This channel was recommended recently after I had started watching some mycology videos. I love the long form videos. I don’t leave the 10 minute vids feeling satisfied.
Aaron should start a new series on "How to train your dog to be like Gunner" ... his mushrooms videos are nice enough for people like me, but everybody else would love to have a well-behaved dog like that !
This was great! I enjoyed starting in the forest and ending in the lab! I hope you continue to share your microscopy sessions, I personally find it fascinating. Give the doggo a treat for me!
Loved it! This is the first time I've seen spores and gills under a microscope. I've watched lots of videos where people collect mushrooms for study, but the videos always end in the field.
Thanks for your work shooting, editing and excellent content to educate the local mushroom hunters in the PNW. Your information is great and much appreciated by those of us leaning all of the different mushrooms from the Pacific to the Cascades.
very interesting video. I love the tour, the foraging kit and a quick guide to microscopy. I live in the PNW as well. Will continue to watch your videos.
Thank you Aaron, learn a lot about mycology from your channel and in this video I learned about microscopy which is a subject I’ve been wondering about, and I found this video very helpful so thanks again.
Thanks for showing the microscopy. I have done some of this myself with no formal training, just out of curiosity. Very much like to learn more about them.
Brilliant Aaron thanks, I wasn't expecting the microscopy at the end, I've a microscope and use it for soil biology, its getting more use now, just need some mushrooms, weather has been all over the place here in Ireland, it's the Schumann Resonance look into it, starting to ice up now hopefully they appear, every day is a school day, much love from Ireland.
anyone else stick around for the ambient chillout music interludes... mushrooms seem to be much the same as usual, but the tunes seem to be taking on a life of their own for the first time?
I wish I could get out and hunt mushrooms but Maine is a frozen tundra in winter. Morels are so incredibly rare here and I've never found them. Some say they are here, but I've been a hunter for years and I've never found them. I have a feeling I will have to travel somewhere else to hunt Morels. I hope to find some when I hike the AT next year.
Send all golden chants to the east coast my way😊. So jealous seeing fresh chanterelles in December! Think they’ve been long gone around here for months…
Man I love your channel! I'm down in Mendocino California so I'm getting the same mushrooms you are up there, only it's not quite as wet and it sure has been a weird autumn Here as well. I've identified so many more mushrooms thanks to your channel. I was wondering if I could send you pictures via email and see if you can identify some of the ones that don't come up on your travels and are not in the book? If you do ever include a cooking portion of your channel I think it will bolster your subscriber count alot. People are crazy for cooking and a lot of those mushrooms require a different approach from one to the other as you know. Keep up the good work and happy hunting.
Thanks. I am hoping soon to find the time to put in cooking episodes, I was actually a chef for a number of years, cooking is one of my passions, and it's always been something I want to do. It just takes an awful lot of time to go forage and then come home and set up everything and shoot the video, I have a construction company and a busy family life so it makes it tricky but hopefully, if the channel keeps doing good I'll be able to leave behind my day job and focus on doing things like cooking videos, microscopy videos, and all kinds of project ideas that I have. I am pretty busy as I stated, and my inboxes are usually pretty jam-packed, so I might not be good for ID on a personal level, but join mushrooms of Mendocino, I'm on that page. Really good identification page. Also the Pacific Northwest mushroom identification forum on Facebook is a great place. I think so much for watching, feedback like this keeps me going! 🍄🤙
is there any chance that any of the harsher chemicals use in the newspaper of polluting the mushroom or does the mushroom do a pretty good job at filtering all that stuff out?
Can you please put out some information on Deer Truffles and the Oregon black Truffles. And if the Deer Truffles are edible or desired. Thanks for all the information you put in your videos and the time you take to explain. Stay safe. Ever pick south Pacific county?
Reishi It is called the lacquered conch because it really has a lacquered shininess to it. When they're young they look like candy corn. They're a bit softer and they only grow for one growing season rather than year-round for several years.
Hello from 🇭🇷 Croatia , man i love to see more of this closes or thru microscope but active,🍄🏞️ . Know that people asking lot of this stuff but this is important and interested. And if you can do difference between Psy.Bohemica.arcana.serbica vs . Psy.Azuresenc. Because I think that this is very close spaces and I don't have microscope 🔬 that strong but seriously, love to hear your thoughts on this topic.Thanx you are doing great job.🌎🌍☮️🎴🍄🔬🌞📸👽👁️✌️🐾🇭🇷🍄🇺🇸 Happy holidays.
