I discovered last year which produces massive amounts of chicken of the woods, or how we call it in durch: zwavelzwam (sulfurshroom).
Made a traditional dutch dish with it: the Kapsalon. Traditionally made with fries, döner, garlic sauce, chili/sambal sauce, salad and cheese. Now I replaced the döner with baked chicken of the woods, made some garlic sauce and got the cheese melted on top in the oven.

It was a real feast and still I have 2 kilos left!
Happy foraging everyone the chickens are out there!

liefs Pablo,

Been in this house several years and never had mushrooms like this. We pull a large grocery sack every week.

Tried using Ai to identify them but it seemed way off.

They stay low under the grass and some of them get very large in diameter. Not very symmetrical

Pretty sure this is witches butter. Always a fun find because it sticks out against all the green and brown.

I'm shooting most of these at 600mm which is not ideal but I think it gives them their own distinctive look. Overall a good hike was had. I've been trying to capture more of a mini-landscape type shot. Hope you enjoy! ❤️ Northern NJ, USA

Hi! I'm 99% sure this is chicken of the woods but before I eat it and potentially perish in the night, can someone please confirm? Found in the UK
