Probably, every person knows or heard about such a mushroom as champignon. Many love it and appreciate it for its pleasant smell and excellent taste. Thanks to the industrial cultivation of these mushrooms, we can enjoy them almost all year round without fear for our he alth, because now you can buy them in any supermarket.
But there are people who, in spite of everything, prefer "silent hunting" shopping in the store. In this case, they should be careful and attentive so as not to confuse the false champignon with the real one.
Types of champignons
To be calm, going on a "quiet hunt", you should know what champignons are, where and at what time they grow. It will also be useful to know what a false champignon looks like in order to distinguish it from the real one. In general, more than a dozen species of these mushrooms are found in nature. So, for example, champignonlarge-spored and ordinary (or meadow) are most often found in the steppe or meadows. In the garden and in the garden, two-spore and two-ring species usually grow.
And near the trees you can find field champignon. These species grow from May to October. There are also forest species of these mushrooms. They are found from July to mid-October, can grow in both deciduous and mixed forests. These include champignons dark red, woodland, August. And in coniferous forests, as a rule, there is a forest species that grows near spruces.
False champignons: how to distinguish from real ones?
Fans of "quiet hunting" may be in danger, because among the edible mushrooms false champignons, such as flat cap, red and yellow-skinned, can be caught. They usually appear from mid-summer. Most often they can be found in deciduous and mixed forests.
But such "twins" can also grow in fields, meadows, as well as in parks and near houses. Outwardly, they practically do not differ from their edible counterparts, but they have features that allow you to recognize false champignons among real ones. If you press on the pulp of such a mushroom, it will turn yellow, and on the cut at the base of the leg - bright yellow. After a while, the color will turn orange or even brown. For comparison: in edible mushrooms, when you press the pulp, it turns red or pink. In addition, inedible specimens can be recognized by a specificsmell. It is similar to the smell of drugs, iodine or carbolic acid. If you lower the false mushroom into boiling water, the water will immediately turn yellow, and the unpleasant smell will intensify.

Mushroom pickers can also face more serious dangers, because young champignons are very similar to the pale grebe and the light fly agaric, which are very poisonous. These twins have a light color and outwardly differ little from edible mushrooms. But in real representatives, the plates darken with age, but in fly agaric and pale grebe they always remain white. In addition, if you press the pulp of these mushrooms, it will not change its color, and their legs are always in the root "pots" - Volvos. You need to be very careful to see them, because they are almost invisible. Poisonous twins are usually found in coniferous and mixed forests, so they are most often confused with woodland mushroom.
If, when picking mushrooms, you are not sure of their edibility, then it is better not to take risks and not take such specimens. The ability to recognize a false mushroom among real ones requires a lot of attention and experience, so you should think about whether you need to risk your he alth when you can buy completely normal mushrooms in the store without worrying about your safety.
