I sort of got busted by my husband, and had to explain that I used to grow.... 1

I don't even know why I'm feeling bad right now. Probably because I've never shared my shroomy past with him.
Lets just get down to it....
Since I've come back I have been gradually getting back into fungal mycology and pulling out my old grow stuff.
Friday I ordered one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Autoclave-Steam-Sterilizer-Gallon-Commercial/dp/B00DE2LA8C/
I found my spore library that was locked in 3 sealed Ball mason jars. I found my test tubes and an unopened bag of rubber stoppers. I found my 3 of my field guides (which are probably outdated like a motherfucker)
I found the one thing that got me busted.... the old printout I kept when I first tried the PF-tek.
I'm sitting at my vanity doing my toes....... Husband is walking thru the house thudding the floor heavy like hes mad.
MACEY... MACE BABY.....
At this point I'm already tied up because I got nail polish on the hardwood floor and was getting it up.
Hes standing over me holding the PF tek printout wanting an explaination.
"you trying to put us under the jail?"
Husband: ....... This, this is not what I expected. These are magic mushrooms. Growing these are a felony. Manufacturing them can get us serious time.
I've never seen him this mad, I mean he was really pissed, shaking, trembling pissed. Then he looks over at my Surface and sees the shroomery.. OMFG.... He blew his top!
"You have this on the grid?!!!!!!!" Our IP is logged, blah blah blah....
Finally he calmed down enough for me to talk. Explained everything in explicit detail...........
So after I spilled my guts....... you want to know what this asshole did?
Went into a tinderbox where he kept his cigars and pulled out about 4 nuggets of weed. probably like 4 $20.
Then he gave me that blank Kevin Spacey tilted head stare... Then sat down and read the remainder of the Tek, and asked me how shrooms made me feel when I was on them..
Had to help him understand that shrooms were "dosed" and tripping was not an exact science like weed high.
I'm still cooking up jars next week when my clave shows up.

You should have just farted and both of you could have something to laugh about...
But seriously, if you're married, you should consult him prior to engaging in any illegal activity.

It's the fact that you guys feel guilty and are trying to hide your drug use, that worries me the most. Why do you lead such secretive lives from one-another?
Use this as an opportunity to bond and put the weird trust issues and double lives to rest.
That's more paranoia and anger than I'd ever allow into a dynamic.

Nah, no one wants to see my genes propagate.
Plus, I seek purely egalitarian dynamics, so that means you're probably a homosexual.

No, I'm pretty sure he/she was seeking a genuine internet marriage. The only thing we'd have to share are the tax breaks.
And I see what you did there (again)... http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/22165470#22165470
Amanita, if OP is ferreal, an ideal perspective helps. If it's a troll, they're not going to be able to break past that sober view. No?

I should have thought of that reply!
He apologized for yelling and sat down with me to talk. He was really sorry. Its the first time he's ever raised his voice at me and didn't like the way it made him feel. I am equally as guilty for not sharing all of my interests.
I guess (I cant believe I'm going to say this) I can go to Stamets' site and order some culinary spawn and make some edibles.
I think I'll get a few of those grow bags, Always wanted to try those.

Wait, so he still isn't cool with you growing actives? I'm all confused.. But I've been meaning to buy some edible cultures so I can grow some and share with friends and family and whatnot.
Also, not sure but will that sterilizer work for mycology work? It doesn't have much of a description for use other than for tattoo work. My guess it will most likely work. Also, it never states it's PSI, just says this "Working Pressure: 0.14 - 0.16 MPa"

MPa is a pressure unit. 1,000,000 newton's per sq meter in fact.
I don't actually know what that is in PSI

I checked it out, it's a 20-23 psi sterilizer then. Pretty cool IMO.

Stamets? I'm sure some shroomery sponsors sell edible species, and probably cheaper. If the worst comes to the worst, your hubby could legitimately claim Ignorance of illegal mushrooms by saying the mushrooms you cooked for him never had any 'psychedelic' effect.
I hear lions mane is a relatively easy, and tasty, mushroom to grow.
If you keep the cube grows to minimal levels, just enough for you, hubby and maybe a few choice friends, you might be able to 'blind with science' any police intrusion by passing them off as just one of the many edible mushrooms that you grow. I'd guess some "lions mane" would totaly throw them.
Good growing.

No one's gonna ask any questions you if you're serving up delicious mushrooms that you've grown yourself.
Plus, if you just start talking about mushrooms in general, most people will just leave you alone on that subject. When I first got into growing, and just mushroom knowledge in general, I forgot how little most people know about mushrooms.

He shrugged and said he wanted to try growing with me. He was actually shocked that I could do it. He was even more shocked when he learned that we can go from inoculation to fruits in about 35 days.
He said it sounded so simple. I reminded him that we could even go to the supermarket and clone store shrooms, but first had to understand bthe growing medium.
So now he's interested. He wants to do Portobello.. from what I hear you have to inoculate wood plugs and hammer them in to the medium. Its going to be winter soon. I think we can try sawdust spawn instead.
Its been a pleasant marriage so far... he's Jewish as hell

Awesome to hear how quickly you guys recovered and that it brought you closer!! Congrats OP. And if you can post pics/success stories of the portabellas, we'd be very grateful! Mmm
I like to marinade/grill them like steaks.

Just looked it up. 0.14-0.16 MPa = 20-23 psi. I'm guessing you could safely reduce your cooking time by 15-20 minutes to ~70-75 minutes.

I've never grown Portobello as their so cheap and easily found in shops, it hardly seems worthwhile, whereas lions mane and other more gourmet mushrooms are either expensive, or impossible to find.
If I remember right Portobello's are grown on a mix of straw and horse manure and like an 'active' (containing manure) casing. You'll need to check out the Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms for more info.
lol. Just realised you've been here since '99. Grandmother and sucking eggs eh.
Good luck.
