FAQ
Are mushrooms growing around Karlovy Vary right now?
The foraging index above answers that: 0–3 means poor conditions, 4–6 average, 7–10 excellent. It is computed from soil moisture and temperature, the past week of rain, and each species’ season window.
When is the best time to go foraging?
Fruiting bodies emerge roughly 7–14 days after substantial rain, while the soil stays warm and moist — exactly the window the index tracks as its "trigger". The "Best day" marker in the 7-day forecast above gives the concrete recommendation.
How is the foraging index calculated?
From five measured Open-Meteo inputs (soil moisture and temperature, rain, air temperature and humidity), weighted by species phenology — porcini, chanterelles, boletes and honey fungus. A 0–10 scale, updated daily.
