Idk mushrooms seem easier to me still but people are different I guess. Also out of the 4 things you listed needed to grow shrooms, you only needed vermiculite off of that list.
I'd say taking into consideration the price/duration/ease of access to items needed, mushrooms were easier.

I agree.
You dont just go buy veg and flower nutes, get some water and soil, and a light and call it a day.
Actually, that is exactly what you do.
Nah, its not what you do( it is what you buy but there is much much much more detail that goes into it). If that is your attitude, then your grow op will most likely be subpar at best.

Everything I do with plants seems like effortless ease personally. I guess it's because I love it so much.

several different concepts...............
is it a fast easy personal grow for pure sport? is it a semi serious for 1-4 peeps usage? or is it a real grow op in mind?
ill suggest, greens, boomers, and cacti, indoors or out, personal is sorta easy, real grow ops, are mostly for the most serious.
once again, 10% growers, 90% of the production. ya have to ask yourself , where ya fall on that margin, and ,what the effort/ yield ratio, is for you.
all said, never hurts to read alot, forget most of it, and , start throwing treasure and effort at experiments......... you know, the time honored grow campaign.

Well I must just have a natural greenthumb because this is exactly what I do, of course checking for pests,mold which takes no effort really except to look.
I do not worry about temp, just an intake and an outtake.
My weed is highly sought after . . .
I live in a very high output weed area and literally all of my friends grow weed and grow it well. I have seen quite a few of them try their hands at mushrooms and fail miserably.
The fail rate for mushrooms is a lot higher than weed

It's not AT ALL hard but if you want to do indoor, it requires a bit more effort and LOADS of money. My uncle plops clone in his back yard and they grow themselves. Its damn good too

Ok, the OP stated he was doing it for personal use, This DOES NOT cost loads of money. You can get one light for a couple hundred bucks, and once that is paid for that is the biggest investment. And it cost me around 90 dollars a month to run a 1000 watt light. Add in a few nutes and some soil and it is still WAY LESS MONEY than an average stoner would pay for weed.

Also, it is a lot harder to get mushrooms to pin, than for weed to sprout or grow a clone

The uncertainty that you express indicates that you may procrastinate the endeavor. Consider this. 2 months from now you'll say to yourself, "had I started this process 2 months ago, I'd almost be ready to harvest cannabis plants." Do you want to fidn yourself in that position? If not, just start now.

I don't think you can grow outdoors while there's chance of frost.

Well you might be able to put a canopy over them at night to protect from frost but what a hassle.
I would be more concerned with the light cycle, wait till spring.

You cannot do outdoors right now because the lighting schedule is not right for vegging. You need to start them in the spring for outdoors

You can't just throw plants outside at any time of year, the days need to be getting longer to veg, as they begin to shorten flowering will be initiated. The additional size you can achieve is probably the biggest advantage to an outdoor grow, check out some of the TREES people in Cali/Jamaica/Morocco manage to get, they are jaw dropping if stressed/trained properly.

You don' think veg lights, manure or perlite can be used to grow weed..? May I ask why not? Manure is a great fertiliser, perlite is almost essential for soil aeration (I only buy my perlite at weed supply stores as you can get 100ltr for about £12/$20, a 6ltr bag at the hardware store costs £8-9 here..) and the lights are well...lights. I use the same fluoros from my old Martha set-up to veg my clones/mothers.
