and now i have shrooms growing.. it was a mycelium covered piece that i had picked 1 from.. decided to take it home and water it..now they are popping up everywhere.. i want to expand the mycelium growth.. can i just add substrate around the poo and wait for it to grow into it.. i want easy and cheap.. or stick a mushroom cap in some new sterilized substrate.. there has to be a way to keep this going..

Haha.. thought this was gonna be another ”I took random shit home because I thought it would grow magic mushrooms” thread.. but by god, you actual did it I will say, you’ll probably want to confirm those are cubensis with bruising and a purple spore print but they definitely look like cubes already
Nice job. Look into printing to keep it going. Here’s a good printing tek

Thanks bro I appreciate that.. and for sure I will test the features of the right kind before doing anything.. its super fun already, would love to learn more so thanks for the link

Yeah I don't have any suggestions besides agar but it doesn't seem like something that you are trying to get into.
Cool grow!

if you were to just add substrate and or poop compost you MAY keep them going, but it would take time before you knew and they probably wouldnt thrive. best plan would be swab them, print them or clone them, and then give them good growing conditions.

You should clone one and start a grow with it. Just make multiple agar plates for redundancy, just in case one contams. Also be sure to bruise it and take a spore print to make sure it's really a cube.

Nice one! This is actually how I got started growing but I never used a tub so you’re well up on me there. I’d usually go picking at the start of the season, take home a few good nuggets but on the way back pick up a few bags of horse poo (hopefully there’s stables nearby) otherwise grab bags of that or cow poo from a garden or hardware store, find a semi shady spot in your yard and spread out the poop about 2inches deep mixed with straw, add a thin layer of straw on top and plant your nuggets. Water lightly every 1-3 days depending on weather but rain/storms are your friend, I’d normally have fairly consistent shrooms all season. If you’re sticking to the tub idk, maybe try adding more poop but either pasteurise it if it’s from the side of the road or store bought usually comes pre pasteurised, and maaaayyyybe your original myc will colonise it or there might be some other spores ready to go, but either way make sure to let us know how you went 👍

Awesome.. Thanks everyone.. yea they are growing very well right now.. so would you recommend cutting the good shroom poo into squares or sections and plant them in the store bougt manur ? i am going to go with a big tub to control the humidity and weather etc instead of outside i think.. here is the latest ones

I'd take prints and / or clone fruits and start a new, clean grow.
That poo is full of contamination, get rid of it.

You won’t find many to support poo in a tub here, maybe check the outdoor grow thread and see if there’s anything relatable you’d like to try. Also what’s in that poo is most likely almost spent so cutting it up after its fruited most likely won’t result in much, if anything unless there’s remaining spores that somehow manage to take. You’ve probably got the bug now so just start reading, then reading more and learn to use the search engine, it’s good once you get used to it and if your hearts set on doing what you’re doing now, go back to the field and collect more poo with myc and preferably small fruits (pins) just starting to form, they’re your best chance of mycelium being able to spread and further grow.

sterile tissue transfer from mycelium INSIDE one of the mushrooms stems, into sterile media (grain jars, bags, etc) would be my quick n nasty way of keeping that going.

Usually we recommend water tubs around here. For you though...
I recommend learning agar and cloning asap. The very least taking a spore print while u learn agar then growing it fresh and cleaning it up.
The poo in our home... you even has the grass I'm impressed! Please continue to send pictures of them they look fascinating in the domesticated wild

This is actually what Im going to try.. I bought a sterilized substrate specifically for cubensis.. im going to put the cut stems in there to try and get it to leap off and start colonizing.. Thanks for the suggestion!

KannaKris said: When I first started picking cubes over 20 years ago, I would always bring home a half trash bag full of manure too. It would always fruit again about one or two times and that was it. I tried adding more manure to keep it going, even crumbled colonized manure, and mixed it with more manure too, and I never got any more flushes ever. It just eventually started growing out grass and weeds.
I have even tried to use stem butts, and spawn that too composted manure too, to no avail. cubes are easy to grow, yes, but they are picky when it comes to non conventional ways to grow them, or so that has been the case for me.
You will be lucky if you get much more out of that no matter what you do, sadly, but good luck 
Thanks for that..I was thinkn some of those things but scratched those ideas off earlier.. Im going with a sterilized substrate specifically for cubensis so hopefully might work alittle better..

Thanks Im going to try the dirty and nasty method as someone said earlier for now and see how it goes.. throwing some fresh clean stems in some new sterilized substrate.. ive got a few more popping up on the poo so any day now to migrate!!

lol that's not what they said, their "quick n nasty " method is actually a sterile technique tissue transfer in a sab/fh. No idea why they called it that, there's nothing quick or nasty about this.
don't throw a picked mushroom into sterilized nutritious media

Since you're a noob I'll explain we were joking and the preferred sterile method would be to make a still air box to work inside of, and put that cloned tissue into an agar dish, let the mycelium grow out, do a transfer or 2 into another agar dish, and then put that into your substrate. But if you're not down for that we won't push you. Just know that it gives you the best chance to continue the grow without contamination.

<$15 for a 90 or 110qt tub at target or walmart to be used as a still air box. If you buy the Telephone brand agar agar they have at asian stores that only a couple bucks, let's say $5 to be generous. You only need 1 pack to get started. Light malt extract $11+ depending on how much and what brand. Sterile pitri dishes can be as little as $10 for a small pack on amazon. Let's say you buy a bigger pack of sterile pitris for $20, though. You're lookin at around $50 give or take. You can get it down lower if you look around.

Clean mycelium is clean mycelium, doesn't matter if it comes from an agar wedge or the inside of a mushroom stem or cap flesh.

As fahtster said, you should absolutely take a sporeprint. You could continue growth and fruiting by shoving more poo on top of it, however, you will likely achieve greater and healthier growth by innoculating other individual poo's. This isn't at all difficult, and could literally be done by scraping a couple of spores onto a fresh/moist poo.
