FUNGILOVERS || TWO DIFFERENT BEAUTY OF MUSHROOMS

Good night and good luck with your respective activities, so on this happy evening I want to show you some pictures of mushrooms that I found a few days ago.

Mushroom is a plant that grows by itself in various places without human intervention. Mushrooms have their own differences from shape to color. Mushrooms have plant elements that grow so fast in a humid place as we can see in my picture above, even though they grow on different tree branches, mushrooms have the same element, which is to absorb water even though the twig or the place it grows on has died.

In my area or especially in the Aceh Province, many people name mushrooms based on their color and shape like the ek ase mushroom or the Indonesian name jamur kotoran hewan mushroom. From the meaning of the name, that is, it comes from a fungus that grows on cow dung or dog dung, therefore the naming of the name of the type of mushroom in my area is very funny.

Here are some pictures of mushrooms along with their explanations.

Hairy red mushroom (cup mushroom)

Red hairy mushroom is a drying fungus that grows in forest areas that have high humidity. The name of the cup is taken from its shape which is somewhat similar to a cup. This has its own benefits from these mushrooms because these mushrooms grow on old tree branches and there is no water on the tree branches because the tree branches are dead. Therefore, this mushroom has a cup-like shape so that it can collect rainwater on its petals so that it can grow freely.

This mushroom has a red color and even then depends on the amount of water it holds for growth. This fungus requires a lot of water for growth and to color the petals.

We can find this fungus in the interior of the forest that has high humidity so that it can grow by itself. Not only that that can decorate it, this mushroom still has its own uniqueness, namely it has a lot of fine hairs all over the petals so that this mushroom looks very beautiful. These fine hairs function as a filter against the rainwater they contain.

The cup-like mushroom still has another color, namely yellow, but it's still the same species, it's just the color that distinguishes them. This red mushroom grows to a height of about half an inch, this mushroom does not actually grow as tall as other mushrooms, it only grows by having its petals spread sideways and it also depends on the amount of water it gets.

For the width size of the petals in my picture, it has 1.7 cm. This size certainly already has a fairly large petal width compared to other similar species.

White Mushroom

The following white fungus is a mushroom that is different from other mushrooms. This mushroom is included in the type of perennial mushroom because this fungus is very easy to die if it does not have water for its growth but this fungus can come back to life after having enough water or rather after getting rain water, this mushroom can even come back to life after a few days die as long as he can have dew in the morning.

Based on my observations, this mushroom doesn't actually die but it just wilts if it doesn't have water for a few days to grow. Imagine if we don't drink water for 3 days growing up we will feel weak and lethargic, but once we drink water our bodies can return to normal and the cells in our bodies can work again as usual. So the conclusion is that there are no living things in this world that are immortal, all will die in time.

This mushroom has a very white color so that in my area people call it the white mushroom. This mushroom has a unique petal shape unlike other mushrooms, which has petals like an umbrella, but for this mushroom it is very different, this mushroom has petals that are like opposites like an umbrella. This mushroom has two variations of different shapes from small to mature. When small this mushroom has brown petals and the stem has small scales, while as an adult this mushroom has very white petals and the stem is pure white and doesn't even have scales anymore on the stem.

This mushroom is also included in the type of mushroom that can be eaten by humans. This mushroom has a fairly high size, this fungus grows to a height of about 1.5 cm with the width of the petals which is about 2 cm. Based on the picture above, this mushroom looks very long and even exceeds the size I set earlier. Actually this mushroom is very short and exactly like the size I set earlier even though the mushroom looks big but the original shape is much different from what we see in my picture.
