my paranoia issue with mushrooms: dying
    #1719741 - 07/15/03 10:53 PM (20 years, 6 months ago)

ok ive been paranoid every time i eat mushrooms about that whole possibility of death thing. like if something goes wrong in the growing process, and some bacteria grows on a shroom, it can kill you. whats the deal with this? like is there a way to tell if a mushroom has gone "bad?" what has to happen to a mushroom in the growing process for it to kill you? what other physical risks do i run if i were to eat shrooms, namely p. cubensis? thanks!

you should catch the contamination long before the mushroom actually grows...if your jars or mushrooms look anything like this (http://www.shroomery.org/index/par/23418) then dont trust em...

other than that...no matter how weird you feel...thats just the shrooms...and you can't die from shroom poisoning (considering they aren't contaminated)...even if you eat your own weight in shrooms you won't have a fatal overdose....but you'll be in a totally different world for a few hours...

your best option in the growing process is to always use your nose. However do not directly sniff the jars as there can be dangereous bacteria. the smell will waft out. IF you smell anything other than mushrooms during the process use caution. watch for any colors on the mycelium. If it is all white an looks healthy your chances are good. Don't be afraid to lose a cake, it happens.
The only colors you may see are light yellow from excess moisture in the jars or blue if your cakes are dehydrated. There are some pics of diseased mushrooms in the Faq's. hope it helps

either get a reliable resource, grow your own, or risk getting sick, but forget about dying.

depends what kind of mushroom...psilocybe cubensis should be safe...however if you eat an amanita phalloides (destroying angel) then it will destroy your liver cells and kill you...

there is no better cure for paranoia than to educate yourself...go to The Erowid Mushroom Vault and read up...

some other useful links

once they are cracker dry they can't go bad they can only lose potency from air breaking the psilocybin and psilocin down.but they have been stored for years by sucking all the air out of the jars using a "food saver" so far the oldest mushroom powder that has been taken was about four years old with no potency loss(not mush if there was some)

If there were ever a "bad" cubensis shroom, the media would hop all over that. Have you ever seen stories of someone dying from eating a contaminated shroom? Maybe from eating the wrong species, but not from eating the correct one. Think about it, mushrooms grow in cow shit and people have been eating them for centuries/thousands of years. I don't know of anyone ever dying from eating a contaminated cubensis.

Of course I may be wrong. If I am would someone please correct me?

I'd agree with the 'educate yourself' position; make use of the enormous resources here and grow your own. The contamination forum provides ample information for determining if your mushrooms have become contaminated, and really the green mold is most typical and very easily recognized, both visually and by means of smell. Educating yourself with help eradicate the paranoia.
