Question about Mushroom Growing Habits
    #21726273 - 05/26/15 08:00 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

Hello, I have been searching for a few months for multiple mushrooms that I believed should grow in my area, due to my lack of findings I'd like to ask if mushrooms could in fact grow in this environment, as I've heard no reports of any from locals.

I live on a Farm-like land inhabited by cows that freely roam between 3-5 fields, all containing multiple types of Weeds,Grass,and other vegetation though it's more maintained in some fields. The dirt in the area is either mixed with or only slightly covering a layer of obnoxiously sticky, thick, red clay.
The weather lately has been daily showers/heavy thunderstorms followed by 6-12 hours of clear/cloudy weather, maintaining a temperature of around 66 at night to 87 at the days hottest, I live in central/south Alabama only slightly above Mobile.    Do the conditions seem appropriate for the mushrooms I have listed below.
  • Psilocybe cubensis
  • Panaeolus cinctulus
  • Panaeolus cyanescens


I am unsure of what the cows are fed, but believe they eat hay cut and baled on the land, but this may have changed, although I believe they are fed Bales of hay.  Could this effect mushrooms?

I have been riding/walking around right after and the day after rain showers and looking on and around manure as well as on top of hills and on slopes with adequate drainage.

Any tips or Input is appreciated! Thank you!

~~ Also If any of this post violates any rules, I will happily alter the post to criteria. Although I have read all rules, I realize this treads very close to "What mushroom's grow around me" type post.  ~~

Yes it is appropriate habitat for those mushrooms. However, hill tops and sides aren't the only places you should be looking, but anywhere that doesn't have standing water. Basically on or maybe very, very near cow dung is the only place you will find Psilocybe cubensis or Panaeolus cyanescens, which is also a possible spot for Panaeolus cinctulus. Although Pan. cinctulus is more likely on horse dung, where you could find Pan. cyanescens as well(Psilocybe cubensis have been found on horse manure before, although this is extremely rare in the wild).

Also, you should keep looking for more than just 24 hours or so after it rains, I woulds be out there for the next several days, especially, but not only, in places with some shade.
