| Macrolepiota rachodes Just going through some of my memory cards and postin pics..... I wanted to show this one cause it may be my favorite of the season. Well, that I'll be posting anyway!
It was a Macrolepiota rachodes and it was tasty! Note the reddish bruised cut on its stalk. Looks like it hurt! This was actually one of a troop, but its setting under a conifer bush was just right.
I tried to take prints but messed them up. Very wet. Luckily a very nice person was able to hook me up with spores of one of their finds. THANKS MASON!!!!!!!
Stamets says these are good candidates for stem butt cultivation au natural! I experimented and threw some in various lawn and garden clippings/compost beds.... We'll see next year I guess. He also says not all strains taste the same. I find that weird. But mine tasted good. Nutty. So whatever.
I think I'll keep it for an avatar for november! An ode to Fall!
