KCRM where you at dude? I'll be seeing you soon.
help out to get the board under control, people we are going to have to search thre 35 threads to find one that means anything to your area if we don't clean it up now. Not trying to be a d$#& just saying,

Nothing out in Eastern Jackson/ West Lafayette county yet. Mayapple's are about 2 inches tall and the soil temp is just about perfect. Any day now!!!
Found a few large red cup mushrooms. Anyone have any info on these, I cant find much online about them. Found all of them growing directly out of rotting sticks.

Newrocker - there is a Scarlet Cup mushroom that grows out of wet sticks and branches. Probably the one you are talking about. It is NOT edible.

 

[newrocker15]

Thank you LeAnn, I didnt think it was. I have just never noticed them before and was curious.

[miss shroom]

Oh our God! I am so confused what happen to all the shroomers and the info.

 

[super picker]

What hunters are you looking for? Maybe i could help with some info, what do you want to know?

 

[miss shroom]

Im just wanting to know what happen to all mushroom hunters that would post info about finding mushrooms and how many and where. It was confusing to get here you know. On a better note I haven't found any shrooms yet Im thinking this weekend or next what do you think?

 

[livewire]

<strong>If they ain't posting they're Pickin!

Miss Shroom:

Sorry to be so blunt but instead of waiting to poach peoples spot info you should do what every good hunter does. Go hunting. That is much more productive then waiting to see what area people find them in and invade their spots.

We are not picking in KC YET LIVEWIRE but it won't be long. Things are looking good. Saw a report of some smalls in south KC metro area. No pic but I think it is legit.
Miss Shroom for some reason a lot of the older posters on here are not around this year. I will admit the 'New" look to the Morels.Com web site looks different at first but if you will spend a little time looking around I think you will see it is better than before. On the front page the post there are the most recent topics that are being discussed, for a specfic stae click on the message board tab. when inside a topic at the top of the page to the left you will see your options,at the top of this page it says KC Metro area, below that are blue links that will take you to other places, this one is Morels.co, fourms, and then the main Missouri tab.
Good luck

One other thing Miss Shroom have you checked out MorelHunters.com yet. Join up and if you will look at the KC Metro board you might see an offer from me that may intice you to join. I will extend the dead line to join since the season is starting at a more normal pace this year.

 

[topmorel]

up north in liberty going to check a few spots later. seems a bit to early but who knows... keepn my fingers crossed for some little grays.

 

[kcfungusfanatic]

Found a False Morel, Devil's Urn and some other mushrooms. No morels yet, but this year I have noticed areas that "smell like morels." Has anyone else noticed this? Does it mean anything?

 

[kc rm hunter]

I smell them sometimes too KCFungusFanatic

 

[parkvillemark]

I'm guessing, from past seasons, that this year the season should start a little late, like 4/22. Does anyone know the soil temps. in the KC area?

About 54-61 at the moment, depending on where your located. But the cold temperatures will be running down the ground temp's a tad. But no big deal, it shouldn't shock the green again
