Photos from open sources Mushrooms can provoke rains, but this is not about some mysticism, but about a unique biological ability these amazing organisms.
Reproductive disputes
Employees at the University of Miami conducted a study and found out that reproductive spores from fungi contribute to moisture droplets in the atmosphere. Researchers are sure that colossal volumes of fungal spores in the air create a peculiar aerosol, and due to the accumulation of water, rain showers provoke.
Active reproductive spores that separate from fungi attract moisture condensing in the air, creating in the atmosphere the smallest droplets of water like fog. When content suspended moisture in the air becomes the maximum possible, it falls to the ground in the form of heavy rain. Americans note that it is easy to notice. It is necessary to go through a shower in the autumn, after which mushrooms grow in nature, as a whole series begins mushroom rains.

Rain on request
Using Advanced Electron Microscopes, American experts carefully studied the spores of fungi placed in special container with gaseous medium and increased humidity. Several dozens were selected for the experiment. varieties of mushrooms, including seven species of russula. All disputes quickly began to become covered with water, while some cells became come together to form larger droplets.
It is worth noting that in nature there are species of mushrooms capable of throw up to thirty thousand reproductive spores into the air second, therefore the ability of these organisms to provoke precipitation, if you look, it doesn’t look so fantastic. By the way, six years ago, Russian scientists calculated that every year in the atmosphere more than fifty million tons of mushroom are thrown out of our planet dispute – for every square millimeter of the Earth on average about a thousand disputes, including the oceans and regions with eternal permafrost.
Thus, when the mushroom rains begin in the fall, you will sure that these unique organisms (not animals and plants) they themselves “order” humid weather.
