Grow kit

Might sound dumb, but does anyone know where to get a cube grow kit online and have it shipped to Tennessee?
I keep finding legality issues

You don't want a kit trust me. Its a huge gamble and too many variables that can go wrong. They are generally overpriced garbage. If i were you, i would learn some basic teks and do it yourself. Invest the time to learn and you will not only save money and time, but also your sanity lol.
The easiest way to start off is to buy pre-sterilized grains or learn BRF/PK Tek and inoculate with an MS syringe. You can also try popcorn or oat tek. Let it colonize, spawn to bulk substrate like coir/verm and use an unmodified monotub tek. Maybe try smaller tubs or shoe box tek.
Its not the most efficient or best tek but it will get you started better than buying a kit. It'll also costs 50% less or way more than a "kit". You'll also have better control. Its not perfect, but definitely better.
You can get MS syringe for about $10 (you only need 1cc out of 10cc) Pre-sterilized grains 6lbs or buy jars for about $30 66qt monotub for about $15 Coco coir 3 x 650g for about $20 (you'll only need 1 650g brick) Vericulite i dunno say $20 (you wont use all of it) Lamp with 6500k bulb about $15 Spray bottle about $5
Total: approx $115

A spore syringe to pre sterilized grains is about as bad as most kits IMO.

Very true. I am just trying to find some comparison to the kits. Not the best way for sure, but for a novice it might be the way to go?

 I live near ya Cham, I can do it cheaper than $115 Bur def. the kit is so not worth it. Order a couple things online and a shopping list to Walmart and you're set. Then you'll be hooked and buy PC and do it bulk.

Well I have a few cube prints on foil. Idk where to buy a syringe. And I have kids so I'm not trying to have a huge storage container growing " illegals" somewhere in the house lol. And contamination is where I know I'll fail

A few half pint jars and a shoebox and be hidden pretty easily. I'm not an outdoor grower but its starting to get pretty hot here, not saying its not possible. But you would still have to make spawn.

Grow one shoebox then, it's the same size as a kit. No matter how you look at it or go about it you're breaking the law, if you're the sort of person who cares about that.

You can, but the whole idea is to control the variables. It also takes longer and is less predictable due to nature's temp and humidity swings. i dont have any info on outdoor grows but they do exist.

You could learn to identify and just pick wild mushrooms, I'm sure there must be a few around there.

So basically... Miss the spores with sterilized water, squirt it into a mason jar with some kind of sterilized grain. Wait till it's all white and then dump into a shoe box filled with more sterilized grains and cover it up... Right?

Nope. Try reading first,then add spores to agar, agar to grains, grains to coir.
You just happen to be in the right place chalk full of reading materials.

Been picking for years. Actually got arrested for it back in 2017. I'm pretty good at identifying. Just moved away from where anything good grows

Buy syringe and sterile water online or pharmacy and put your tub in the closet. Transfer your print sample to syringe (agar transfer obv ideal). Many teks on this.
*Note: I do not condone illegal activity, please check with you local laws.

That would be the most basic way to do it. You will spawn your colonized grain to a bulk sub like coir (you just need to boil water and add to coir), not add to more grains. Not ideal, but will work in most cases.
