A.k.a said: I’d buy a shitty van before renting a place I think.
I would say you can knock out a couple years worth of doses in one tub and then switch to growing gourmets but I know it’s just not the same. When I first started lurking here I couldn’t believe when people said they just threw out a few pounds of mushrooms but now I’m getting to that point lol.
Yet I still keep going.
A.K.A. I have read so many of your posts. There have been times my wife has completely trashed my subs but they were always right after the first flush. The most dried she ever flushed at once was 12oz because I had it stashed in a few places around the house. She has no idea what this does to my self esteem. They are like my babies A.K.A. Like children to me. And she still has yet to see this from my perspective. Now, when this happens, I dont lose my shit. I play it cool and just tell myself shes right, I need to think about the kids. But then she took it too far and pitched all my prints! That messed me up for weeks. I still think shes a monster for that one

This sounds a lot more complicated than just shrooms...
I get that many people feel that shrooms really help their depression and other mental issues. However they are not for everyone. And not everyone wants to take drugs (or certain kinds of them) to self-medicate. Self-medication comes with its own risks and if your wife has no desire to do so then I'd respect her wishes. It is up to her how she approaches her depression.
If she has been flushing your shrooms and destroying your prints, I'm not holding out much hope for compromise here. At best I'd be trying to convince her that growing oysters and other edibles is totally legal, you can grow food for you family and maybe even develop a gourment mushroom business one day, or teach classes on the subject.
All my cult stuff fits on one hidden shelf and I do cult work when I'm alone in the house and make sure it's all tucked away afterwards. I grow very small-scale. My husband is aware of this, but generally he wants to know as little about it as possible. If he asked me seriously to not grow magic mushrooms, I would not grow them, and hope to re-evaluate the situation when the kids have left home. It would be an awful blow, but there's other hobbies. Like with addiction, there can be things we really really want to do, but it's in our better interests to resist the temptation. We'd all love to grow what the big-producers on here do, but many of us have more limits on what we can reasonably do in our own situations.
I'd be very pissed off if my husband secretly rented property for doing illegal hobbies I expressly forbade. That's your family's money you'd be spending on that and is much more risky than a few jars on a shelf.
Lying and going behind your spouse's back is a recipe for divorce and being dubbed in to the authorities by an enraged wife. Defy her at your peril! I can understand your being upset when she's trashed shrooms but she has also totally reasonable concerns, because unfortunately shrooms are classified as very fucking illegal in many countries and it is just not worth going to prison for years especially if you have children. If you grow a significant amount, you could get done for supply even if that's not what you're doing. It's not worth your children's family unit falling apart over shrooms. Does your family rely on your income? What will happen to them if you go to prison? Always put your children first, which you know obviously. Your aim should be to replicate the Great Father not the estranged father.
Maybe your wife is also being a bit unreasonable, by not allowing you to grow edibles and such. I'd say that's not really up to her, you're an adult and can participate in legal hobbies so long as you otherwise put the effort in in regards to your marriage and family. Going by your signature, I'd perhaps explain to her that legal mush cult can be one of the methods of directing your "drive" in a way that keeps the demons of addiction and morbido at bay. Firstly that should come from family and faith, but wholesome enjoyable hobbies can add to that.

Not trying to sound like a dick, but she seems potentially quite problematic...you shouldn't have to convince her why you love mushrooms after the fact. The anti-depressants and custody threats gave me chills.
Put a lock on the door so she has plausible deniability?
I don't know man, that's a predicament...

Not to mention I started growing the same year we met. She knew what she was signing up for. I guess having children really does change everything about a woman...
I think she hates the lack of control. I have basically taught her everything I know, every step of the way.
Has me at a loss for words

please forgive me for bumping old threads. DO NOT WORK WITH "FRIENDS" FOR ANY REASON doing so will make your hobby exponentially more risky.

FFS buy a safe and stash the goodies in there. Make sure only you have the secret code or key. When that fails, I can only imagine to break up/divorce with her. Set password on your phone, computer and all other electronic devices.
because of the children I assume no alcohol and cleaning products are stored inside the house? dangerous shit for kids she should know right?!
