Re: Morel

I'd guess it was the bark. I had morels for a few years in one bed after mulching it with cedar bark. They never lasted long enough to produce spores.
I bought a Shitake log recently. Wonder if you could do the same thing with morels? Process didn't sound horribly difficult and you certainly have the humidity to make it work.

Nope.  :(  Deep shade under some hemlocks,
arborvitae, and ferns.  It's
right up against an unmarked Epimedium and shares
the spot with some
Chasmanthium latifolium, Pulmonaria, Ligularia,
Matteuccia, Podophyllum,
Uvularia, and Actaea.
