Cultivating on the Go

To make a long story short, I'm going to be a something of a vagabond in a few weeks.
I want to know if it is possible to grow Cubes while homeless.
Some details: Total noob only done one PF tek grow before.
Currently residing in Palm Beach Gardens, FL (subject to change)
Already have two syringes of B+ that will more or less be thrown out or experimented with, along with glass jars and material for BRF substrate.
Has anyone cultivated without a home before? My only idea was to nurture some spores for a bit, then find some secluded woodsy area for an outdoor fruiting. Though, as a total freshie, I have no clue on the viability. Any ideas welcome. This seems like a time for some fun experimentations, maybe even write as thorough a report as possible if I can manage the grow (or even come close) so if you want to know if that homeless growers tek you devised/read about really works, well I'm the guy to help you do it.
Thanks for reading, and thank you in advance for all replies. Have a great day.

If you are Florida and a "vagabond" then just go hunting for them.

Sorry to hear that man. Hard times fall on the best of people sometimes, it really sucks. Keep your head up man and work on getting things straightened out.
You can absolutely grow cubes outdoors, you just wont see as much of a desired result as you can with a controlled environment. Without access to a stove/PC you'll probably find the task a little hard. I would advise against it You should be worrying about other things than growing right now, but thats just my opinion. Hopefully all goes well with your endeavors.

It's not 100% against my will. Going to use this as an excuse to go hitchhiking cross country, something I've wanted to do but mostly have been to afraid to do before these circumstances. So no pity needed, at the worst I could very well ask Ma and Pa for a bed to sleep on if I find I can't hack it. Anyway, sorta off topic. (Also to the other poster who I'm having a hard time quoting on this phone: I did not grow up here, and as far as I know there are no good local pastures on which to hunt within reach. I suppose I could wander there, but planning to travel a good way just to attempt at sneaking around cow pastures and hope to god I'm good enough at mycology to pick the right ones, if there even are any growing now, seems pretty dubious. Not counting it out, but unless I find a decent guide of some sort, it seems highly implausible. Not a bad idea, just not right for me)
I now have my "move out by" date, the 30th of October. So with that in mind, how do you think I could go about this? As I said I only have the experience of one extremely noob PC tek indoor grow. I still need to read up a bit more on technique, but is it possible to grow and give the mycelium a good base in some Pf tek jars, then move it to some sort of wooded area when it's time to let them fruit?
What sort of technique/reading would you recommend for something like this?

If you really wanna cultivate on the go, I'd suggest doing truffles in a plastic jar or a spawn bag. You never have to fruit them, and about 3 months after inoculation you'll have around 100 grams fresh.
You could just keep plastic quart jars in your backpack, or a spawnbag at the bottom.(I'd suggest the jars, as you could damage the growing screlotia with a spawnbag easier if you're moving around and whatnot).
If you want to start up a patch, you could just use hydrated straw(people have told me that you don't need to pasteurize it if it's outside, don't know how true though) and just spawn a patch. I've heard mushrooms in florida grow all year around.
