Growing azurescens indoors/ outdoors

Hello new bee here. Trying something new with some azurescens I just got from a friend. 1500 g cultivated in rye grain.I am trying a new project since its to cold to plant outside now. I used 500g for the indoor/ outdoor grow. Using humidity domes and trays..outside temp currently. Below freezing most nights..here's a few pics. Any advice would be great.

Just me and puff the magic dragon here!

I used organic Alaskan humis top soil, lined the bottom of each tray with 2" soil. Then the wood chip bed 2" thick.. Approx..then 1" soil on top. Then I planted grass seed to make it easier to transfer the beds outside. So I have kept the trays indoors during the day for 4 wks at approx 68 to 76 degrees f. Now I have moved the trays to the back porch where temperatures are between 28 and 60 f. Covering trays with domes if freezing at night. My questions are.. What is the white web forming in my pictures? Can I do anything else to help start fruiting? How moist should I keep the beds? Any advice and direction would help. I know there are many threads but I am new and getting around here has been difficult. After reading many indoor cultivation threads it doesn't look like to many brave souls are trying this.. Lol I'll keep ya posted..after a few more weeks on the back porch I'll post some more pics.. Also I am a little nervous.. Just real.. The realities of internet..

This is interesting, id love to help but your pics don't work, you gotta upload em the right way...
Fruiting woodlovers indoors is next to impossible but has been done. Sounds like you did it right, it seems microbial life and cold temps are necessities but ultimately it's up to the mushies now...
Good luck!! I'll be

My pic's are all in my gallery, If anyone cares to take a closer look. My pic's are on my phone, and using this site can be an obstical on a phone..avoiding the main computer. I left out a lot of info sorry. I did boil the wood chips an hr then cooled to room temp for sterilization. The rye grain was already cultivated in the Netherlands. I let the rye grain/spores sit in a tub with lid for 20 minutes mixed rye grain with chips in tub. Wearing latex gloves of course. Lined the trays with soil then laid the mycelium bed/ woodchips. Then covered with soil and planted grass to help with moisture control. Since then added a few dryed maple leaves crushed to powder over the grass beds and some left whole, not sterilized. The bed has been growing for 4 1/2 wks now. Watering with purified water and rain water only every 3 days or so just wetting the surface. White webs are appearing down in the grass and the tray temps are being kept at 55f day temp max high maybe only once a WK now, and 32f at night lowest so far. Should I cover the trays then?

I just checked out your pics...unfortunately they are pretty blurry but I can say your setup looks pretty good. And the white blobs in the pics are nice and bright, so I would guess it's mycellium, does it have any rhizo characteristics to it? Woodlovers are supposed to be highly rhizomorphic. I can't tell in the pics...good luck homie looks pretty cool....
Did you say you got your grain from the Netherlands?
And yeah I'd take the pics of you and your family down brother....

not sure how well azures will do growing off of sprouted rye berries, but good luck!

Tell us more bout the colonized grain. But keep it quiet ,dont wanna ruin anything good.Sometimes exposing loopholes gets them shut down quick.And by the way you are presenting a unique method so ignore the trolls when they get here(and they will get here)looks like you have a good start.Congrats but its not over yet. I too am workin Azures but starting from spores.Having a hard time starting spores on agar.Keep it up.

Thanks guys pics cleared.. Good advice... Thank u. And yes the mycelium bed does have rhizo webbing growing around the top of the soil in around the white patches. Going to cut one side of the trays to see the layered growth. I will post the pic in my gallery. Try to clean camera lens . sorry pic's are blurry.. And yes I bought 2 spawn bags azurescens one 500 g the other 1000 g came in clear plastic bags with vent patches. It took 2 months to get to me. I had to wait a month because it was a brand new batch.. Thats what my friend told me.. Netherlands, Not real sure it was rye grain... New to this.. The bags had hard white masses of some kind of grain. Sorry, so desperate to have some shrooms in 25 yrs. None anywhere, no one to trust. As for the other guy.. I would appreciate if u didn't have anything nice to say, go away. Thank u. Thanks guys..

Don't disturb the tray! Just let her be, the mushies will fruit when they are ready. It will be easy to get restless with woodlovers cause they take forever...the more you disturb them the longer it will take...
That's pretty nuts about the spawn! Risky business going through customs and all that.
I would edit your post and take the name of the company and the guys name out of it immediately! Your certainly not doing him any favors by putting that kind of info out there. You gotta be smarter then that brotha 
Your woodlover tubs could take months to produce fruits and it won't be a huge flush either. I would recommend looking into a cubensis strain, they are MUCH quicker...I would recommend producing your own grain, but if for whatever reason you cant, shit you could prolly reach out to your boy there in the Netherlands.

OK a lot of good info.. Sorry hope I didn't offending anyone. Yes I was very scared, but reassured by my friend the strain could not be tested until its cultivated, as far as the spawn. It was labeled champagne and I waited 3 wks before opening watching for unwanted visitors around my neighborhood.. Sorry again thinking smarter!

This 500g is experimental. The other 1000g is in the larger tub. I understand not disturbing trays but I need to see everything so I know the life cycle complete.

If you see myc on the surface then you know the life cycle is occuring...I strongly advise you to not disturb it....your best off setting those tubs and forgetting about them or it will drive you crazy with anticipation...in the meantime start working with cubes....you could potentially fruit several cycles of grain before you get even one fruit from your azure trays, if they even fruit at all...
Also, the type of grain really makes no difference, the only thing that matters is if it's clean...

OK thank u peteyboy. Leaving them alone now. Ok I understand about the grain. It is rye grain though for sure. Confirmed...I used the method of using more spawn grain / wood so mycelium bed would be stronger and thrive faster. As for my friend.. No response.. I am thinking he is here. I am truly sorry for anyone I offended... An will never do that again..never joined a forum before, not really an excuse though...ok peteyboy what do I need to do a few cubes? All the spawn I have is cooking in wood shavings/ chips... Can I use that? It is turning to a big white mass...
