Pretty typical....Men are risk takers...women are not....it's in our DNA... not to say some women don't really enjoy tripping but my experience shows that it's typically guys that are most into this!
You can't really Force this experience on her she has to do it willingly. Mostly you should focus on just getting her to accept the fact that you do them and just enjoy doing your trips and if she chooses to join you then cool

I've had plenty of friends that absolutely did not get the whole psychedelic experience.
To them, LSD and shrooms destroyed lives, made your brain bleed, gave you psychosis, etc. I was never able to sway their opinions.

No. No no no. Being female has nothing to do with enjoying drugs. Sure men take more risks - but this is assuming you see drugs as a risk in the first place. It's about perception and strength of mind. If she doesn't get it now she won't until she learns for herself or she'll just ignore drugs forever. No changing her. There are plenty of women like myself who grow, without the help of a man, and who do so for their own enjoyment. It sounds like that's what you need. (Especially if she's upset over something like growing cannabis...)

I smoke lots of weed. Like to take shrooms, lsd anything trippy really.
Im going to take acid pretty soon. Within the next month or so id say. I just asked her if she wanted to try it. This is how the convo went....
Me: Do you wanna try acid?
Her: What why?
Me: Old mate is getting me some
her: What why?
Me: Because i asked him to...
Her: What isnt that stuff really bad? At school they told it was really bad. And mum always did too because of dad (i think her dad had drug/alcohol problems, we dont talk about her dad much because he dead)
Me: *laughing* Oh god.... Its all lies. Its not bad. Its the stuff hippies take and go on about peace and love etc
her: Why would want to do that?
Me: Because it is good shit! You dont really get it do you...
Her: Well what do you want me to be like? (sarcastically) OH YEA LETS GET REALLY FUCKED UP ALL THE TIME AND GROW LOTS OF WEED AND MUSHROOMS AND DO ALL THE DRUGS.
Me: ummmmmmm.... yes?
She just looked at me with this what the fuck face.
She just does not get it.
No offense man but I don't think you handled that very well. You didn't do a very good job at conveying how absurdly different it is from other drugs. Ask your gf if she wants a mystical experience because that's what LSD is. You can't treat it like other intoxicants. You can't just say to people who have never done psychedelics things like "oh acid is awesome" because they just won't get it. Your gf will probably have this weird attitude until she tries it or looks into it, you can't just be like "haha because it's awesome" or because whatever because that just makes it seem like "another thing". Right now your gf thinks LSD is just another dumb thing just another silly drug for immature people. You have to get through to her in a different way than you're doing right now unfortunately. My gf I have been dating for about 2 1/2 years now too and though she may have a somewhat weird view on psychedelics she still wants to try them because I've explained over and over again how safe, amazing and spiritual they are.
It isn't comparable to drugs or cartoons or dreams the only thing I can think to compare it to is traveling.

And I don't think reiterating how "safe" it is will sway anyone's opinion either because even then they just wont see the point in doing it.
I tell most people because the true nature of life, reality and consciousness cannot be encompassed from the viewpoint of the ego and the only way to dissolve it is through using psychedelic tryptamines like LSD, Mushrooms or DMT.
Tell your gf she'll only be able to get their if she takes a psychedelic tryptamine, meditates for years or takes up sensory deprivation. IMO if you're not meditating or doing yoga or sensory deprivation then you absolutely need to take a psychedelic tryptamine because there's no way you can really "get it" without doing at least one of those things. Human beings need a regular ritual encounter with the forces that dissolve boundaries.

Yea i could have handled it better. I sort of put myself on the spot and i could have said something better. Maybe ill try talking to her about it. But she has 0 interest in anything drug related so i dont think i will et very far any time soon. I will tread lightly.

IDK dude is she your soulmate? If she ain't then maybe reevaluate your priorities. Meaning: Ditch the bitch, no offense.
If she is your soulmate... you need to reevaluate your priorities. Meaning maybe you should choose her over the experience.
I had a significant other much like this once.

I don't mean to piss on your party OP, but your GF isn't the woman for you. Trying to convince her that your drug use is a positive aspect of your life is never going to work, in her mind it's all bad. You're never going to receive her acceptance.
You want your cake and to eat it as well, it doesn't work that way. At a certain point it will either be the drugs or her, I suggest just being independent and stop trying to seek her approval, eventually you will have to move on.

I just explained to my gf all of the positives of mushrooms and explained how these been used as spiritual tools for thousands of years and it's a profound experience.
I even got my gf to do mushrooms after all that she did them three times and had a difficult time and now doesn't see the need to do them. She gets upset when I trip but it's usually only for a little bit. I know what you mean about how her dissaproval can make your head space wrong for tripping it'd happened to me but I just tell my gf I see mushrooms as medicine and not a drug if that makes any sense lol.

My GF has dropped more acid than me and is usually the first with the idea to hook some up. Its kind of cool but in all honestly at the peak we are totally separate in any event and more at one with the "all". So I am not sure why this bothers you so much?
That said pushing anybody into it is a bad idea and asking for trouble.

It's sucks that people stay in long relationships and get married to people they have nothing in common with. My parents were basically associates and had nothing in common, hated, and resented each other when I moved out and they're still together
I've never considered a long term relationship with someone who doesn't at least understand psychedelics.

As others have said your best bet is dropping it for now. Being pushy will just make her more suspicious/ doubtful most likely. However also as has been said showing her some of the many recent positive studies on mushrooms could help change her view. Maybe try explaining their long and amazing history, if she is even a remotely spiritual/ religious person she might be interested in that.
Finding some really beautiful deep trip reports to read with her could help as well. She probably can't even begin to imagine the nature of these experiences so how can you expect her to be interested in partaking in them? I would try to slowly educate her if she is interested at least, if not you only really have 2 options. Move past this issue or break up and try to find a better match 
Goodluck
