Water tomato plant with mushroom tea

So I'm going to attempt this and see if anyone here maybe has thought about this.
Now I know this is FAR from the same thing, but when Rose's are watered with food dye they absorb the chemical that changes the color
Sooo...
Having a single tomato plant in a small container and watering with psilocybin-laden water.
When you water tomatoes with nutrients ts you can taste the nutrients if you dont flush them out, or use organic nutrients, so they are able to absorb chemicals.
Not looking for plain "that wont work your stupid" comments, if you say it wont work please explain why it wouldnt. But... psychedelic tomatoes? I think so...

Everything in the soil from microbes to fungi and even just air will degrade the actives. Plants don't absorb useless macromolecules they don't need. You have to cut the roots off of plants/flowers to get them to take up the color. Living plants with intact roots won't take up food coloring to the leaves or flower petals. Living plants with roots will filter it out. This is why all the colored flowers you've ever seen had cut stems

you could cook the tomatoes in mush tea/mushrooms if you're wanting psilly tomaters.
Long time ago me and some friends heated mushrooms in jam to try to mask the taste but just ended up making psilly jam on accident.
good to know about the dye/root thing bodh.

1) It's not our job to explain why it won't work. I will, anyway, but he who posits a novel proposition bears the responsibility for proving the proposition.
2) I've got 100 bucks that says you can't pick my chemical fert tomato from an organic one. I've proven this dozens of times over the years with my tomatoes and hydroponic weed. No-one is tasting ferts in tomatoes or weed; I've proved this in blind tests over a dozen times. People asserting otherwise have a considerable amount of math and science to overcome.
3) [The important part] Plants have highly evolved pathways for carrying nutrient chemicals across the root membrane border. There are specific pathways/mechanisms for nitrogen, potassium, Phosphorus. Psilocybin would have to transit that border efficiently for your desired result to happen. You can make this happen through high osmotic pressure; soaking the soil with massive amounts of psilocybin, to force it across the boundary into the plant, but you would have to use massive amounts of psilocybin, and most would go to waste. You'd throw 1000's of times more psilocybin away than would end up in the tomato.
So conceptually, it -could- be done, but a cup of tea isn't gonna do it.
A more efficient path to a psychedelic tomato would be to do an ethanol extract, and inject the results. Dunno why you'd want to do that, but that's a way.

You watched the Simpsons episode where Homer makes Tomacco tomatoes and thought you might could do it with mushroom tea, huh?

Not sure if it's quite relevant but I've grown cubes in pots with tomatoes. It's not a great way to grow mushrooms but the tomatoes seemed to benefit, they were however, not psychoactive in any way.
