Fungi Lovers digest — April 2021

Up to date we are 742 subscribers, 73 active posters, and had 333 interactions last week. Community account reached the total power of 4570 HP. Do you like getting upvotes for your posts, wanna see this place flowrish? Lets grow together! Delegate to FL. We dont ask too much. Adding community as a 10% beneficiary of your posts is a decent way to go. Its a give and take, right? One cannot just take all the way, without giving back . . . :/

FL is a part of @OCD community incubation program. In brief, it means @OCD encourages hiveans to post to dedicated communities by giving back nice upvotes for great posts.

If you come here to earn crypto - ok, good for you! whales and curators like to chew mushrooms and show up here from time to time. So, its a good place to share the stuff. You also will be getting upvotes from FL community account. But if you dont engage with others, preferring to milk it up and give nothing back, instead of growing together... Well, dont ask yourself or mods then, why your posts earn nothing.

Also, a kindly ask: go for quality, instead of quantity. No need to spam over the place with low quality posts, that will get you no readers; its pointless and waste of your lifetime.

@OCD- curated posts

@derangedvisions shared a cool story, how he bought a mushroom growing kit from Walmart and levelled-up his gardening skills. Everything worked out greatly, and look at the post rewards! I bet with the post rewards he have returned back all the cash he spent at growing-kit. Isnt it sweet?

@harferri from Aceh shared with us a beautiful yellow fungi blooming on a rotten deadwood. They look splendid and very touchy, what else I can add? Everything that nature has created, in fact, can cause feelings of tenderness.

Fungi can reach anywhere! @donald.porter told a nice story for #fungifriday which I enjoyed pretty much. In brief, they appeared overnight after a late rain in a flower pot. And apparently the mycelium reached through a dead coconut tree stump, through a plastic flower pot to finally release their spawn. Author comes to an obvious and reasonable conclusion that mushrooms do communicate, and they’re super intelligent! As they appeared right in time, showed up (solely) to spur this post and an idea for the #fungifriday. Sweet!

Look at those nice Trametes sp. fungi that @oks2crypto found on a plum tree. Sometimes when the season is not on its peak, bracketing fungus is the only option to shoot, and it could be pretty boring... To give him credit, those editions even without googlyeyes, still look splendid! Well done.

And a little reminder: we have a nice fun challenge at HIVE, hold by @EwkaW: #FungiFriday. I hope many of you will join, as there are only 2 simple rules:

when Friday comes, share your fungi with us! post your own, original photo/drawing/art/food/anything-at-all of any type of fungi (yes, stolen images will be checked and reported !)
add #fungifriday (not necessarily must be your 1st tag). that's all!
