Best Mushroom Foraging Apps

-

Mushroom identification is not an easy task, even for experts, as there are hundreds of thousands of species of wild mushrooms. Some mushrooms are edible, a few can send you on a mystical journey, and several will try and kill you.


So how are we supposed to tell them all apart?



Experience, and careful practice, honed over many years, is the best way to really learn how to identify mushrooms. However, there are some helpful mushroom identification apps that can lend a hand along the way.


It is not a good idea to leave the final decision of whether to eat mushrooms to an identification app. Still, they can be useful when you just want a general idea of what you are looking at. 


Many of these apps also rely on you being able to get a high-quality photo of the mushroom. So if you’re unable to do that, your results might not be accurate. 


Mushroom identification apps are convenient. And they are an excellent tool for novice mushroom foragers who want to orient themselves to the world of mushrooms.


Here are some of the best mushroom identification apps that can help you identify mushrooms in a minute:

This app will also warn you of some toxic mushrooms so that you can stay away from them to keep safe. The app grants you access to high-quality articles about trending topics in the field of mushrooms, allows you to keep track of your foraging site for your next picking reference, recommends seasonal mushrooms according to your location, easily keeps track of the mushrooms you’ve identified in your collection, and allows you to share your findings with your friends.

Grow Your Own Mushrooms

Having fresh, hand-picked mushrooms available at your fingertips is much easier than most people initially think. All you need is a few materials and the right environment and you will be able to grow most of your favorite mushrooms all year-round. Mushrooms are not a one-size fits all type of organism to grow. The type of mushroom you are growing will determine what substrate is needed to cultivate the spores best. Most common mushrooms grown at home include:  🍄 Shiitake 🍄 White Button 🍄 Maitake 🍄 Oyster  🍄 Portobello The importance of the right growing substrate cannot be understated when attempting to grow mushrooms at home. Like plants, mushrooms have their preferences for their growing medium; if these preferences are not met, they might grow poorly.  Shiitake mushrooms prefer to grow on hardwood sawdust or wood chip substrate and would not grow well in compost or manure-type substrate. Alternatively, straw works well for oyster mushrooms, and compost or manur...

Ireland has an abundance of wild mushrooms that you can safely learn to identify and enjoy for their culinary properties, medicinal qualities or just deepen your connection to nature.  We have compiled a brief list of some of the most commonly found mushrooms in Ireland to help get you curious enough to start exploring. *Never rely on one source for mushroom identification, and never eat anything unless you are 110% sure it is edible. 1. Chanterelle 🕐 When can I find them? August - September - October - November - December - January 🔍 Where can I find them? Chanterelle can be found in woodlands, growing from the ground or decaying wood. They are likely to reappear in the same place every year, so if you find a good spot, you should be able to find them there in upcoming years as well. 👀 What do they look like? Chanterelle are orange or yellow, meaty and funnel-shaped. Chanterelles have blunt gill-like ridges which run down the stem of the mushroom.  🍴 What do they smell an...
