California has it's drawbacks....

So, for the past several years i've wanted to start my very own little closet garden of some very special mushrooms. i've grown Pleurotus eryngii just for fun, (and food) to great avail, but here in Cali it seems highly unlikely that i'll be able to obtain certain steril spores without having connections in another state. Does anyone have suggestions as to how one in california can start a garden?

I got a spore print shipped to Georgia (spores are illegal here too) by ordering from a vendor in Europe. You'll pay through the nose on shipping, but you only ever need to order spores once if you do things right. MagicMushrooms.org is a sponsor located in Austria, their website doesn't mention any shipping restrictions but it might be polite to ask before ordering.

Maybe you could just take a road trip to another state and hit up a good smoke shop? A lot of shops have syringes or bag kits..

I'm going to have to agree that California is lame. I'm from Idaho though and we all hate Californians...

Just take a road trip up to oregon/washington during the late autumn and get some cyanescens/azurescens spores from the shrooms themselves Or down to texas/mexico during their shroom season and get some cubensis spores.

If they are not a sponsor your not suppose to post links. I know you didnt post one but just letting you know ahead of time. Your also not suppose to ask question regarding illegal things. You can order spores to Cali if you know where to look.
