YEA!

I do believe he has already made a video about this.

He did show that... very end of the video

Butter, s&p and garlic

Found me some today!

Same in KY,it turned cold at night ,28-29,degree😊

Yes I got the urge real bad after that warm spell but the weather decided it wasn’t going to cooperate and back down in the twenties. Probably another week or so . I hope I can do as good as last year ,got 6 gallons just N.W. of K.C. last year .

Yea ,same here in KY.we get a nice couple days then it's.down in the 20s

Where in west Michigan are you? I have some mushroom fantasies too.

Think of it in terms of fishing . The right conditions may not be obvious at first glance . Look for structure . Habitat and terrain edges , both large and small scale . Creek and River banks , hillsides , even sinkholes . All this in addition to the presence of suitable symbiate tree species , like elm , poplar , cedar , ash , even cottonwoods and sycamores . . The greater the number of species the better the odds . Look for stressed / dying trees , or , recently dead trees . Morels fruit in response to changes in nutrient availability , such as when a symbiate organism is stressed or damaged , dying , etc . Recently burned areas or recently disturbed areas are also good . Of course you need the right temperatures , moisture , etc in addition . I have found morels in all sorts of places most would never think to look . From pond dams and drainage ditches , roadsides , growing right up through the gravel in a dry creek bed , even squeezing out of cracks in asphalt driveways .I have rarely failed to find them within a short walk from my house wherever I have lived , even in cities . Low swampy areas that rarely flood completely but are generally not developed or farmerd due to being constantly wet , are very common and often overlooked . Watch for subtle differences in the ground , such as small hummocks or mounds of dirt , old rotted root balls from an uprooted tree , animal burrow , whatever . These high / low spots create small.microclimates on and among them and you can often find morels here , even late into the season . And don't forget to go slow and take your time . Even moving a few hundred feet can require you to retrain your eye . Moving fast is a sure way to miss them .

I'm a Hoosier native too and found gobs up there. I moved to the S. Cumberland Plateau TN six years ago and haven't found any morels...yet.😉

Check out places around your area where there was forest fires!

@@timbowen8350 there aren't really much in the way of forest fires here, it's too wet, but I'll check out some logged areas, thanks

Take all the advice and experience you have , then look for terrain / habitat edges . Especially sinkholes . I know the Plateau every which way , including inside out . Look along the major geological contacts , where shales and sandstones meet the limestone . This usually produces a very distinct flat bench along the mountainside , and is where the sinkholes form as the water from above augers into the earth . Watch your step . Some of them holes go straight down for hundreds of feet . Lower down toward the valley bottoms , look along the transition between woods and fields , and , along any stream beds dry or not .

@@kaboom4679 Thank you very much. Are they still in season or are they about done down here?

Brian the morels come up on the south facing ridges first. Good luck this may be your year. I just found 30 this morning. A good start to the season.

Remember when the red buds are topping the mushrooms are popping !!!

Trade? Nah, those decades are behind me now!

​@@JuniorFarquardecades, huh 😂?

I don’t believe they did. I’m in brown county and have checked south of me just walking through the woods and we are a week or two out I believe

These cold blasts just reset the game so to speak . Don't worry , you can catch them on the next warming cycle .

No it does not ruin anything 😂 if they grow there they will usually always be there. I've tested every stupid theory in the book. I never use onion sacks either. Never ever had it effect my picking. It's all weather dependent bottom line

Thanks for the info.@@weldmonger1560

If you carry them in a mesh bag while you forage, it may help spread the spores.

Don't look at the leaves look at the bark. Very easy to identify that way

@@weldmonger1560 says you! Every time I think I’ve got it figured I don’t! But, this video did help me

Nice! Another michigander here. I live in Allegan and find quite a few every year. I think we are still another 2-3 weeks out here as of 3/31/24

That's because they were ate raw. They put them in a salad.

It was in Montana and was not usual morel eating

He didn’t set out to go mushroom hunting. He chose to not let a ruined fishing trip ruin his mood… Some people don’t like being miserable and being ugly towards others…

😂 whatever dude!!

Fake news

I won't make a stink about the plastic bags pro or con. Do whatever you feel. But after 40 years of "only use mesh" and "never pull out the root," I've started following the science, which says that neither makes a difference.
