Many mushrooms have periods of growth. They are called "layers" or "waves". Usually they are singled out 4.
Snowdrop mushrooms
Usually the first layer begins in April-May with the appearance of lines and morels. Their germination is accompanied by blooming of aspen catkins and swelling of birch buds. There are few mushrooms at this time due to lack of heat, although there is enough moisture. This wave is short - 7-10 days. The first mushrooms are scouts and are called "snowdrops".
Spike mushrooms
The second layer appears in May-June, when viburnum and wild rose flowers bloom. At this time, spikelet mushrooms sprout. What are these organisms? If you want to look in the directory for the name "spike mushroom", you will not find anything. The reason is that for science they do not exist. Spikelets are called boletus, boletus, boletus, russula, summer mushrooms, mushrooms, chanterelles. The name "spike mushroom" is due to the fact that they appear when cereals begin to ear. They grow constantly in one place, which makes it easier for experienced mushroom pickers to find them. In addition, the spikelet mushroom should be looked for not in the forest, but in open space. Therefore, it can be easily found. The taste of the spikelet mushroom does not differ from those that ripen in the fall. But there are few of them in number. Summer mushrooms are the most massive mushrooms in June.
Russula
Russula are distinguished by bright colors. Their hats are painted in all the colors of the rainbow. They are green, yellow, orange, red. Russula never hide like other mushrooms, but attract mushroom pickers like flowers. They are very easy to find. The lack of russula is too much brittleness. These mushrooms have a bitter taste. But after soaking and cooking, the bitterness disappears. Mushrooms are called "russula" because they can be eaten even raw. Although only lovers like their taste.
Chanterelles
Chanterelles sprout when the lilies of the valley fade. These mushrooms are forest dwellers. They form mycorrhiza with trees. Most often, chanterelles can be found near spruce, pine, oak and beech. They grow in large groups, they are not found singly. Chanterelles are difficult to confuse with other mushrooms, as their appearance is peculiar. They have properties that give them advantages over others. They are the only mushrooms that do not break and never get wormy. In addition, chanterelles absorb very few radionuclides, unlike others.
Mushroom King
Cep mushrooms or mushrooms appear when strawberries ripen. According to mushroom pickers, it is with their appearance that the real season begins. It is no coincidence that white is called"king". After all, a boletus mushroom is a mushroom for all mushrooms. It is found in various forests. But mostly it can be found near blueberries, lingonberries and fly agarics. They like porcini mushrooms to settle near anthills. They are found alone or in a group. Depending on the place of growth, mushrooms can vary greatly. Mushrooms growing in a spruce forest are brown in color with light spots. Mushrooms with a chestnut-brown hat "live" in a pine forest. Picked from an oak or birch grove, these mushrooms are light brown in color and have a long stem.
Summer mushrooms
The third layer of mushrooms begins after the end of haymaking, when linden blossoms (in mid-July). It continues for 2-3 weeks. But for its appearance, favorable weather is needed: moisture and warmth. At this time, you can meet butterflies, boletus, boletus, boletus.
Foliage Mushrooms
The fourth wave is the most abundant and longest. It starts in August and ends after the first frost. These mushrooms are not afraid of cool dew and morning cold. They can completely freeze, and when melted, they will not lose their taste and smell at all. Autumn mushrooms are not in vain called "deciduous" - they hide among the fallen leaves. This wave includes mushrooms, boletus and boletus, chanterelles and milk mushrooms, pigs and volnushki, autumn mushrooms and mushrooms. The appearance of the penultimate means the end of summer. These mushrooms grow when the cold comes. The longest are winter honey agarics and oyster mushrooms. They can be found even in winterduring thaws. At the same time, the taste qualities of mushrooms are not lost.
