anyone planning on picking mushrooms this autumn and know any fruitful locations in easy reach from London? thx |

the woods, post rainfall. you don't really need anything more specific than that. mushroom foraging is great, but be sure to have a guide (pocket or person) to ID the shrooms. usually we didn't end up eating what we picked anyway, but a skillet, butter, and a bit of salt is all you need for wild mushies. |

thanks for the advice. I actually picked loads this time last year from a really good spot, but have since moved away. I'm not sure the particular variety I'm after grows in woodland though |

Watch out for in particular. Some kids have died eating it raw, apparently. You're not a kid are you? Good, don't worry, then. :) |

your late down south man! up in scotland i been harvesting since mid-late august! dont know any spots down in london but if you head over to devon on a mega bus and get to Hay torr (check spelling) near Bovey Tracy or any where ovcer dartmoor picking should be rife. |

yeah its gutting living in a city. I used to live in surrey and one park I know was absolutely rife, probably got about 500g last year. think I'm going to have to go the grow-kit route. haven't got the time and money to be mega-bussing off to Devon, much as I'd love to. with regards to Fly Agaric you do have to be careful. you can eat them if you dry them out but it will make you feel pretty sick. the trip is different to a psilocybin mushroom-trip as well. luckily in Britain, as far as I know, there are only two deadly-poisonous types of mushroom and neither of them look remotely similar to liberty caps. whenever picking though, it always pays to remember the old adage: "its better to sort your collection in the field than in the hospital" |
