Start a Colony from Mushrooms found Outside ?
    #8120344 - 03/08/08 04:18 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

How would one Save / Start a Colony of Mushrooms if they found some outside this season ?

Can you just take a part of a cap and place it in Substrate ?

Your best bet is probably spore print, to liquid culture, to substrate. Has anyone tried planting a cap before to see if it grows?

Well iam a Morel Mushroom Hunter, and every year I find some Psilocybe as well.

So why would I buy a Spore Print if I can just pick some.

When you say "Cleaner", your talking about the Genome of the Mushroom. Like if the mycelium is fuzzy or stringy ?

Iam pretty sure both are out there in nature ;p

no he's talking about contaminants like trich that ruins your grow. take a spore print from the caps you find, do a search on how to take a spore print if you dont know how to, its easy as hell. try it out a few times if you find shrooms alot. good luck.

and no i don't think trying to plant a cap is a good idea.
