Fucking shrooms. I bet we could legalize them and in less then a year every shroom shop in the country would be out of business. I would wager that an extremely small percentage of people that ever do them would do them again.
People who say you don't hallucinate on shrooms have never eaten enough. |

I would want it taken down if it was in my neighborhood only because of the type of traffic it can generate. I have first hand experience with this as a house down the street from me turned into a flop house for potheads after the parents died in an accident and left the house to their kid in their 20s. Went from nice house with nice maintained yard to him and all his friends trashing the place within a few months, cars parked in the yard and always some sort of gathering. Cops raided it one night and I think he got his shit together because he still lives there but don't ever see other cars there anymore.
I could not care less if you want to smoke dope or get high on shrooms, but I do not want the people that are permanently entrenched in that lifestyle frequenting my neighborhood. |

I may or may not have built some class 100 cleanrooms with self contained HEPA filters and had a few spares left over, and I may or may not have assisted my Architect neighbor in his attempt to cultivate some of said prohibited items
I also may or may or may not have financed a week long trip to San Fran for a Grateful Dead concert with some exchange of money for goods in the parking lot of said concert. Monterrey Bay Aquarium can be hugely entertaining with an altered perspective by the way. Many trips to the desert may have involved responsible use of psychedelics meaning that car keys and plug wires for dirt bikes were given to GFs with the strict instructions no matter what we say do not give us those back to us until tomorrow. I feel it was truly an enlightening experience(s) and do not regret the possible usage of an illegal drug. Oh by the way I can swear that I had an extensive conversation with a water Gnome who was quite entertaining. |

Yes it can be done and you can order syringes full of spore from websites in Europe. They grow them usually inside serialized mason jars filled with brown rice and vermiculite and soil. There is some science to it and it's hard to do without any contamination that will grown bad mold/fungus rather than the mushroom. It's not harmful at all to be in a mushroom grow. I think it's funny that the "experts told them to back out" . These are not poisonous mushrooms and they don't disperse harmful spores. In fact people will eat these View Quote Its a common misconception that these things only grow in dung. This is in fact quite easy to do. Back in the early days of the internet you could order the spores online from a college professor (who later went to prison after his growing "operation" was raided) somewhere in California. The spores themselves were and may still be perfectly legal due to the absence of any psychoactive chemicals. Once they reach a certain stage during cultivation they become very illegal. This Volk character and his team of experts are retards. Lab team? Protective suits? |

A buddy of mine from high school (back in the early 70s) ate a huge bag of shroons during a party we were having near a golf course. He disappeared until around dawn and that kid was never the same. When he got back he was still tripping hard, his clothes were torn and his eyes were all pupil.
I heard later that he was on all kinds of meds for mental health issues, a shadow of the kid I knew in high school. I don't know what he ingested, if the were real or laced with acid but it definitely fucked up his mind for life. |

They are surprisingly easy to grow.
Only special equipment is a glovebox (which you can build in a couple of hours) to transfer the spores, and a pressure cooker to sterilize the mason jars and grow media. |

I have done them 2 times in my life, both in high school. The first time it was me and my buddy that did them, and that night we happened to be at this little house party that consisted of this girl that I had had a crush on for a long time, and it turned out she liked me too. It was fall, we all went outside and hung out, it was great. Then I tried them when I was having a horrible day, thinking how much fun I had the first time I did them. It just made the day worse( and that is an understatement. It was fucking horrible), then I learned that it is one of those things that just magnifies how you are feeling at the time you eat them, good or bad. |
