What nutrients do mushrooms require to complete their cycle of life?

I have to answer the questin of what nuts. a psilocybin mushroom needs to complete it's life cycle. For all purposes, do wood lovers require slightly different nutes?

Mushrooms are not like plants, that need so much nitrogen, so much phosphorus, so much potassium, micronutrients and water.

They eat their food, the same as we do, so they require complex foods (the same as we would not survive eating what plants eat).

Obviously, there has to be certain proportions of the different kinds of nutrients, but it isn't as crucial as in plants. Generally, we try and imitate what they feed off in nature, and they enjoy variety. For example, a mix of grain, poo, straw, coir and coffee grounds will probably keep the mycelium much more happy than just coir on it's own.

Just avoid any foodstuff that are strongly specific to a kind of nutrient,or add them in small amounts (stuff like chicken poop or vegetable oil)
