My thought is boletus subtomentosus. but it was growing in sand on a bank which had recently been cleared of nettles. only slight staining when cut(A faint blue line just above the gills) which disapeared after 20 mins ive tried for a spore print no result. main cap has remained yellow now for several hours. no real smell. gills have now turned green 6 hours later. cap has a definate suede feel. i am also bothered by the red colouring to the base of the stem. So what do the experts think?? Please no microscope suggestions.
regards tn
