mushfun Posted July 29, 2014 Comparing these to photos on WB's fungal finds thread I'm thinking they might be wood blewits. What do you all think? Found them growing inside a 44 gallon drum with the ends cut, which I have put around a walnut tree as protection. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 waterboy 2.0 Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) on a glance they look good to me, and bigguns.....do a spore print on paper/foil if you still have them be a pinkish print I find they have a distinctive smell as well. EDIT - if they print up good those stem butts can be used to propagate it on as well if you have a pile of leaves about Edited July 29, 2014 by waterboy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 mushfun Posted July 29, 2014 Ah Ok, good one. That was taken on the weekend but I left some in the drum I'll check if they are still there, get a print. They did have an interesting smell. I think I smelt them before I sighted them in the drum as I was checking the walnut out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 mushfun Posted July 29, 2014 I don't what the smell reminded me of, but it was familiar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
