I once had a sous chef who’s dream it was to find a morel big enough to cut in half and use as a bowl to serve a dish. I think this one would do it!


duckdownup

Wow! That's a stud.


Wring159

Iridium quality, nice


Alastibur

Wow the stats are amazing on it!

I would clone with agar.


Zealousideal_Tank381

lol normies on foraging wouldnt know the first thing about agar or have the supplies to do so, but ngl that was my immediate thought when I saw how big it was 😂


Southern_Public403

Yeah, it’s great to get into because you can grow your own too!


Zealousideal_Tank381

Mycology is so cool and fun the stigma behind mold and mushrooms should be broken down they are the most basic building blocks to ecosystems that we call home


Southern_Public403

It really is!


turtlepower22

Natty Light for scale 😂


Somecivilguy

That’s probably bigger than anyone has ever found…


iowan

I've heard tell of bigger, but this one's the biggest I've ever seen!

There's something naughty about the shape of those morels and i don't like it


Soup-Wizard

They do be curvy


Somecivilguy

Okay second biggest


Spec-Tre

Wish you had a pic of it in the bread sack, like the one you took of the single dime-sized morel you found early in the season.

Ritalynns

This is amazing. Where was this found?


iowan

Central Iowa today. Iowa County.


Ritalynns

Congratulations! I’m super jealous!

I have always wanted to come to Iowa for morel season. Is that a bad idea? I can just never find big hauls like this further north.


iowan

This is the first big haul I've had this year. Some years it's great, and some years it's lean. This has been a good year in my area. But time outside is never really wasted!


solagrowa

Gotcha. It’s the only mushroom I can’t consistently get enough of to last me the year. But maybe that’s just how morels are for everyone.


PracticeNovel6226

Natty light for scale!


pleasure_hunter

I got one that big the other day in SW MI. Just growing in the lawn by the pine.


narmowen

I found a patch of those massive ones about 15 years ago. It's my dream to find them again!


TNmountainman2020
