Rookie in dire need of advice
    #14525941 - 05/28/11 11:26 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Before I even get started, I know absolutely nothing about growing mushrooms. I live in Georgia, and have 2 of my own cow fields that ive gotten mushrooms out of since I was probably 13 or 14 years old.

About 3 weeks ago, I ventured out into my field and found these....


Last night, I ventured out into my field after a hard rain, and found tons of these.


Now in my drunken state I proceeded to put a light above them and water them, lmfao. They shriveled up and died. But the field was slap full of these last night with 93% humidity. I wake up early this morning ready to go picking, only to find theyve all shriveled up and died. I registered on this site because im interested in learning about how mushrooms grow and what not rather than going out there picking randomly.

Anyone know why all of my fieldies died on me in the 5 hours I went to sleep?

Im just curious as to why they stopped growing. I went out to the field this morning to find them at the same exact size as the second picture, but lying on their side.

Ive moved that patty to outside now..

I think that the mushroom in your second picture are some sort of a Coprinus sp.  maybe. If the mushrooms grow just fine out in your field why take them inside and kill them any way? All you have to do is take a couple of steps out of your door.

The second ones are little coprinoid mushrooms (inky cap). They are often short lived and some (especially the little ones) will only last a few hours, fruiting and dying all within a night.

You've got some dried Ps. Cubensis and some dried pan. species.

I circled what I believe to be Ps. Cubensis in blue....




Oh yeah and the other small mushrooms on that patty and in the field aren't anything that anybody cares about...so no loss there...
