mimzy Posted October 5, 2013 What! I thought it was waaaay too late in the season.They seem to love that pine-needle twiggy type of detritus, all my scavenging grounds are full of it. Nice find! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
obtuse Posted October 6, 2013 i wonder if this colony comes from spores having germinated and colonised that region early, and with your variable weather conditions, they were just right and triggered fruiting cycle. Did you notice any fruiting in this spot earlier in the season. curious :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myco Posted October 6, 2013 this little colony actually comes from vic myc being placed there roughly 6-8 months ago by some crazy bastard cant think of his name i hadnt noticed anything there early in the season but i was away for the bulk of winter so i couldnt really say if it had fruited earlier in the season 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sallubrious Posted October 6, 2013 If that crazy bastard ever comes to the hunter valley and spreads his magic there'd be a carton beer in it for him, the fukken things just don't grow here. Are they Acacia phyllodes I can see ? They almost look acuminate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idiot Posted October 12, 2013 Myco I heard in the past that there are some patches close to Curtin uni. There are some dirt bike tracks close to Lake Pinjar which is covered by tall pine trees. Also when you're driving to Yanchep, there are massive forestry sites on your left side which are all pine trees. This is just in case your crazy friend was interested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Subs will only grow in Perth if you have the right micro climate created which is hard unless you are in the hills. In Perth you will have to hand water. Even then, the patches are no where near uber and the fruits are small compared to down south 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
