Beginning of a (hopeful) Subbalteatus grow log

I've tried in the past year to grow wild Subbalteatus from spores and specimens i have found in the wild. I have had little success but i have gained much knowledge. I started with just my stove and pots for sterilizattion using the pf tek cake method to grow subb cultures. never really thought i would finish a product but just wanted to mess around. I then got a pressure cooker and started using agar transfers to grain and learned quickly how to make my grain. (Took about 4 tries.)
I had the idea the other day to make an outdoor patch with the contaminated and older cultures by throwing them in a bin mixed with soaked straw (48hours), peat moss, vermiculite and potting soil. I then realized i wanted to try and incubate it.
This is 2 days after the whole mess was made.

The mycelium appears to be very aggresive in some places judging by the rhizomorphic growth. I hope i get to see the end.

This is my place.

Does anyone have any advice on what i should do next? this is my first attempt and I would like to know if i should case this or not either.
one last thing: what should i be doing when they start to pin? frequent fanning and misting?

Subbedhunter i take it your grow failed? Its been 119 days no other posts
Have you tried doing an outdoor patch? Or introducing subbs to a new lawn? Maybe like spawning to composted manure for a lawn then spreading?

Ive tried introducing subbs to new lawns, outdoor patches of straw, growing my own, Ive only been successful in growing a few small scleriota not even worth consuming. Im technically on the same grow since I have jars of colonized wbs from transferred samples from previous grows. If you would like, I wil post some pictures of what ive been up to.

Also how did you try to introduce it to new lawns? Just sprinkle the mycelium/substrate over the lawn? Or did you bury it? And was there grass yet or did you introduce it before it was grown out?

Ive actually tried several different approaches to making it move to new lawns. Ive used a giant Lc before, sprayed spores, dumped the stem butts on lawns. I only put them on new or recently installed lawns i believe will prove to be fertile.

I was going to start fertilizing the front part of my lawn by the mailbox with field poop regularly to see if subbs could be introduced to my lawn
It might make my lawn a little nicer but with you not being able to introduce subbs to a lawn its kind of discouraging
