Man up! Get them fried and on some toast, pronto!From my data they look like Shaggy Scalycaps (inedible) or more likely Freckled Dapperlings (poisonous). Not so easy to tell from my photos, but clearer with it on the table. So I won't be eating them, shame, I was looking forward to a lunch of mushies on toast.
what does the other side look like..Mushrooms growing on the roadside verge. Any opinions on safety?
No, gills almost white. 2 more pics attachedwhat does the other side look like..
spiky ? could be hedgehog mushrooms.
Actually, all joking aside, a farmer I know from the shoot I go on has a dog that ate a mushroom about a month ago. It acted strange and keeked over. He thought that for all intents and purposes, it had died. He carried it home and saw a flicker of life so he put it in its bed and kept an eye on it. Within half an hour or so it was as right as ninepence!Looking again at the Freckled Dapperling, it says "The edibility of this mushroom seems unknown and it has been shown to have adverse effects when consumed with alcohol so we don’t recommend consumption of this mushroom" so maybe a bit OTT to put it in the Poisonous rather than Inedible category.
I wouldn't mind trying them on "foreigners", or a dog if I had one!
Make sure you give her this forum's password...Didn’t have to forage far at all today. These have popped up on my lawn. May be 'Glistening inkcap'. Not poisonous, edible, not very flavoursome. Can’t try them out as Mrs Mottie is at home and she's against my latest hobby.
