Off Topic Are these meadow mushrooms?

[Crummybun]

Found these under my silver maple today. They seemed to have sprung up in the last 2 or 3 days. Can anyone identify these? Thanks Ben

If they are white underneath avoid. If they and brown then they are likely Horse mushrooms which I gather a lot of every fall. Thanks
for the heads up that it's time.

Yours appear to be edible horse mushrooms

was thinking it should be a good year for "shaggy manes" as well with all the rain we been having

Hey @GPS there a bit pinkish but very light colour underneath. I looked them up but can't be certain what they are....

Just read the article you posted and I'm going to agree with you horse mushrooms ! No yellow staining on the base. It also states that when they first open their pink underneath.

Pink is very early before brown. I think they’re good

There are usually a number of criteria to look at for positive ID. You certainly want to be very careful before consumption.

Left them in a paper bag overnight. This is what it looks like today.

I feel very confident that they are horse mushrooms.

Has anybody heard from Crummybun since? Did the mushrooms get him??

 

[Crummybun]

Lol. No, they haven't got me yet... I think I've eaten far more dangerous fair at the local mccdonalds.

Horse mushrooms they do appear to be. The unopened ones will have a cogwheel pattern on the veil. They will have an anise seed smell and the gills on the young’s ones are pinkish. IF the stem (stipe) bruises yellow when cut DO NOT EAT. Horse mushrooms will not bruise. I had a nice feed yesterday. Been picking a lot of shrimp of the woods and honey mushrooms they are out full force flush too.

@stomp I've overestimated you, once again. I thought you'd recognize a vintage Certo brand pectin bottle when you see one. Turns out its worth a lucky $13 Canuckistan Kopecks!

Here is a vintage Certo bottle. This is a rounded brown amber glass bottle with measure marks saying “For 1/2 Bottle Pour to Here” embossed and "Certo Registered Trademark” above the shoulder. Certo is a fruit pectin made from the skins of pressed apples or citrus fruit and is used for making...
