So I have a question about Jaw Breaker Mushrooms .
What is actually considered a Jaw Breaker does it only have the Red or Green line in it or could it be that golden orange color .I have the opportunity to make a purchase and like to be a bit more familiar with it before I make a decision. I have seen many with the beautiful red line that I know is considered a jawbreaker but when they don’t have any lines are they still technically a jawbreaker mushroom

They are a type of mushroom, not really a color. There are classic Yellow/Red/sometimes green ones, Red/Purple (Deadpools), Orange/Green (Candy Crush), Orange/Green/Purple (Purple Monster), and some that are just one color.

They're a cool mushroom, but a slow grower!

Yeah... "Jawbreaker" is like a family of mushrooms with several different "flavors".

The traditional Jawbreaker is predominantly the gold/orange color with specks, stripes or patches of red. They can also have green (less common), or even all the colors (much less common). Within the "traditional" Jawbreakers, there are also several types... TDF, Poletti, Andre's, BSA, etc. Each "strain" tends to have a consistant "type" (i.e. colors) that they produce.

There are also Candy Crush, Deadpool, VDM, Purple Monster, Eclectus and Kryptonite which are all jawbreaker TYPE mushrooms with different color mixes.

It can get pretty confusing until you learn what to look for, what's "worth more", etc.

Thank you for that information I went with these beautiful ones
