Just wondering how you think the warm winter weather will affect mushroom hunting this up-coming season ? We have had lots of rain this winter, but not much snow. Do you think it will be a good season for them, or are they just going to pop up and wilt away.

I think it depends on what the spring will be like. Is it going to be a steamy hotbox all spring, or is it going to be a dry heat again, and jump straight into summer? Hopefully we have another good year. Last year was a pretty good one for me, and i'm looking forward to topping it.

As long as it doesn't get too hot too soon everything will be fine.

I agree that the weather we have this spring will have the most effect on the mushrooms coming up, but it's also been my experience that the REALLY GOOD mushroom years have come after a cold snowy winter, so my hopes aren't that high for a good mushroom year. Hope I'm wrong. Also, here locally at least, it's not been a real wet winter. Last year was a lot wetter. Most of our precip came during the fall. Since Dec 1st we are .84 inches above normal for precip, last year at this time we were 2.35 inches above normal. (Terre Haute numbers.)

If this forecast holds true we might be picking a few next weekend.... I still have a bag in the freezer from last year. Guess I better use them up!
