I'd like to plug a log with lions mane, read they're super good for you and taste like lobster or crab.
Ever find or eat any of them @duluthralphie ?

I have only seen them when they are way past prime. My cousins son find them where he lives about 30 miles from me.

I STILL have never tasted a morel! I'm dying to. Maybe this year. The only kind we've realy found so far is coral. It grows every year, just inside the wood line on a certain log. We always pick some but leave some to keep sporing.

I get coral around here, but have yet to get it at the proper stage for eating. I have a half a dozen or so Morels from last season to eat.

I find them sporadically spaced through out the woods, not just near Elm trees like the books say. I found the black ones in a alder brush patch and under box elder trees...

The ones at my farm are under Elms, but the ones at my parents house are under pine and persimmon, I believe they have had them under the apple as well. The first ones that my dad planted, he did by accident and they are growing in his front lawn in the shade from the house...

This year. I would have thought the deep south would be showing some by now.

I am impatient for these can you tell.

Thanks for the reminder...this website is great for getting the shroomer in me revved up and ready to go!
Morels, black and yellow, are the staple spring shroom for us. We find them in unglaciated terrain in association with large tulip trees, spicebush and old forest grapevine in southern Ohio. North of Columbus they can be found around ash and elm. Traditionally our season was late April-early May, right in line with the spring gobbler hunt. But the season is more erratic now with the changing climate, and I've picked blacks as early as late march in recent years. It won't be long now!
