Are these pins of Sphaerobolus stellatus?

Found a new little cluster of cyan's. Could possibly be from stems that I had planted in previous years. Also took a pic of my cyan patch that got covered with junk.

Nice. Those chips look dry as hell.

Here's an update on my cyan find from two days ago. Weather conditions being unfavorable, I'm having to baby the spot. So far I've added 21 gallons of water. It was unavoidable that the building manager observed me. Lol, I had to work my magic. Now she wants to protect them for me while they grow, and she's offered to let me use the building's hose to water them.
Unlikely as it seems, I think this may be the spot's second flush this season. For last season I noticed a definite pattern: First flushes consisted of dispersed specimens, while second flushes came up in tight clusters as seen above. This spot is gunna look awesome when everything's mature, and it's sending up more and more clusters as we speak.
Almost forgot. A pic of some mycena growing from a 2 x 4.

Haha. How did you convince her to let you to continue watering? Is she aware that they are active mushrooms? Whenever I'm approached I am always open about looking for mushrooms but never the specifics at first. I usually try to get a feel for what the other persons is aware of. Saying you're with the local micological society observing different species of mushrooms in habitats in transition is always a good one too.

The location being downtown, the lady was pleased enough that my purpose wasn't to take a piss. In so many words I told her that I study mycology and that I wanted to water and photograph the mushrooms until they matured. I didn't tell her that the mushrooms are psychoactive. It's also noteworthy that I find myself strangely attracted to her.

That's awesome that you got the blessing to take care of them! Hope they don't get spotted by anyone else. As for the building manager you're attracted to, get her number!

How about I give you some advice if you take down that awful pic. You'll come across many woodchip beds that look too new. One reason is that places are still in the process of converting over to woodchip lanscaping, and the other is that existing woodchip beds are periodically replenished. As for the drought, what it means is that most of the woodchip beds you find will be dry.
What you need to do is search and search and search to find those rare woodchip beds that are already established and irrigated despite the drought. When you arrive at a place, find a shaded section and check the woodchips as well as underneath the chips...for the top layer can dry out fairly rapidly. (Not to mention, older decomposing chips might exist under a top layer of newer chips.) Once you've found such a location, then scour the whole place keeping your eyes glued to the ground looking for mushrooms. Pay particular attention to the shaded parts, no matter how small, and right next to plants.
So first you're just hunting for the conditions. Only when you find the latter are you actually hunting for mushrooms. And when you find the former, but not the latter, keep note of the place and revisit it every week or so...for different patches can fruit at totally different times within the season.
