I miss mushrooming..i'm disabled now my legs and hips won't take it anymore.. and yes I miss hunting them. I have no one that will bring me some. I used to take my mom a couple of messes...😢 tremendously!
Same here, now there are places that you can buy them you just have to search wherever you're at, they're usually around 50 to $60 a pound but to me it's worth it! 😊
What state. Not trying to steal your spot just trying to get a feel for the temperature.
I'm in central Indiana, and it's looking like my area has basically been skipped. They started early and we had a cold front dropped a half inch of sleet followed by 2 frosts. I've found quite a few but not nearly like normal 100 miles north has been finding more and better we may get another flush. Though happy hunting
We call the small ones tulip morsels
yeah, I learned the term from old timers and have found patches of more than hundred several times in stands of old poplar, most of them don't get real big
hmm...Ive found over 100 dead turtles, their shells, and only 6 morels...guess them critters are starving here lol
Lol, that's a lot of turtles, maybe their like elephants and you've found a graveyard 🤣. Or there's a critter there that eats the snot out of turtles.
@getyasomeoutdoors9507 Probably some kind of spill, or poison or pollution killing those turtles. I would keep an eye on that, if you really found that many shells of dead turtles. Not good
I’m in Southwest Michigan, and we never find many of them around here. We find a few here and there and maybe end up with a dozen for the entire season! We used to live further inland and further south near the area and it was much better hunting down there. Wondering where you’re at in the country?
Central indiana, I'm surprised I know the Niles area of MI, does very well and I'm sure they are up.
@@getyasomeoutdoors9507l’ve been picking them for two weeks in Missouri eating mushrooms every day . I love this time of year sadly it’ll soon be over . Happy picking and eating my friends.
You might want to go very slow because they're everywhere in that spot you're at
250 I'll be back that location is full sun 🌞
Are you looking for dead and dying cherry trees, like for elms, Or alive?
Alive cherry trees but the good one's usually have damage. Once you start finding them you'll usually notice they are growing right by the fallen branches of the trees. If it's leaning hard they'll be under the leaning side. Hickory trees do this too. I'll show that soon
@@getyasomeoutdoors9507 thank you, can’t wait!
good info dude, nice hull! funny when i find them honey holes, theyve always been bout 40 yards long and bout 15 or 20 yards wide in poplar and a few cherry. happy hunting, 💚 from W.V.
That sweet you bring them to your grandparents! You must have some good DNA if they’re in their 90s! I am taking applications for future son-in-law’s if you’re interested lol❤
I try to give to those who can't go anymore
to me, turtles mean the grounds warm enough for morels
Very well could be. I've never thought of that perspective, but now you mention it I don't see them when I'm shed hunting. Thanks for that tidbit of information 👍!
We find the blacks around the black cherry trees. That’s primarily all we find in this area.
Fresh blacks are my favorite, I'm lucky to find 10-15 a year though. It didn't used to be that way. We use s to find mostly blacks.
I love when I find the perfectly dehydrated ones too!! Score I think I might head out next weekend to my spot
It seems to get windier and windier every year. Been awhile since my area has had primo conditions. Good luck they are definitely into Michigan now, and central indiana is about done. We may get another flush. Definitely a poor year in my area. North and South did well. Good luck
I thought you were supposed to cut the shoots!😊
I do usually, you can just leave the base, 2 reason they will come up exact location. And you don't have to clean dirt. Fingernails work as scissors
Can I ask what state you are picking in?
Central indiana, it just got going
Great finding ❤where are you?
West Central Indiana been a rough season honestly. Last 3 days have been rough.
i love morel hunting it's the reason i live
Me too I'm a 40 year old little kid
@@getyasomeoutdoors9507 im 60
It's funny I just went to one of my spots this evening. Morels grow there every year. I found them March 26 they were further along than previous years. April 4th I picked a couple and left one to spore out. It's was damaged. So today I went back 4/16. I found 7 that I missed early. If I would have went 10 more yards I would have found them. I picked 2, the others were a little past their prime. So I left them. But right there next to them was a box turtle. Lol. I immediately thought about what you were saying about box turtles.
I find them a lot near mushroom spots, even when they were on indianas' endangered list. I almost never find a mushroom with a true bite taken out of them though. That's the only reason for my skepticism! 👍
@@getyasomeoutdoors9507 I think snails and slugs chew on them more than any box turtle. I say if the turtles want a bite have at it. Box turtles lay eggs every year near my garden. I have videos and pictures of them year after year females laying their eggs here. I even have pictures of them mating one year. I let cover for them grow on my place so they must like it. It's cool to see them come back year after year.
