VERY DRY! Almost time for Hen's and Honeys but wont have any if we don't get any rain anytime soon. I am hoping for a 3 day stretch, preferably Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. LOL
Anyone fining anything? Moosehunter?
-
Just started pouring here.. No rain in the past month...
-
Got a little this morning, not nearly enough.
-
All over.. Just checked the soil and not ever an 1/8 of an inch of wetness....
Might be enough to green the grass... :-\
-
Most of our yard is pretty green only a few little brown spots. We've been watering the flower gardens rather than the lawn
Mrs. Peddler has lots of potted plants and gardens that require lots of water.
-
Need rain, food plot is suffering, Hope it comes Thursday like they say :-\
-
Yep, hoping for Thursday as well. I need some Hens to marinate and for other uses.

Just looked at the radar, it's just minutes away!
-
Couple hours before it gets here....
-
Just texted one of my charter buddies out on the lake and he said it's not raining out on the lake yet. It sure looks ugly on My Radar pro!
-
Took one of the dogs for a quick walk and made it about 1/4 mile and it started.

Nice ! any details on how you do them ?

carrots, celery, garlic, onion, olive oil and vinegar.

good luck on your trip!
-
Thanks Mooseslayer!
What type of mushrooms are you finding up your way right now? Any Hen of the woods? I think I am going to keep my eye open for some hens while I am on my trip, just not sure if they grow that for north...... I'm sure they do. Either way, I will definitely have a few bags handy just in case.
-
Had my 1st hens last nite with burgers ,very good on the hunt for more now !!
-
Been out twice more now and cannot locate a single hen or chicken !!!! I did however find a bunch of blewits i believe doing a spore print now ,and possibly a batch of honeys ,gonna have a more knowledgable than me check em .Also found a lot of larger whitish cone/funnel shaped one unable to identify yet
-
So far a great season for hens! Chickens were plenty as well. the last 4 seasons have been awful so its nice to have some dried hens for my stash! I will keep looking for more.
-
well with the pictures I showed the guy he said honey so I went back to get them and set my pack down there is my 1st hen about 4 lbs pretty cool ! I am looking all the time now .do you find them in the woods more or like parks and cemetaries peoples yard and such as the guy I know does The blewit ones he said no go even tho the spore print showed ok .
-
Hens can honestly be anywhere. Surround your self with Oaks and Maples and you should stumble upon some. Not sure where you are from but this has been one of my better seasons in the last 8 years. Get'um while the getting is good.
-
Hope to find more Oysters this weekend,opening of rifle up here tomorrow,i'll be deep in the beech and maples,hope to see a deer also....

Good luck! I don't see them around here until late November. I spotted a few more hens so I am just giving them a few more days to mature. Other than hens, honeys, and oysters - everything else is gone until next year!
Anyone else finding anything?

haven't found any oysters here in maine yet ! what do you do with your honeys ?
-
found about 4 lbs. of fall oysters last nov. looking for chaga. they were on a big old yellow birch frozen solid! looks like they came out and then flash froze before they could go bad. made for some good eats! gonna check that tree again soon!
-
I also marinate the honeys and/or use them for tomato sauce. Just like any other mushroom really. Honeys are nice because they stay crisp.
I will also be looking for some oysters this year. This is one mushroom I never really looked for before. but I do know of 2 trees that produced last year.
-
cool ,just landed a few fall oysters and 2 small lions mane today !! gonna try the lions maine tonite with supper look pretty interesting
-
Looked all weekend for oysters..nothing...a few greenies,,greenies are a smaller oyster family,sometimes they are brown too....
-
