While you need the moisture, its those temp fluctuations that trigger the fruitt. Blacks tend to be a colder weather morel and they are pretty rare in my area. Stumbled on a spot about 5 years ago while walking around a new woods researching trees. They've been finding blacks in far northern IN and southern MI over the last week so I thought I'd check the spot out. Rain coming and some cooler temps so I didn't pick them, they were pretty small and didn't want to disturb the mycelium. I've gotten as much as 30 out of this spot and as few as 0 lol.

Think we could have a good year around hear if we can keep getting weekly light rain and good temperature fluctuations. Late winter cold like we had this year usually makes for a good season as long as we get some average rain.

Hunt Well!
