I'm talking really rare, parasitic type shit.  I don't think it'd be in the air everywhere, just in particularly damp forests in weird ass countries or what-have-you.  Maybe I'm just imagining that I read all about those too.  :shrug:

It doesn't strike me as far-fetched though considering we get all kinds of fungal infections other places.

seems pretty realistic really after all some fungus(Ophiocordyceps unilateralis) infect ant(my fave creature of all) and actually controls its life to ensure its own survival and them when finished with the ant it grows out of the ants head and sporelates!!

killing the host!

edited above with name:thumbup: not sure if that cordyceps does but yes similar

and militaris may aswell, not sure, look at what it says in that link...

"The theory is that every species of ant has its own species of fungi that it gets infected by," de Bekker told Live Science

so lots of fungi do and i imagine different insects and creatures, maybe even us humans do without even knowing.

maybe cubes and other active take over our bodys and do mind control shit and we just hosts and thats why they can make us trip as they are set as parasites that control nervous systems lol

or we are not their intended victim so dont live in us but instead chose to use a certain mammal as a host for whatever reason.

or they did in the past and have evolved away from a paracitic lifestyle and are still left with the pathways that alter conciousness still.??:shrug:

like us with our appendix from when we used to eat more plants and uncooked food so needed to remove oxalate crystals from the food source.
we still have it but is redundant.

got me scared :laugh2:

the shrooms made me do it!!

You should check out Apophysomyces if you're interested in parasitic fungi. It is kinda barf worthy tho lol.

Quote:


Health officials should be aware of infections caused by the fungus Apophysomyces, according to the studies, which tracked 13 people infected by the pathogen during the Class EF-5 tornado -- the most powerful category -- whose 200-plus mph winds plowed through Joplin on May 22, 2011, initially killing 160 and injuring more than 1,000.

The common fungus -- which lives in soil, wood or water -- usually has no effect on people. But once it is introduced deep into the body through a blunt trauma puncture wound, it can grow quickly if the proper medical response is not immediate, the studies said. Five of the 13 people infected through injuries suffered during the Joplin tornado died within two weeks.

Spores taste bad and it's mostly water weight, have you not read the thread you started?  Plenty of good info in here.  Only one or two pieces of bad info and they were stomped out pretty good.

After a fruit reaches a certain period of maturity it stops producing tissue and begins to "inflate" like a water balloon. So you get more water content and less potency.

On a side note, I actually got pneumonia last year and attribute it to spores dropping. They found pulmonary nodules in my lungs and it turned out to be a fungal infection.

It's all just speculation though. You don't know for sure about cube spores that is, but I was reading up on mycotoxins and they're in basically every contam we get. Lots of the green molds, purple and pink, and a lot of black molds. Contaminations in general aren't good for health. Especially if you have a weakened immune system. Check it out:
http://www.mold-help.org/content/view/457/

It has a list of common mycotoxin producing molds, as well as what toxins. See how many you know :P

Hey inocule and bob, found an RR quote, so it must be true! :lol: no but seriously, you were talking about stuff growing in lungs and what not.. See what I found :0

Quote:

RogerRabbit said:
True.  For some people, the spores are just an irritation, but for others they can be really bad. 

For example, I can no longer grow Elm Oysters indoors due to a massive spore release one time when I already had the flu and felt too shitty to harvest the fruits that were ready to pick in my mini-greenhouse, located in my bedroom.  They filled the room with spores and I nearly died. . .seriously.  I tried growing them a year later, and when the very first substrate block fruited and dropped a few spores, I was unable to get my lungs to even take in a breath when I was in that room.  Mrs Rabbit had to get them out and clean out the greenhouse for me, and throw away ten or more substrate blocks that were just beginning to pin.

Cube spores mostly just make a mess, but I can see if one developed an allergy to them, it would be bad.  People with AIDS or other immune system diseases should avoid exposure completely.  Trichoderma has definitely been found growing in people's lungs, along with a few other species.
