thinking about it, before i ever cared about shrooms, i found some of these once in the beginning of september and just chucked em at the trees, they were growing off of wood chips in the woods, and they looked just like those, i ended up getting into shrooms when i went back there the next week to find some, cuz one of my friends have been wanting some, so i went and picked the same ones from the same spot gave em to him and i smoked a couple bowls while he ate em, i guess he knew what he was doing, and i just laughed the whole time stoned as hell watching him trip. that was one year ago, and since then ive been stuck on them studding them constantly. the only time i tripped on shrooms was when i had found some gyms 2 months later

They wont grow on wood chips...its possible i guess to find em under wood chips...but typically..for (wood) loving weill..they prefer pine needles..there are several out there in the woods that are very similar in appearance...until you really seem them in person..a good indication is to smell them..very unique..if they smell like crayons, acidic cucumbers,etc...then look for very distinct bluing....then do a spore print..should be purple

look at all the dirt on the stems
..i didnt say they didnt grow in the woods..i  said I didnt think they would grow directly on wood chips..but rather from the soil underneath..just like your above pics

Whatever, I dont have tons of pictures to show, but the cedar chips were completely colonized with mycelium.

If i was to fruit weilii artificially, It wouldnt be colonized on a patch of dirt or pinestraw, it would take sawdust or potato dextrose, some type of wood based substrate.

Its not like these are separate species growing from different substrates, what grows off pinestraw, or fescue, or woochips is the same weilii. Im going to go out looking in a couple hours and bring back more pictures.

Good luck hunting in the grass...

Fescue patch has backed off quite a bit lately (which is weird b/c everyone elses patches seem to be going off), but did manage to cough up this nice cluster.

Thats an awesome cluster, very pretty colors. Every patch is different, dont think just because someone elses patch is fruiting that yours will to. Mine will take a week or two break sometimes then will start producing again for a 3-4 weeks then stop for 1-2 weeks. This cycle is constant with any mushroom, you harvest the fruits then the myc recovers from being disturbed then produces more when its healthy enough to. Its going to rain for a few days here soon so just keep checking, and again that cluster is awesome you should eat that fresh

hey shiftypeaks, what was that cluster growing by??

---

a swingset......found in a residential fescue lawn around 4 years old.  My wife thinks i'm too old for this kind of thing so she likes to fuck with me.  This patch is actually in the neighbor's backyard and she saw me out there with the flashlight at midnight and yelled out the window "hey, get out of my yard!"  Needless to say, it scared the shit out of me before I realized it was her.
