All I know is that they grow on grass not dung and where to look for them during the season. I have never heard or read of anyone attempting to grow indoors and getting prints from them is a little more complicated.

Best suited to outdoor growing I think, though I'm no expert. The liberty cap requires a colder climate to grow, so unless you're prepared to setup some kind of cold room/refridgeration growing outdoors is the only option. It's alot easier to produce constant heat rather than cold. Outdoor beds would probably be quite straight forward, just let nature take it's course.

Ive had success with growing colder temp mushrooms by buying a mini-fridge and keeping it at the lowest temperature setting. Ive done cyans this way but havent attempted to grow libertys yet.

What kind of yields did you get from that mini setup? Lib mycelium doesn't push out large amounts of shrooms in nature but I guess in the lab under optimal conditions this would change. Pans seem the better option if looking for high yield high potency shrooms grown within the same parameters as cubensis. But If semilenceata growing is what you want to acomplish regardless of these points then go for it and all the best

How are you gonna grow them like azures? Azures are wood lovers, libs are not...Your question wasn't clear enough to answer in any more detail.

i wanted to know if they grew on wood.. so i got that answered... now, since they dont grow on WOOD then they DO grow just like cubes, only a temp. difference, that is my question? or do they need more than manure or straw, or do they need straight DIRT/GRASS i heard? ...

I'm no expert, but I was interested in Liberty Caps because they grow every where over here. From what I've read, they are very hard to grow, just about the hardest of the lot. IMHO I think no one is answering you because no one has actually grown them successfully.

ah thank you for that tid bit. Would it be wise to maybe spawn to sedge grass clumps in fields? Oh and sawdust works well for producing spawn with this species.
