Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Can anyone please identify these mushrooms for me? they have been growing with the edible " puffballs " that I always get. They are beauties. I wish I knew if they were edible and what they are. I posted pics of them, please take a look: http://www.objectsforsims2.com/temp/shrooms/shrooms.htm thanks!!

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Chanda I see these growing all over the place. DO NOT EAT THEM unless you get someone who knows mushrooms tell you if they are edible or not. There is one lawn here that is covered with mounds of these. They are absolutely gorgeous and quite firm to touch. Roxanne PHilly PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 They look wonderful. I went looking for edible mushrooms and was surprised to see how many looked almost like these. At Whole Foods last week there were mushrooms that I had never seen. One was $24.95 a pound. I don't know what they were and I wouldn't know what to do with them. The only one I buy is baby bellas. Wish I could help. Sue ---- PuterWitch 10/04/06 18:07:37 shrooms in my yard Can anyone please identify these mushrooms for me? they have been growing with the edible " puffballs " that I always get.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Chanda, From your picture, the mushrooms look like they may be " Dentum Repandum " . They are definitely a tooth mushroom as in the dentum name. With mushrooms it is always best to err on the side of caution. I would call up the county extension service to see if you can take it to them to identify. It is too tough to identify just from the picture. Some are easier to identify from a picture. If they cannot identify it, then ask if therre is a local mushroom club or person who may be able to identify it. If it is dentum repandum, it is edible. They leave a white spore print. You cannot go just by the spore print though. If the print is not white, the it is definitely not dentum repandum. It would be fun to take a black piece of paper and set the mushroom teeth side down and see what color the spores leave, especially if you have children.

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 They are too pretty to be edible. And, the colors are too nice. Instant poison I think Luanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 O I don't know about that. Have you ever been to a whole foods and seen their mushroom selection? The lobster shrooms are red! I joined a for mushrooms and one experienced fellow says that it is probably edible with 99% certainty it is the honey something mushroom. I wouldn't eat them anyway, considering my dog may have fertilized them :oD but I was just curious. This isthe first year I have seen them. I always get puffballs, which are definitely edible (look like a big baseball) LOL funny, my sister has a deck on the back of her house, and the door to the deck got buckled due to poor construction, which left a little gap at the bottom. Last year it rained a lot, and it took her a while to notice that right by that door, under her dining room carpet were apatch of little mushrooms, LOL. we cooked them up for diner that night ....... nah, just kidding about that part. hugs, Chanda - Luanne Moore A Wednesday, October 04, 2006 10:53 PM Re: shrooms in my yard They are too pretty to be edible.
