MOREL BIOPROSPECTING 2024 EP1, Disciotis or Gyromitra???
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 чер 2024
- First foraging trip of 2024 hunting for Disciotis and Gyromitra sp. in the middle of April in the Western NY hardwoods. Planning on spending a good amount of time hunting for Morel strains this spring to experiment with for propagation. Heavy rains have the Brown False Morels (G. brunnea) and cup mushrooms popping up everywhere. Still not sure on the ID of the cup mushrooms (pending spore analysis). Let me know what you think in comments.

Subscribing now. Was taught that half free morels were false morels and now I know to eat all of them! I have eaten all four of the the gyromitria after short boil and they're so good but I don't eat them a lot. So tempting because they're some of the best to eat, try with ramen.
I was referring to the four main ones, brunnea, korfii, Caroliniana and esculenta. The one you found first is one I haven't found maybe good job
Excited commenting still lol for you morel hunters a good tip is the 50 plus degree overnight temps are signature for when it's time to go out.
Half-free Morels are just starting to pop in my area of NY, they are one of my favorites. I should be picking them this coming week. Thanks for watching and subscribing 👊
I believe the mystery plant at the 2:13 minutes point was Northern maidenhair fern, Adiantum pedatum.
I am seeing them in our woods here in PA.
Cool, thank you. They are everywhere here in the spring.
Doesn't look like maiden hair to me. Possibly wild sarsaparilla
You can identify the cup morel pretty easily.
It smells strongly like chlorine!
This one does not smell like that to me, which is one of the things that pushes me towards Gyromitra leucoxantha. But I've never seen photos of them so strongly veined like these. I'm trying to collect some spores for microscopic analysis. That should tell me alot.
Are those species pretty good eating?
Many people eat certain species of Gyromitra, but significant caution should be exercised because they contain varying levels of the toxin gyromitrin. The levels seem to vary greatly by species and more research needs to be done. With species that contain low levels, people typically process them by boiling and discarding the water before cooking thoroughly. I have personally only eaten Gyromitra brunnea (one of the species thought to contain very little gyromitrin) in small quantities using the boiling then cooking thoroughly method and they tasted very much like true morels to me.
