If you do things completely wrong, you'll end up with loads of contaminated substrate or nothing at all.
Unless you're growing Galerinas, you won't be killing anyone.

I hunt my shrooms, deep in the back of my brain, that thought always sits.
I ID, review, post an example for verification, verify that all examples resemble the posted example, spore print and still maintain a healthy respect for what I am embarking upon.
I think (at least for hunting) if you get too comfortable with what you're doing, you run the risk of making a fatal mistake.

When I first started and had my first homegrown batch, yes I was a bit apprehensive. I'd never even seen mushes before then. But after much reading and growing more batches it will be obvious if you are growing the right thing. If you properly dry and store them they are perfectly safe except for what you imagine into being.

Life is a risk... Driving... Working... Flying... At some point, you can worry about everything or try your best to not kill yourself or others... Avoiding drinking and driving, no cigarettes, exercise, eat right, etc....
I would say all hobbies have risks, but not having hobbies does to I think... Be safe, think a head and relax
Peace

This. You take more of a risk every time you get in a car than when you shroom (if you're cool about it).
