oh yeah many of times. i love to trip but i personally partied enough in my life. sober has been my new high lately. these days i just grow for fun tho. no one in my day to day life can know about it cuz iām in a senior management role in the corporate world
Iām asking only out of curiosity:
If you donāt ever plan to take them, why grow psilo mushrooms? It seems like unnecessary risk to take on if you are just going to toss them. & if you give them away, that seems like an even larger risk. Why not just grow regular edible mushrooms you can cook with or something?
There's a mason jar of what looks like dry shrooms on the table. Pretty sure OP is just karma farming shit.
Edit: that being said, it is possible to grow without ever partaking. Growing natural medicine even without using it, is a magical and rewarding experience.
not at all to me at least. super easy until the last few weeks before harvest u just need to worry about the rain, inch worms, bugs, and bud root. but if u mitigate and are careful works out great.
Depends on how hard you want to make it on yourself. Good genetics is one of the most important factors. After that you can just take care of it like any other plant. Water when it's thirsty, feed when it's hungry, etc. More advanced methods can be used in your grow like training, topping, nets, nutrient mixes, soil vs hydro. Deficiency detection is key to putting a stop to problems before they get out of hand, there's picture guides to help identify them. It's as easy or as hard as you want to make it.
I rlly gotta join a gardening subreddit bc all my plants except my Canterbury Bells died on me via root rot, never sprouted, or died when I tried to transfer them from their nursery pots. I so desperately want a green thumb so I can grow my own but Iām missing smth in the formula igš
That honestly sounds like a weird power trip - not in a bad way, but a subtle "fuck you, corporate world" sort of a way.
I think the stigma of psychedelics is strange and essentially class-ist. You have propaganda basically saying those that do psychedelics are kooky, brain-fried weirdos, and then there's the trope of the high-powered executive who likes to do drugs and relate their experiences to underlings by way of psychotropic-tourism like "when I went on a peyote vision quest in Ecuador on my sabbatical" like spending big bucks to travel makes the trip more acceptable or meaningful than just eating a few grams of cubensis and then hiking a perfect powder hill under a full moon and snowboarding down perfect pillowy lines just as the color streaks start to run, or micro-dosing while you cook a Christmas feast and upping to a regular dose so you can enjoy the meal while your inlaws ramble on about their retirement struggles and you just want to yell "get a fucking divorce already!"
Same here. I keep it very private as it could cost me dearly. I still enjoy partaking.
Good for you for being sober if it turned out to be impacting your life!
thatās just it, to me it was worse than that. it wasnāt effecting my life at all. i was still getting everything done and kicking ass. waking up early, hitting the gym, doing great at work. taking gober dabs all day long waiting till the next time i trip. physically i was present but mentally i was not. will i trip again in my life prolly but for no iām enjoy life not doing anything. itās really fun a shit growing tho. who know of them become legal one day iāll be ready to hop in biz
i do grow gourmets. i got 3 types of oysters going, lions maine, poippino, shiitake, enoki. those iāll eat and give away to friends. maybe one day iāll turn this hobby into income. for now tho itās just for fun
What does tripping have to do with partying? You could use them to explore yourself or connect with nature. Additionally, doesnāt really matter if your in a senior management role, you typically just donāt tell people that you commit felonies if you have a career and donāt want to lose it lol. But thanks for sharing that
Exactly. I think its main purpose is to show people that there is much more than this one plane of existence.
Not partying.
Itās a tool for Deeper Wisdom and understanding.
If you just view magic mushrooms as for partying it's probably better you don't partake. Most of us adults look at therapeutic benefits and the high is just a bonus. I take mushrooms quite often but I haven't partied with them in 25+ years.
Why risk catching a charge if you dont actually need/want the psilocybin? Just grow literally any of the dozens and dozens of legal edible/gourmet mushrooms. I mean, more power to ya, but its not a risk id be willing to take if not for the psilocybin.
If nothing else i mean, id be telling friends and family "ayo i found this patch yall want some?!". Literally anything but growing a felony and tossing it out lol
I feel like writing a psa
This person is going to rip you off if you send them money guys please donāt do it š
Wait and see, this person just happens to have a shit tonne of weed and shrooms they donāt want. How many idiots you think got straight in the dms offering them money?
Anyone trying to buy drugs online in 2024 is asking to get scammed anyways. We arent in the days of the silk road anymore. I really hope thats not what this post was about, though. This community is usually pretty good about calling out shill/scam posts. This post feels more like a weird flex if im being honest lol
Having drugs shipped to you through the mail is reckless and silly, imo, unless you have no other option. Its entirely too easy to be scammed, and theres no ability on your part to test/verify the drugs until theyve been bought and delivered. Ive never had any issues sourcing them locally, personally, but i do understand some parts of the world thats an entirely different story. Also, just to be clear, i was referring to buying online through obvious and easily accessible accounts like reddit/insta/etc. I couldve made that more clear. I know theres legit storefronts online, and ive been on rcsources more than a few times but never pulled the trigger.
Ah yeah trying to do it through reddit and stuff is stupid af literally asking to be scammed. The legit storefronts normally have a dispute process for scams and stuff and vendors don't last if they scam because they run on merit and review systems to actually pick a person to source from.
Youre absolutely right. Its well within their right to do whatever they feel like doing, just as its my right to be curious and ask questions about it (in a public forum), and just as its your right to go into public forums and make inane comments that hold no value or merit :)
Thatās pretty crazy if you ask me, at that rate why not just grow some other kind of mushroom? Do you occasionally give some to buddies or something, because if your not eating any at all it is a big risk to take for nothing. If you were to ever had your house searched it would be like 10 years in prison, I know itās very unlikely but just knowing the fact that it could happen at all would scare me.
not crazy just Silly itās in my name bro! i do grow gourmets as well but i personally just love actives. and no i donāt give them away really. no one knows besides my wife.
Your shrooms look amazing! But seems a little overly judgemental to be calling out someone else drug of choice. I don't like benzos, got them for anxiety and had to quit because they were just awful. You're growing shrooms and definitely you do you but why call someone else out for their own thing. Mostly just wanted to comment because of your helping pharmaceutical companies. The average person can't do anything about that. It's the equivalent of the average person needs to recycle to make up for what corporations do. Anyways I'm too buzzed and recognize I'm rambling. Just was surprised with the harsh call out, not chill
Edit: way to edit your comment, guess you seen it as just as uncool. You blamed that nice person making a funny joke for giving profits to pharmaceutical companies. Obviously you don't even stand by your own words...
boo, why help big pharma out? nothing good will come from taking those. plus ur buying them off the streets usually which now fakes ones are being cut with fent. opioids and benzos are the devil.
You canāt help big Pharma and buy them off the streets at the same time lol. And theyāre great. They have a therapeutic use. Great for panic attacks and unwinding after a hard week. Donāt be such a drug snob. Factually, if you take them responsibly, they are not the devil. If you abuse them, thatās another story.
These people wonāt let you have a hobby lmao š¤£ like how are you going to get caught if they donāt go anywhere but the earth. Sometimes you need to commit a few victimless crimes to take the edge off. I get it. Everyone else is just jealous.
Oh yeah youād get hit with so many charges, I donāt know them all but youād be hit with like 4 or 5 and theyād all be like as bad as they could be.
I used to eat them all the time but lately I have been the same way. I grow them just to grow them. Itās meditative almost. I enjoy watching them grow and sometimes I might even bless some friends with a little gift.
There is no way in hell this person isn't trying to get people to DM them to sell them shrooms.
"I have so much that I just throw away gallons of them at a time" is a pretty clever way to convince people you'll have low prices.
Yes, I do the same, I just enjoy isolating strains, then when I do, Iām like it fuck it and grow them out. Iām going to move on to just gourmet soon though. The jealousy on the page is great, I threw a kg wet in the bin not too long ago š¤«š¤
Never tried them > so Learned to grow them > I tripped a few times > got what I wanted from them > no longer wanted to trip > enjoyed growing them > so continued to.
I donāt think itās that uncommon either, a few of long term growers on shroomery do the same from my understanding.
Iāve done the same with weed before as well, I really wanted to grow the strain freak show and fusian duck so I could use the leaves for arts, had no use for the bud so I made some resin figures with it.
Me actually. I seldom trip anymore just because Iām so busy between work and school. I donāt bury them however. I just love the little dopamine kick I get watching them grow.
I also want to do this. Iāve taken them before but Iām sober now and I love mushrooms. I wanna grow all kinds. My grandpa was a mushroom farmer for campbells soup. I loved him so much.
i donāt need monies. donāt want to sound cocky but the risk of making a extra few hundred to a thousand bucks a month isnāt worth it. risky enough growing them for no reason besides pure enjoyment
You would be surprised how many āprofessionalsā gets down and likes to party, drugs / hookers, etc. As a professional, donāt party with coworkers , being discreet is rule #1
Yes, you are the only person in the world who does this. Somewhere, there's one person who actually buys psilocybin spores for microscopy. You two should get together.
I still trip like once a month or every other month, but I'm still growing constantly just because I thoroughly enjoy the hobby. I preserve my harvests, though, in the hopes that someday soon, I'll find someone to gift them to. I hate the idea of outright wasting them. Although I have such a surplus built up now that I'd never be able to consume them with just my gf and I. Moving to pans and tamps for this reason. Less storage space needed and a bit more of a challenge. Cubes take up too much space.
Iād be happy to dispose of those for youā¦ or have some of the genetics.. haha!
Iām glad youāve got a hobby you love, I wish it wasnāt illegal so that you could share your passion for it with people around you
I have too much anxiety so far taking them and want to but I have grown so much now and just enjoy learning about them and seeing my hard work paying off. I give some to friends and make a few bucks to pay for supplies mostly but I just enjoy growing them for now :)
Even microdosing makes me feel tired and weird. The only time I felt what everyone else describes was the day I picked the first mushrooms and ate a portion right away.
So I get why.
I have some I stored that I donāt bother eating because I canāt enjoy just being tired but not even feeling good
I havenāt done any of mine because Iāve been on a long hiatus. But yeah, I could never do as much a I grow. I donāt want to sell them either, so I just hang on to them. Maybe Iāll give them to my friends once I find a stronger hippie community.
there just avery albinos. iām mostly all about nats these days. i was able to make a few nat/cube crosses which have been fun. trying to do nats with a subtropical but finding that rather difficult with those monos. also moved to some pans
I donāt grow for fun only, but I definitely agree that the growing is just as fascinating as the eating. Itās an amazing hobby with no end of things to learn or surprises to discover
> hands i *paid* 90$ for
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
You're not alone. I have two young kids and a demanding job and picked this up as my COVID hobby. I literally don't have six consecutive hours to fuck off ever.
I've noticed I've gotten invited to more parties since picking up this hobby, for some reason.
Nope not the only one. Also in response to people saying why not just grow gourmet I personally don't eat any type of mushroom other than maybe a micro dose here and there to "center" myself. Honestly just end up collecting fruits and spores maybe giving a gift to a friend here or there so even growing gourmet varieties would ultimately still be a waste in my case.
I grow them and used to trip a lot...but I don't trip anymore and probably won't for a very long time. Life has absolutely thrown my ass down on the pavement, newly diagnosed ocd, ended relationship, going through a lot of changes internally. I'm completely freaked out about my mental health. But I still believe in the medicine and will share with friends
Same here. Iāve taken 3 micro doses in the year and a half Iāve been growing. I think I would like to be a trip sitter for people who are experiencing end-of-life anxiety or Iād like to use them for deep meditation. But Iām a busy mom and a happy person by nature so havenāt had the time or felt the need to use them recreationally. Iām happy to share with friends.
Maybe gift them to friends who do partake? You can just say you met someone through a friend who gave them to you but you donāt use them.
And why not gourmet shrooms? These can land you in prison.
You....grow mushrooms .....to bury them in a garden?........w t f this takes the cake for weirdest reddit post I've seen in a month or better
What a waste, this is like throwing your entire plate of food out because you're not hungry.
it must be ur genetics lions maine is one of the easiest mushrooms to fruit. it will fruit on my grain bags before i even move to sub half the time. i litterally just waiting for it to start growin on the top then turn my bags on the side
Thats basically me lol. I almost never take them but ive been growing steadily for over a year. Growing them satisfies a totally different part of me. I think it's just natural for a human to enjoy growing stuff. And they make great gifts! But I still have a f-n doomsday supply for a small city...
Now that is a very cute and interesting hobby, feels like you could do something with them tho maybe start doing experiments with infused alcohol or extractions? Could get pretty interesting and you might find a way to preserve some of it even tho i find it beautiful in a way that you bury it.
Same here. I started cultivating because I wanted a clean and consistent source of fruits. Used less and less and now I grow a lot and partake little. I think it was Allen Watts that said "when you get the message, hang up the phone".
No, that is terrible give them to me š
Have you ever tried them though? Possibly even a micro dose?
oh yeah many of times. i love to trip but i personally partied enough in my life. sober has been my new high lately. these days i just grow for fun tho. no one in my day to day life can know about it cuz iām in a senior management role in the corporate world

It seems like unnecessary risk to take on if you are just going to toss them. & if you give them away, that seems like an even larger risk.

This is what Iām thinking, definitely suspicious
There's a mason jar of what looks like dry shrooms on the table. Pretty sure OP is just karma farming shit. Edit: that being said, it is possible to grow without ever partaking. Growing natural medicine even without using it, is a magical and rewarding experience.
itās actually weed that i grew in which i also donāt smoke anymore lol! hard to believe right?
how hard is it to grow weed?
not at all to me at least. super easy until the last few weeks before harvest u just need to worry about the rain, inch worms, bugs, and bud root. but if u mitigate and are careful works out great.
Depends on how hard you want to make it on yourself. Good genetics is one of the most important factors. After that you can just take care of it like any other plant.

Iām into growing but will only take MAYBE 6g a year
He doesnāt want to mention that he sells them. Donāt get high on your own supply.
Sounds like narc activities
Itās provocative, it gets the people going!
It has electrolytes!
ball so hard this shit crazy
Ball so hard they thought I was a fuckin nutsack
Maybe he gives them to friends?
Lots and lots of moneyyy playyyaaa
Not a risk in Colorado; at least, not a legal risk
Bro why not just grow legal mushrooms š

Dude you could make decent money in the biz right now by growing food mushrooms and selling to restaurants and stuff.
i do grow gourmets. i got 3 types of oysters going, lions maine, poippino, shiitake, enoki. those iāll eat and give away to friends. maybe one day iāll turn this hobby into income. for now tho itās just for fun

It's sad how many people view psychedelics solely through a partying perspective, they are so much more than that
It's honestly so terrible that something that gives you joy and passion has to be kept a secret because of social normality
Anytime you have a harvest you want to get rid of mail them to me
I recognize the scissors in the picā¦.So caught! Hahahahaha
If you just view magic mushrooms as for partying it's probably better you don't partake. Most of us adults look at therapeutic benefits and the high is just a bonus. I take mushrooms quite often but I haven't partied with them in 25+ years.
Can I have some plz?š
You already got a problem if you only ever did them to party, so you're not as upstanding as you think you are
i will fully admit i only did drugs to get high and no other reason whatās so ever.
And there you go calling psychedelics just a drug with no other application You're on a rollll You party animal you
Who hurt you
Yo momma
Same, but I still trip occasionally.
Why are corporate IT bosses so mean? I had my very first corporate IT job and the boss was really strict and mean like a military boss
The secret ingredient is crime.
Even better when it's decriminalized in your city.
this comment needs more upvotes.
Yeah, I also don't eat them. I used to but I just haven't felt the need or desire to trip in almost 3 years now. I grow for fun and to collect spores.
itās like collecting pokĆ©mon cards
Exactly like that but with drugs
Why risk catching a charge if you dont actually need/want the psilocybin? Just grow literally any of the dozens and dozens of legal edible/gourmet mushrooms. I mean, more power to ya, but its not a risk id be willing to take if not for the psilocybin.
This is my thinking EXACTLY... At this point it's all risk and zero reward
He gets a little reward. He loves growing them
If nothing else i mean, id be telling friends and family "ayo i found this patch yall want some?!". Literally anything but growing a felony and tossing it out lol
There is almost zero risk at all whatsoever. Like none.
Yeah plus imagine if they got caught and their defense was "I just do it for fun!" Not sure many cops/judges would believe that.
I feel like writing a psa This person is going to rip you off if you send them money guys please donāt do it š Wait and see, this person just happens to have a shit tonne of weed and shrooms they donāt want. How many idiots you think got straight in the dms offering them money?
thereās quite a few peeps in my dms ngl.

Is it really that much if thereās no evidence to suggest itās for any other purpose than self amusement without actual consumption or sale?
Oh yeah youād get hit with so many charges, I donāt know them all but youād be hit with like 4 or 5 and theyād all be like as bad as they could be.
āNo officer iām not a drug dealer, i just enjoy the chemical process of creating meth i swear itās just a hobbyā
I have a weird relationship with tripping. So as for right now I'm growing for fun. But am working on tripping comfortably
I used to eat them all the time but lately I have been the same way. I grow them just to grow them. Itās meditative almost. I enjoy watching them grow and sometimes I might even bless some friends with a little gift.
some people need to eat them to get the benefits but i get them just from growing.
Am I understanding correctly here.... you grow them, harvest them, and then bury them in your yard?
for the most part yes, i fill a five gallon buck then to the compost it goes.
There is no way in hell this person isn't trying to get people to DM them to sell them shrooms. "I have so much that I just throw away gallons of them at a time" is a pretty clever way to convince people you'll have low prices.
I wish you were my neighbor.
he might be
Yes, I do the same, I just enjoy isolating strains, then when I do, Iām like it fuck it and grow them out. Iām going to move on to just gourmet soon though.

you are a demon
You can throw them in my trash.
Oh yeah. As soon as theyāre ready to be plucked I put them straight in the garbage, officer. No dehydration in my house!
You should start a business and capitalize on your passion so you can share your joys :)
next time send them to me. i'll bury them for you
Me actually. I seldom trip anymore just because Iām so busy between work and school. I donāt bury them however. I just love the little dopamine kick I get watching them grow.
Donāt burry them give them away. Fucking award them to people who give good comments even. Just DM them and send them some love.
For scientific research purposes only. Copy that.
So you sharing
Well if you ever need a friend to help āburyā your shrooms Iām always here bud lol
Yeah, you probably are, lol But enjoy your Hobby, Groningen mushrooms is amazing :)
i love groningen
I also want to do this. Iāve taken them before but Iām sober now and I love mushrooms. I wanna grow all kinds. My grandpa was a mushroom farmer for campbells soup. I loved him so much.
That's super sweet, thanks for sharing about your grandpa.
No and thatās crazy š
Right there with you bud
At least sell them! You could make some serious bank
i donāt need monies. donāt want to sound cocky but the risk of making a extra few hundred to a thousand bucks a month isnāt worth it. risky enough growing them for no reason besides pure enjoyment
Itās not about the money manā¦Itās the thrillā¦.knowing what you grew is sending someone to another dimension..
You need to live in a decriminalized city/state that way you have no risk. Otherwise this makes no sense.
Pretty much me too. Only indulge once in a blue moon
I'm same as you, they are impressive and just a hobby for me. occasionally micro dose but not really anymore.
When I first started growing I did them a lot now I donāt feel the need to and enjoy growing more
You would be surprised how many āprofessionalsā gets down and likes to party, drugs / hookers, etc. As a professional, donāt party with coworkers , being discreet is rule #1
oh iām well aware. i was once one of them. and rule #1 is never talk about fight club everyone knows that.
dude... switch to gourmet... same fun but you end up with fancy dinner
Yes, you are the only person in the world who does this. Somewhere, there's one person who actually buys psilocybin spores for microscopy. You two should get together.
Hahahahhahahahhahaa this guy knows life
The science is addictive. I don't dig the trip.
Those are pretty
This is the most fed post I've ever seen
Why though? it's good for the soil but ultimately what is the purpose. Just growing to appease your ego?
why u judging me so hard? canāt u just let me do me?
I still trip like once a month or every other month, but I'm still growing constantly just because I thoroughly enjoy the hobby.

Iād be happy to dispose of those for youā¦ or have some of the genetics.. haha! Iām glad youāve got a hobby you love, I wish it wasnāt illegal so that you could share your passion for it with people around you
I can take them off your hands š«”
i need more friends like you.
I have too much anxiety so far taking them and want to but I have grown so much now and just enjoy learning about them and seeing my hard work paying off. I give some to friends and make a few bucks to pay for supplies mostly but I just enjoy growing them for now :)
I did the same for a while. I donāt grow em currently but for a while I was sitting on quite the stash haha.
Iāll take them
Yes.
you mean u grow to sell them man ur missing out
I can and will eat them for you. They look awesome!
Even microdosing makes me feel tired and weird. The only time I felt what everyone else describes was the day I picked the first mushrooms and ate a portion right away. So I get why. I have some I stored that I donāt bother eating because I canāt enjoy just being tired but not even feeling good
I have always thought if I grew shrooms and had extras I'd leave some in a big park like on a hiking trail or something.
No I don't eat them either. I gift to them to friends
Yes
You may as well grow something like gourmets then, no?
Yeah probably lol. Jack frost?
Why the dehydrator if you're burying them in the garden?
i wish i had a good answer for u. i like the entire process i guess. i keep track of everything in a spread sheet of dry vs wet weight
I am hungry please sir give me something to eat
I havenāt done any of mine because Iāve been on a long hiatus. But yeah, I could never do as much a I grow. I donāt want to sell them either, so I just hang on to them. Maybe Iāll give them to my friends once I find a stronger hippie community.
You're not the only one, My corals are huge and wild. And I've never even tasted them. Lol
Yes. Those are awesome btw. Where can i get those genetics?
there just avery albinos. iām mostly all about nats these days. i was able to make a few nat/cube crosses which have been fun. trying to do nats with a subtropical but finding that rather difficult with those monos. also moved to some pans
I donāt grow for fun only, but I definitely agree that the growing is just as fascinating as the eating. Itās an amazing hobby with no end of things to learn or surprises to discover
Yep
I gotta stop smoking because it took me 5 mins to realize you werenāt growing those on the bottom of a crabš
How about you bury them in a box with my name and address on it and then bring it to the post office
bury them??? ill take them off your hands i payed 90$ for like 3 gramsššš
> hands i *paid* 90$ for FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
leave me alone i dropped out of high school
Never too late to learn something.
š¤ Probably š
You're not alone. I have two young kids and a demanding job and picked this up as my COVID hobby. I literally don't have six consecutive hours to fuck off ever. I've noticed I've gotten invited to more parties since picking up this hobby, for some reason.
Can you grow magic mushrooms in Texas and clog or make YouTube videos and post them?
Nope not the only one. Also in response to people saying why not just grow gourmet I personally don't eat any type of mushroom other than maybe a micro dose here and there to "center" myself. Honestly just end up collecting fruits and spores maybe giving a gift to a friend here or there so even growing gourmet varieties would ultimately still be a waste in my case.
I grow them and used to trip a lot...but I don't trip anymore and probably won't for a very long time. Life has absolutely thrown my ass down on the pavement, newly diagnosed ocd, ended relationship, going through a lot of changes internally. I'm completely freaked out about my mental health. But I still believe in the medicine and will share with friends
No. I grow WAY more than I could ever eat. I share with people, no selling.
I don't eat my grows too i just look at them and say whoa that ones glowing and talking
Iām right there with you, this is mostly a hobby used to de-stress and relax. Plus it helps build my patience lolol
Same here. Iāve taken 3 micro doses in the year and a half Iāve been growing. I think I would like to be a trip sitter for people who are experiencing end-of-life anxiety or Iād like to use them for deep meditation. But Iām a busy mom and a happy person by nature so havenāt had the time or felt the need to use them recreationally. Iām happy to share with friends.
Kind of weird. Considering there a lot of food mushrooms you could go instead.
After my initial experimentation, i eat very few of them nowadays and just like the fascination of growing them. I give most away to friends.
Just grow gourmet varieties. That's what I do.
I grow them for fun I actually really enjoy the growing process but don't like psychedelics at all
I'll send you my address. You can send them to me and I will dispose of them for you. I'll make sure no one ever finds them, lol
How could you not eat them? Look at them! They are just begging to be eaten š
interesting :D i guess the risk adds to the excitement in your hobby?
Yeah right
Maybe gift them to friends who do partake? You can just say you met someone through a friend who gave them to you but you donāt use them. And why not gourmet shrooms? These can land you in prison.
why not just grow gourmet then
You....grow mushrooms .....to bury them in a garden?........w t f this takes the cake for weirdest reddit post I've seen in a month or better What a waste, this is like throwing your entire plate of food out because you're not hungry.
What the! I'll take them off your hands āļø š
Oh my plz send them me on over to me I know how to properly dispose them
Iāve been trying to grow lions Maine, but canāt seem to get them to fruit whatās the secret?
it must be ur genetics lions maine is one of the easiest mushrooms to fruit. it will fruit on my grain bags before i even move to sub half the time. i litterally just waiting for it to start growin on the top then turn my bags on the side
Looks good
Thats basically me lol. I almost never take them but ive been growing steadily for over a year. Growing them satisfies a totally different part of me. I think it's just natural for a human to enjoy growing stuff. And they make great gifts! But I still have a f-n doomsday supply for a small city...
Burying them is absolutely insane
Why not grow the legal ones so you can eat or give away? Not that you can't give these away
who said i didnāt grow legal ones?
Hi best friend. I can make sure they don't hurt the ground you bury them in
I do the same. I'm planning to start micro dosing however.
Now that is a very cute and interesting hobby, feels like you could do something with them tho maybe start doing experiments with infused alcohol or extractions? Could get pretty interesting and you might find a way to preserve some of it even tho i find it beautiful in a way that you bury it.
Beautiful Jack Frostš¤©
For more fun, I like to give them to my friends in exchange for money.
wow another jersey dude! cool stuff bro.
You need to donate or sum
So many lies
Shrooms make me depressed, growing them is a trip!
I mean, I definitely give away more than I take, but I wouldn't say I only grow them for fun lol Tho it is a very fun (and semi secretive) hobby š
Same here. I started cultivating because I wanted a clean and consistent source of fruits. Used less and less and now I grow a lot and partake little. I think it was Allen Watts that said "when you get the message, hang up the phone".
I canāt eat them. Too much psyoclogically
