What would happen if...

Just out of morbid curiosity...What do you think would happen if a fellow put a half colonized mycobag in a hole in the ground outside?
For example: Billie has a mycobag, some lawn cuttings, and a hole in the ground. He preps up the lawn cuttings and whatnot, and puts it in the hole along with his mycobag. Would this spell the end for Billie's mycobag, or would he be able to fruit mushrooms by this method?

Billie's been reading about outdoor cultivation on the boards for a very long time and has never seen this come up.
He also doesn't want to keep up this third person thing...

if you bury a mycobag i dont think its going to do much. i assume you mean empty the contents of the bag into a hole? 
yeah it could yield some surprise fruits. and if you've been reading about outdoor cultivation you should have plenty of ideas on how to improve the chances it will fruit, and the yields, by adding other things to that hole and treating your partially colonized bag as spawn.

Yea. I guess I should have mentioned that I know this would be half assed.
The best way would be to get manure and hay and all that good stuff and follow moes tek or a similar tek.
The reason I'm even considering this is because I have a mycobag colonizing right now. I have to move on the 5th and I can tell that it won't be finished by then. So I'm considering either doing a cranberry juice extraction with it or putting it outside to see if anything happens.

well putting it outside means it will take a longer time to see any results. much longer. so unless you can sneak back to whever you're burying it to check up on it, there's not much point.
likewise, there's not much point to a cranberry juice extraction... that tek is questionable from the get-go, we know mycelium has a very low concentration of actives, and likely to have even less than that when its young and hasnt even finished colonizing... but i'll leave that one up to you, don't complain if you get nothin but a stomach ache!

Yea, you're right. I'm just trying to find a way for my mycobag not to have been in vain.
I'm moving to north carolina from texas, so I can't come back. That's why having a good patch wasn't much concern. Once I get settled in, I'm going to start over and get a good set up going. That was the plan now but this move caught me off guard.

leave it with a friend? not much harm done in somebody finding out you know how to grow once you're moving half way across the country... even if they do nothing to it if it sits long enough they'll probably get some in vitro fruits out of it.
good luck with your move, that's my all time least favorite thing to do... im at my 5th residence in 7 years (but hoping to finally stay!)

Good idea. I think that's what I'll end up doing.
Thanks for your advice.
