Cows have multiple stomachs. They are also one of the only animals with no stomach acid, so as the cows graze the pastures and eat the grass they are also eating millions of microscopic mushroom "Spores" (seeds).
The mushroom spores then slowly pass through the cows multiple stomachs unaffected by stomach acids. Goats, However have Stomach Acids so you will not have as many shrooms in a Goat Field as to a Cow Field. But yes, They are still there. Happy Hunting :)
If improperly stored, fungus can grow in magics mushrooms (mushrooms themselves are a speciece(sp?) of fungus). However, magic mushrooms themselves do not cause any diseases, any other than getting a food infection from fungi that can grow on improperly stored magic mushrooms (which can also happen to normal mushrooms or any other type of fresh food).
Mushrooms are grown in almost every country. There is no data on the exact country of origin and the fungus can be found in all but the coldest climates. If you are wondering about one specific type of mushroom, you need to ask that in the question so we can answer it.
Yes, however you may have a hard time getting them to fruit. They seem to require some light in order to fruit. Oklahoma State University has a "Growing Shittake Mushrooms" fact sheet that details how to grow and fruit mushrooms.
Because the African savanna has a very arid climate, there are less instances of fungal growth than is seen in damper areas. However, there are still instances of fungi that grow in the savanna such as turkey tail mushrooms, crimson cup fungi, and sulfur shelf fungi.
Because there is stomach acid, I think...
No, there are many species of magic mushrooms, many of which do not grow on dung at all. For example, several species of the genus Psilocybe grow on decaying wood, not cow dung.
mushrooms grow on cow dung!
No, not all cow patties produce magic mushrooms. The conditions must be right for the mushrooms to grow, and mushroom spores must be introduced into the cow patty in some way, such as by wind dispersal.
The Psilocybin mushroom, or as it is more commonly known, magic mushrooms
Mushrooms are grown in moist areas with constant soil temperature. Mushrooms do NOT grow in cow dung.
To a certain extent yes. Normally they grow around it, not actually in it. I would stay away from small mushrooms growing around it though. Not all mushrooms are edible. Not all are psychedelic. Some are just plain poisonous. Catastrophic liver failure might result from eating various mushrooms. Permanent Brain-damage might result from eating psychedelic mushrooms.
First of all, you should not need to know how many spores are needed to grow "magic mushrooms" but it would be the same as for regular mushrooms. As mushrooms are a fungus, they can grow from only one spore..
No
NO!
Yes
yes
I'll give that an impossible sticker. Who ever told you that you can grow magic mushrooms with little rabbit presents? That's very silly.
