Surprise Azure fruiting indoors
    #26796760 - 07/01/20 10:45 AM (3 years, 6 months ago)

A few months ago, I was repotting some houseplants, and decided for the hell of it to mix up some colonized wood chip & sawdust Azure spawn in the potting soil. (I'd made up a bunch of bags that were sitting around waiting for it to get warm enough to bury outdoors, and figured I could spare one for an experiment.)

Imagine my surprise when I woke up to this today:


It was very small, about three inches, and very thin / fragile - a couple hours later it actually fell over. I wasn't expecting anything to come of this experiment at all really, and especially not now (temps in my apartment have averaged about 75 lately), but I guess something made it decide to fruit now? FWIW, looking closer, I noticed another shriveled fruit in the pot that had probably aborted at about an inch or two.

Just wanted to post here to confirm that it's indeed an azure? It looks scrawnier than what I've seen in pics, but I'm guessing that's probably just the less than ideal conditions? (There was no obvious bluing when I cut the stem, and the underside of the cap is brown but didn't drop spores.) Or maybe some other spores happened to get into the pot? I've grown a bunch of cubes in this apartment, as well as some shiitake, but I'm pretty sure it's not one of those. I've also been working on pan cyans, but haven't managed to get those to fruit yet, so I'd be surprised if it was one of those.

Thoughts from anyone with experience here? Thanks!

Coprinus.  Not active and certainly not an azzie. Keep it watered though.  You never know what might pop up!

Oh, interesting. How would it have gotten in there. Airborne spores? Something in the potting soil?

Anyway, not too bothered. I'm moving somewhere with a balcony in a few weeks and have a few bags of new chips going right now that I just inoculated with some azure-colonized wheat berries, and those will be going straight into outdoor containers once I'm moved in. Hopefully will be able to get those established enough to see some fruits in the fall, and otherwise they should be good for next year. (Also have a few guerilla grows that I'll be checking in on once the weather starts to cool, but no idea whether those will actually amount to anything.)

Thanks!

No prob.  Hope it puts out for you eventually.  It's just a result of unpasteurized soil mixed in with your chips.  They love fertilized soil.  I have hundreds in my heavily fertilized garden.  Good luck on the projects.
