Characteristic features of the species and collection rules
The genus includes species of all mushroom categories: from edible to poisonous. The rows are characterized by the following general features:
- a fleshy convex cap that acquires a flattened shape as it ages;
- cracked edges;
- presence of records;
- cylindrical leg;
- thick pulp;
- powdery odor in many species.
It is best to collect paths in the first half of autumn. It is not difficult to look for mushrooms, because they grow in a row and in large groups. You can distinguish edible and poisonous species by appearance, smell or reaction of the pulp to air.
Attention!
You cannot break the mycelium - the paths must be cut with a knife. A broken mushroom place leads to the death of an entire family.
How to distinguish
Every mushroom picker going on a quiet hunt for row mushrooms must remember the golden rule - edible row mushrooms emit practically no odor, they are dangerous to health - they frankly stink with an incomprehensible chemical “composition”. Experts and agronomists strongly recommend harvesting only after the first acquaintance with the plant has occurred and the person already has an idea of what fruits he needs. The minimum that needs to be done is to go to the Internet and study from photos what edible mushrooms look like (besides this, it should be stately, massive, neat).
Next, we will take a closer look at the appearance of the plant, depending on its variety.
Which species are considered completely edible?
Autumn edible rows are represented by the following types:
- Dove (dove). Doves have white, fleshy caps with a cracked edge. They are shaped like a hemisphere. The surface is slippery and sticky. The leg is curved. The surface of the stem is white, but specimens with a greenish base can be found. The plates are wide and white.
- The yellow-brown species is distinguished by a convex velvety cap. Reddish scales are densely located on the yellow-brown surface. The leg is curved, thickened at the base. It always matches the color of the hat. The mushroom plates have a lemon tint.
- The young reddened row has a convex hat, but as the mushroom matures it takes on a flatter shape, and a tubercle protrudes in the center. The surface is sticky, scaly, red-brown in color. The leg is thickened towards the bottom. It is white above and yellow-red below. The pulp is white or yellowish with a characteristic mealy aroma.
- The tortoiseshell has a fleshy cap with a slippery red-brown surface. Initially it is convex, but as it matures it takes on an irregular, prostrate shape. The edges of the cap are thin, with multiple cracks, the stem is wide and fleshy. As the row grows older, it changes its color from white to brown. The pulp is white and does not change color in air. She smells pleasantly of freshly ground flour.
- The gray species is distinguished by an ashy cap with a lilac tint. The surface is smooth and slippery. The leg is thickened towards the base. Its surface, white with a yellowish tint, is covered with a powdery coating. The plates are sinuous, painted white.
- Matsutake has a small brown cracked cap, from under the skin of which white flesh is visible. The leg is dark brown, elongated. It is very difficult to get out of the soil. The pulp has a mushroom aroma.
- Ryadovka Mongolian looks like a champignon. The hat is hemispherical or egg-shaped. As it ages, it may stretch out a little. The edges are curved inward. Young mushrooms have a white and shiny cap, while old mushrooms have a gray and matte cap. The leg is widened at the base, strewn with large white or cream scales.

Poisonous species and differences from edible ones
Ingestion of poisonous row plants is very dangerous for human health. These include the following types:
- spruce;
- white;
- toad;
- smelly;
- conical (pointed);
- brindle (leopard);
- spotted;
- scorched (tanned).
Edible species can only be confused with white, spotted and leopard rows. You can distinguish them like this:
- The white row is distinguished by its snow-white, sometimes yellowish color. The hat is spread out and velvety. The leg is cylindrical, slightly curved. Its surface repeats the color of the cap. You can recognize a mushroom by its pulp. It tends to change its color when in contact with air, so when broken it instantly turns pink. The pulp emits a sharp, unpleasant odor of radish.
White row - The cap of the spotted rower is spread out and slippery, with a small depression in the middle. It is painted light brown. Dark brown longitudinal stripes and spots of the same shade are clearly visible across the entire surface. The edges of the cap are slightly lighter. The leg is widened at the base. From below it repeats the color of the cap, and from above it is white.
Spotted rower - The leopard row is easily recognized by the characteristic leopard pattern on the surface of the cap: dark gray spots appear on a light gray background. The color fades a little along the edges. The hat has an open shape. The leg is white, thickened towards the bottom.

Toxic or downright poisonous “brothers”, which are dangerous
Every self-respecting mushroom picker should be familiar not only with useful forest gifts, but also have an idea of false fruiting bodies - so as not to mistakenly put them in the basket with the harvest. Since our article is devoted to the study of the row mushroom, we present to your attention a description of the fruits of the family that are not suitable for consumption.
White (smelly) row
A poisonous plant that is strikingly reminiscent of the champignons we all know. It emits a very strong chemical stench and also has an unpleasant taste (it burns and imparts bitterness to the taste buds). Grows in colonies under deciduous crops. Like all the varieties discussed earlier, the mushroom cap is at first semicircular, later it becomes prostrate. The diameter of the “head” is up to 12 centimeters, the height of the leg is up to 10. The color of young mushrooms is gray, every day it changes more and more closer to brown, and alarming spots appear. The plates are white-yellow, darkening with aging. They appear from the ground in August, disappearing with the onset of cold weather.
Soap mushroom
It is worth noting that technically such a row is not dangerous to health, since it is not “endowed” with toxins, but not everyone can eat such a delicacy. The main problem of the fruit is its unpleasant taste, reminiscent of ordinary decorative soap, which does not disappear even after prolonged heat treatment. The color is green, dotted with alarming red spots, the diameter of the cap reaches 13 centimeters. The stem is dense, white-green in color, the height ranges from 5 to 13 cm. The flesh is elastic, thin; if the mushroom is broken, it will take on a red tint. Prefers to “neighbor” with coniferous trees from August to November.
Pointed or mouse row
A frankly poisonous plant with a sharp “effect”, growing among pines and other conifers. A distinctive feature is a hat that resembles a small bell. The skin is thin, iridescent, hiding the gray flesh. The leg is white, with a slight gray coating, can reach 16 centimeters and expand closer to the ground. Old mushrooms often develop rusty spots, making the poisonous mushroom even more dangerous if eaten. The pulp has virtually no odor.
Beneficial features
Mushrooms can lower blood cholesterol levels
Representatives of different species belonging to the genus Ryadovka contain vitamins A, group B, PP, E. The pulp contains thiamine and riboflavin, as well as useful trace elements calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, copper, phosphorus, zinc. Chitin and fiber contained in the cell walls cleanse the intestines of toxins.
Forest gifts are not a low-calorie product; they quickly fill you up. Per 100 g from 30 to 40 kcal. The pulp contains almost no fats and carbohydrates; most of the mass is occupied by water and protein. Forest species contain all types of amino acids (including essential ones) that humans need for normal life.
Row mushrooms when consumed regularly:
- strengthen the immune system;
- lower cholesterol levels in blood vessels;
- improve vision;
- work as antioxidants;
- lower blood sugar levels.
Growing methods
Row mushrooms are often grown at home in closed greenhouses or in garden plots. You can simply plant them yourself by digging up forest soil with mycelium:
- The mycelium is mixed with soil on the site in a ratio of 2:1.
- Mycelium is planted in autumn at temperatures below +15℃.
- For better aeration, mushrooms need to be kept in order.
- To create the necessary conditions, the beds are protected from the sun and rain.
- When new mycelium forms, soil is added.
- After each harvest, it is necessary to add fresh soil.
Where do they grow?
It is important for anyone interested in preparing delicious mushroom dishes to know where the rows grow. They are most often found in types of areas characterized by sandy soils covered with moss. They grow mainly in coniferous forests and pine forests, which is why they are often called pine trees. In addition, rows often grow in parks and gardens. The very name of these mushrooms suggests that they grow in rows, which are often quite long.
It should be borne in mind that representatives of different varieties of rows prefer different habitats. For example, Mayweed can be found not only in coniferous forests, but also in deciduous forests, as well as in meadows and fields.
