Got some Morels..

[cam]

Stumbled onto some morels, definitely a good year for them. These are a bit larger than what I usually find around here. Personally, I dont care for em...not a big fan of any mushrooms.. but my woman sure likes em as a side to her grilled chicken or steak. I just prepare em.

Patricimo and JC...

I usually find our morels growing in old leaf litter in older growth areas. Due to the color of them, they may not me easy to spot, but your eye gets trained to em....these were just too big to miss, though..

Patricimo, you know these blackjack oaks that we got around here? I've often seen them growing up in the tangle of branches that grow real close to the ground. Also, I've found them growing in the bare ground around cedar trees, too. If you can find one, you'll usually find more.

Hope that helps. Sometimes they're just hard to find. I've looked for years before I finally was able to find some.

High acid soil is not as good as low acid soil, popular, maple, or beech vrs pine or oak, old orchards , fertile soil is best. rotton logs Steve
