Hi All,
I really want to grow some shroom.
So what temp do we grow our shrooms at down under? everywhere i read it says approx 22c, but here they don't start growing in the wild until its colder?
How does that work?
If i take a print and make them from a local mushroom, do i need to grow it in the cold also?

Ok ok... So here in Australia, the ones in the wild are psilocybe Subaeruginosa -- they are a woodloving species that fruit in the winter, in the cold outside.
These are very different to the psilocybe Cubensis, which you will hear about people growing at home from (usually) grains. Those fruit at around 25 degrees (you might be able to find them on the gold coast in cow pats in Aus if you're lucky, during the spring/early summer).
I feel like you are confusing these two mushrooms.

I'm in NZ, so i think we are in a reasonably similar boat.
If i grow psilocybe Subaeruginosa at home, do you need to do it in the cold also?
Cheers

Yes, Ps subs is a cold-loving species.
If you were referring to cubes, they are a tropical species that prefers tropical temperatures. Think beach weather but with fresh water moisture.

psilocybe Subaeruginosa at home? Indoors?. well WTH try it, might work, it's been done in the past

doubt you will like the yield, the time spent on getting these to grown indoors is typically not worth the effort assuming you aren't doing it for science

Just because it hasn't been made super clear to the OP --
If you want to grow some mushrooms at home, either do an outdoor patch of Subaeruginosa (but these will probably not fruit until next year if you start now... Also you'll want to be in the right climate, like VIC/SA).
Or grow Cubensis inside (you'll need a heater this time of year, and a reasonably clean room with little air flow) following the same instructions the rest of the world follows.
