hi to all, havent posted for awhile but i found something ive never seen b4. I had a monotub contaminate last summer and set it outside uncovered...It sat out since august of last year until now when i discovered what appears to be cubes growing. Keep in mind im in ohio and it sat out all winter, it is now spring and has been very wet and humid for about 6 weeks.
1) Is this common?
2) im not a great identifier but they appear to be cubes...What are the chances they could be something other than cubes?
I know pics are a must most times and i will post them shortly, thanks for taking a look!

if they are cubes, I'll be suprised. The reason they don't grow in Ohio is because it gets below freezing in the winter and they can't survive the cold. If it spoulated all over it's self previously, there is a chance. I'm from Ohio

If it was in a sheltered area outside it would still freeze. Paducha is right, cube mycelium died when they reach freezing temperature--this is why the species only grows in the wild around the equator and in areas where it doesn't freeze in the winter.

Even though cubes could fruit in the summer outside in Ohio, I think it's too cool for them at the moment. The gills look too pale and I see no bluing on those.

it is possibly penis envy, cant be sure though because i had 5 strains going last year.. I dont physically have them @ the moment, they are @ a friends house because i had to stop growing @ my house. The spore print is too light to tell right now, but i will say it does not look purple, it looks brown. It just dawned on me that these have been printing 4 24 hrs and some still have no print at all!! That could be more evidence they are penis eny!! edit.. oh, and it has been 60-70f in NE ohio lately, rainy and humid. thoughts?
more pics to come soon i hope..

I would expect PE to bruise like crazy after it's been handled. Any I've grown have always bruised heavily quickly after being picked.
Also, I live in Ohio too!
