No problem! Happy I could help out.

You're welcome!

You too! I'll be out hunting for more mushrooms to share for next the next WednesdayWalk

I will absolutely start using those tags. Thank you for the support @riverflows!

Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed the pictures!

Best of luck growing them!

Thank you for letting me know!

The certification allows me to sell unprocessed, wild-foraged mushrooms to individuals and restaurants within the state of Michigan. I'm only allowed to sell species from a pre-specified list of 20 genera

As far as I am aware, parboiling is not necessary for honey mushrooms. You may want to only eat the caps however. The stems can be fairly fibrous.

Thank you so much! I'm glad that you enjoyed the post :)

Thank you!

Are they tasty? I've heard that wood hedgehogs are good, but not much on the other hedgehog species.

I highly recommend the second edition Peterson Field guide. I have both the first and second editions, and they are both great resources if you live in North America. iNaturalist.com, mushroomobserver.org,

I did! There were tons of tinder conks (Fomes fomentarius) as well as a few other red-brown conks that I believe were Ganoderma sessile, though I'm not certain.

My entry to this week's competition - an orchard orbweaver and its web:

Happy to join!

Gracias!

It's been a few weeks since I have submitted an entry to this challenge, but I hope that you enjoy this entry. I look forward to going through the entries each week; thank you for organizing this competition!

You're right, we've had a few good rains over the last couple of weeks. The ghost pipes are pretty cool. I was curious why they have no chlorophyll to photosynthesize, and it turns out that they are parasitic

You're welcome! I came across them for the first time a few months ago and had to figure out what they were. They're a really beautiful and brightly colored species in person.
