Well it's very possible that you do have some Pan subbs in your yard, even though I've only found most of mine in horse fields. It just depends on what the mycelium wants, they might never grow again and then again you might get hundreds. Try the hose tactic but don't get your hopes up.

You'd be better off hunting rich people's yards(green grass with sprinklers etc...) than watering and hoping your lawn produces them. I haven't found them in MY yard yet, lots of foes. I just went and hunted a cemetery, and found tons of foes, but no subbs. Last year at this time I was finding tons of subbs, but we also just passed the 1 year anniversary of the 100year flood, so it's the time, just not enough rain, yet.

yeah, well I'm pretty sure that i found subbs in my yard before and not just foes.....its just started raining about an hour ago so hopeful that will help.....although after this some-what dry spell, I'm going to need a few more days of rain before I can really look forward to a succsesful hunt....I'm prob gonna go back down to the river near my house tommorow.....the slope leading down to it seems to be much liked by many different mushrooms that i dont see lower in the river valley(most of which i have yet to identify)....i guess those certain types like the higher elevation, and as a matter of fact, i think i may have found a bluefoot two days ago on the same sloped area ...but it could have been just a similar type of mushroom although the base of the stem seemed to be bruised a purpleish/blue color...but the cap was more half-spherical instead those "wavy" caps that you see on most bluefoots.
I'll post a pic if anyone wants to see what I'm talking about.

well, just don't get your hopes up is all I'm saying.
Stopped at a spot that looked nice while I was on the way to a friends house.
Kept a foe too  Didn't really expect to find anything(lack of rain)so I left the camera in the car, so no in situ  Going camping for the weekend, so I took the babies too, that's right I EAT BABIES!
 More bluing on these guys too

I have found mushrooms similear to the above near me, they were found growing near but not on manure. I cannot tell if they are subs or foes, how likely is it that one can find subs in the east of England? I'm currently spore printing one.

likely, they grow worldwide
My camping trip didn't go as planned, so I never even seen the hay bails, but did see and catch some bass and crappie. 
Might go for a walk later, see what's happening.

damn dude... you're making me jealous
jk....seriously though, I'm going hunting again tommorow and I'm not coming back to the house until i find an active mushroom(s)....at LEAST one is what i mean..hopefully a whole fucking field's worth but that isnt likely.
BTW mead, when you look for subbs do you mainly stick to grassy areas or do you check out fields(tall grass) and/or slightly wooded places? I'm asking because I'v just looking around in my lawn where I'v seen them before but they havent shown up yet...idk..maybe its too early in he summer...might have to what till late july or even later into mid-august, i really have no fucking clue....their enigmas, I tell ya

no prob, they're out there in Minnesota too 
Ganjika: I stick to mainly grassy areas. If I were you, I'd go to a golf course, and check around the tee boxes, I haven't NOT found subbalteatus mushrooms on the courses I've been to this year. But rain is the big player, It was dry last July, but in August I started finding them again.

9 times out of 10 I will find subbs in freshly laid sod. It is very rare for me not to find them there. Look for new buildings, condos, houses. They almost always lay sod. I was going to the store the other day and noticed some new condos, and what do you know, a ton of subbs. I don't pick em because I don't like having to eat that much put I still get a kick out of finding any active.

Round here, 9 times out of 10 I don't find any subbs on new sod, fact I don't even look for sod or new grass anymore, just nice grass. The parks I hunt have been established for many many years. Golf courses, tho, may use sod, I dunno, not a greens keeper, but they have nice grass.

Hey all, long time no see, been real busy lately. I've found subbs a few other times since I was last on, but didn't take pics of most; but, I managed to find some nice sized subbs two weeks ago, and took pics of them.
