40% of greenhouse gas emissions come from the construction and operation of buildings. (!!)
Here’s a cool article about a UK architecture firm hoping to help change that – by creating environmentally friendly biodegradable building blocks out of mycelium.
The future is fungal! 🍄 😁

That's it for now. Next steps are:
- Modify the irrigation to make it more efficient and stop leaks
- Erect plant supports
- Erect fencing
- Add flowering plants to attract pollinators
- Build and fill a third garden bed, what to grow? (Use for #composting or #mushrooms?)
- Work on one of more #arduino-based solar "weather stations" to collect data on sunlight, rainfall, soil moisture, temperature, etc.

2🪡 I've tried #mushroom and truffle soups, purees, chocolates (with *those* 'shrooms), even #vegan calamari.
I gag with every one of them.
Today I learned that humans and fungi share nearly 50% of our #DNA, and now I finally understand why I refuse to eat them.
🍄 I am half mushroom. 🍄
To eat fungi would be cannibalism, and as a vegan, I simply could not abide by that.

A 🧵 about #mushrooms...
1🪡 I am a #vegan, and I don't eat #fungi.
Not for ethical reasons but because I've always found them physically repulsive, much like meat. I spent decades trying to force myself, like a good little vegan, to be grateful for the giant portabello so many hosts have gleefully handed me.
I just went for a walk and found something very strange. Do any of you know what these are? Maybe a slime mold, maye a jelly fungus but I really don't know.

So, over the past 10 days I've managed to post photos of fungi in every single colour. Alls that left are those without much colour at all. Transparent and semitransparent fungi!
For anyone who's interested, I have published every species I've found on my land at https://www.tasforest.com/intheforest/Fungi/ - currently 200ish species.
By the way, blue was the most popular colour, followed by black/grey and then pink.

This week's #TopChef challenge was mushrooms, one of my favorite foods! I didn't have a lot of time to cook this weekend so made a recipe I've made before, Herbed Mushroom Spoon Bread from Tanya Holland's cookbook Brown Sugar Kitchen. I think I overcooked it a little but it's a really good recipe. Like a cornbread soufflé! YUM

Asking the neighbours across the street if they want these beauties.
I don't know why all of them didn't get large — probably because the patch has produced so many so quickly.
I think it and I both need a rest.
Bring on the chestnut mushrooms and the black pearl king oysters.

Bonus photo of shaggy taken from underneath. I'm not sure whether the red liquid came from the fungus of the log it's growing from. This is a splitgill mushroom - Schizophyllum commune - and will look very different if it lives to maturity (something already ate half of it)

Bountiful harvest today!

Another angle on yesterday's Ganoderma. This is a patch of gravel outside our kitchen door where this mushroom has been fruiting yearly since I moved here. The patch last year was massive.
Unlike previous specimens, these have short stems, which G. sessile normally lacks. But here's Michael Kuo on that subject:
"Ganoderma sessile can be confused with several similar North American species—especially Ganoderma curtisii. Ostensibly, the latter species has a fairly well-developed stem, while Ganoderma sessile does not ("sessile," by the way, is Mycologese for "without a stem"). However, both species are fully capable of breaking the stem rules, and do so often."

I noticed these fresh little puffballs from a distance under some oaks. They looked like white marbles scattered on the ground. As I approached, a squirrel scampered in and snagged one, scurried up the tree and sat on a branch, eating it like an apple.
Common Puffball (?)
#fungi #mushrooms #Texas #nature
#ForestForensics: the answer revealed! actually, it sort of revealed itself today: it is a Phallus multicolor!
the phallus multicolor forms a hairy ball first, which then cracks like an egg, revealing a slimy egg inside, then it'll make a phallus wearing a little skirt. so yea. she does it all! ;)

suppose you take #cardboard #trash and cut it and glue it into a cube. then you put some soil in the cube and do some kind of experiment. You could grow #worms, do a compost, grow #mushrooms build a battery from trash, grow the beginning of a tree, and possibly stack the cube with other cubes in a whole system of cubes. then you take videos of your results and put them all on a #peertube instance you host on laptops from the trash. You replicate this to millions of people, all hosting peer tube instances and uploading video results of their soil in trash cube experiments. that's a lot of data on what we can do with soil in cubes. we have goals we want from this, vegetables and mushrooms to grow, systems to get working. We can create algorithms which read in the video data and crunch on it to create summaries which people can use as a feedback loop to get the cubes working like they want. initially, this "#algorithm" is just #gardening enthusiasts watching and making their own videos. But as we scale we can add more trash servers which host software that automates more and more of the tasks.
this would be the internet of #soil.

Good morning. 🍄🍄🍄
Before we moved to Louisiana, I had never seen an alligator in the wild. Then we drove south down towards the coast and there were many of them. Friends tell me they are in the freshwater lakes around where I live. But I've not seen one. There is even a small lake nearby named Alligator Lake, though again, I've not seen an alligator at Alligator Lake. True, just because I haven't seen them doesn't mean that they aren't there.
It's a little like that college introductory course in philosophy: What is it to know? I don't really know they are there; I only believe they are there because other people said so. When I say I know something, often, what I actually mean is I've seen enough evidence to believe it is true. I do know that I'm sitting in my office with Ben curled up next to my chair.

These things are a bit weird. White Basket Fungus (Ileodictyon cibarium), growing under a pine tree. Why do so many fungi fruit near conifers - is it soil acidity from the dropped needles?

Check out my series of small collage/paintings for Game of Shrooms this year! For those not in the know, it’s a worldwide game where artists hide mushroom art on June 10 for anyone to find. I am really happy with how these game out. I am going to keep 1 but will hide the other 14 in Oakland & Berkeley. There will be hints on where on my art Instagram squid.redsage. Do you want to hide or find some art? https://yumfactory.com/gameofshrooms/

At the New Zealand fungal foray last week I tried a new (to me) style of mushroom photography, shooting on a white background for a 'technical scientific' representation rather than in the field.
This is the 'truffle like' mushroom Rossbeevera pachydermis named after my late colleague Ross Beever. I sliced it in half for the photo to show the inside spore mass.
You can see the field photo here: https://inaturalist.nz/observations/163045252

Dryad's saddle (Cerioporus squamosus) has stepped up after the morels stopped fruiting. This photo is chunks from several that were high up in a poplar snag. I used a long stick to knock it out of the poplar. It came down in pieces, but it was all young enough to fry in butter and serve with a side of noodles. #FungiFriday #fungi #mushrooms #athensohio
These tiny, orange brown umbrella shaped mushrooms were sprouting all over this dead, damp, decayed log on the Speed River Trail in Guelph Ontario Canada. The fall season is a great time for discovering mushrooms of all kinds hiding in the forest.

"A cluster of giant mushrooms has popped up at Cockatoo Lake Recreation Reserve near Naracoorte in regional South Australia to the delight of residents.
The mushrooms are believed to be large boletes, Phlebopus marginatus, which are not commonly reported in regional South Australia.
Boletes are considered to be Australia's largest terrestrial mushroom and usually appear after soaking rains during autumn." #Australia #SouthAustralia #mushrooms #fungi #Naracoorte #boletes

Mushrooms are quite addictive to make and I have the urge to add eyes to the next batch
As some of you may recall, I started offering mobile wallpaper as a win-win way to get something fun and support what I do in lieu of a Ko-Fi and all that. The first two haven't been runaway hits per se but there's been enough interest to think it's a fair idea to continue to add more options. ❤️
So I hope you might enjoy seeing the latest choice!

Asking those who know mushrooms: are these all the same type, in different life stages, or are they different mushrooms altogether?
**Edit: I am told these are inky caps, and that they can be used for making ink. I'm ridiculously eager to try that. (Thank you, @JoBlakely)

Hope you have great plans for the weekend. I'm going to be preparing my studio for major repairs and renovations will have to close for 5 or 6 days while this is going on from next weekend. So, if you need anything for gifts, order over the next few days so I can get it sent off to you before I shut shop.
