-RC- Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 Worth remembering that mushrooms need a bit of time to come up after rain. The next 2 - 3 days should show a few flushes around the traps. A lot of panaelous antillarum around which tend to be a bit of a precursor to the psychoactive fungi up this way. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panaeolus_antillarum Similar, but no bruising blue, and no golden touch on the umbo. The stem is generally more substantial and brittle than the cyans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampdonkey Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 You where right man still a little too early. Bunch of panaelous antillarum flushing all around so that’s a good start at least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 Yeah, I've found that some lands yield quicker than others. They tend to be flatter overall with a nearby water course, which means the water table is generally higher there. Slopes tend to run the water off, particularly after big dry spells, and will need a pretty comprehensive soak before they'll flush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampdonkey Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Did you have any luck today or are you planning to go out in the next day or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 Tomorrow and Monday look to be the go I reckon. I tend to go out regardless just to get an idea of the saturation and where the creeks are at as far as water goes. We've had some nice sunny breaks today in between showers which is perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampdonkey Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Will definitely be going out again tomorrow, This is from my last success on the tail end of last season. Hope I'm more lucky this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 Luck? Pffft, you seek, you find mate It is fucking teeming down atm. Defo worth a look tomorrow if you have the time and inclination... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 18, 2020 Author Share Posted January 18, 2020 Pans and a truckload of antillarum seem to be the order of the day. A few cube pins, so the next few days should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampdonkey Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Think the cubes will start to flush once it warms up today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 19, 2020 Author Share Posted January 19, 2020 Hmmm, I would personally hold until tomorrow, but it is certainly likely that they will push through and open up through the day, particularly in the heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-RC- Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 If this rain keeps up it should be quite interesting over the next few days... just need that soggy underfoot scenario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampdonkey Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 These afternoon storms are working a treat I feel good things coming shortly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 A handful of cyans flushing, along with a shitload of antillarum. The water table is still too low for mind, and whilst the showers are good, we really need a solid 200mm in a day to really bring it up 'cos it's been super dry for quite a while. Bring on the squelch squelch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro99 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Not much rain since.. Guessing no action out there, worth a look this public holiday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-RC- Posted January 26, 2020 Author Share Posted January 26, 2020 Patience is the order of the day here. It is definitely coming, but we need heaps of rain yet 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Gatherer Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 No cubes for me yet and only a hand full of pans this year. And having bad timing with work hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Gatherer Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I just got home from work and we seem to be getting a decent amount of rain up here (Maleny) today. Fingers crossed.
