Spring is the season of Georgia or Tricoloma Calocibe Gambosa. However, it seems that this very rainy and cold spring has created some problems to the much sought after mushroom as its appearance late in coming or at least not as generous as in past years.

The gender shift is mainly due to the chemical dell'imenoforo such as cyanophilia siderofilia of spores and basidia were not present in Tricholoma.
