>>11536774>panther caps aren't the only brown ones with spots>I no longer trust them, I threw the old stuff into the fireHow so? I thought Panther Caps were pretty obvious. The Amanita Genus is pretty much impossible to mistake and there aren't any deadly mushrooms with that color and spotted pattern. The only similar one is Amanita Rubescens, but it's an edible as long as it's cooked (

Parasol mushrooms are pretty easy to get. Got some huge ones some years. This year I'd like to get a few Lion's Mane and Reishis.
Reishi is quite an interesting one, you would love it if you haven't looked it up. It has lots of interesting compounds that are a little hard to extract but very beneficial for health improvement. You may want to try it, the tea gives you a very nice calming feeling but it's pretty tedious to make (slow boil for >1hour).
Picture I think it's Amanita Gemmata, but I'm unsure so I never picked them up. Edible if true and pretty common in my area.
