    Looking for a radiator for a 150 about 8 years old, getting the most ridicuous prices quoted, any ideas anyone?

    as david but add dont panic, very early stages

    always remember that fruiting bodies is JUST SEX and nothing more, it requires two sexualy compatible myceliums to meet.

    A large area ( a vascular channel) of dysfunctional and now rotting wood is clearly visible, and also the reason for the slow and creeping (progressive) failure occurring as it twists, buckles and folds downward assisted by a lop sided and weighted crown. Wouldn't fell though, manage one far worse (like this one i suspect) has Laetiporus sulphureus, and in a high risk zone. I decided to maintain that one and keep it as its very handsome, large high amenity and all the body language suggests it will twist down and fold away from harm.

    as david says, and that mycelium IS Armillaria, probably ostoyea. it has been correctly identified and bootlaces are not always present, bootlaces are only needed for travel or extreme conditions
  8. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    my words exactly!
  9. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    This is misleading, probably not on purpose BROWN ROT DOES produce symptoms, sometimes subtle sometimes not, and in this case the extreme fluting is a sure sign of extensive heart rot which Paeolus is pretty much limited to in Pines unlike say Larix decidua and its in no way shape nor form Laetiporus sulphureus 'conifericola'

    I really dont mind how big it is, rather smaller and more detail than bigger and less, budget is around the 100 mark.
  20. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    thats about right IMO
  21. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    I think it may have been the nature of the way I searched via google, typed in FRDBI Phellinus pini, I got two records on a FRDBI page and as usual jumped to a conclusion!
  22. Tony Croft aka hamadryad

    what i love best is being ignored, then piping up loudly, only to be told to take a less "confrontational approach":lol: in other words shut up on all levels
  25. Tony Croft aka hamadryad
    Hi, did you record it with anyone? I looked and there is only 2 records as far as I can see, and I had three records while in the Cairngorms!
