5 busted, 44 pounds of psychedelic mushrooms seized in Shelby County, AL drug raid
    #23536084 - 08/12/16 08:33 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

total b.s. on the weights (unless they're not shown in photos).  They probably weighed the mason jars and mycelium.

Quote:

Five people were arrested and nearly 44 pounds of psychedelic mushroom were confiscated during a drug bust in Shelby County.

The Shelby County Drug Enforcement Task Force on Thursday carried out a search warrant in the 200 block of Fran Drive in Alabaster. In addition to the mushrooms, lawmen seized more than 4 pounds of high-grade marijuana, multiple guns and more than $25,000 in cash.

Task force commander Lt. Clay Hammac said the mushrooms contained Psilocybin. Inside the home was and elaborate lab used to harvest the psychedelic mushrooms and prepare them for sale.

Those charged with trafficking marijuana and possession of a controlled substance are: James Michael Hipp, 31, Behn M. Wartenburg, 36, Thomas William Anderson, 22, Walter Clarence Stewart, 28 and
Gabrielle Elyce Gunn, 20.

"We have seen an increase in the possession and use of psychedelic mushrooms among our middle school and high school students,'' Hammac said. "I am relieved that this operation has been shut down, and lives have been potentially saved from the possible fatal effects of Psilocybin."

Hammac said the investigators learned that the high-grade marijuana seized was bought by the accused drug dealers from Colorado, California, and Oregon. "Regardless of the popular public opinion of marijuana, it is illegal – plain and simple,'' Hammac said. "As for the argument of medical value, it's not relevant in this criminal case. I can confirm that the young adults buying from these armed drug dealers were not attempting to treat an illness; they simply wanted to get high."

:facepalm:

Even if the spawn shown was expanded and then spawned it still wouldn't be enough to grow 44 pounds.

Wonder where they got this new fatal strain of Psilocybin from. Must be some potent shrooms.

Shrooms grow wild throughout Alabama. Great job making the kids safer by taking the fatal psilocybin and herb away. Give them some moonshine and chew.

each quart jar to a 96-128qt. tub could produce close to if not above 44lbs, assuming they were using manure.

there's about 20 jars there.  each of those jars, spawned to a large monotub could put out 1.5-3lbs.  44lbs would be achievable.  i speak from past experience

He means if one person ate all the hypothetical 44 pounds at once, of course.

Any idea how they got caught up to begin with? Probably from selling to middle schoolers and high schoolers I'm guessing :lol:

Yeah, the weight is a total fabrication.  Look carefully at the photo of the bin.  There's a curved piece of white cardboard that props up the contents making it look much more full. 

That's a lot of cash, though!  The folks arrested are fucked.  :sad:

Also, that Mountain Dew in the background is more fatal than any of the substances on that table.

:picdidnthappen:

3 pounds from a mono only containing 1 quart spawn, and assuming 25 quarts sub (to make up for the lack of grains and keep depth reasonable) is not possible. Would be a real stretch to even complete the run without stalling out. But even then you would be looking at around 400% BE to pull the yield you say you can. Commercial growers are hard pressed to produce that and I guarantee they use more than a 1:25 spawn ratio. Hell even shiitake needs more supplimentation than that.

Yeah, best ive ever done off of a 5" manure substrate was 1 pound dry, about ten or so wet, four flushes before it contaminated.  Thought that was pretty good, wish I still had my isolated lc from that.

There is a reason we use a spawn ratio of at least 1:4 in the hobby. Agaricus producers can get away with 1:10 but that's with 1 in a 1000 isolates that are commercially sourced. 1:25 spawn ratio? No. Not with cubes.

Im saying people shouldn't distribute a non-recreational substance for profit like mushrooms especially since they are gifted by mother nature anyway. Greed has a way of coming back on ya sometimes. :shrug:
