Mushrooms in Tver. When the mushroom season begins

Mushroom picking is often compared to hunting. But the feeling that no animal will suffer, there is no need to shoot anyone, makes such hunting ideal for any person.

At the height of the mushroom season, you can collect full body of mushrooms, and there already as much as you wish: fry, pickle, marinate or even sell.

We go to the "quiet hunt"

Throughout the mushroom season, when mushrooms are taken out of the forest by buckets, has not yet begun. But today you can go to the mushrooms in Tver and the region and completely pick up a basket of chanterelles or russules. A particularly lucky can get caught even podberezoviki.

But to go to the forest did not bring disappointment, you need to know several rules of an inveterate mushroom picker.

1. Come to the forest as early as possible.

A real mushroom pro will meet the sun at the edge, and he will already have a complete basket of forest gifts.

They say that when the sun does not light everything around and the dew emerges, the mushroom is more visible thanks to a shiny hat. And when there are still few mushrooms, it's better to hurry, otherwise you will only have "roots", and the tops will be in the body of the earlier mushroom pickers.

2. Do not immediately set your feet deep into the forest

Many people think that the farther to go into the forest, the more there will be mushrooms. But this is not so. It is more expedient to start from the edge of the forest or its outskirts. For some reason, many people forget about this, although you can always find many mushrooms there.

• If a mushroom comes across, it is worth looking next to it. When the mushroom season begins, the fungus may be the only place in this place, but, as a rule, the mushrooms multiply with the help of the mycelium. Examine carefully the place next to the find.

High season

Mass mushrooms in Tver begin to appear in September. All avid mushroom pickers are very familiar with the feeling of excitement, such that covers the real hunters. That hat shone, here's another, and here, under the tree, it turns out a whole family of butter ...

What is this inexpressible feeling, when the body slowly but surely fills with redheads, boletuses, poderezinoikov. And if you're lucky, you can also find white mushrooms. Tver (2014 was pleased with an unprecedented harvest) was simply "filled up" with noble mushrooms. Mushroom pickers boasted a valuable find more than once, which made excitement even more for many fans to stroll through the forest in search of forest gifts.

Experienced people can determine in advance how successful the mushroom season will be. If there is a lot of rains in the spring, and the summer is warm, but not arid, one can safely prepare for the forthcoming "quiet hunt". Probably there will be a lot of mushrooms.

But even now the mushroom places in Tver will please mushroom pickers with chanterelles and honey-mushrooms.

By the way, when the mass gathering of mushrooms begins, the russules are not even considered a real fungus. But now you can be content with this.

Mushrooms, but not everywhere

Do not think that if the calendar came the season of collecting mushrooms, then they appear everywhere and immediately. Firstly, very much depends on how hot or rainy it was summer. It happens that the rains may start, but the weather is warm and as soon as the sun looks out, the mushrooms grow actively.

So it was in Tver in 2013. When in the middle of the summer in the markets sold buckets of boletus, podberezoviki and even a white fungus.

But the grace period quickly ended. And not everywhere it was possible to harvest the harvest. Not all popular mushroom places in Tver pleased with their abundance. For example, near the village of Mitnevo, where there are usually full of mushrooms, in the 2013-2014 season they simply were not.

At the end of August, you can collect literally buckets, not just a basket and chanterelles, and podberezovikov, and mushrooms and much more. The special pride of any mushroom picker is, of course, a white fungus. The Tver region, like no other, spoils this majestic mushroom.

In the midst of the mushroom picking, such specimens as mushrooms and russula do not go into account. Yes, they are not considered real fungi. They simply do not notice and do not collect.
