@myco_motion: What looks like smoke is something far more fascinating. These spores were filmed both in the wild (first and last clip) and from cultivated grey oyster mushrooms in my garden (middle section). I bought the mycelium for these logs several years ago from @Svamphuset – no paid promotion. Grey oysters are one of my favourite edible mushrooms, and also one of the species that produce the densest and most visually striking spore releases. Would you like to witness this yourself?

Dr Caustic :

Mushroom spores are microscopic reproductive units, similar to seeds, produced by fungi to disperse and germinate into new mycelium. Typically released in massive quantities from the gills, pores, or spines of a mushroom cap (often basidiomycetes), they are essential for identification, with features like color, shape, and size varying by species.  Key Details About Mushroom Spores: Production & Structure: In basidiomycetes, spores develop on basidia (club-shaped cells), usually in groups of four, on structures like gills or pores. They often feature an apiculus for attachment and an apical germ pore for germination. Identification: Spore prints (color deposits) are critical for identification, though color can vary based on density or the age of the mushroom. Reproduction: A single spore germinates into a monokaryotic mycelium, which must fuse with another compatible mycelium to form a dikaryotic mycelium capable of producing mushrooms. Types: Spores are classified based on their producing structure, such as basidiospores (basidiomycetes) or ascospores (ascomycetes).
