winecap mycellium outcompeted

Hello does anyone have any experience with their winecap inoculations being out competed by blue wood fungus? I used hardwood chips from a dead but standing tree on my property mixed with some straw and layered with sawdust spawn in some holes dug in my garden beds. Most of the holes are being colonized by white hyphae (good) but two of them are almost void of winecap mycelium and instead are covered in a blue fungus that seems to be emanating from some of my woodchips. Even the pieces of sawdust spawn are covered in this blue fungus and the winecap mycelium seems to be getting outcompeted which I heard was almost impossible. Whats going on?

Hey Nick,

I have not had this experience with the winecaps. I hope someone can chime in!

I would love to see a photo of what is happening to your mushrooms.

That might help folks determine what is happening and why.

Wild fungi enthusiast here - Were the wood chips from a pine that was downed by pine beetles? If so, it's likely to be infected with Grosmannia clavigera or similar (stains the wood a blue-grey color) I've also heard that winecaps are pretty competitive, but knowing what they're battling might give you some answers.
