Cultivating actives while living with your parents

i grow actives in my parents' house and sell them. i was telling my mother that they were king oysters, but she got really suspicious after a period of time. i noticed she was looking more sad and dead each day. today, i was going out to move the trash but she wanted to have a little talk.
- hey x, can we have a talk for a minute? + sure mom.
i could tell from her face that she was very upset and soulless but didn't know why.
- these mushrooms you're growing, are you sure they are not magic mushrooms? + no they are not. - yesterday i spoke to m...
i felt like i was going to have a heart attack when i heard that. m is my cousin who's a police officer, he is 10 years older than me.
- i said that my friend's son is growing magic mushrooms in their house (that's me she's talking about ofc not a "friend's son") and what could happen to them. he told me that the police is probably tracking the kid, pose as a customer and bait him so that they can catch him. if he gets caught he'll go to jail xx years, his parents are going to jail xx years etc. + oh, well i don't grow magic mushrooms? - son, if what you're growing are magic mushrooms please tell me. i don't want to go to jail, neither you. i can go ahead and throw them into the trash safely. + they are not magic, mom. - okay, i'm relaxed now. but son please, quit while the going is good if it's the case.
i go to my room, think about what just happened and what can happen in the future. i imagined this old lady crying while i was in handcuffs. i didn't want this to happen, but the money in this business could save me and my family, and it can also help me therapeutical. i was robbed and got my phone stolen (the robber was never caught) before starting cultivating and it created a feeling of revenge inside me. if i quit now, i would lose all my connections with the people who buy from me. also, i have a package to ship containing a grain jar and a monotub waiting to be harvested and sold.
i really don't know what to do.

It's only a matter of time before you and your family go to jail. Word has gotten out that you grow mushrooms. What's difficult about that for you to understand?

You're implicating your parents in your illegal growing operation against their will and knowledge. Not cool. And who refers to their own mother as "this old lady"??? You seem very young and immature and need to grow up. No disrespect.
Anytime you make money illegally it catches up to you. Just my own experience. If you have to break the law to make money, youre not really making money. Despite what others may think, with all the scheming, risk, paranoia, and effort you put into trying to juke the police you may as well do something legitimate.

i'm a strong libertarian who believes that every psychedelic substance should be accessible by the public. i do think of the risk of every action that i'm doing, i referred to her as "this old lady" because i could see the misery in her face when talking about this topic, not because i don't like her. i didn't even know about how these substances could cure many psychological diseases until a few months ago. i've always seen them as poison because of the media, but now i'm producing and selling them.

i don't really think this is the case. if you get caught, then it was meant to happen and you had bad OPSEC. governments define what's illegal or not.

Apparently mushrooms havent worked well for you because youre lying and deceiving your parents, who sound like good people. Part of you must subconsciously know what youre doing is wrong, otherwise you wouldnt feel the need to be dishonest about it. Youre also infringing upon their liberties to not have an illegal mushroom grow going on in their house against their will.
You've compromised yourself by breaking the #1 commandment of mushroom cultivation. Nobody is supposed to know about it but you. IE you dont involve others and you dont tell people in an effort to get some type of clout.
If you get caught now it wont be because it was meant to happen. It will be because you made bad decisions and ignored good, sound advice.

Nothing wrong with living with your parents no matter your age. Especially these days. In many cultures people never leave their parents. They realize that theyre stronger together. Its mostly the west that indoctrinates people into feeling they must split up the family unit.

i just microdose once in a while and sell off the rest. mushrooms don't make you an honest person. i understand the risk i put on my parents but i believe i minimize it with my methods. but what you're saying is right, i'm infringing upon their liberties. that's why i'm trying to think about the right decision. what makes me wanna continue is; the market is small where i live, and spores are so hard to obtain. to give you an idea, i paid 60$ to get mine. although i covered the spore cost, something inside me still wants to continue and go bigger. but now, i think i'll make my last harvest, discard all my equipment, take a spore print and use it after a year.
i've never told i'm cultivating to get some type of clout. that maybe the stupidest thing a cultivator can do. i keep my IRL identity and illegal identity separate while trying not to mix them. i had to tell them i was cultivating "something" because i'm using the pressure cooker all the time (no excuses for that ).
but yes, i know the risk and i know that freedom is what's important anyway.

i'm over the legal limit but i have an exam to study for next year to get into college. anon #3 called me immature and i kinda accept that. i'm still at the beginning of the road and i don't want to fck up the rest.
also, i don't understand what's wrong with living with your parents? if you think that it's vile, i have a great social life and i was never called out because of it.

I never criticized you for living with your parents. I never said it was wrong. It was just a simple question. I have no idea what made you think that I considered it vile. Anyway, the fact that someone found out you grow mushrooms (your mom) and that she told someone (even if she said it was one of your friends) would be worrysome. It takes very little indirect information to find out who is doing something illegal. But you do you.

what you said made me even think more . i once told one of my aunts that i was going to grow mushrooms (oysters), and now my mom calls my cousin which is a police officer and asks about the legal consequences of growing magic mushrooms (for a friend ). it all makes sense now.
i'm going to discard my grow operation after harvest, but i'll keep the spores for the right time.

1. use the money you're making to rent a studio apartment
2. grow and sell as much as you want, mom is safe
it's not rocket surgery. lying to her face, making her anxious, and putting her freedom/home on the line for pocket change are all massive dick moves.

The whole thing sounds depressing to me.
How can you disrespect your mom like this? It ain't even about legality, it's about respect. Bet.
How you think it feels to be her in this?

Mannn... I get it. Shrooms are great. I have an entire grow lab in my house. My wife, two friends that grow, and the Shroomery are the only ones in the know. My wife doesn't take shrooms but is fine with me doing it. I don't sell them either. Your mom isn't dumb. She knows EXACTLY what you're doing. Me personally, I think these things should be legal and you and your mom shouldn't have to worry about this. But that's not the reality of today's world. These things ARE illegal and the consequences for selling them can be pretty severe. Your mom likely wouldn't face the same legal consequences as you but she very well could if she knows, and she DOES, and does nothing about it. You have taken advantage of your mom's love for you and made her an accomplice in a CRIME. Not only that, but for many people, especially older people, they may be worried about the social implications with their friends and peers. I'd imagine that's why she's stressed out and worried.
If I knew my kid was lying to me, growing and selling shrooms out of my house, I'd be incredibly pissed off. You'd be out!
You can hardly give these things away. I'm surprised you've found a market to sell them. My advice to you, would be to cease and desist and never again in your entire life, sell them! In the eyes of the law, you're a drug dealer. Same as somebody selling meth. Unless at some point it becomes legal to do so, stop selling these things. There are plenty of ways to make money and support your family if need be. This is not the way.
My advice to you, would be to move out on your own and grow these for yourself and MAYBE friends you trust. Keep a low profile. Everybody that knows me, thinks of me as a law abiding citizen who has his shit together. I'm a professional in my work life and this is the only thing I do that is not legal. But shrooms have helped me immensely so I do it for myself. This should be a hobby. Never EVER a way for you to make a living. All of that college prep you're doing is going to be undone when you get caught selling shrooms and are now a felon. Don't screw up your life for this and stop doing this to your mom. I'd never in my life even dream of doing something like this to my parents.

#8 you sound like a real douchy newb that thinks he knows everything there is to know, I wouldn't be surprised if your buying grow kits or growing using the "uncle Ben's" tek in your "entire grow lab" (total newb give away phrase btw)...

Growing illegal mushrooms and selling them has helped a lot of people make ends meet, nothing wrong with it morally, you work and get paid for your work, the only thing wrong with the scenario is that it's illegal, therefore carries a high risk factor that grower gets paid for.
Also many growers who produce legal mushrooms got their start by growing cubes.
You can pretend to be whatever in this corner of the web, but I seriously doubt you have very much experience growing mushrooms, or dealing with teenagers who want to get rich quick growing and selling shrooms, because if you did you would be telling this kid how much work it is to get a massive harvest going that would bring in the kind of cheddar you need to support yourself in the real world.
Also the fact that you can't find anyone to give your shrooms away to kind of sounds like your a total square, but I get it, shrooms are great...👍
#1, grow the fuck out of mushrooms and sell the shit out of them if you want, just don't do it at mom's house without telling her and getting her approval, and also giving her a nice percentage of the take, because doing what you're doing the way your doing it won't likely end well.

#8 sounded mature, sensible and wise to me. Maybe they're a grown up with responsibilities and experience of the world? Any thoughts as to why their well reasoned opinion triggered you so badly that you had to resort to insults?
#1. I bet your mum knows how to use Google. She absolutely knows that you're growing shrooms. Think how much it must hurt that you can so easily lie to her face.

That is absolutely the most idiotic advice you could give to someone. Especially a young person. It sounds like the OP is still in high school. You’re advising them to go out and sell something that the government classifies as a schedule 1 drug. Get caught selling it and it will carry a lifetime of consequences with it. I’m not a newb either. I’m a middle aged man with responsibilities and a lot of life experience under my belt. If you think that this guy can grow enough shrooms in his closet at his mom’s house to make any reasonable amount of money, maybe you’re the dumb newb. Stop giving young people stupid advice.
#1, don’t listen to this idiot. You can ruin your life following stupid shit advice like this. Don’t do it. Forget about college if you get caught selling drugs. Places that hire people into jobs that require college degrees don’t hire convicted felons. That’s a fact. What you are doing is absolutely NOT worth the risk. If that makes you a square as this ding dong says, so be it. Shrooms are great. They shouldn’t be illegal in my opinion. But they are. That’s the reality. I doubt the cops will care much about your hobby grow. But they will definitely care when you are caught selling them. It just takes one idiot getting caught with shrooms by his mom and ratting you out. Not worth it.
