Hunting rumor.
    #13103593 -

Somebody please tell me how the rumor "You have to go early in the morning" got started?? I get so aggravated when know it all kids tell me that I "Have" to go early in the morning. Or in the morning at all. I just want to put them in a triangle choke and shut them up!

In ancient times, when demons roamed with man, They hunted, loved and lost, hand in hand, As time went on, the difference between them faded. You couldn't tell anymore, demons and man were related, and some would say the same, but who would like to claim? In time, Gods had even forgot, Demons, too, once love had sought. In times recent I remember, Once I was a man, In my heart I had an ember, I'll relate the best I can but it was snuffed, one distant December. And yet here I stand, no flesh, no bones, no seed or semen, All that's left is this Demon.

Certainly helps to have your shrooms not trampled and covered in dog shit.

That's an opinion, btw, not a fact.

It really depends on where you live and the level of competition from other mushroom hunters that you have in your area.

If you live in an area where there isn't much pressure from other hunters, then it doesn't really matter.

I see... I didn't really think of it like that. Is there some sort of courtesy rule for a patch? If/ when I find a patch of weilii, should i leave about 1/2 for someone else.

I didn't think we were really competing.

lol, courtesy rule. Its picking an illegal drug from nature, not buying an 8th with a friend

Courtesy my arse. On public land? Every man for himself... and that's why you keep that shit to yourself.

In morel season I'm up well before the sun, and I like to get into the woods before actual daybreak.

Pick everything you need, not everything you can, don't be wasteful.

Which means making sure you know what it is that you're looking for!

Its smart not to pick every mushroom you find in a patch. I always leave at least a few to spore and decay to make sure they don't quit growing there. As far as going early in the morning, I also think it depends on the mushrooms your hunting. Cubies are a mushroom you want to go early for imo.

Surely they'll keep growing as long as the mycelium is still there?

If the mushroom can't complete it's life cycle as it evolved to do then it may have consequences further down the line. The mushrooms fruits and mycellium are part of the same organism so if you pick a mushroom you remove part of the organism. Perhaps more mushrooms will fruit in order to compensate though. Doubt anybody really knows. Probably is sensible not to overpick if you want lots of mushrooms in the future, just to be safe. Respect the shrooms and maybe they'll be good to you back.

i will add that some species like conocybes dont have a very long life span too. so they may be up i morning and already gone by the afternoon. so if i want more conocybes i have to be there in the morning. :shrug:
plus i will add that in mushroom season here, it gets really really foggy in the mornings which provides extra cover while sneaking through farmer johns field.
and the early bird gets the worm is the big one.

those are reasons why i hunt in the morning.

By the time you find a fully developed mushroom, it has already released millions of spores.
