Magical finds in Frank's summer garden

So I tilled about 100 substrates worth of composted material into my garden this year. We tilled about two weeks ago and it's been a wet spring, and here are some early pins:

And here's the little cluster all grown up:

Here's a mid-june update, I went outside today to snap pictures of a monster cluster and ended up photographing a few other smaller finds as well.


Update 6/22:
Let it rain!

Garden is taking a break but my compost pile went apeshit crazy...

fucking-a Frank, that's amazing.
I wish I had a backyard :/
Not to sound too noobish, but are those shiitakes?
And would you grow cubes outside if you had the chance to? I'd like to do it one day. Then i'd get naked and lay on my carpet of cube....llol

It certainly seems to be spreading its little fingers further into the yard

Judging by the cracked caps, I'd say you need to dial in your polyfill a little better.

I guess it really depends. The cracked caps are because of the lower RH air above the ground level causing them to dry up a bit too quickly. If I were to throw some brush of grass clippings over them and keep them moist, they would present themselves much differently I bet ya.
Honestly I couldn't go into more detail than that. This is not a properly set up bed.
I just tilled a whole lot of old substrates (around 100) into my horse manure compost and soil in the garden this year.
I'm really impressed with the resulting mushrooms. I've harvested almost 2oz dry over the last couple weeks.
I think I may have seeded my yard for years to come as well 
On a side note this is actually a good example of cracked caps due to dry air, a common issue with indoor grows.

My RH outside for the past day has been 65-90 (only 65 this morning) and I'm getting a lot of cracked caps as well.
A few weeks ago when I was gone I had an outdoor bed going, and it rained a lot. I came home to some fruits that were almost cracker dry laying on top of the bed lol It's only humid where I live after it rains. Otherwise its like 40-50RH
