  1. If steve Russell doesn't get back with you.  Hit me up and I'll get you information on where to send samples.  Pics and samples are best.  Also a better place to post these pictures for ID is Indiana mushrooms on Facebook.  It's a very active sister group of Hoosier mushroom society founded by Steve as well. Good admin's on there.

  2. Go to false mushrooms demystified and post this. doesn't look like eseulenta to me.  Most likely G. caroliniana. They will guide you properly.  Most likely edible with precancerous.  And maybe no toxins in this if cooked thoroughly.  Get their advice.

    I'm headed to the woods tomorrow,  where I found that growth a few years ago.  I'm planning to go back and see if it's still there.  I'll take pictures of it before I harvest it.  If anyone wants a sample for study,  let me know. 

    Just get a sample,  post the picks and send a sample to to Steve Russell. He may contact you or I'll PM his address to send it to. 

  4. If this one does come back as Chaga it would only be the second one documented in Indiana, both I think were from northern Indiana.  So I think if  you have a possible Chaga species, I'm sure Steve Russell would like another,  especially if from a more southern location. 

  5. It does look like Chaga,  but I'm not good with pictures.  If you have the geo tag on and you found it in Indiana,  Steve Russell may be interested.  Only one confirmed in Indiana so far.  Or post it in Indiana mushrooms on Facebook.  That's a sister group to this one and is more active. 

  6. They are fine,  I understand,  but I have only eaten Calvatia gigantia. And I slice off the skin. And do an egg batter, then fry them in butter.  Next morning I take the leftovers that were cooked up and reheat in the microwave.  Add butter and syrup.  Best French toast ever,  and healthier.  Half inch to 3/4 in. Slices.
