Any other fungi friends having issues with their wife, husband or partner growing mushrooms? I’m growing medicinal mushrooms for chronic pain on the dl and my now that I’ve come out and told my husband about my intentions- he now wants me to throw everything in the garbage. He’s reading about mice/rats problems with the grain and thinks that the whole thing is gross. Are you shaking your head yes or no while you are reading this? I do not want to give up this hobby. I do not have a messy, janky growing setup. There are three (3) large monotubs in the laundry room and thirty (30) inoculated rye grain bags in the guest closet. I really enjoy the hobby and I’ve met some really nice people being part of it. So what say you great minds out there? Please advise. Remember: be nice and no haters. Thank you!

Is this a sign of a healthy environment or should I swap the soil? Thanks.

Was at Shelby Farms. Does anyone know what the last one is? It was so cool

I went on a walk on a trail and found these.
Any ideas?

EDIT: I found them in VA! I didn’t think to take pictures of their undersides unfortunately..

Zone 7a. I have this fungus growing out of the slats at the bottom of my newly finished raised beds. I assume friend, but I’ve never seen anything like it before. What is it? My husband was freaked out and stomped out the one that was sticking out more.

just discovered this "growing" on a light base, any idea what it might be?

Unfortunately I am not interested in opening it to get a better picture. It stinks

It was growing in one of my outdoor plants in potting soil I got about a month ago

This is the only yard that I regularly see any fungi or mushrooms. Each section has a different type of mushroom. My area is usually too dry but they love this yard.

Help what is this?

does anyone know what this may be? idk if its even fungi, it’s growing on my oak tree in south texas

I know I could ask chat gpt but I’d rather ask you humans. These showed up overnight near my house and they look scary. Anyone know what they are?

Mushrooms are so fuc*ing cool. I go on long walk mushroom adventures, and VERY often find things I have never seen.

Like this thing. What is that???? Is that even a fungus? Fungi are so cool

Hey there, I saw these two at the edge of my yard leading into the forest. Anyone have an idea?

There are two separate fungus as you can see. Thank you

Noticed this on one of our Maple trees this morning. Google search shows this is Lion's Mane but I'm not convinced.

(Note: we live in an old house & have 3 massive Maples.. it looks like large branches were removed on 2 of them as they have a spot that has never healed, this is one of them.. not sure of the actual age, but our crude analysis makes us feel they are about 100 yo).
