In my experience one solid mass means the patch is about to fruit heavily. Not sure what your temps/rain are but I've had some of the largest flushes when it was completely matted over. Perhaps give it a good soaking.

I hate that my contributions to this thread are always congrats, but wow that's the kind of outdoor flushes people dream about!

Can anyone :help: me?
I've got some p.subs in cardboard tek and they've grown to about 3-5cm blobs but now for the past few weeks they've totally stopped growing. Should I/When should I add sawdust or something else? Sorta feel like they haven't got much to eat or grow on. Its still nice and moist in there, they have not dried out.
Thanks.

I did a little operation with a scalpel.
Looking good didn't disturbed much of the woodchips only 2-3 small woodchip pieces fell from the walls of the plastic tube...
I put them back on the top of the tube,where the leaves are.

Can someone please explain why no of my other allenii tubes,pots and beds aren't fruiting? Only the smallest bed is fruiting.... Even the subs bed isn't doing much just while mycelium....
They spawned this year? My guess would be that they need to digest longer. My flower pot took two years to fruit. That might explain why only your smallest bed fruited, if it had a higher spawn ratio due to being smaller?
anyway, there's my guessing

In my patch, the myc grew like gangbusters under the areas where leaves covered the surface, and under a pot that was sitting there. One of the flushes came from the edge of that pot.
aha, I had the exact same thing happen. I Had a small potted plant sitting on top of my larger flower pot o wood chips and the fruits all came from under the edges of the smaller pot.
edit: Do guerrilla grow patches tend to peter out without maintenance? Does the mycelium ever pop up in new places nearby years down the road in your experience? Or is it reliant on human maintenance to do well year after year?

Patches I've placed around areas with P cyanescens spawn all seem to fizzle out if left unattended. They devour all the food resources and disappear after 2 seasons.
The places I find them most abundantly are areas that get re chipped annually.

thanks for the quick and quality response.
Been trying to think of the ideal guerrilla spots. Somewhere secluded enough to allow picker/planter privacy, yet somewhere public enough that random people are likely to find them on a cold winter day. bonus points for automatic sprinkler systems and periodical additions of fresh wood.
The best answers seem to be public parks, nature trails, private property with mulch beds. :thinkingcap:

Philosopherr, arent you in the northeast somewhere iirc? I have found cyans grow well here, esp under evergreen trees. They even grow reasonably well on conifer wood compared to other species Ive tried. I think they tolerate pine more than Ps subs. Im not quite sure what it is about the evergreens. My theory is the ovoids like to fruit better in partially sunny spots that are the first to warm up in spring, and the cyans the shadier spots cool down faster. But they could be sensitive to sunlight. I am not really sure.
What Id consider an ideal spot is a place with some kind of temperature buffering. In the PNW I believe the fall season more often lasts longer before the ground freezes up. You can never predict the weather, but on average the season more often practically ends as soon as it starts. Up against a building, near a pond, windbroken areas with lots of concrete, are all good spots. They do not necessisarily need to be planted here. I think they are the hardiest, easy to grow Psilocybe species. Ive never watered my spots at all. I just kind of throw some butts and spores in nearby wood chips and come back in 2 years. My first grow was actually accidental. It would not suprise me if they have become naturalized on the east, and people just dont look.

I’m certainly no expert, though when I was in your position, I added some soaked gum chips, and the myc climbed on. Growing from stem butts is a patience game.
Just enough to cover your myc patches, and use boiled water to give ‘em a head start ;-) keep them in a plastic bag unsealed.

Do what you want but I personally think the cardboard tek was a bad deprecated tek. It is a good selective substrate that mold doesnt like much. It is not unuseful in mycology but I like to consider it a last resort for a moldy jar kind of thing. From a stem butt, or healthy spawn it is very counterproductive, even though it does work. That stem but has the energy stored to expand very quickly across that nutritionless junk. It is starving, and need to in order to survive. Very quickly it will tap out and then you have a very fragile situation. The myc on that cardboard at this point will just struggle more and slow sown transfer to wood. During this long lag period you then have the risk of a mouse or a slug or mold or whatever ruining it. I have seen this debated before, but have personally seen better odds skipping the cardboard step. Stamets was dead on correct when he said "move it or lose it" Just my 2c anyway

He should used eggcarton or straight boiled woodchips for the stem buts.I plan to do so when i pick some of the allenii fruits i have.
I have access to an island in the middle of a river,the whole thing is old forest only hardwood trees. There are many fallen wood piles,there's even some edible mushrooms from time to time.
I wandered what psilocybes would like it there and start growing wild.
Any tips for my project guys?
