That spot probably won't pop for for six year's minimum.This technique is long term. Like most things in life that are long term, they are reliable and pay off BIG. We will be visiting some spots soon that have been paying off for year's. Those spots received these same techniques. Thank you so much for your support.

Nope doesn't hurt a thing. Accept my feet when I get home. People all ready doubt the spore block. I would to,but I've seen the results. See ya Tattooed Granny.

I think it is a neat idea.

I've been doing this about ten years. I have seen a couple spots explode with morelly's. It's got be where morels already grow.

Do spore blocks fall into the category of "common sense" Common Sense?

@@johnnyfish6051 absolutely I wouldn't see why not.....

Yessss!

I'm currently in county jail....booked for distribution of spores.

Alright gate keeper. Thanks!!

True! Who's play'n Who?

@@johnnyfish6051 we are going to end up flying those spores to Mars or further

Sure Trav..more for me i guess. I'll make you eat them words while eating more morels.. Stay tuned.......Hehe. Thanks!

Maybe. But don't get me wrong. Nobody truly understands the great Morel. I've just been doing this for a long time....a long time NOT finding them is what has made me. These are the common morel aka Morchella Americana or White Morel as an educated mycologist would describe them. I'm not one. There are about a dozen different species of morels right now and that's constantly changing. I and say I,call the the bigs in this video Yellows most wood classified these as whites or commons. I believe them be their own species, for now that could change. This belief is based on the striations in the stems. This is not common. These bigs were do to mist and fog in combination with the Sycamore leaf duff. Those morels EMERGED from the ground. They stayed under that duff for approximately two weeks protected from wind, sun and heavy rain. After a few weeks of slow growth under that duff they got 48 hrs.of all day mist and fog and high temperatures in the 40's. Cool weather after they pop promotes slow growth, a long season, and Big Morels! While these conditions when Morels are just forming UNDER the topsoil create "clusters". Rich ground, lots of moisture but not standing water, filtered sun light, cool weather( bellow 50) and that Sycamore leaf duff! Those were 10" shrooms some weighed half a pound on their own! And were UNDER the leaves. So lucky to find them! WOOooo long one. Credit the leaf duff! Thanks.

Yes. Turnning dark is normal as most wood or wood fibers will do during decay.

Also, you should let the morel fully dry so it " spores out." A fresh morel will have spores in it, but a fully aged and dried morel will have MORE, lots more. Next time do a spore print of the morel first. Then add it to the mix. A morel needs atleast a few weeks drying to produce all its spores and be fully productive. Thanks!

Any time. I believe spores stay dormant until need.

If anything the block slowly breaks down over time and at some point spores will be used as needed.

Good eye! Shouldn't be much walnut in there. Those slabs were all chain saw cut even the cross cuts. But very good point and type of sawdust definitely needs to be discussed. The walnut are my sons project some spindles if their in the background might have been cut on the table but not much. Off topic, I don't like walnut, too dark though I have turned a few salad bowls with it and some inlays. The lighter colors in the mix was grey to the core old exterior barn cedar. But to be honest there's pvc, fiberglass, recycled wood paint poly, glue from plywood, pressed board. Yeah whole things bio hazardous. But the soil along the rivers i pick have way more contamination in it than my spore blocks including....drum roll!.... fungicide! See ya THANKS!

Someday they will be for sale. Not right know. Watch my show more to come!

What's up Journeyman. I'm just sitting here shaking my head giggling. I've been asked this 645 times in 24 hrs. I gota get a secretary to type KANSAS for me over and over. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.........Kansas, The free state, home of Kaw, land of Oz, Rock Chalk......somebody say it!
