My friend has given me a lot of information since last here.. Glad to say he is still with me luckily.. Lesson learned! I have also did some big research. As for the experiment going beautiful! Beds have been moved to bigger clear tubs. 2' L 18" w 7 " deep. First lined with promix and hydrox 3" beds all centered so no mycelium can't touch the plastic anymore. That could cause moisture problems. New tubs have 100 holes drilled all the way thee tubs tops, bottoms and sides. After beds centered in tubs I filled them in the rest with promix and hydrox and scattered very few grass seeds. Less than before. Tubs are in the garage now with a green light on at all times. Using same size clear tub to cover each at night to protect from freezing. Temps now are 25f at night and 33 to 40 during the day. Moving the tubs inside for 4 hrs a day by the window open, inside temp in unesd bed room is 50 degrees at 68 % humidity. Weighed the tubs while dry. Then lightly watered surface with pressurized sprayer for even distribution. Then weighed tubs again. So I know the moisture rates. Now large clouds puffing upwards, of thriving mycelium is on the surface of every bed coming up threw the grass and soil, grass is being trimmed every few days and leaving the cutting for natural decomposition. Will post pic soon...

Hey peteboy like the idea of cubes for quick production but after my research and knowledge acquired ur potency will be down. I am looking to create natural habitats so the shrooms can naturally uptake nutes from all natural environments. I believe this will increase potency and boost production naturally, and quickly.. And BTW.. This has been done. But not to many share...information

Not true, if you get fruits they will be as potent as cubes should be, nothing about growing them indoors will detract from the alkaloid levels, in fact id say is the other way around...but I've never eaten wild cubes...

You have been misinformed Peteyboy, azurescens on AVERAGE are twice as potent as cubes. If you are looking to grow the azures in their most "natural habitat" Beginner1974, why don't you then.... . Feed them some wood and leave them be over the winter and hope for fruits next season. In the mean time, take Peteyboys advice and grow some cubes.

I know that all woodlovers are more potent then cubensis. Azures have been reported up to 3x more potent then cubes. I was talking about the species cubensis.
Prior to his last post we were discussing growing cubes indoors to pass the time it takes to wait for his azures.
I thought when he made the statement about being in their natural habitat he was referring to cubes based on the previous discussion...

nice man, thanks alot, that made it very easy to understand! I will be doing this for sure! I'm planning on doing four or five different species...
What type of grain did you use to spawn to the wood? I'm assuming you saoked your chips? What type of container did you use for the colonization period?
Sorry for so many questions...

I'll have to dig up a tek for grains cause thats how i plan to go about it.
what did you do to the tub for GE while the chips were colonizing? I would assume just poking holes would do the trick?
Also, did you pastuerize the woodchips or did you just do a 24 hour soak?

Great idea with the mono tubs Cron!!
I can not wait to get started on this...
so your saying once you colonize the pastuerized primary spawn, from there you can expand directly to untreated chips and debris?
