i live in asheville NC and i just found a bunch of gold mushrooms growing in some mulch in my backyard, could it be tha real deal or are there alot of different mushrooms that can grow from mulch?
There are a shit load of different mushrooms that grow from mulch. Send us a picture. If you squeeze one of them a little and wait 5 min and it turns a purplish blue, then it is most likely the good ones. It has to be a smaller mushroom with brownish purple gills. If this all matches up eat just one and if you get sick, don't eat more. HAHA. If you don't wait a day or two and eat 3-4. Most LBMs are not deadly poisonous. Some will just give you diarrhea and stomach craps that make you wish you were dead.
