A few days ago when I was cleaning my cocoa plantation area, I accidentally found a mushroom that looked very interesting, I managed to find this mushroom growing on the edge of the river, precisely on a dead areca nut tree, if you look closely, this mushroom has a yellowish white color, in my area this mushroom is often called wood mushroom, don't worry, this mushroom itself can be eaten and the taste is a little bland, usually I often cook this mushroom with the addition of instant noodles, and it becomes a very delicious taste. However, on this very happy occasion I only tried to and did not harvest it, the reason is that I managed to find this mushroom in not too much quantity so it would be a little troublesome for me if I only harvested a small amount.

And this is one of the mushrooms that is very easy to find in my area, even in the dry season this mushroom can also grow well, but in the dry season I often find this mushroom with a whiter color and a smaller shape, but during the rainy season, this mushroom has a slightly yellowish color and with a larger size. Here are some pictures of this unique mushroom
