Holy Mother of all Morel Mushroom Masters, Batman! I have watched 4-5 RU-vid videos trying to find good Morel hunting guidance and BOOM, finally hit the Mother Load. Thank you X 100 for this rich-in-content video masterpiece, delivered with superior palatability. I'm also in Washington and was concerned about Morel availability here. No more worries! I'll be baaaaaack.

This was so informative! Thank you, I really enjoyed your video and now I'm super excited to find some morels! I live in Detroit, Michigan but I camp a lot and take my dogs walking on a lot of trails. Last year I found a BUNCH of chicken and hen of the woods mushrooms! It was so exciting!

@YellowElanor 3 года назад

I have researched RU-vid for Morel mushroom information, for about one year now. Though there are plenty of them out there but your video trumps them all, in my opinion.

Great video Rachel! I really appreciate your genuine love for mushrooms and your passion to learn more and teach what you know! You’re just as excited with the last one you found as you are with the first one, and that I can relate with! Although lately, I haven’t been hunting too much .... I recently moved to the west coast of British Columbia, from the interior:... the west coast has vastly different climate and forest type than what I’m used to... it Rains a lot here and the forests are crazy thick, black berries and ferns and moss everywhere ! all sorts of green stuff! I’m not used to so much green! And I don’t know where to look for morels! I’m use to a pretty temperate climate and I know just where to look I’m my home area, but out here I have had little luck... although I haven’t dedicated much time to searching for morels , mainly because I don’t know the areas and I’ve been doing more fishing instead, but I’ve also felt discouraged because I’m out of my element, but I really want to get back out there and feel the joy of finding the morels like you showed in this video. Took me years to find good producing morel spots in my home forests, out here seems like a lot harder hunting. Any advice?

I was told not to pluck them out. But cut them so they can regrow the following year.

@YellowElanor 3 года назад

This is a common misconception, I actually have a video discussing cutting mushrooms vs plucking them. Overall, neither method seem to be more beneficial to the mushroom production. Ultimately, when a mushroom is cut, the part that is left behind simply rots away, it does not regrow. The mycelium--which is the underground root like structure of a fungi--is what continues to live all year and then produces new mushroom structures when the season is right.

It's hard to kick myself out the door in spring and go look for these. Feels like a wild goose chase when you don't actually know the whereabouts of an existing patch. That, and there's little else to fall back on in the spring on Vancouver Island. I don't like oyster mushrooms, and I don't trust myself when it comes to identifying boletes. At least in the fall when I go looking for pines and strike out, I can still come home with chanterelles, hedgehogs, yellow foot chanterelles, bleeding milk caps, chicken mushroom, cauliflower mushroom, etc. I need a buddy to show me a morel patch in the spring to get me kickstarted!
