Old Man of the Woods

Strobilomyces sp.

This shaggy, dusky mushroom is in the bolete family and can be hard to find because it often blends in with leaf litter or pinecones.

I really goofed up huh? So I'm a day behind, this is actually day 5 but apparently I can't count and put 6 lol. I guess I also didn't get a pic of the drawing before I painted it. I'm trying out different styles with these so I went with a sort of old botanical illustration style for this one. I am uhhh not good at calligraphy haha. I should have also made this more gray and less brown. I was trying to show the staining but that didn't really work out. 🍄

you are my new favourite tumblr person

a cruel question: what's your favourite fungus? or your top 2.2 to 3.8 million favourite species...

Aw, thanks, fellow tumblr person!

A cruel question indeed. I appreciate the alternative option for listening several million. 😆 But I think I can manage with three. No, four. No, two. I'll do two.

1. Black Trumpet (Craterellus fallax)

The first edible mushroom I ever foraged with a delightful goth aesthetic. It's pretty hard to mistake this mushroom for something else, but I was still terrified to eat it. First time round, anyway.

2. Old Man of the Woods (Strobilomyces strobilaceus... Or "floccopus" depending on who you ask, I think both are great)

Such a friendly shroom, and I'm always so happy to see it. And also boop it because it is very soft and boopable. It's like if a Newfoundland were a mushroom.

Thanks for asking!

I'd like to learn how to identify edible-vs- toxic mushrooms...

I believe, it's a skill acquired with time. You can use the internet, books, apps, the knowledge of other people to learn mushrooms.

There are thousands of mushroom species, so, I think, first you have to learn your local edible mushrooms. Whenever you're not sure what it is, even with slightest doubt - do not take it.

Probably, one the best and most nutritious of edible mushrooms are boletes. There are many species and subspecies of these guys (boletus, leccinum, suillus, xerocomus), most of them are edible.

(Boletus radicans, Boletus calopus, Tylopilus felleus are bitter. Porphyrellus porphyrosporus, Strobilomyces strobilaceus are also inedible. Boletus satanas is toxic.)

Then there are chanterelles:

Parasol mushrooms:

Chicken of the woods:

Honey fungi:

A lot of russula species are edible but they're not too nutritious and some of them can make you sick.

Lactarius sp. are edible, too, but then again woolly milkcap can be slightly toxic, if not prepared properly. Some of lactarius mushrooms are said to have carcinogens in them.

In the end, you have to study the mushrooms. Read about them, look at the photos and videos from every possible angle, learn about the stipe, the gills, the pores, the color, the smell. Don't go mushroom hunting alone, if you have no previous experience whatsoever.

(Also, here's a related ask some time ago.)

Woman of the Woods

She blush when we touch her 😳 Don't eat her ! She's prettier than she tastes. She belongs to the Woods, not your plate. I'm serious !

This was a warm-up for #Funguary2024. I sketched it my sketchbook before transferring it to the digital world, where i painted it. 😊

I hope you like it !

Inspiration : The mushroom Strobilomyces strobilaceus - "Old Man of the Woods" - "Bolet Pomme de Pin"

Photo

The Hermit. Art by Joseph Buckley, from The Mushroom Hunter's Tarot.

Pictured here is Strobilomyces strobilaceaus, commonly known as the Old Man of the Woods. Its woolly coat makes this a very unusual mushroom among mushrooms, and it often grows alone. As the name implies, the Old Man of the Woods is found in the woods, of low mountain ranges and alpine areas. With its tattered brown coat and sometimes hunched posture, it’s easy to imagine this mushroom wandering forests and climbing high peaks in search of the quiet and solitude it desires. When you see the Old Man it’s a sign that it may be time to step back a little, retreat from the world to rest, reflect, and reset.

Keywords: Quiet, solitude, soul-searching, wisdom

Old Man of the Woods!

Strobilomyces floccopus aka Strobilomyces strobilaceus

Found: July 22, 2023

Dark tufts on the cap, wooly/shaggy-looking all over. Polypore underside; it's a Bolete.

Turns pinkish-reddish when cut! Gradually becomes much darker. This one had little worms in it which is why some of the inside is dark. Another interesting thing I noticed is how parts of the cap turned black when exposed to water.

It's a micorrhizal mushroom, so it creates a relationship with a live plant that they both benefit from, allowing them both better access to nutrients.

Spore print.

Keeping an eye on these outdoor gray oysters as they start pinning and making mushrooms.

Also, mycelium time lapse is happening ^

I'm currently working with shiitake and winecap for the first time so thats exciting too, (for me anyway lol)

Starting spawn plugs soon, of Chicken of the woods and Shiitake.

Also also, I got a culture going from spore, of an unidentified little brown mushroom I collected out of the yard. I'm going to try and get them to fruit, just out of curiosity.

Strobilomyces is another one that I want to cultivate out of curiosity, for photos and time lapses. ⬇️
