Was harvesting a bunch of chanterelles here in Texas the other day and ran into a couple of large patches of Jacks. If you’re inexperienced I guess you could confuse them, chanterelles rarely grow in large clusters and here in Texas the chanterelles have a very distinct peach / apricot smell to them, have never picked them anywhere else so I don’t know if that’s true for everywhere else. We also have the beautiful and delicious Texanesis Chanterelles which are a beautiful pink / orange / red color. Went back that night to see the Jacks glow, it was very faint but it was there. Mycology is amazing and there’s so much to learn. When I’m foraging / harvesting the feeling I can best describe it as is the feeling you got as a child when it was time to hunt Easter eggs. Love me some deep fried Chicken of the Woods too

@LazySillyDog Год назад

One time I had someone say "Hey I found a patch of chicken of the woods over there!" I go uh... OK, it shouldn't be growing out of the lawn tho I walk over and it's a huge patch of Jack's, so I told him "What?! But it looks just like chicken of the woods?" 😑

@InviableTrader 11 месяцев назад

Yeah I’m Georgia where I live you have to be careful late in the season. These jacks start showing up the moment you sense the cold coming in.

Around 25 years ago, I stumbled upon bioluminescent mushrooms, igniting a journey that led me to uncover nine bioluminescent plants and animals, along with a luminous moss, right here in the northeast. It's amazing how much wonder lies hidden in our own backyard.

@jdf585-p2g Год назад

We had a similar experience on the island of Bohol in the Philippines. We were on a rainforest night hike looking for Tarsiers when the guide told us to turn off our lights. As our eyes adjusted you could see every decaying piece of wood on the forest floor glowing the most beautiful pale blue.

first season learning mushrooms myself found my first Jacks last week they are beautiful didn't take home to see bioluminescence I should have though.

@Pollo.Rosado Год назад

Wow, these are incredible! Thanks for shedding "light" on this. While I haven't come across them before, their appearance does remind me of chanterelles yes. However, seeing them in large clusters is a giveaway that they're not edible chanterelles.

@UntamedScience Год назад

Yes, the growth habit is one key giveaway!

@jacoblamarre2521 Год назад

@@UntamedScienceI think the interior is a better differentiating feature for newer folks since chanterelles interior should be all white while the jack will be orange.

I came across one at work a few months back. (Western North Carolina) in a landscaped mulch pile that had rotten tree roots sticking out of the ground. It was right in the path employees walk to get to the back entrance but for weeks I was the only one that noticed it! I just let it be to grow until a different manager noticed and destroyed it. 😕 I got off around 12 to 1 am and loved seeing the glow.

@ConstipatedAssassin Год назад

My buddy and I found some one time and it was so much fun bringing them home and watching them glow. We took them in the bathroom with the lights off and it took me about 60 seconds for my eyes to adjust before I could see it but it took him like five minutes before he could see it and he didn’t believe me that I could see it. Then we made up a game where one person hid pieces of the mushroom somewhere around the pitch black bathroom and the other person had to find it. It sounds gay af now that I’m typing it but it was fun.

first of all chantrelle doesnt grow in such buckets. second they have much shorter stem.This lantern looks much more similar to honey fungus

@UntamedScience Год назад

Great comment. It does look much more like a honey fungus. For a new chanterelle hunter though, it's good to at least know how to tell the difference.

@wendyschutze2818 Год назад

What is the point of pulling up so many large clumps of them? Are you going to do anything good with them, or just pull them out so they die just because you choose to pull them out for no reason?

@UntamedScience Год назад

The mushroom isn't dying. I just pulled the fruiting bodies an hour or so before lawn mowers came through and mulched it all up. The body of the fungus in the mycelium is all underground and doing well!

@Ixquick979 Год назад

I ate some and didn't suffer any ill effect.

@UntamedScience Год назад

I wouldn't risk it though. There really are no upsides. Small amounts of toxin are different than large amounts too. You can also eat small amounts of almost any poison.

@wendyschutze2818 Год назад

@UntamedScience Год назад

I pulled up those clumps to look at the bioluminescence in my studio. The lawn mowers came an hour later to mulch the entire patch. Plus the body of this organism is below the surface in the roots. These mushrooms are there to spread the spores.

Thanks bud. That's right. Getting a title and thumbnail right is challenging. If the clickthrough rate isn't above 6% for the first people who come across it, it almost never gets shown to others so we test out different thumbnails the fist 24 hours and watch the analytics. Often we'll have 3-4 ready to test. Bummer that people think it's "trickery". Some of my best videos never got seen because I couldn't figure out a good thumbnail. We're just doing out job trying to get fun nature content out there. :)
