wow i wish i had a camera..... all spring/summer ive been trying to grow outdoors.. its failed all the time....
untill recently, ive been putting my contaminated substrate in everything flower pots, holes, dark corners, even chucking it on the grass...
well, apparently this has been a great success, its been raining here non-stop and my cubies have LOVED it.. every flowerpot has tons of little mushys springing up!
and best of all, the mycellum that i threw on the lawn is fruiting!! its not covered with anything! i just tossed a hunk of mycellum onto my grass, and now its fruiting!! lol
when conditions are right, outdoor growing is a breeze!! just pray for shitloads of rain... apparently the mycellum is very hearty as well, some of these flowerpots have been dormant for weeks if not months... once the conditions are right, they fruit...
so the lesson is, never throw anything away, just toss it into a flowerpot, or in a hole in the ground... or on the lawn!

Yeah, fuck the outdoor teks. My foaf just mixes up some colonized jars with some wet straw and cheap compost straight from the bag and throws it in a pile in the shade or a shallow hole. As long as it gets rained on or watered, it always fruits. Even stalled jars come back to life. He had a patch flooded under water for a week and it still fruited. Outdoor patches are hearty as hell and so easy. Anybody who lives in the right climate should try it

man, a few weeks ago was PERFECT where I live, I mean humid as FUCK and hot all the time, I would just have to water them, but it's not like that anymore, and mushrooms would arouse suspicion where I live so :-/

Yeah, even if you live somewhere where conditions aren't suitable, it's worth trying an outdoor patch just for the hell of it... hell, I live in the north of Scotland (that little know peninsula off the north coast of England for all you yanks) and conditions are far from optimum, but I just chuck all my spent substrate on my compost heap and hell, it does pretty well... any result at all is pretty good for zero effort

Here's a related question:
I recently birthed a bunch of cakes into a pod etc etc etc, but one of my jars had not yet completed colonizing. Since I won't be in town to place the remaining cake inside the pod, I was thinking I could cart it off to BC with me where I will be camping for two weeks. Once it's fully colonized, could I take this PF Jar and chuck it in the forest? BC, I'm told, is the pefect climate for mushrooms. I will have lake water easily accessible, and can water the thing daily. Plus, it's been raining out west every day for the past three. What do you think?
