Are these immature? Uncinatum?

Would the group recommend getting a pH meter to test soil pH? If so, does anyone have a recommendation of a good meter?

We had a ruff day last week, whilst having a tooth removed Ralph had a cardiac arrest. Thankfully the team were quick to react and here he is resting at home. Heading to mature native woodlands tomorrow for a bit more training and exploring.

Hi, I was out yesterday on one of my regular orchard visits, approx. 10 years old & 2nd season producing truffles. We’ve had a good start to the season usually collecting 1kg+ per visit. Yesterday we found only 3 truffles, less than 200g with 3 dogs for about an hour. What was noticeably different was the amount of fungi showing on the floor - Roll rim mushrooms / Paxillus Involutus, so I’m assuming there’s a battle going on between the different Mycellium & the mushrooms are winning at the moment due to weather / time of year. Has anyone else experienced this & how long did it last before the yields were back up? Thx Jon & Tembo.

She has progressed from the truffle oil baits to the real thing, this is her very first find. So proud of her ❤️.
