Joshua that outdoor bed looks GREAT! Baby Bear is even more excited about growing outside. Here in Texas we have some really great days of high humidity and cool temps just right for an outdoor bed.....Keep us posted on your progress.

To make sure you get your spawn material ready for your bed a culture should be started ASAP
The plates I started the other day are destroyed. I have been having ant infestation problems and they found my plates. I will be plating again today. This time I will be sure to seal the plates with tape.

These are some of the fruiting parameters for cyans. I believe these figures should be appropriate for azures also:
From The Mushroom Cultivator:
Spawn Run:
65-75 deg
30-60 days
RH 90+%
CO2: 10,000 ppm or higher
exchanges=0
I do have azure prints available for sale.

This is a jar of P. azurescens mycelium on soaked sterilized beachchips inoculated via rye spawn 5 weeks ago.
This jar will be used to inoculate about 5 quarts of soaked pasteurized chips, which will then be used to inoculate an outdoor bed.

If you haven?t started your outdoor azurescens or cyanescens project yet, NOW is time to do so!

Anno-
I have a large ammount of woodchip (50 lbs).
How would you go about using them?
Should I colonise all of them? or spawn them once they are in my bed?
Do you have pics of the environment from one of your previous beds?
Thanks for all of your help.
I am electing you the mentor of this thread:).

I would use the mycelium-laden ants to innoculate my substrate. Put the little beggars to work!

I?d spawn the myjor part of them in your bed, but you could use at least a part of it to make some spawn.
Last year I planted the azures under a beech hedge.
The pictures are here:

2 years ago I planted them in the woods:

3 years ago i planted it under a tree:

Here are pics from an azure culture and from some partially colonised maple chips. I will be transfering a small quantity of chips to full maple jars. I will be transfering agar wedges to a couple also.
I will post pics of my bed again soon. I have added 5 rhododendron plants to the bed.
