Oyster mushrooms growing on our mango tree
I found these oyster mushrooms growing on our mango tree recently.
They looked like oyster mushrooms.
They smell like oyster mushrooms.
I was so tempted to harvest them.
But I didn’t.

I would’ve been tempted too, but it’s safer this way.

I know. I was just too tempted to harvest them especially when I could smell them. I’m very familiar with the smell, as I had a research on antibiotics produced by oyster mushrooms.

the general rule for any kind of food is,” that if you doubt dont eat.”

As gorgeous as they are, I would have probably not picked them either. I really wish I knew more about mushrooms.

You need to find someone truly adventurous to try them out first.

Just to let you know, from what I know of mushrooms I dont think there are any DEADLY poison mushrooms that grow in that size and shape. There are dozens of diffrent varienties of oyster mushroom and I would be this is one of them. Certain clases of mushroom are deadly and I can not be 100% certain that these are safe, but if it was me Id be tempted to try them in very small quantities….If you get an upset stomach toss the rest but if after 24 hours you feel ok Try a little more. If you dont get sick they are good. These could be what I have seen called angelic or leafy oyster mushroom. Your always safer not to try them Me ….Depends on how hungry I am for mushrooms I guess. Id probably feed them to the cat first to see…..LOL but thats just me.
