What Did I Do To Deserve This T-T

CONGRATS (TO MOST OF YOU) FOR CHOOSING THE RIGHT FUNGI!!!!!!

To those of you who voted mushroom B, I am giving you a light slap on the wrist

Happy April fools!

Let's play a game! :D Which of the following mushrooms are you going to eat?

In this game you can't say none of the above. You have to choose. I promise at least one will be a tasty snack. The other one is less so. Good luck :D

Funguary Day 14: Crepidotus

The term Crepidotus refers to a whole genus of fungi characterized by their small convex or fan shaped caps and their growth of decaying wood or plant debris. The most visually notable member of this genus I could find was the cinnabar oysterling, a mushroom with a bright red to orange cap and flame-like fibers at the edge of the cap and margins of the gills. 

Crepidotus cinnabarinus shows up in late summer and early fall, and its bright colors make it stand out against fallen branches and rotting trees.

heeeyyy @madoxeal feel like doing a two artists one base with me? :3

tbh either character would fit either of us x-x

just depends who wants to do the side profile lol

Time to go big *uses time travel and ocean summoning to pull all the water that ever existed on Earth and dumps it in your inbox*- Flooder anon

*drowns*

Mushrooms in nature: I will grow no matter the obstacle I will spread my mycelium far and wide I will outlive your family and feast on your corpse no power on earth shall stop me

Mushrooms when you try to farm them: Ew tf you mean 80% humidity I said I wanted 90

*freaking dies*

Pick a mushroom to eat!

Time for my favorite game, guess the mushroom that won't kill you! The People™️ did so well on my last one in fact that I've made it harder this time :D

Enjoy!

Some concept art for a current project being made with the lovely @that-onecookiehead :)

Funguary Day 15: Puffball

Puffball mushrooms develop their spores inside their hollow fruiting bodies. Once mature a hole opens in the top to release spores when compressed, usually by animal activity, human intervention, or rain. 

If you want to see a video of the spore release, which I highly recommend, you can find a video here!

Funguary Day 16: Mycena Chlorophos

Mycena Chlorophos is what's known as a foxfire fungus- a fungus that glows at night. The mushroom regulates its glow through a circadian rhythm, at night the levels of the chemical compound and enzymes that react to produce the bioluminescence peak. 

It is theorized that the light it emits at night is to attract beetles and other insects that might help spread the spores similar to how flowers use scents and colors to attract pollinators

Once an experiment was ran by Olson in which two cultures of the biter oyster, another foxfire fungi, were grown and placed on a completely dark box under constant conditions. He left them alone for a week with a camera sensitive enough to pick up their bioluminescence. What the camera showed was that the mycelium grew in an irregular circle, with the glow more intense at the center than at the edges. After a couple days there was a sudden shift, in one of the cultures a wave of bioluminescence passed over the network from one edge to the other. A day later a similar wave passed over the second culture. Though the fungi were kept in the dark for several more weeks, the flare up never occurred again. Years later, Olson still did not know what had caused the sudden flare.
