Bioluminescencent mushrooms

Postby Iliad on Mon Apr 09, 2007 6:40 am

Okay,I went to a forest today to pick some mushrooms. WE found all these weird ones, so we decided to take them home. Now I have found out that they glow in the dark.

And the funny thing is I was randomly thinking about monster-mushrooms that glow in the dark when we were walking through the forest(I jsut saw the trailer for "Black Sheep", which is a movie about monster sheep, so I was kinda thinking about random hilarious monsters.

Now I don't think it's so funny.

Try to find them on a mycology website. You never know, they might have magical properties 8-[ , although if they're bioluminescent then they're probably poisonous.
