this is an awesome video. I have learned a lot from it! thank you for taking the time to educate us, it is very appreciated 🤟
this was a great video, very informative and presented extremely well!
I learned a lot from this video!!
thank you.
Extremely informative. Much appreciated!
Great video thank you!
Excellent video…thank you!
This was awesome to watch.
Love to see how the same mushroom looks over time, thank you!
I knew you guys were on High Knob. We research Sasquatch on High Knob and have been since 2015. We have a cabin on the Scott county side near Devil's Bathtub. Great video. I saw the Labyrinth in your open. I would love to go out with you guys one day to educate myself on Mushrooms. Awesome work guys!!!
A. muscaria and her variants shouldn't really be on this list. People have eaten them in soups, stews, grilled, as medicines, topicals for skin ailments, mild pain killer, and, of course, micro-dosing and macro-dosing. You can't say those things about anything else on your list.
If you say, "Well it is poisonous, until you cook or process it." than that logic would apply to potatoes, cassava, lima and kidneys beans, and a bunch of other things people eat daily. If you eat a raw potato without cooking or processing it, you'll get sick. No one puts potatoes the list of vegetables that are poisonous.
Can you tell me a little about this A. muscaria mushroom please. Thank you ❤
Morels will mess you up too.

Yes. It's edible if boiled in water until all of the color is leeched out, discard the water then use it for whatever you want. I would not feed any to young kids or eat a lot though, maybe 1 medium mushroom each for adults, it may still have some "toxins" (the toxins are muscimol and ibotenic acid, both psychoactive) in it.
The far, far more common usage of A. Muscaria is as an inebriant and medicine though. It has never been consumed as a food on a wide scale. Historically was very popular in Eastern and Northern Europe, but it lost a lot of its popularity in the 20th century. I think the increased alcohol production and ease of access caused that, as in the past Amanitas would have been an easier way for peasants to get drunk than alcohol was.
To prepare it as an inebriant you simmer it in water for around 20 minutes, and the mushrooms should lose all their color while the water becomes red/orange/yellow. Then you drink it. It produces many of the same effects as alcohol and ambien (its very similar to Ambien), so it can be used to get drunk, as a painkiller, sleep aid, or anxiolytic. Also its not hepatotoxic and thus won't kill your liver which is nice, but you can still overdose.
If you ever consume it, make sure you figure out what Amanita species grow in your area. There are some regions (U.S.A south in particular) that have similar look alike species which probably won't kill or harm you, but they're under researched and the edibility is unknown. The species that grows in America is technically known as amanita chrysoblema, its different from the European ones but it's functionally the same use wise.
I collected a bunch and made medicine and dinner! Prep is everything for A. MUSCARIA
@sheanavanhoorebeke3551 we just posted our Muacaria hunt on IG the other day. They muscaria are so beautiful. I make a broth out of the caps and detoxed the bottoms for food
Absolutely Amazing Video. I want you to know that you may have just saved my life. At this very moment in my kitchen sits a destroying angel 😮 that I picked yesterday. I always do my research before I eat any mushroom I pick. I have to say this has been the best, most educational video I've seen so far. Thank You for sharing. 😊
wait, you always do your research, but you picked a deadly mushroom?
I picked the mushroom then once I got home I started looking into what exactly I just picked. I take a bunch of pictures and watch a ton of videos. That's actually why I was watching this video. I was doing my research before I ate a poisonous 🍄 😏
Very informative, thanks.

Thank you.
What a great video
I've eaten cooked amanitas muscaria many times. a piece about the size of four fingers cooked is about as much as I would recommend. Definitely a unique experience.
Good morning! Doing my yearly brush-up for mushroom identification. You've got my sub! Can you tell me where you got your 5% Potassium Hydroxide from?
I bought a bottle of Potassium Hydroxide flakes on Amazon and made my own with distilled water. I've got a video on my TikTok showing that process. I should probably do one for TH-cam as well 😁
@@TheWildernessPerspective That would be fantastic actually. It's going to be a wild mushroom season here in the north east since we got drowned in rain.
The marvelous, mysterious, sometimes deadly fungi…

Never eat little brown mushrooms. Always get a great couple of good mushroom books and always do a spore print on white printer paper for those mushrooms you are not familiar with.
I enjoyed your video. I live in Northwest Alabama and in a cow pasture are mushrooms that only grow in old cow manure. But, the spore print is black. They kind of look like cubensis, light brownish, but spore prints are black. And squeezed stems turn more black than blue. Any idea what these are? I'm certainly not going to eat them, but am curious.
Without seeing them I can only guess. A black spore print on manure could be something in Panaeolus. There is still a possibility of Psilocybe, but again, I can't be certain.
a lot of farmers that I know personally use different fungicides for their livestock & the psilocybes are by no means immune from them. BUT, they very well could be cubensis, never-the-less. i'd say there's only one way to find out 😁😂
Other destroying angels in eastern North America include Amanita amerivirosa which stains yellow with KoH like A. bisporigera and Amanita elliptosperma which does not stain yellow with KoH and has pinkish gills
General rule of thumb if there's no purple spore print and greenish blueish bruising its not worth even looking at to try to identify. Preferably youd find them also in an open field or wood mulch. That's what I go by.
@@MrChris7582 your comment appears to refer to psychoactive fungi and totally neglects those who want to pick mushrooms for food, medicine, or science. Because one group of mushrooms is your preferred choice does not mean that it is everyone's preferred choice. I'm sure you did not mean to make a blanket statement for all foragers but the language in your comment comes off that way. All fungi are worth picking and looking at in my opinion.
@@TheWildernessPerspective I was just talking about my self. if you can pick it in nature it's legal. also shamanic mushrooms are healing study after study shows it helps ptsd depression anxiety end of life syndrome. and even taken sub psychological doses makes you more creative and engaged in work.
Muscarine in muscaria is in “trace amounts”. Toxicity ascribed to it are more likely ibotenic acid.
Great video man!
The more videos I watch about mushrooms, the less I know about mushrooms...
I’m picking mushrooms for 6 yr now only ones at beginning I pick bad one and eat. Now I know many good ones and picking only them .Like many mushroom hunters say “ every mushroom eatable ones”,and I add “you may never eat them second time 😅”. Very good explanation you have.
0:54 what are those mushrooms? I found something similar and I’m trying to learn more about it.
Specifically the one on the left with the milky sap
It's going to be some type of Lactarius/Lactifluus in the Russulaceae. They range from edible to highly acrid (spicy) based on the species.i didn't document individual finds that day it looks like.
Thanks!
I would like to point out that there are tons of importantly, skilled, laborers coming in from the "East" who have backgrounds in mycology; it's very important that we get this information out to new Americans, so that we can importantly have sustainable mycological ecosystems, better local produce, and, most importantly, respect and avoid disturbing poisonous colonies. Which are badass, so badass. If I ever see one, I'm just going to sit with it for a while.
stipe of pseudosperma hollow? partial veil when young?
Question, are you located in Southwest Virginia???
Yes!
If you have FaceBook, I started a local mushroom club with a UPike professor friend of mine from Kentucky. Look up "Central Appalachian Mycological Society". I would like for the next event that we have to be in NE Tennessee. Maybe I can get permission to do a hike at Bays Mountain in Kingsport.
Are there any poisonous mushrooms with spines? I read that there aren't any from Google(not that it's the best resource).
When you say spines, are you referring to the spines on the underside of the mushroom like a Hedgehog mushroom?
If so, I can't think of any off the top of my head. Sarcodon, Phellodon, Hydnum, Hydnellum, Hericium, Auriscalpium, Climacodon, Donkia, and Pseudohydnum are some common fungi genera with spines...some of them are bitter, mealy, or acrid (spicy) on a taste and spit test and would likely not be palatable. Others are tough and woody. Others still have not been studied enough to perhaps know of edibility.
Ever heard of a mushroom growing under water? I found three mushrooms growing in a bucket with a little debris in it and a bunch of water. They look like jelly and the gills have the same smooth texture as the jelly like body but it kind of resembles a mini chanterelle.
Toxicity of amanita mascaria is highly overstated and are in over dose. It’s a highly valuable medicine. In over dose it can cause cramping. So don’t do that. I’m working to try to get it out of the “poisonous” and into the medicinal. All medicines have doses and side effects with too much.
I assume it is safe to handle these if you are doing that in this video. We were thought to never touch any mushroom. My children and I love to find mushrooms on our hikes but never handle them. But I would love to dive further in identifying them. Do we need to worry about handling any mushrooms or just ingesting them?
Hey. Most mushrooms give no effect when handled. You should be fine to pick most mushrooms, but do your own research on your area before picking any fungus in the wild. 🙂
Yes, as Persimmon mentioned, fungi are safe to touch. There are some recorded instances of people getting rashes from touching slimy mushrooms. They likely had sensitive skin.
@MrFelixsmommy, I just would like to add that while wild mushrooms are O.K. to touch and handle, just don't rub your eye(s) afterword. The residue may sting your eye (s). I don't think you'd go blind (never herd of it), it's just irritating when the eye stings. Carrying small damp cloth or moist wipes would keep hands clean enough to explore and touch 🙂
I found a Destroying Angel under the oak tree in my front yard. It was such a beautiful, perfect, snow-white mushroom. But I removed and discarded it. (Didn't want anyone or anyone's pet to try eating it.)
Amanita some KOH
👍👍👍
As a child growing up in the South my parents gave me an up close and personal view of a death’s head with gruesome accompanying description if what it would do to me. I was impressed and fascinated…would spend hours examining them in the ground from all sides…
I’m in Maine seeing the most beautiful mushrooms, however there all covered in like a clear sticky liquid,WTH? Some Alice in Wonderland type stuff!
@@UppinMaine I think I’d pass on eating them, lol!
sharon you shuld visit Poland there is so many kinds of mushrooms to see
I guess it's a good thing that my dog won't eat anything that's not meat or fat. Won't even eat a vegetable if it's smothered in bacon fat.
Yellow Amanita Muscaria (Guessowii) is bad, Red Amanita Muscaria is not food but medicine. Red has been used by humans and animals forever, just nowadays something with good side effects is bad for you.
Guessoweii is also used as a medicine and edible with certain preparation. :)
Soon it will be known as Amanita chrysoblema
Can you tell me more about this mushroom that you say is used for medicine. Thank you ❤
It’s funny how the closed captioning is way off and calls *VOLVA* a ❌vulva❌, which we know it is not.
A friend of my sister went looking for magic mushrooms in east Texas only to eat a poisonous mushroom that damaged his liver .
That's why your do your homework in mycology..
They all look so delicious

if you dont know dont eat
… why u picking it up when its poisonous
With fungi, there is no danger in handling toxic species. The toxins are not absorbed through the skin or with even a chew and spit test. The toxins themselves need to be ingested and/or metabolized to cause danger/damage.
I will add that the same is not true for plants or animals. Some of them have toxins that CAN be absorbed through the skin if handled or even chewed and spit out.
Lucerferin (sp) was reported in the mRNA shot....
Also Bigfoot turns u to a ham sandwich when ur mushroom picking loll
That jack of lantern fungus also glows at night. I saw those in Florida.
There is another species in Florida called Omphalotus subilludens
That must be why he said they glow in the dark in the video. Crazy.
Stype And Vail to be politically correct 😂😂
"In the United States, mushroom poisoning kills an average of about 3 people a year." Sure sounds like it's blown out of proportions for some good youtube content.
