is growing shrooms really worth it?
    #3430261 - 11/30/04 10:12 PM (19 years, 3 months ago)

I've been planning to grow some mushies, but i just read some threads that talk about taking shrooms too often, and only taking them every 1-2 months, if I'm consuming them at such a slow rate, wouldn't it be easier to just buy them?

Topics like this always shit me, I mean you practically answered your own question.

But anyway...

The pros to growing your own mushrooms is that you'll gain experience, you'll have your own quality control, you'll save money by not paying street prices, PLUS you wont have to consult with any sleazy drug dealers. In the end, it seems more like a personal choice if you ask me.

People who dislike growing don't tend to do it just for the mushrooms, unless they're doing it to sell or some crap. Its an enjoyable experience. If I couldn't grow these, I'd grow either non-edible ones just for fun, or edibles that I wouldn't eat in the end (doing that anyway)

The spores you can buy and grow on the net (hypotheticly speaking of course) are probably far more potent than most shrooms you buy from a street dealer.

Besides that its fun, when you eat them you have the joy of knowing you created them.

You can give them away to your friends?!

Not taking them more than once a month is a good advice! 2-4months is better IMO.

easier, yes!

but growing is fun and rewarding. after you grow once you'll have enough shrooms for 1-2 years if you trip once in 1-2 months (good thing, better not too often to keep it special). store them crackerdry and airtight and they'll stay potent for years. so growing is cheap too! :wink: :laugh:

It's a great feeling knowing you've created something from nothing. Everyone that's done shrooms before tells me mine are the best they have ever done, so potency is better with homegrown.

haha you come to a shroomery forum, mostly dedicated to cultivation of various plants and you ask if growing is a good idea! Of course it is, the consensus agrees. Go for it, you will have a lot of fun with it as long as you don't freak out and take it too seriously.

There is nothing better in the world than looking at a bag filled with dried mushies YOU grew, not somebody else. Growing anything (tomatoes, oranges) is fun, but if you aren't into the actual hobby that is botany, then I guess growing mushrooms isn't for you.

Plus, checking on your jars is a fun hobby all on its own.

Absolutely right. This is YOUR chance to play God  :tongue: and create life!

Oh, and I swear the trip is just better when they are your own shrooms. It is just so nice to know exactly what was going down at all stages of the mush's development. And eating the fruits of your labor makes it that much more rewarding.
