Newbie Questions (POO Growing)

Okay so I went to my local field like 3 days ago and found some nice patties with small shrooms on them. So I took them home, put them in an ice cream bucket, poured hot water on them, and let them do their thing. I know its not the best way of growing shrooms but i dont have the means to get a humidifier and all that stuff. Anyway, after 3 days i have a few nice sized, mature shrooms. I've harvested them and plan to eat them later today after making a few spore prints.
Anyway, here's what i plan to do...
I want to go back to the field, get more patties, and soak them in water for a few hours. Then i want to put them in a tupperware container, and use the patties i got before (which have an abundant amount of mycellium) to colonize the new poo. I want to break up the old patties and mix them around with the new ones. I plan to do all of this outside so as to avoid mold contamination.
1. Do you guys think its possible that this will work? 2. Should i use peroxide in my misting to help avoid contamination? 3. About how long will it take to colonize? 4. How often should i water/mist?
Thanks in advance for all your help! It's greatly appreciated = )

1. Its possible. not as likely as following a tek 2. Sure, why not? 3. Depends on spawn/substrate rates. 4. I truthfully wouldn't mist unless using a casing layer.

I sure hope that you know what the fuck your eating!~
What kind of shrooms were these?
Cubensis?
What State did you find these in?
What color are they?
Can you post a picture?

RoadKill:Im positive they are cubensis, I have identified them myself using spore prints and other various features of the mushroom. IM NOT AN IDIOT as you may assume and you dont have to curse at me. Ive been to the same fields before and i've eaten those mushrooms before and im not dead yet. They shrooms were found in Katy, Texas and they are dark brown at the center of the cap to a lighter tan color near the edges of the cap.
Like i said, ive already identified them as Active Mushrooms. I do not have a digital camera so i cannot post pictures.
EdgeKrusher: Thanks for the help man, I'll use a casing layer to further help avoid contamination.

Agreed.. calm down a little. Roadkill is trying to help make sure ya don't end up pushing up daisies. Poisonous mushrooms have a habit of making people do that, includign some cubie lookalikes.
