Hi Pastywhyte, why is it a problem? Why is our tendency to anthropomorphize anything different than translating words from one language to another? How do you KNOW they don't want love or attention?

I get grows like that by not messing with them. I set everything up and dialed in and other than a daily check in to ensure trich ain't rampaging or stuff ain't drying out I leave them the hell alone. Its those people constantly looking in, unnecessarily misting and fanning, etc that have problems. Remember our greatest enemy is contamination and the number 1 contam vector is you. They are similar to reptiles. They need their space.

I should also state that for open air grows and cakes in SGFC a little more attention is needed due to conditions provided. But only to a point. Exceed that and problems will arise.

Wow!!! Great pics Pastywhyte!!! As I stated before, I'm certainly not willing to risk contamination for the sake of giving them good energy. Do you think sound (music) vibrations could have any negative effect? Notes or photos taped on the outside of their chamber? Overdoing anything is obviously not a great idea. I am good with not disturbing the setup or risking any kind of contamination. I guess the things I'm talking about are less invasive. Do you see any problem with those ideas?

I think they are pointless but if it makes you feel good then go for it. I named a tub once, put a tag on it,  etc. Its a good tub but I have zero delusions that its was my aesthetic enhancements that cause the grows in it to do well. It can see trich just as easy as any other tub.

If you really want to indulge in superstition the general sentiment is that mushrooms just want to be left alone. Do a search. You'll find lots of comments like "Don't check them all the time" and "Don't peek" and "Forget about them for a couple weeks." :shrug:

I also believe mushrooms are "happiest" when you don't tear them from their home and eat them. That's just cruel.

Speak for yourself! Lol... Last time I checked, mental illness was not a qualifier to be female. Men can be emotional bi-polar (tub throwing) bitches too. Sounds like a you guys are a good match IMO. :grin:

I take on hobbies, like growing shroomies, to keep me from doing the things I sometimes think to myself when my man acts like he has sand in his vagina. So yes, even as an atheist, I think cultivation is a form of meditation and semantically speaking, spirituality.

When women get familiar with a man they like to push his buttons.  It's just a given.

Mine's pretty good at not pushing mine most of the time. She has seen how bad it can get and now works to keep me from being set off. She don't want me to end up in jail from smashin some dudes face in a bar fight or tearing doors off hinges etc. A good woman. She even tries to keep a little weed stashed around just in case I need it. For emergency rage prevention please pack bong.

Yeah hopefully they know about those buttons and keep them safely hidden away.  That's a good trait indeed.  Sometimes I just give mine a look and she knows to take over talking so I don't make a scene. :lol:

I typically try to avoid conflict, go quiet, and let myself cool off before I speak. If I'm still angry 24 hours later I'll say something. I used to blow up. I realize it just makes me look like an idiot.

I fully use mine for spiritual uses. Make a ritual about it as often as i can. I believe that when I treat them nice they treat me the same. Maybe it's the attitude I have toward them that influences the trip but regardless who are we to say any one reality is the right one. If theres one thing these experiences have taught us it should be that.

If anyone, scientists.  They are to say.

They are primary decomposers.  They don't need a buddy to talk to.

People LOVE to associate meaning with them because they contain a psychedelic substance.  You don't get that kind of weird shit with people who just grow edibles and nothing else.

these ideas have been widely debunked as pure nonsense.

energy can be measured, but this kind of energy cannot.
the reason being that it is imaginary energy.
it doesn't actually exist.

you should google a guy named James Randi and what he has to say about it.

have you ever actually eaten a mushroom?
that's where the spirituality comes in...



DaveyJones, if you believe that the spirituality comes in at all, then how can you believe that it doesn't exist? We can't measure other universes's black holes yet either, yet we know they exist. What if (pure speculation lol) it can and has been measured and this information just hasn't been made public? What if it's actually a constant? What if the C in Einstein's E=MC2 is actually consciousness (I mean we are proving that the speed of light is actually not a constant, and why did he use a C instead of an S to supposedly represent the speed of light in the first place)? And yes, I have eaten shrooms. :sun:




i'm not saying spirituality doesn't exist, i'm saying the 'energy' you want to manipulate doesn't exist.

and if E=MC2 = consciousness, all it means is that we are already in the matrix, and everything we have ever experienced is artificial, figments of our own imagination.

and we cannot measure black holes, but we can measure the effect they have on the matter surrounding them.


but what is spirituality anyway?
i don't think it has anything to do with believing in silly things or trying to manipulate things you presume to understand.
these things to me are the opposite of spirituality.

true spirituality is what happens when you eat a mushroom and spend 4-6 hours looking in a mirror learning how to improve yourself.
spirituality is asking the difficult questions, or looking at things you really wish you could hide from yourself.

spirituality is not looking outward, it is looking inward.
after all, that is where the spirit lives.

spirituality is about asking questions, not presuming to know answers.

DaveyJones, are you denying that our electromagnetic field exists, that it affects other organisms around us, and that our field is affected by our mood and mind frame? There are many studies showing otherwise.
Artificial as in inorganic? I'm not sure what you're saying there. Even if we create it, that doesn't make it less real
What is spirituality? Psychology began as a form of spirituality. It was originally the study of the soul. There are probably 7 billion different definitions of what spirituality means, and to me, all have validity. For me it is the acknowledgement of the Spirit, of energies and forces which are yet immeasurable with our current tools, it is to explore different perspectives, introspection, and the experience and fearless exploration of the Great Mystery, without judgement.
You said, "spirituality is about asking questions, not presuming to know answers"...
Are you not presuming to know the answers by deeming my version of spirituality as silly?
How did you arrive at the conclusion that spirituality was entirely about looking inward? IMHO, sometimes looking outward is a great and clear mirror. Of course that stems from my belief that the way we look at things changes what we look at. I know that many people say that the double-slit experiment is not applicable to humans, yet aren't we essentially a huge collection of atoms? I suppose what I'm saying is that looking outward as a part of looking inward only applies if the Observer has an influence on the Observed. Either way, I respect your views, and I love questions. I have no answers.

That energy does exist. We can not manipulate it. Everything we experience is not artificial figments of our imagination. It's reality. Reality is of our own perception and understandings, but it is still reality. Even if your reality were to come to an abrupt end, reality would still exist for the rest of us the same it always had. We can measure the mass of black holes.

Spirituality is having a personal connection with God, nature, animals, other people, and yourself. Spirituality does exist, but like you said there are about 7 billion different variations of it. It is what makes each and everyone of us, it's something out of our control. So if you want to sing to your mushrooms, go ahead, that's who you are and that's where your faith lies.
