Mushrooms are considered the most popular among fans of forest hunting in the fall. Mushrooms have impressive dimensions, bright color, hats, which can be seen even in tall grass. But finding these mushrooms during a leaf fall is sometimes quite difficult. Varieties of boletus include a huge range of colors, however, as a rule, all mushrooms resemble yellowed or reddened aspen leaves in color.
The booty (the second name is Osinovik or Krasnogolovik) is one of the types of mushrooms that belong to the genus Lectzinum. This species received its own name due to the fact that it grows mainly under the aspen.
What does the mushroom look like, where is it growing?
The boot, as a rule, is in 3th position in taste among other types of mushrooms. If it is near the aspen, its hat has a rich dark red color.
- These forest gifts can also live under other trees. If you are without a concept of what kind of boot, which grows near the poplar, you will not recognize it the first time.
- Each type of this mushroom is characterized by its own bright color of the top, a dense body and a high leg.
- The size of the hat can be distinguished. It all depends on the type of mushroom itself. The minimum diameter is 5 cm, the maximum is 30 cm. When the boot is young, it has a hat in the form of a ball, which has the ability to tightly fit the top of the legs.
- The hat resembles a conventional thimble when it puts on a finger. When the boot begins to grow, the hat changes, acquiring a convex shape in the form of a pillow. At the very adult mushroom, the hat becomes noticeably compacted. The skin that covers it, very dry, has a velvety or felt surface. Some varieties have a hat, the edges of which hang. She may not even act.
- The height of the leg reaches up to 22 cm. It has a distinctive, pin -shaped shape that expands below. The skin of the legs is covered with small scales. It can be brown or black.
- A porous layer is present under the mushroom hat. Its thickness can be at least 1 cm and a maximum of 3 cm. The skin of the skin is white, gray, yellow or brown.
- Most of the boletus have smooth disputes. Of these, the powder is ocher-brown or olive-brown. The hat has a rather fleshy and very dense pulp. It has good elasticity. In the leg, all the fibers are located longitudinally. From the very beginning, the mushroom pulp has a white color, but in the context it begins to instantly blue, becomes black.
Mushrooms grow in the temperate, northern zones of America. They are also found in Eurasia. Each type of mushroom has one or more partners of a tree. With their roots, mushrooms have a close connection. Consequently, simulators can grow not only near the aspen, but also near pine, birches, oaks, and so on.
Supplies often grow in small groups. However, in some cases, in nature, one can find such a type, a growing one. Supplies give preference to moist, low -powered deciduous or mixed forests. They can also grow in shady thickets, lanes, which are overgrown with grass, blueberries or ferns. They love mushrooms to grow in moss, along the edges of forest paths.
These mushrooms grow at different times:
- Kolosoviki They begin to germinate in the middle of summer. However, they are not distinguished by a great abundance. This period of the year includes yellow-brown appearance or white. These varieties belong to the category of boletus that germinate the very first.
- Reaper. They appear in the forests approximately in August and end in fruit in approximately September. They can give a fairly rich harvest. This category of boletus includes black -cherry or red.
- Listoga. They arise in the fall. They grow until the first autumn frosts. During this period of the year, red -legged spruce redloles can grow, since the bed of coniferous needles for a long time protects mushroom myceliums and overgrown simulators.

How to distinguish an edible and false boot: comparison, signs of differences
Sunsin is a beautiful and safe mushroom. Almost all varieties are considered edible. Therefore, if you know for sure their appearance, you can easily collect without fear for your own health.
But sometimes many mushroom pickers have the question of how to distinguish false from ordinary? In fact, there is no false mushroom in nature. People often confuse him with a potter. This representative looks very much to a simple boletus.
Gorchak has a bitter taste. But, you will not try it until you distinguish from a good bolet. It is very difficult to distinguish a normal boletus from a false mushroom in external indicators. But be that as it may, it can still be done.
- First, take a closer look at the color of the mushroom. Cut it. Look, the false mushroom has a slightly reddish or pinkish tone. The real boletus is white on the cut, sometimes its color is bluish.
- The next sign is an unusual mesh present on the mushroom leg. The false representative has this mesh of a reddish or yellowish shade. On the usual real mushroom, such additional inclusions are simply absent. The boletus has an even, beautiful tone.
- Also, do not forget that the "lifes" can grow exclusively in coniferous forests. You can find such mushrooms near pine trees, fir trees. But normal boletus grow only near deciduous trees.
As you noticed, the lack of sufficiently pronounced toxicity does not mean that the copy is considered edible. Therefore, if you decide to go for the boletus, take a special reference book with you. It is better that all representatives of this category of mushrooms are described in it, their colors, photographs were presented. Also in the reference book, pictures of false mushrooms should be printed so that during the harvest, you certainly do not mix them up.
