Can you? because if so that would be really awesome, I am in search of something to do for a living which I can be at peace with

Maybe if you are everybody's friend. Otherwise, I can't see you having enough customers. The problem with making a living off selling mushrooms is that most people only do them one to four times a year. Those weekly trippers are rare. Marijuana would be a much easier drug to sell if you want to make a living doing it. The only problem I had with chopping weed is that some people go overboard and do it all day, every day. When someone is noticeably addicted its just not cool anymore.

Sorry, I should have specified that I am talking about edible mushrooms such as Oyster mushrooms & etc. The psychedelic mushrooms would be just for myself & friends . If I could legally sell Cannabis I would absolutely be interested but I doubt that will ever happen for myself.

You're talking about operating a mushroom farm. Of course it's possible but you need to go BIG right from the start. It would take a sizeable investment to start a business like that. You definitely can't grow enough to pay rent by growing edibles in your home, they are so cheap at stores I don't even want to think about the scale of grow necessary to make it economical.

Yea they are so cheap in stores... food farmers are seriously ripped off IMO.
You may have better luck selling your edibles at a farmers market or on a busy street, though.

Yea farmers market is better option if you do grow a surplus.
I was just at one recently and they were selling morels, oysters, and some grow kits. Just made me wonder: How big is the cubensis part of their grow?
I can't imagine they grow all those edibles and don't have a secret area for actives haha
