#CAMPFIRE CONVERSATION: Season 8 - [Fungi Lovers Challenge]

(Edited)

Hola, fungi lovers!


The next week of talks around the fire is over and it's time to take stock. I will try to be as short as possible

На прошлой неделе мы делились любимыми местами. У каждого грибника есть своя "грядка" в лесу. Сейчас мы посмотрим как они выглядят. Но вначале я прошу извинить меня за некоторую задержку с этим итоговым постом.Бамбук стареет...надеюсь, это не признак деменции :)

Last week we shared our favorite spots. Each mushroom picker has his own "bed" in the forest. Now we will see how they look. But first I ask you to excuse me for some delay with this final post. Bamboo is getting old ... hopefully this is not a sign of dementia :)


This is how a real mushroom picker should look like. First, he goes into the forest and cut down a clearing for his future mushroom garden. Then he plants mushrooms and makes a call to the heavenly office. Yes, mushrooms love rain and sun. Sometimes all together and at the same time. If you want to exchange experiences, contact @regenerette, she is a great specialist in this matter.

Вот так должен выглядеть настоящий грибник. Вначале он идёт в лес и вырубает поляну для своей будущей грибной грядки. Потом сажает грибы и делает звонок в небесную канцелярию. Да, грибы любят дождь и солнце. Иногда всё вместе и одновременно. Хотите обменяться опытом, свяжитесь с @regenerette, она большой специалист в этом деле.


@ sketch.and.jam went even further. He dug a real canal to his clearing. It was not easy for him. Do you see these rocks? You can't do with a simple shovel. He's just a forest exploration hero.

@sketch.and.jam пошёл ещё дальше. К своей поляне с грибами он прокопал настоящий канал. Ему пришлось не легко. Вы видите эти скалы? Тут не обойдёшься простой лопатой. Он просто герой освоения леса.


@ suzana72 turned out to be an even more sophisticated mushroom picker. Do you think this is the road that will lead you to her garden bed? Go, go, maybe you will find something. But not where she caresses and cherishes her mushrooms. Nice tactic.

@suzana72 оказалась ещё более изощрённым грибником. Вы думаете это та дорога, которая приведёт вас на её грядки? Идите-идите, может быть что-нибудь и найдёте. Но не там, где она холит и лелеет свои грибы. Хорошая тактика.


The most insidious of them all, of course our friend @qwerrie. He wants to take you to the swamp and leave you there for the night. Maybe he will come for you in the morning. But I'm not sure if your basket will be full of mushrooms. He just wants to test your character and increase your survival rate. This is very important in the modern world.

Самый коварный из всех, конечно наш друг @qwerrie. Он хочет завести вас в болото и оставить там на ночь. Может быть он придёт за вами утром. Но я не уверен, что ваша корзина будет полна грибов. ОН просто захочет испытать ваш характер и повысить вашу выживаемость. В современном мире это очень важно.


Keeping up with our previous friend and valiant @ tych021. You don't look at his avatar. There he is very good-natured and naive. In fact, this is not the case. Just look where he wants to take you. All evil lives there. You will surely meet the kikimora, the goblin and their servants. If you're lucky, you will see Viy, but don't look him in the eye. However, his eyelids are lowered. What about mushrooms? I think you will simply forget about them.

Не отстаёт от нашего предыдущего друга и доблестный @tych021. Вы не смотрите на его аватарку. Там он очень добродушный и наивный. На самом деле это не так. Вы только посмотрите куда он хочет вас завести. Там живёт всякая нечисть. Вы наверняка встретите кикимору, лешего и их прислугу. Если повезёт, то увидите Вия, но не смотрите ему в глаза. Впрочем, его веки опущены. А как насчёт грибов? Думаю, про них вы просто забудете.


Ha-ha ... you thought your adventures were over ... no matter how they are, they are just beginning and it is not known where you will find yourself in the next minute. Yes, @ruta-rudens took you to a light and cute forest. You had time to relax after visiting the swamps ... but in vain. A witch lives in this forest. I don't know if she is kind or not. Look at the horse's skull, maybe you can understand it yourself.

Ха-ха...вы думали, что ваши приключения закончены...как бы не так, они только начинаются и неизвестно, где вы окажетесь в следующую минуту. Да, @ruta-rudens привела вас в светлый и милый лес. Вы успели расслабиться после посещения болот...но совершенно напрасно. В этом лесу живёт ведьма. Я не знаю, добрая она или не очень. Посмотрите на череп лошади, может быть вы сами поймёте.


I ask the authors to excuse me for the free translation of our conversations around the fire.

I just scanned their hidden thoughts :-))

Если хотите погреться и поучаствовать в дружеской беседе, я вас приглашаю к [нашему грибному костру]((https://hive.blog/hive-166168/@bambuka/campfire-conversation-fungi-lovers-challenge))

If you want to warm up and take part in a friendly conversation, I invite you to [our mushroom fire]((https://hive.blog/hive-166168/@bambuka/campfire-conversation-fungi-lovers-challenge))

Спасибо всем, кто подкидывал дрова к наш костёр. Особая благодарность выражается @ranchorelaxo и @trafalgar за весомое поддержание нашего костра и грибников.

Thanks to everyone who threw firewood to our fire. This time, special thanks go to @ranchorelaxo and @trafalgar for their significant support of our campfire and mushroom pickers.

Voila! Three eggs in the nest... uh, I mean, three mushrooms! And the quest wasn't as simple as it looked like. On the one hand - trivia! But on the other hand - while searching through the archives, I noticed the vast majority of mushrooms prefer to grow in pairs rather than triples. There is some kind of mystery hidden here, definitely; a pattern I have not yet discovered. Perhaps herr @bambuka has already penetrated into it...?
NB. puff-balls is on my photo. Edible mushroom. Focus stake made of 2 macro shots.

Вуаля! три яичка в гнездышке... то есть, я хотел сказать - три грибочка! А задача оказалась не так-то проста. Тривиально, с одной стороны. Но с другой - в процессе поиска по архиву выяснилось, что просто подавляющее большинство грибов предпочитает расти парами, а не тройками. Тут скрыта какая-то тайна. Непознанная мной пока закономерность. Возможно, уважаемый бамбук уже проник в нее?..

потому что вдвоем - скучно, вчетвером - тесно, а далее впятером и больше, неизбежно компания начинает разбиваться и аггрегироваться на маленькие группки и сообщества. все серьезные дела лучше вершить втроем. треугольник - самая устойчивая фигура!

Thank you for another week by the fire @bambuka. My recent morel hunts have left we with no morels, but plenty of pictures of other fungi. Here are 3 large pieces of Ganoderma lobatum I found growing from a stump in a clearing recently made by a controlled burn. The largest was around 0.5 m in diameter.

I too was searching all weekend for morels but found none. Spring has been rather dry down here. I even went all the way out to the Mississippi river to see if they were there and only found a bunch of false morels. I was tempted to take one home to try and eat it but decided not to lol. Those lobatums you found would make interesting wall shelves with a Z or L clip hanging system.

Maybe someone loves photos of three in a row, but in the mushroom kingdom there are different rules. They like to gather there in pairs and companies. However, the Calocybe gambosa (May mushroom)often appears in groups. Three is an accident, but the moment captured, although then a whole dozen appeared around them. If you find their mycelium, then in an hour on an area of 10 sq. meters you can collect a bucket.

Может кто и любит фото по три в ряд, но в грибном царстве другие правила. Любят собираться там парами и компаниями. Однако гриб-рядовка частенько появляется группами. Три -это случайность, но момент запечатлен, хотя потом вокруг их появилась целая дюжина. Если найти их грибницу, то за час на площади в 10 кв. метров можно и ведро собрать.

I found this skull without it's antler in poland last autumn and took it with me to germany where I found this three cute amanita muscaria. Here you see an vanitas arrangement. I know it's a bit weird - but it's the only picture with three mushrooms in it I found in my archives. ;)

This elk was killed by hunters and its horns were cut off. It's sad.
But you cheated us, these mushrooms were not filmed in the forest, you just chose three from the basket))))
I wonder how you use them?

Yeah, a bit cheat maybe, but still three mushrooms in one photo :P

Well, i just used them for the picture. They grow in masses here, so i think it´s not a problem. I tried them once for a psychedelic experience - it was pretty interesting, but i have no intention to do it again. There are better mushrooms growing here for that usecase in my opinion.

I have not tried Amanita muscaria for psychedelics. But I use them in small doses for health. They have an interesting feature. Before using one (!) Hat of a DRY fly agaric, ask him for either a good sleep, or vigor and energy for business. What you set yourself up for, you will get such a result :)

I can see a good still life composition with these for a rock album. Just place one mushroom in each eye socket then one in the nose socket. This would make for a trippy rudolf the red nosed reindeer stoner sludge rock album cover.

Should be pretty trippy looking. Too bad the horns were not left on the skull. I suppose you could infuse some branches with mycelium then once the mushrooms grow you could attach the branches onto where the horns used to be.

What synchronicity, as it turns out I was in the forest today and found this trinity of mushrooms. Now I don't even need to search through my archives to find a group of three mushies growing together. I believe this may be an evil trinity though as its common name is Devil's Urn with the latin name Urnula Craterium. I read these are technically edible but are not very tasty and have a tough texture. But if you are trying to survive in the forest without food they could come in handy.

The mythical thunderbirds from native American lore hatch out of these. Though whenever I think about thunderbird mythology and the drawn symbols I always think of stealth bombers or jet airplanes. At least the mushrooms are matte black like a stealth bomber :-).

Hello there fellow fungi enthusiasts!
Everytime I decide to stroll across the Black Forest I pass this old still staying trunk of a tree. I suspect that it got struck by lightning 'cause the upper part doesn't excist anymore. But next to dusty spider webs there are some impressive big fungi. Since I'm still learning I would say that those are fomes fomentarius.
What a mysterious sight!

If I understand correctly, this is an old spruce.
Your mushrooms are similar in appearance to the bordered tinder fungus (fomitopsis pinicola). But in appearance in the photo it is difficult to draw a final conclusion. You may be right.
Nice find. If you find young mushrooms, chop and dry. You can make both alcohol and water tincture (not higher than +50 C). Good for immunity, against viruses and bacteria and many more useful properties .. Just do not pick mushrooms in the city and nearby :)

Yes, you are correct it is indeed an old spruce. I will take another closer look at the mushrooms on my next stroll to be certain. Since the colours don't quite match to be an fomitopsis pinicola but maybe they are really old ones.
I know that the picture is not sharp enough to determine the mushroom with certainty. I decreased the quality so it won't take too long to load. (The original picture was taken in .raw, but I think pictures that big will crash this whole post ;) )

Thank you for your insight! If my path crosses younger fungi I will try your recommendation!

Yours: >^.^<

"Three heroes" 🍄🍄🍄

A walk on the sand, and the pine forest .... All my senses are filled .. We walk quietly ... if some deer decides to cross the road. The view wanders, and I see a group of tiny mushrooms ...
And I take photos from all sides and these three posed really nicely for me 🤗
