With Mushroom season a week or so away I figured I'd kick off a new thread. I'm more than ready to start wading through the ticks and skeeters to hunt for some delicious mushrooms(and turkeys). I wa

I wore out a pair of boots the past couple yrs and never found a single morel. 

Mowing a clients lawn I ran over two huge ones before I realized what they were.  

Found several on the edge of clients lawns last yr.  Figured I'd take the mower through the woods this yr.

Ive heard reports of a few early morels in Cattaraugus county, Buffalo, Poughkeepsie, and the Hudson valley.
I checked a few of my spots late last week before the cold snap with no luck. I had 1/2" of snow on my lawn Sat and Sunday morning so it seems like we'll need a good week of temps in the 60's with lows above 40 to get the soil temp back up.
Should be seeing some pop within 2 weeks.
This just means that we can focus on turkeys for the first week or so!

I’m stuck at another teacher detention today but heading to the woods after our 1:30 release time.(instead of cutting grass- sorry Biz!). May give a few nature study woods in Westchester a check- no idea if they EVER exist in these places but the surrounding ground cover of your pics look similar

These are NOT the edible fiddleheads, correct?
Seem quite “hairy” and not “papery” cover on the curl

You can tell by the back there will be a groove instead of a round stem

But only use the groove method for new growth. Those old dead stems might have a groove.
