one of the driest springs on record and the warmest june for england as well as three heatwaves already me and mushrooms don t need three heatwaves thanks mushrooms need rain warmth and moisture to thrive and after a downpour earlier in the day i thought it might be worth having a look here s what happened at the beginning you can hear my water bottle in my bag and a great spotted woodpecker kicking i began in the presence of bambi or a fallow deer it was one of the driest springs on record in the uk fungi need water to allow the mycelium to produce the fruiting body mushroom the first fungus i found was a very dry community of turkeytail summer is a time to look for boletes and russulas the main fungus i found was a ganoderma bracket here s the video of the spore cloud i filmed
