Dude I normally sell some but I had a recent mite infestation and all I have is white oysters and Lepista sordida at the moment.

Hi I think it was an oak stump

Hi - with the weird weather patterns it appears we've had lots of Agaricus, boletes early and now lots of these guys: Boiled for ten minutes, sliced and then cooked quickly on a super-hot pan:

My neighbour yanked a few of these out of the ground - complete with mummified caterpillar! Coolness...

We got the DNA back on these guys - turns out they are Lepista sordida which obviously also grows native in Australia. And confirmed edible.

Xanthoderma and other phenol-containing Agaricus stain yellow that fades as its oxidised within half an hour. Yellow staining in other Agaricus (usually almond-smelling species) does not fade.

Having considered this in more detail i think daffy does little for me because i use stimulants to increase my blood pressure (which it doesnt seem to). therefore for me it was pretty useless.

what works for me is h202 and sub culturing on agar plates. Every other technique is hit and miss,

Last but not least a shaggy parasol:

Macrolepiota clelandii Phlebopus marginatus And a nasty one - Amanita phalloides:

We had a burst of rain and then its been super dry - so only really boletes and a few Macrolepiota clelandii up and about: Suillus granulatus Agaricus augustus:

Hi thanks darklight. Like sweat or floral.

Although i think i prefer nuda flavour wise
