VaAngler Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 I've been on a hunt for more winter oyster mushrooms since I found and thoroughly enjoyed my first batch. After a pretty good hike today I believe I finally found some more! Some were very large and beginning to dry then I found a few more growing from nearly the underside of a log a few feet from the first clusters I found in the pictures below. Just wanted a second opinion before I cook them. Thank you for your help and happy holidays! They're kinda different colors between the two batches slightly but I was assuming that was from age/drying and not 2 different Pleurotus species.

Dave W Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 They look like a species of Pleurotus to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I need to step up my tree identification big time, however this tree has lost almost all of its bark and the top is gone so idk for sure what it is. Next trip I will try to get an answer to that and focus on improving my tree id-ing weakness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 That tree is a good find. You can keep going back to pick more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've checked it one more time since, nothing yet but I'm definitely gonna check that spot after rains, luckily it's actually really accessible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
