2017 Morel Update HERE

Saw the first find of the year on the Georgia site.

 

Looks like last year March 17th was the first reports.

 

I saw the dot on his map but the report said Jefferson, Indiana. I mapped it just to see how close to OH it was. It's slightly NW of Indianapolis. Was a little shocked to see a find anywhere in Indiana this early. I may be headed to OH sooner than later . . . .

 

Wonder if that is Jefferson County?

 

The one listed on the 20th from Ireland is a Black, the others you mention are a Gray variety my friend.

Thank God someone started a new thread for this season.. Having to jump to page 101 to see current post was getting aggravating.. I looked at the post on Matherly's page, about the Morel find in Jefferson.. I find it hard to believe that greys are popping up anywhere in Indiana right now.. I'm 60 miles north of Indy, and while it has been an extremely warm winter, the ground Temps are no where close to where they need to be for the greys to pop.. The warmest reading I've seen in my yard was 43, and that thermometer was in the sun on a day that it was almost 70 outside.. There's no doubt that if this weather keeps up this season is going to start early, but I'm not even expecting to see any blacks for another few weeks around here.. The way things look right now, I'm planning on taking my vacation time the 3rd week of April.. Last year, my best week of hunting was from April 23nd - 30th..

 

Those are blacks in the photo. They will appear a very pale yellow to yellow tan in color. I know that sounds ate up but its true. Also keep in mind there are 2 different types of black morels, I say there is 3 or more. However im not a mycologist. I could be wrong, but I would say that report is bogus. However I have been told I was full of it on early finds too.

 

Hi fellow shroomoligists..since last years early attach of spammers and naysayers, i will be sure to document my first find this season as a few of us did last year.
The hunt is sure to be on in the near future and i hope its a banner year..peace out.

 

Lol, 400 acres guy. I remember that scam a couple years ago. How long do I need to be a member of the website until I get to update my photo?

 

What can i say...Im a dirty old man and a moron at the same time...its a burden but i must try dammit...lol

 

Guy on Kentucky bd. said he found some in Jefferson Co. Kentucky which is L-ville area.

 

Posted pics of my Louisville,KY find on Matherly's site because I can't figure out how to post pics here.
