Has anyone been busted in the UK?
    #19285621 - 12/16/13 07:39 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

I was trying to find out if anyone has been busted in the UK for growing? There doesn't seem to have been any reports of it in the media since 2005 when shrooms became illegal.

I suppose growing must be pretty low on the police's radar. Less crime associated with mushrooms? Few mushrooms being sold by dealers?

I think it helps that you never really see a bulk batch of shrooms getting seized. Most growers would be small scale and able to disperse quickly and locally.

As far as the police are aware they're just really unpopular and not much of a concern. It's impossible to for a cop to sniff a grow, too expensive to train a dog to do so.  Even if a cop saw a grow unless it was at fruiting stage they wouldn't know what it is.

Plus there is no violence or crime associated with it. No gangs moving it it bulk, dealers are more likely to be friends of the customers.

They can also be picked naturally so it's hard to even determine a source. Obs we'd know libs are found, cubes grown, but the average person only knows of white or brown button mushrooms you see in the supermarket.


I would say that it's so discrete and small scale that the police have no idea of the true market.

I don't personally know if any growers in my city. And I've been on the scene 20+ years. No one knows how to grow them or even the foggiest of wat it involves.  People think they know how to pick them but they are very much misinformed. "Flip a cow pat and you'll find loads under em"

Scary thing is have heard it from more than one person.

First time I went foraging in a forest I came back with like 10-20 different specimens to practice identifying.  My bro looks at about 10 of them and goes 'aye, they're libs, definitely.'  Wouldn't believe me that they were completely seperate species growing off of rotten wood...
