When you are more excited about some plastic, agar, tubs, metal lids, mason jar pour lids or the like arriving in the mail than holiday presents.

for sure! Calling myself a mycologist is a bit of a stretch of the word. I use my microscope for fun and know little on a grand scheme of things.

Why not both? I may grow a few cubes here n there but I also hunt wild edibles, medicinals and actives so I have a decent understanding of their ecology and can identify mushrooms even relatively experienced foragers wouldnt attempt, i have wild genetics that Iβve run under controlled conditions, and I have a microscope for looking at spores and mycelium(or sometimes other microorganisms). You wanna talk about genetic differences in subauginerescens azurescens cyanescens and allenii and I can hold my own. (1 base pair difference between subs and azzies, 5 between cyans and allenii) macro and microscopic as well as distribution are enough to differentiate azzies and subs but anyone who tries to tell you allenii are basically same as cyans is talking out of there ass.0
I mean :
If all youβre doing is squirting ms into grains and fruiting it or buying lc or premade blocks of gourmets and doing the same then yeah, youβre just a grower, but even just doing agar work cloning and testing for yield and potency adds enough of a level of βstudyβ to consider it mycology IMO, which simply put means study of mushrooms.. Sure weβre mostly amateurs and fixated on a few certain species but we study mushrooms nonetheless.
We def need more terms to differentiate, growing plants is horticulture but studying them is botany, which is a branch of biology, same as mycology, I like fungiculturalist but if youβre just growing bulk its honesty more like farming than anything.

That was kind of my point to the meme in terms of, 'you might be...' - I often find myself questioning the line. Wasn't trying poke at something.
Horticulturists, too, practice plenty of botany.
I guess that's why I didn't use the term farmer, either.
Botanists might know the precise physiological processes and nutritional requirements of a plethora of plants, but are likely not able to grow them nearly as well as a farmer. Horticulturists, meanwhile, seem to be versed in both worlds.
We are the versed. The ones in lab coats with dirt(coir) under our fingernails.

No worries, My comment wasnβt directly at you I got the meme it was started a response to randalf and ended up kinda spitballing with the topic a little, Iβve been smoking dabs all night and I can get a little pedantic at times. The line is a blurry one for sure.
Farmers are agriculturalists, they grow fields, not plants lol, wonder what the fungal equivalent for a field? Toticulturalist? Someone who grows totes lol.
You might be a mycologist if.. you canβt quite figure out whether youβre a mycologist, mushroom cultivator, fungiculturalist, a degenerate who loves drugs, a mad scientist or maybe some kind of wizard?!?? Sheeeit, maybe all of the above..

When you have pre-planned lies about the βpreservesβ youβre canning in the pc when someone stops in unexpectedly. Note- make sure itβs nothing they are going to ask if they can have one of. βYup, just canning some moose tongue!β

... you realize thereβs cubensis growing in your vacuum cleaner and then get depressed cause the RH in the vacuum looks better than your shoebox grow.
