Fruiting cow patty viable for more fruit?

hi there,
went out and found a couple of loose patties that had cubes growing from visible mycelium on the outside. one of the patties had a cube that looked a little dry and the other had a cube that looked like it was still growing up.
i placed both of these patties in a tub, on a piece of foil, with the mycelium side up, and have been misted the tub a few times over the last ~48hrs. right now the tub is in a warm, dark place, with the lid closed.
the tub and lid were washed with soap and water, then wiped dry, and wiped down with alcohol. the spray bottle im using was cleaned with soap and water, then filled with tap water.
totally newbie here, not sure if this is even worth pursuing, advice??
Also here are some pics of the patties,

Because a pile of shit you found outside needs a clean place to be, right?  Doubtful it will do much or anything, what you could do is look into agar and clone a wild fruit. Then Follow a current bulk tek from this site to grow a box full of them.

Fair enough, I'm sure this is worthy of a "worst of" post to most, below are some more specific questions
Quote:
h0ldthedoor said: i placed both of these patties in a tub, on a piece of foil, with the mycelium side up Right now the mycelium is facing up, though they were found mycelium down. Did I screw up, or does it even matter?
have been misted the tub a few times over the last ~48hrs. been trying to keep the walls and lid moist that there is always water beading on the walls and lid, do i need to worry about draining water that collects in the bottom of the tub?
right now the tub is in a warm, dark place, with the lid closed. Is this correct? at what point, if any, should they get light? should I crack the lid to allow airflow? I want to be sure the environment is humid enough but I don't want to "choke them out", if that's even a thing
Also here are some pics of the patties,

That was my first thought, but feeling so bad for all the little mushies that never got to grow up (cannot tell you how many dried up little baby mushies were out there), figured it would at least be a fun project to help a few grow up under better conditions (than super-high heat with little rain)

Problem as I can see it is that that literal shit cake is filled with all kinds of contaminant organisms. Once you put that in a tub inside, shit like bacteria and trich won't have mother nature holding them down. We sterilize everything and inoculate with sterility for a reason. If this worked like a charm we would just be throwing some hydrated un-sterilized grains outside and poured a contaminated as fuck LC all over it and once it colonizes, brought it inside.
Best chance that thing has is if you threw it outside again and watered it whenever it's looking dry. Probably won't work even then but definitely better than keeping a ticking time bomb in your grow area.

What you said has resonated with me. I will keep them going just as an experiment with no real expectations of success. Also, I see your point about "if this worked like a charm". My intentions were good, just wanted to give the little guys a shot at growing up since the conditions have been brutal. Outdoors is not a reliable option, higher probability they would be eaten/trampled/dry up.
Got some cube spore prints, may give it the old college try after doing more research.
Thanks for the help!

outdoors is still a more reliable option than indie with that.. even with the "higher probability" of being eaten/trampled/dry up.

You could always just mix it into a bigger bed of dung outside, bury it in soil/straw or something. That's probably what I would do. Dung is so easy to get and this is probably gonna be shitty anyways. Go big or go home.

I don't get why you tried to sort of sterilize a tub that you were planning to put cow shit from a field in lol
Also it needs to breath and indirect light if fruiting

Practice, I suppose.
Thanks for the tips, I just moved the lid to allow some air in and out and gave it an incandescent light source.

don't let it dry up either spray and fan with lid Pinning is triggered by evaporation

Awesome, thanks mrmazdarx9!!
In the AM and PM, I've been taking the lid off and spraying the tub and fanning and misting the patties themselves. There are medium to large water droplets collecting on the walls and on the lid. There was some puddles in the edges of the tub, but those have been wiped up (standing water in the tub is not a good thing?).
So far I can see a few fresh pins and the mycelium looks healthy. I'll see about grabbing some pics today.

Here's what they look like now,
Had to remove one patty from the tub due to mold. I cleaned the tub, sprayed some bleach/water and then ozium in the room and added some perlite to the bin before placing the other patty back in the tub. The remaining patty looks pretty happy, though.

Decided to break off the moldy bits from the patty and give it another chance. Here it is in a small flower pot with some perlite in the bottom. I have some clear plastic covering the pot with room for airflow.
