It's TIME!!!

[pheasantpro10]

It's time to get out and start looking, couple buddies and I went on sunday and found about 15, most of them were grays it sure was nice to get out again, and no ticks hope everyone has good luck and enjoy.

What part of the state was this discovery made? Not gonna waste my gas/time if your finding them way south.But if its a metro find,I may have to explore.By the way,congrates on the find.

I checked out my early location today, nothing.

[leech~~]

Huuum, seems a little soon yet since it was only 31F out on Monday and rain snow over the weekend? But, thanks for the heads up. I'll go out tonight and check.

If I had to guess where morels in southern Minnesota are being found right now, I'd say exposed southern slope with light sandy soil.

We had a light frost in southeast Iowa Monday night and last night, with daytime highs in the upper fifties; our morel production has all but stopped. A few of my early spots here have kicked out some small grays, and that is it.

I was down in fillmore county and yes they were on the sunny side of the slope. It sure does get the heart pumping when you find that first one of the year LOVE IT!!!

[leech~~]

I went out and checked tonight and nothing yet. I'm thinking at least another week north of the metro yet.

You might be right leech,im thinking they may start to pop good by the 14th.Looks like the conditions over the next week may lend itself to some spring time growing.By the 21st things could be goin gangbusters,i just hope temps dont rise fast after that or it could be a short season.

Heading for fillmore county today...we'll see.

Wear some Orange, lots of Turkey hunters running around down there still! Or just don't let out any chuckles "clucks" when you find some!

[JIvers]

Looks like southern Minnesota is getting some rain at just the right time...

I'll be back in Fillmore County in a week and a half; I expect the big yellows to be up by then, if the forecast is close to right.

[Matt Breuer]

Be awhile up here yet. The ramps are just starting to get leafy and the ferns are still furled tight to the soil. Went on Tues. and didn't see much sign of any life in the north country....

east metro first checked spot of every year is still bare. mid week to next weekend perhaps.

[Stringerless!]

Went to one of my tried and true spots too in the north metro. Nothing but deer ticks !

[deerhunter]

Hi everyone,

[Papa Grump]

Welcome to HSO ! Here is some pics from today. Bottom pic is about half of the total , plus some leeks too.

[leech~~]

Nice Shroom! I'm starting to find a few yellows mixed with the grays!

[shooter_mcgavin]

Found some yellows in Dakota County last night in an open grassy clear-cut. Checked my spots in the woods but nothing yet.

[flipper]

I went searching for about an hour in my haunts in south central MN and found nothing yesterday.

[zero]

went back out last night and found another 40 or so on some new land. showed the land owner what they look like and he took me to other place where he had seen that type of mushroom years ago, yup, he was right. picked a bunch more.

[Stringerless!]

Found 2 small greys today.

[DARK30]

They're definitely poppin. The pickers are poppin too ... I found some stumps in a couple spots. They didn't get um all tho
