Am I really the only hunter? Where are the MH&I folks? 
Just to be clear I took your term fungus literally and hunt and database ALL fungi, and no longer consume active species.

Right now I buy my mushroom spawn (Shiitake, Reishi, Oyster, etc) so I can grow my own edible/medicinal mushrooms. I've done some hunting but am not confident in my ability to correctly identify what I'm looking at out in nature.

I only hunt my mushrooms. Mainly because noone grows around me but also because the reward is all the more sweeter when you have to work for it

Hunt, for the large majority.
I grew edibles before. Grew actives before.
Gonna get back into some grows this season. And trying to start hunting more, since I've been kind of distanced from it these past few years.

Just grew out of it. I used to trip plenty, but I learned a lot about myself and the world and just don't feel like taking them anymore. I have no problem though with responsible adults who choose to consume them.
I may again someday, but it has been more than two years....

I USED to grow, but due to special reasons, I just buy when I want to trip. Which is about 3 or 4 times a year :\

I'm surprised by these results. I had imagined that the vast majority would've been growers. I thought asking the question was a little silly, now i feel it wasn't!

I usually buy them, but I do go hunting occasionally. I would love to grow my own but I'm living at home still and I don't think my family would be too happy with me growing some mushrooms.

Hunt. By far the cheapest, quickest, easiest and most fruitful. Only downside is waiting for them to be in season.

Shit...Shroom life sucks for me...I'm forced to grow,. If I dont, I can't trip...Nobody around here has shrooms. Well, I take that back, I'm sure there's at least 1 person in my city that has shrooms for sale, But unfortunately, I don't know em, And I know ALOT of people in the drug game...Now I used to have a couple different shroom sources, but that was years ago, Now they're just few and far between..( I think this is cuz most of the "dealers" around here are black, and black people dont really fuck with shrooms)Now there some who do, In fact I know of one that I met on here,,he called me (cuz we live in the same city) and I heard his voice and was like "Damn, you black!?!, So they're out there, but real hood black folks,with gold teeth, and pistols and shit... Don't sell shrooms, or even kno where to get any. Not around here anyways (In Atlanta). So I've finally decided to just grow...I am supposed to have my spores today or tomorrow, and as soon as they get here, I'll be on my way to shroom heaven...I also plan on capitalizing on it, Considering everybody and their momma wants to trip on shrooms, But they dont know where to find any...Now they do!!! I really don't plan on just opening up shop tho. I have a few good friends that know alot more fiends, who know alot more friends, and so on, and I'll just work thru my close friends, that way, No narc.No jail..and plenty benjamins...How much do they sell for a gram around where you all live? Post your price..It was usually $10 to $15 a gram around here, and chocolates were $15 a piece..
