WOOOHOO!! Wild mushies w/ PIC
    #7485894 - 10/04/07 06:16 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

About three weeks ago I buried one cased spawn of PF and one of Z+ in my wife's shade garden (served by an automatic sprinkler system) because of a fear the casing was showing early signs of contamination w/ Trich. I totally wrote it off and essentially forgot about it as a "discard" simply to preserve future indoor grows.

This morning while walking about inspecting the flowers, I was greeted with this happy sight!!! Check it out!! "Wild" mushies, and a NICE sized mycelial mat spanning several square feet!!! Note the popsicle stick marker towards the rear. I put that there to mark the "grave site" so I wouldn't step on it.


WOOOOHOOO!!!

So, boys and girls, don't fret the threat of contamination, at least in the fall. Dig a hole, cover it up...and see what develops!!!

Thanks, cbiegel! At the moment, I'm happy as a pig in you-know-what. I noticed the caps of two shrooms were cracked (too hot and a bit dry today) so I ran the sprinkler for 15 minutes and gave it a "light" but thorough misting. I MAY have to pick some tomorrow morning before I go to work. I'm terrified the squirrels will decide to have a feast at my expense, and I'll end up with none.

IMPORTANT: Anyone know if squirrels will eat cubies???
Thanks,
N.B.

Yes, squirrels can actually eat mushrooms/fungi. It's probably not more likely than nuts and seeds though, but you could easily put something over the shrooms to keep them out like an upside down casing tray or a bucket or 2. Maybe just a lil pile of leaves over them. That might look better in a garden :smile:

or, leave them alone, and urinate in a jar, and pour drops of urine around the perimeter of the patch, keeps most animals away, the smell of human urine. Good also for outdoor marijuana growth, keeps deer from nibbling your goodies! I have seen squirrels run off with all varities of mushrooms in their mouths. It's not uncommon, they only hoarde up nuts so they have something to eat during the winter, other months, they eat what is available, within their diet.

Awesome! I had some success as well with the same situation, got about 140 grams wet off a most-likey contamed bag that I buried in a compost pile outside.

And yep squirrels will eat damn near anything. The biggest threat to my shrooms was my 7 month old lab who eats any and everything he finds...I had to keep him away from the garden area for about a week.

OK...here is what I devised for mushie protection vs. squirrels! Simple, fast, cost = $0.00, and light, air, and water can get in and out.



Wife is visiting family for Columbus Day holiday (she's off on Monday) so I can leave this until Tuesday morning, no questions asked. LOL! Problem solved, I think!

Better close that gap in the upper left. Squirrels can flatten out like the rats they are to get through very tight places.

The outdoor ones, especially from something you had already given up on, always seem like more of a gift don't they?

Your wife doesn't know what you've been up to hunh? How did you manage that?

My solution would consist of a lawn chair, a 30 pack, and my .22 mag
