Hey All,

I've been fortunate enough to uncover a large patch of Cyan mushrooms, but I haven't had any luck transplanting the chips to anything but cleaned up horse manure. 

Here is the process for that BTW:
Collect really fresh horse manure and put the whole bag of it into some really hot water in a tin garbage can.
The water can be gotten from your water thermostat tank, a hose will allow you to send it out a window to your
trash can. 

Now with a stick stir the manure tea until all the chunks are broken down.

Transfer the whole mess into a self made grate of a 2x2 or so frame with 1/8 inch wire mesh stapled to its underside.
With a power hose spray the mass of manure until only clear water runs away from the manure.  This will be when it
has only straw left.

At this point put the straw (digested by the horses belly) into a container of water (ice chest will do) and pour a cup of bleach
into the tub and wait 2-4 hours.

Now rinse and viola you have your mushroom food!  Cyan growing on wood chips can be induced to fruit on this as well as
Cubensis.

Good Fortune!
