magic mushrooms being *attracted* to certain people

good day all,
i believe, as many of you do, that the cultivation of magic mushrooms is sacred work.
yes, i understand the science of it, but it seems that some people, no matter how valiantly they try, are unable to grow shrooms and certain people grow them with extreme ease.
i've heard before that many people who search for mushrooms in nature believe that the shrooms draw them, or are someway attracted to specific people on the basis of their intention, energy and degree of enlightenment.
have you heard this as well? do you have any anecdotal (or otherwise) evidence or personal experience with this idea? could it also extend to the growing of mushrooms?
it's a concept that i am very interested in. it seems that when i undergo a personal raising of my consciousness, my flushes increase and there is a general sense of flourishing in my grows.
peace to you all.

This thread was moved from Mushroom Cultivation.
Reason: I'll move this to the experience forum for you.
In my opinion, you're confusing cause and effect. Many people are hard working, smart, spiritually inclined individuals who are interested in expanding their horizons, physically and mentally. Others are lazy, stupid, non-spiritually inclined, who only want to get fucked up.
The former succeed at growing mushrooms because they work hard and are intelligent enough to know that nothing is easy, while the lazy simply fail, decide it's too hard and move on. RR

interesting opinion zergroz, although this post proves I disagree. OP what you're talking about is something beyond my ability to understand, but I would like to believe that you are on to something-
There is actually a lot of things beyond our understanding that are fun to try and poke at, and I think this is one of them. I'm sorry though I don't have much to add otherwise.
The Mushroom need a human nervous system to do its thang, so a highly developed nervous system would really draw them little critters. There is an electrical attraction between the highly developed nervous system and the psylocybin molecule

No. Proper environment, sound procedures, patience, and determination will produce results every time. Mushrooms aren't "biased" against certain people growing them.

The more you want it, the more determined and adamant you are into getting them. I just grew my first mushrooms and ended up having gigantic monsters spawn simply from listening to my instinct and good judgement (along with hours of research on this site!).
I won't lie though. I love the way the mushroom looks, it has some sort of charm to it much like the smell or shape of cannabis allures others.

Mushrooms are definitely attracted to some people. I've never wanted to eat them, but on many, many occasions, they wanted to be eaten by me. After much peer pressure, they finally convinced me that I should allow them the experience.

Think about it, one of the most experienced mycologists on these boards is telling you that you have it backwards. The man has broken growing mushrooms down to a fucking science, and so can you, if you want to put forth the effort.
The more you learn about mushroom cultivation, the better your mushrooms will be. You can delude yourself with superstition, but if you were to take the scientific aspect seriously, the nonsense you believe about your mushrooms would prove to be just that.

Yeah... this TBH.
It all sounds like something that is to Terence McKenna's craziest ideas... what Terence McKenna's craziest ideas are to ordinary coherent thoughts. So it's pretty out there
