The forests of Primorsky Krai are unusually “prolific” for mushrooms. Here grow such types of fruiting bodies that are not found at all in other regions of the Federation, or are found, but very rarely. According to experts, about 800 species of mushrooms grow in this area, 300 of them are edible.
Row mushrooms are not considered popular, but this is an amazing and diverse species in the mushroom “kingdom”. Rows grow in large groups, or rather, in rows, which characterizes their name. In a small area, you can pick up a couple of baskets of these mushrooms. Almost all forest areas in Our Country are rich in these fruiting bodies. Row mushrooms are also found in the Primorsky Territory.
The aroma and taste of seaside rows is very high, this is especially noticeable in young mushrooms. In this territory, 2 types of rows are considered the most common: gray, as well as pink or violet. However, many “silent hunting” lovers usually do not collect these fruiting bodies, because they are afraid to confuse them with inedible and poisonous species. In addition, the rows require a special approach – they must be soaked and boiled in salted water.
The rows of Primorsky Krai are divided into spring, summer, and autumn species. In addition, they are divided into edible, conditionally edible and poisonous mushrooms.
As already noted, pink and gray species are the most popular edible mushrooms in Primorsky Krai, so we offer photos of these fruiting bodies.
They usually grow in deciduous forests, with predominantly growing oaks. They can also be found in mixed and coniferous forests. These are edible species of rows, but they look intimidating because of their unusual color. If a mushroom picker does not know how to identify such fruiting bodies, he will never pick them, thinking they are toadstools.
Any edible mushrooms growing in the Primorsky Territory, including conditionally edible species, must be subject to preliminary heat treatment in the form of boiling for 20 minutes to 40 minutes, depending on the size.
