The Beginner's Guide to Mushrooms

This book is a pictorial guide to the most commonly encountered mushrooms of North America and Europe. References to “West” means west of the Rocky Mountains, and “East” is east of the Rocky Mountains. In some cases, the geographic range will be noted as restricted to the Southeast, Northeast, Midwest, or the like in North America. For Europe, general geographic restrictions, if any, will be noted as “Mediterranean,” “northern Europe,” and so on. Besides geographic location and time, this book bases identification of mushrooms on macro-characteristics of mushrooms as well as, at times, tastes and smells. It is safe to handle any mushroom—even deadly poisonous species.

Mushrooms: The Basics

There are more than 100,000 named species of fungi on the planet, though mycologists (scientists who pursue the study of fungi) suggest there are more than a million (and likely several times that number) species awaiting discovery. Fungi have a heterotrophic lifestyle, which means, like animals, they cannot create their own energy and basic cellular materials from an energy source in the environment (in contrast to plants, which can harness sunlight energy). Therefore, most fungi make a living by doing one of three things in the environment: decomposing other organic matter that was once living, parasitizing a living host (many animal and probably most plant diseases are caused by fungi), or becoming beneficial partners with other organisms, especially plants. The more we learn about fungi, the more we see that the healthy function of the natural world around us is closely tied to them.

Mushrooms: Identification

If you learn and follow the basic steps in this book, you will be well on your way to proficiency with wild mushroom identification Although this book is suitable for beginners, even experts follow these same steps when trying to figure out a wild mushroom Before you pick that mushroom: Be observant All factors are clues that you can use to make an identification What is the habitat? Temperate forest, prairie, desert, rainforest, Mediterranean, etc ? Are there trees nearby, and are they conifer, broadleaf, or a mix?

Mushroom Cultivation

Some mushrooms are mycorrhizal partners of trees and other plants, as we have discussed Mycorrhizal fungi cannot be cultivated Many other mushrooms, however, are saprobic in nature—they decompose organic material and those can be cultivated Mushroom cultivation relies on the basic principle of introducing an organism to a food source Mushrooms and other fungi digest organic material and draw that nutrition to a reproductive structure that we call a mushroom, or a fruiting body It is the reproductive part of a fungus The fungal mycelium secretes enzymes to break down the nutritious matter it encounters To cultivate mushrooms at home, you can start with a mushroom, mushroom spores, or spawn (a culture of the fungus, typically on grain or sawdust) Spawn can be purchased, and it is a great option for beginners For the advanced mycophile, there are multiple ways to make your own spawn at home, starting with a piece of mushroom or spores.
