 Police say Portage man was growning psilocybin mushrooms....[IN]

November 3rd, 2009 - Chesterton Tribune
A Portage resident was arrested Saturday on a charge of manufacturing a Schedule I substance after Portage Police said that he had established a psychedelic mushroom growing operation in his home.
Nicholas Thewes, 21, of 1261 Camelot Manor in the Camelot Estates Mobile Home Park, was being held on no bond, police said. Manufacturing a Schedule I substance is a Class B felony punishable by a term of six to 20 years.
According to police, the PPD’s STOP IT Team was dispatched to Thewes’ residence in response to a report of an unknown odor coming from his home. Thewes declined to provide the officers with any information, police said, but on obtaining a search warrant they observed protective suits and a room covered completely in plastic.
At that point, police said, the officers evacuated the residence in the belief that they had possibly uncovered a methamphetamine lab. The Indiana State Police’s Clandestine Lab Team was subsequently dispatched to Thewes’ home to assist in the investigation.
“Upon further inspection, it was discovered that the residence did not contain a methamphetamine lab but contained a psilocybin mushroom growing operation,” police said. “Officers found and confiscated 400 Mason jars containing mushrooms and mushroom-growing materials and an AK-47 rifle.”
“It is unknown how long Mr. Thewes has lived at the residence or how long ago he started his growing operation,” police added. “Police believe he just got the growing operation up and running. The value of the mushrooms or the materials is unknown. Mr. Thewes does not have a criminal history with the police.”

Strange smells equals a search warrant? How about making them work for it judges? I wonder how many times searches like these turn up nothing.

Yea what the fuck, strange odors? Jesus Christ, my house smells like a gamut of fucking things. That is the most retarded thing I've ever heard. How the FUCK does that even come close to provoking probable cause.

Mr. Thewes does not have a criminal history with the police.?
So why does he have no bond again? No criminal history yet no bond amount, is this guy a killer or what, bail is only not given for people that are at risk for not showing up to court, ya' know, hopping a flight to a far off country with no extradition to the states. Idk the guy but even the AK doesn't really warrant getting no bail.

i didnt realize colonizing jars smelt so bad. and an ak is just a semi automatic rifle(not illegal if you have a license), doubt they would have mentioned your typical run of the mill .22 rifle.

Yup, at least in my state you just have to be 21 to purchase a rifle like that, but rifles like typical .22 and other hunting rifles are able to be bought at 18 I believe. Not completely sure. I did have to get my dad to buy my AR-15 for me when I was 19 because they wouldn't let me purchase it, at 21 I could have put it in my name, had the police not seized it, ya know?  sux. But yeah, I really don't understand the smell thing, there shouldn't be any smell, except for in the actual grow room when you have tons of mush, it does smell like one big mushroom, I love that smell. But you can't smell it outside my room barely, let alone outside my place.

I bet the smell was from the grains WBS can be quite smelly. Here's a good reason to get an AA pc as well, because they release much less steam (practically none) and thus smell than the cheapo versions.
As well I've found wheat grains to be the optimum spawn. It smells good like baking bread, can ce reasonably priced, reaches optimum moisture content more easily than any other grain I've observed including rye. Mycelium from the gourmet strains I've observed showed no differences compared to rye.

he lived in a mobile home, how do you think he needed a AK-47? that's a bit much for a mobile house isn't it?
he is obviously a drug dealer because he has one, it's a weapon to take out crowds of people not to defend a measly little trailer.

Ak-47 = Relativly cheap, larger caliber semi-auto rifle.
They dont sell "good guy guns" that are semi-auto cheap enough.
The ammo is dirt cheap compared to a .30 or anything larger.
I can also buy hollowpoints...... which, theoretically are SAFER than FMJ because of the increased tendancy to stay within the body of the target.
I have an AK.
I also have an SKS.
And a .45 pistol.
None of them have ANYTHING to do with dealing drugs. But thanks for the ignorant sterotype of anyone who decides to excersize their rights and defend their LIFE, LIBERTY and PROPERTY as best they can.
"that isnt a home defense weapon" = stupid argument..... come and try to break into my house.....
From the AK alone, I get 30 rounds before re-loading....
So bring your friends too. 
I can "home defend" the FUCK out of my house.
Inital firearm purchase was placed because the police are a GOOD 20 minutes away........
With a .22 and a decent aim, you could slay just as many people as with an AK in just about the same amount of time..........
In fact..... you are probably BETTER off with a decent 5 round bolt action hunting rifle..... since AKs are not exactly renowned for their accuracy.

I agree, that is bullshit.
However I thought he was in an apartment. Must not have payed close enough attention. He must have done all 400 jars of WBS to stink his neighborhood up that much that he had cops called about it. 400 jars is a lot and I can believe that the cops would get called for that stink I suppose. I can fit a max of 10 jars in my AA 925 so I would need to grain prep 40 times which would take days on end and would require a lot of smelly pre-soaking. I think doing WBS is the only way his spawn could have got him busted. However it is possible he was in the middle of drying (another smelly part) and he had a lot of wet crop. Usually they will count the weight of that as well though regardless.

I can't believe nobody brought it up that this guy might be a Shroomerite. The Shroomery is honestly one of the best places to learn how to grow mushrooms and a guy cultivating on this scale would have had to get his information from somewhere. This could be one of our own getting arrested.

This one is easy, he was in a trailer park, the hissing of the pc would alert anyone in the immediate area. if they got halfway close to the trailer when it was venting, they sure could smell something funky and combined with the sound of the pc hissing away might make them think meth. Im always scared my friends neighbors are gonna hear his and do the same thing to him

That true, I didn't think about the loud-ass PC. That would sound odd and alarming coming from a trailor.

AA pcs make no hissing and vent no steam and they allegedly last a lifetime (I had a cheapo 21qrt for 1.5 years before it was bowed and leaking).Nobody who's tried one for this hobby recommends anything else.

Not everyone has the All American one. I have a cheap small one.
It still works just fine, hobby wise.
Maybe it isn't ideal for large scale mushroom dealing operations, but it is just fine for a mycological hobby.
And how can it not vent steam or hiss? I've never used one so I am quite curious.

It has a pressure gauge and a valve. You bring it up to enough a boil so that steam is leaving the valve and then close the valve and you will not see anymore steam until you are finished. All you have to do is wander over to the PC and adjust and check the pressure ever so often so that it does not get too high or too low. Then you don't open the valve until the pressure is at 0 or your in your clean lab with it or whatever your customs are for sterile air.
This way there is unlikely to be boil-dry problems when doing bags(which need to be PCed for 2 hours) as well, because a lack of steam released means that the amount of water that is in the bottom at the beginning is more or less the amount you should have at the end.
My stove-top AA 925 is definitely my favorite new toy.

Man fuck all these theories. He was obviously snitched. There is not ONE SINGLE ASPECT of mushroom growing that will smell bad enough to to just all of a sudden get your door kicked in except snitches.

Have you ever done WBS in a weight style PC? He likely had to do at least 40+ batches to get that many jars. Imagine the concentration of smell if he did those all in relative succession over 4-6 days. Imagine if he did 2 batches a day for 2 weeks or 1 a day for an entire month.
I've seen reports all the time where police cite being tipped off, so I don't see reasons they would lie about it here. In fact this situation points the blame squarely on one of his neighbors who would have reported him.
This is fairly unprofessional anyway though, anyone doing that quantity should be doing spawnbags and have an AA pc anyway. I mean 400 jars and a shit PC must have cost near enough to buy enough jars, the bags and the AA pc.

Wow, you are so ignorant, what makes you think he didn't purchase the AK a couple years just to own one and it had nothing to do with the mushrooms whatsoever??

Do you think that like weed most people growing even in large amounts dont get busted, and this is where all the black market shrooms come from?

ignorant no, just stereotyping.
don't worry about it, it has been discussed and there has been a conclusion.
