i have a healthy batch going on right now, but its all sawdust, and a few woodchips.
recently i added a bunch of hardwood sawdust to the batch. i've been reading up on woodlovers and i hear they love cardboard. is this the same for azures? i don't have acess to hardwood chips, so should i try adding cardboard?
btw, its an outdoor grow if you didn't guess already

I've seen people have ripped up cardboard amongst their chips and it could help some but usually it is used early doors say to move from grain.
In order to initiate fruiting mycelium needs woodchips, cardboard is really as step back and you need to think about adding more and more bigger chips to your sawdust.
I find it hard to believe you don't have access to hardwood chips. Google woodchips for food smoking or reptile bedding, check at your local pet shop or speak to local tree surgeons. Or even the roadside where deciduous trees have been pruned.
Theres got to be some alder, beech or other hardwood chips kicking about somewhere in your region . Most will work fine.

Did you pasteurize the woodchips? I grow out myc on sheets of cardboard then store them in the fridge over winter and each fall I'll let some myc colonize cardboard from my woodchip bed to perpetuate them till next spring
