Caring for Morel Mushrooms

In the classification of organisms, morel mushrooms fall under the Fungi kingdom, not the Plantae kingdom. Mushrooms don't have roots, and don't produce seeds. In some ways, they are as different from plants as they are from animals.

To grow morel mushrooms, you must try to replicate their favorable growing conditions outdoors. If you don't experience success one season, try again, as morels have an unpredictable growing habit.

Light

Morels grow in the filtered light of forests. They grow under and around deciduous trees like elm, ash, and oak; frequently appearing before these trees have leafed out. Unlike plants, fungi like morel mushrooms do not make chlorophyll. The sun's light plays a role in warming the soil, rather than helping mushroom growth.

Soil

It's no coincidence that groups of morel mushrooms grow around dead, decaying, and burned trees. the nutrients released by dying trees and the leaf litter of the forest creates the loamy soil that morel mushrooms thrive in. Wood chips, wood ash, and sand are also desirable soil additives for growing morels.

Water

Regular moisture is very important to a morel mushroom's growth. Your morel growing area should be about as moist as a wrung-out sponge. Watering with captured rainwater is preferred to chlorinated tap water.

Temperature and Humidity

Morel mushrooms grow best in cool, moist weather. The quintessential spring weather of mild days in the 60's and cool evenings in the 40's with scattered rain and cloudy days will extend the morel growing and harvesting season. Conversely, when the season is dry and hot, morels quickly wither away.
