I figure it isn't fair to track more crap on the original thread and it is only proper that those with a different experience regarding such things be heard.
But I started the thread so I'll go first.
The organism in question has several stages but in the end, the primary purpose of the mushroom is, as all creatures, to reproduce amd reproduce in a way that guarantees viability in genetics, I.e. Varying combinations that will help ensure adaptation of the species, and fresh approaches to environmental conditions.
So in this case the mushroom seeks to present spores, tiny packages of material that, when encountering the right conditions, will perpetuate the species. It seeks to present these spores to a situation that will best benefit propagation.
The fruit lends itself to that purpose, it rises above the ground and, when "ripe" and not beforehand, ejects spores with incredible force into the atmosphere.
What causes this process to begin when it does? Triggers and inhibitors. We seek to understand triggers and such because we want to induce fruiting amd induce it in a uniform and predictable way.
So let's talk about that.
