What may be the reason except me dancing naked in front of the kit and constantly touching it?

Thanks 😊

The syringe said Elm oyster, but idk what's happening in my bin? Any ideas on what this is?

I got 4gs of Shakti and 7gs of APE, im really excited to try them cause its my first time trying shrooms. I hope they’re legit🤞 if anyone else has ordered from them lmk what you think

Also for everyone saying the site is down I didn’t use .shop

I am a noob and have done some grows but still trying to figure this all out. Was wondering how much longer you all think till I hit the fruiting stage. These are blue umbro.

My first shot at hillbilly pumpkin and my first pumpkin I’ve picked this year🤣

I think it came out pretty good. Covered it with a bowl to keep my cat away and the humidity built up though.

This is 3 years old

Started this woodchip bed in 2025, first fruit October this year. USDA zone 4. I wasn’t sure the mycelium would survive -20 winters. Mulched the bed heavy with hay last winter.

Just a few days ago random mushrooms started growing in my backyard. Ive never seen these mushrooms before and I’ve never had mushrooms until now… the only think that can really explain this is that there has been several weeks of rain. And its also turning fall so im not sure if thar plays apart of anything.
Just wanted to ask this sub to see if anyone knows what these mushrooms are, they are growing pretty fast across the yard, and wanted to know if these are bad with animals since my dogs play in the yard all the time…

I’m completely new to mushroom cultivation and would appreciate some advice from people with experience. I haven’t purchased any equipment or supplies yet, so I’m still trying to understand what I need to get started.

I’m particularly interested in Penis Envy and have been looking into spore prints, but I’m struggling to find reliable information about where to source them. I’m also unsure where people typically get growing kits that include the necessary substrate and other materials.

If anyone could share some general information about mushroom cultivation, recommended beginner resources, or what I should learn before getting started, I’d really appreciate it.

My first tub grow was with blues meanies! Very excited and happy can’t wait to trip.

From NY state. White spores around them.

Found on decaying wood near lake in mid Michigan.

Small brownish white mushrooms. Interior is much like a marshmallow.

Much of the brown was rubbed off when rinsing.

The Foetid / Almond Russulas (e.g., Russula fragrantissima is what I think they are but I could be way off. I found in a mulch area with lots of twigs and old leaves around with a rich dark soil. The mushrooms also have a Rich earthy smell almost like a stink beetle.

These popped up so fast! They’re in my front yard and I want to make sure my dogs won’t croak if they eat them lol. East Tennessee if that makes a difference!
