How large can the Marasmius oreades grow?

depends on whether you want to know size of the fruiting body or the fairy ring itself (the mycelium). The fruits can reach a couple of inches in diameter for the cap and couple of inches in heights (average in the 1-2inches in both height and width, though usually slightly taller than wide). The fairy rings can reach considerable diameters (10-20ft, or larger) with enough time. Usually, the ring is disturbed or blocked by something before the maximum growth diameter is reached. Most I've seen personally only reach 2-3 ft in diameter, but I've seen a few as large as 5-6 feet across.


Why do mushrooms grow in circles?

Some fungi do indeed grow in rings, but perfect may not be quite accurate! Two species known for producing rings are Tricholoma Gambosum (St. Georges Mushroom - also known as Calocybe Gambosum or Lyophyllum georgii) and Marasmius Oreades (Fairy Ring Champignon). Myths ascribe the rings to fairies, witches, the devil dragons etc. but: "Fairy rings" (typically in three concentric rings) are caused by mycelium of fungi growing from a central starting point. As the mycelium grows, it produces changes in the organic matter of the soil. Ammonia is liberated and produces nitrates or ammoniacal salts, manuring the vegetation, & stimulating its growth. As the mycelium increases, it fills the air spaces in the soil so that rain- water has difficulty in percolating, at a time when the increased vegetation is making greater demands on the available water. This causes localised drought and the plants die, leaving a bare circle. The part behind dies off and water can now panetrate the soil and the dead fungus becomes food for the plants which invade the bare area and so on. Obviously the ring widens year on year. -- Jeremy Browne, Hampshire, UK Shaking Hands BBS, Fidonet 2:252/160 yall r stupid

Can you use jelly crystals to make fairy floss?

No, jelly crystals cannot be used to make fairy floss. Fairy floss, or cotton candy, is made by melting sugar and spinning it into fine threads, creating its unique texture. Jelly crystals are meant for making jelly desserts and do not have the same properties needed to create fairy floss.
