You can mix fresh subs with tap water and blend it, use a spray bottle to spread over mulch.

That said, I am seeing some success in a couple of outdoor grow experiments I started last season!
     
Another experiment from last season was making a number of sub smoothies and pouring them into various woodchip beds at local parks and reserves that I haven't seen subs grow before. Not expecting the smoothie tek to work but it never hurts trying. If successful, the plan is to keep spreading all around locally. Fingers crossed 
Can you please share how you managed to grow subs outdoors? I would like to do the same!!

As Sykadelic mentioned there's a tonne of great resources here you can look up.
I mainly followed Olive's methods as it seemed the most doable for me.
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/14553921/fpart/1/vc/1
You'll see Olive uses stem in cardboard tacos to grow myc before transferring to woodchips. I had very little success out of this mainly from being super impatient and not being able to leave them alone, over misting, to the point the stems turned to sludge with some parasitic worms eating them. They may have even grown out of them, I dunno but I turfed them out.
Best results came from stem butts in woodchips in takeaway containers.
For smoothie tek, I followed UK Explorer's method. Pretty much what Jenk suggested.

A couple suburban finds in the south east around dusk... A few more Psilocybe tasmaniana at the new spot I found last month, no fruits yet at the original patch I discovered last year;
 
  ~ And some more Sub patches waking up around the area;

Those tasmaniana are beautiful Nick, you must've been over the moon coming across those! I'll be doing a lot more hunting in Melbs East this year, hope to come across some myself. Same habitat as subs yeah?
Great pics as always and good job on leading the vicco charge

Thanks mate, I appreciate it!  They’re certainly interesting to find. Funny thing is the first time I remember actually coming across them was back in 2020, a year before I had confirmed what they were. At the time I thought they were just strange looking and tasting sub mutants. I was actually a little averted towards them because of the differences even though they were little LBM's that bruised blue. Just goes to show it pays to look into strange findings.

Seems to be the case. I’ve found the two species growing meters apart from each other last year. ~ Some more suburban subs from a different spot today;

First finds of the season this morning Had a lovely discussion with a woman who saw me taking photos and asked what was going on. After a great chat about Rupert Sheldrake and fungal intelligence she set off with a small handful excited for her first experience! I'm happy to know that my first finds of the year went to a curious dog-walker who had the courage to reach out and connect 
  
And some active (I think!) Gyms growing nearby

What the hell are you on about? The pic is distasteful, but they didn’t post it to be racist, you completely misread. Keep your ranting out of this thread, it’s way worse than discussing the weather.

Nice one! 
Looks like them to me. Did you give the gyms a taste test, the spore colour looks the part. The only look alike I know of is Tricholomopsis rutilans which has an almost white spore print & does not taste bitter.

I did not think to do so Nick, next time I'm out there I'll have a little nibble. Thanks for the suggestion

love to hear this! Been on a bit of a scout locally, still yet to hit any subs but checked off some promising spots, catching some more familiar scents as each day passes by. enjoying the journey🙏

Last year was my first season hunting; after pretty much stumbling over a small suburban patch 400m from home, that unfortunately quickly got trashed by someone else, along with another in the same general area. But late in the season I also found a better patch a short drive away, which managed to remain otherwise untouched.
After the recent rains and cold overnight temps I thought I'd take a look at "the good patch" a few days ago, but all I found then were a bunch of dried out mushrooms that clearly weren't what I was looking for - they seemed to be two types, either strikingly orange caps, or paler brown/beige caps with stems that were yellowish instead of bluing.
Since there was a bit more rain last night I went back this morning, and after initially only spotting more "non-useful" types (I'll still get any I pick positively ID-d on here: while I think I have Subs pretty much dialled in now, I'm also a little paranoid still...!) I was thinking maybe the patch had been infiltrated/overgrown with these others and started to head back to the car.
That was when the one with the split cap in photo #1 caught my eye. I crouched to take a photo, then realised that while there hundreds of larger obvious non-actives all around me, only just emerging from the leaf litter were also seven or eight clusters of pins like pic #2. A good reminder that I really need to take the time while down low to "get my eyes on", as I'd completely missed all of them up til then.
I stepped carefully away from the patch to head off, and as I was keeping my eyes to the ground to hopefully not damage anything about 5m away I spotted the single Sub in pic #3, nestled between several of those orange ones.
Left them all to get bigger, so will check back again and hope no-one else discovers them in the meantime, but things look promising this year - fingers crossed, anyway!

The orangey capped ones are likely L Ceres. I always find subs near those guys.
Subs are great at camouflage with their caramelly brown coloured tops in dried leafy litter like in your photos. It certainly pays to slow down, stop and get to ground level for them to suddenly appear. Good eagle eyeing!
That's some intense blueing in that split capped sub. Practically no brown visible.
And the second photo looks like it's gonna be a sweet cluster when they mature would love to see a photo of them after your next visit.
Hope your patience pays off and they remain waiting for you to be picked

Finally got a chance to go check my patches this afternoon and all were full of subs! None of the dryer wordy patches yet that are in parks so I’ll be interested to see when those pop up but seasons well and truly started now. Happy hunting everyone!

How absolutely lovely of you to give both information and mushrooms! As a new hunter, May I be so lucky to meet someone like you when I’m out and about scoping. Xx
