Could I knockup a cow field with scraping spore prints onto fresh patties?

No, you cannot. The only possible way would be to use an lc or do as RR said below with a fresh cap. But even then, it's not guaranteeing anything.

I went out to a field with ten+ spore prints and scraped plenty of spores gently off the paper with a sterilized razor onto fresh cow patties with nothing visible growing on them yet. I also watered some of the older looking patties, a few freshies gently, and some 'halfway fresh' patties that had cubensies growing on them. I'm gonna check back the next few days, do you think I will see any possible results from this? The spore prints were mainly cubensies, and some copes.
Unless you got those for free you just wasted a whole lot of money. This same question/senario has been asked 3 times in the last couple weeks. The search engine would do wonders.
Here's one from a few weeks ago

Well thanks for your opinion. I got them free from picking on conservation areas with cows and from picking at other local psilocybe-infested fields. I made them myself, and still have plenty more, so I'm not worried to be honest. If it doesn't work I may even try again, because if it is somehow possible, I would like to get some pictures of the yeilds. And post 'em here.

It sounds like cubensis spores routinely inoculate the manure there anyways. You just assisted what was going on in your area, local mushrooms on the substrate they're used to. Sounds like you've got a pretty good shot to me, so long as nothing comes along and mows/eats the ground cover and the weather is permitting. 
Good luck!

I apologize guys, but I'm curious if it actually works. I never see anyone report back with or without findings, so it's hard to know. I'm gonna do it, and make it more official of if this idea works, or has no potential. Then we all know how to look at the subject as a whole, moreso.

Liquid culture in a super soaker.

It can be done but really depends on your location and the diet of the cattle.

Usually when a thread like this goes nowhere and dies the result is predictable. Be sure to report your findings and maybe we can get it put up as a sticky Avoid more of these in the future

The reason you don't see people report back is because people don't like to rreport their failures

In which case you could have simply put a fresh cap under each cow pie and possibly got something via cloning. If you wish to inoculate a cow field with spores, put the darned spores in the water trough as has been posted hundreds of times before. RR

I'm finding more in the field, but not in the exact spots I put the spores. No need to be rude, I was only curious. And yes, I was planning to report back. Problem is, I work and have things to do. I'm not on an online forum 24/7. Anywho, as I said. Been finding them, but not in the exact areas I put the spores. Nearby but I'm doubtful this is successful. Can't say it's impossible though. The LC water gun sounds badass! &Would putting a fresh cap under/ontop of a cow pattie in a field make more grow? o: I will report with some that came from this field. Weird thing, a few years ago it NEVER grew anything. All the sudden after seven years I've known this place, it's growing them all the sudden. Naturally. But it could be growing a lot more. I feel like, atleast.

If you live in the right climate I would think once you got them growing in a cow field they would continue to be there for years to come

id just like to add, that theres no reason to use a sterilised tool. nature has its on way of keeping things in check.
not to mention that the prints would have already been contaminated as soon as you opened them, and your spreading them on contaminated surfaces.
we only need super sterilie conditoins for indoor cultivation.

You didn't scrape spores in a cow field and get mushrooms from them ten days later. RR

The better question is Can you scrape cows into a monotub and get milkshakes?

The best bet you have to get that cow field full of shrooms is putting the spores in the cows water supply.

The spores germinate in the cows stomach from what I've heard. Although you might get shot in the face if a farmer sees you putting something in his cows water supply. Lol.

I really have to wonder what advantage they have germinating in a 100F+ anaerobic environment. They can't actually grow in that can they?

Quite a lot of spores,seeds, and parasites start their life cycle in the stomachs of a host vehicle. I don't know if they germinate in there but I can see them surviving.
