@that-onecookiehead

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*

Fibre crafts are 50% soothing repetitive action and 50% "God Fucking Damnit"

Funguary Day 8: Destroying Angel

This mushroom is HIGHLY poisonous. I’m going to put a cut for this one because I’ve written a fairly vivid description of poisoning

People often eat this mushroom, mistaking the young destroying angel for a puffball mushroom (see below) or other edible species. Symptoms appear between 6-24 hours after consuming these mushrooms. Initial symptoms include violent abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea. These symptoms usually persist for 6-9 hours. Next there is a symptomless period in which the victim seems to recover. This provides a false sense of security while unbeknownst to the victim, the toxins are severely affecting the liver during this time. The fourth and final stage is a relapse, the toxins have completely destroyed the liver, causing gastrointestinal bleeding, coma, and kidney failure. Victims may “bleed out” due to the destruction of clotting factors in the blood. Death usually occurs within seven days after consumption.

Funguary Day 25: Trumpet of Death

“Trumpet of death” is actually a misleading name, as these mushrooms are highly sought after for being edible. They are also known as “horn of plenty” and can be found in autumn. They do, however, have several poisonous lookalikes.

Funguary Day 2: Chicken of the Woods

The chicken of the woods is most commonly known for being highly sought after for its edibility, but it is also a tree killer. 

This mushroom infects trees causing a brown rot within the heartwood. The rot is primarily in the main trunk, but can extend into branches as well. It infects both living and nonliving trees, usually making its way into living trees through injuries in the bark or roots. Once mushrooms show up, there's nothing you can do to rid the tree of the fungi.

It also tastes like chicken

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!
