Most of the time what your are doing is illegal plus you are tresspassing and sometimes damaging private property.

Farmers and locals of the area hate people like you.
Totally disagree!!
Depends how you go about it. Last few days resulted in a good 1kg haul, which is currently being put to good use, dried and chopped etc. Our encounters with locals were quite pleasant to say the least. We drove very slowly, didn't leave any rubbish and definitely did not damage fence lines, etc. so they had no reason to 'hate' us. One family invited us in for a cup of tea and advised us to check further up the track near the pine trees, and another lady came home as we were crawling around her front yard- she only asked to have a look, quite impressed at the size of some of them she suggested a spot behind the general store of the next town.

We were straight up, 'we are here to pick mushrooms', and no-one seemed offended or otherwise upset- we left no rubbish, no loud music and we were as friendly and polite as was expected.

Thinking back over the last few years, aside from the unfriendly comment of 'you're looking for mushrooms, aren't you?!' or (this was funny on the weekend) "daddy, there's someone hiding in the bushes!", "Don't worry, they're just looking for mushrooms!" , I've never had a bad experience with locals being neither jealous nor high and mighty.

Funniest is the strange looks when you get on the train after a whole days' picking (damn quite a few years ago), covered in mud, clutching a mysterious cloth bag :)

Having friends who own farms and propertys in the areas that get raped south of Perth your probably one of a minority, more power to you :) There is a big Police presence in some areas due to this rape and pillage problem. Crossing into private property, leaving gates open etc

You are right.. I put the warning there as a general hint for people to do their reseach before experimenting with fungi :)

hahaha thats classic :D
 
quick question, are there any edible mushrooms in the illawarra area?
i've heard that there is but i need someone to confirm it.
i don't want a source, just a yes or no.
:)
 
surfie_boi: Wouldn't bother with mushrooms in QLD in winter time. QLD mushroom hunting times are October to April. But I find the best Cubies are around Jan-Feb. However I didn't get any last season round as the farm I usually went to is being developed on :(
 
Subs can be found in the illawarra area. Generally above the escarpment, esspecially inland towards the Southern Highlands near Bowral or Picton. Try after particularly cold wet weather.
 
endlesseulogy how many mega pix is your camera and what type of camera is it thank you
 
Tassies NW Coast Is Booming For Subs This Year!:)
I Spent Just Under An Hour In A Local Reserve Today
And Collected Over 50 Specimens.
It has Been In Full Swing For About 3-4 Weeks Now!=D
Happy Hunting And Be Respectfull To Their Enviroment!!
 
hey splatt. I read your last post on here. I just moved to QLD from another country (so i dont know alot of how things work over here). Would I be really wasting my time searching around this time of year. Its just that it makes more sense to me to look in the winter, since it gets bloody hot here.
 
West Aust

WoW i found 2 P.subs !

Some friends of mine found 40+ yesterday.

I'm so sick of going to places here in WA and finding trails of ungrateful fuckwits who leave there rubbish everywhere, and lifting logs up and not putting them back !

Every single mushroom ripped up and just thrown on the ground, roots (mycelluim sp?) and all...

raped and pillaged i tells ya !
 
i saw five kids get bailed into the back of a police van last night after being caught with a shopping bag of full of mushrooms.. be very careful in Melb. :)
 
In North east vic we have only had it rain a couple of times since April. Found around 20 but havent had enough rain yet for more. Hoping that things pick up as the weather starts to dramatically get cooler. I've nearly forgotton what rain looks like :0(
Subs this year seem to be stronger than last years pick- could all be in my head though.
 
Those mushrooms with a spongy underneath are called Boletes and they have pores instead of gills. Melbourne has been lacking rain for a month or so, the season has come to a bit of a halt so wait for a bit of a downpour and then go for another look.

"How long do subs stay out and about during the day/would they still be there in the afternoon?"

Im not sure what you mean here, but subs stay out until they die, or are picked obviously. :\
