I'd have to say shrooms are much less of a legal risk overall. While marijuna is one of the top priorities in our silly war on drugs, mushrooms barely ring a bell with most people, because they just don't receive as much attention from the feds. You would really have to cause some commotion to get busted growing shrooms. Growing herb seems like a high risk hobby 24/7.

I can't tell you about the legal ramifications, check norml.org for your states stance on pot growing. But I have personally grown both and I must say that pot is much more risky to grow than mushrooms.

Legally, in some states you'd be more fucked if you got caught with mushrooms, because marijuana is decriminalized. In California, I may be wrong but I think the penalty for cultivation is 16 months, while I would bet mushrooms are more.

However, if you mean getting caught, which you don't since you said legally, marijuana's more risky, as it can take quite a bit of electricity (though not as significant for small personal grows) and also has a very distinct smell.

In Texas growing shrooms can get you 5 to 90 years. Thats what I'm looking at right now.

Either one, it's still production of a schedule 1 substance, and will fall under the same sentencing guidelines by weight.
In most states, that is, i can't say for yours.

Marijuana growing is much more high profile in terms of markers tho. (scent, heat, energy use, infrastructure, etc)

But legally they're the same (check state laws for marijuana....possession might be a lesser offense in some states, but production is still a felony)

Dude, the possible sentences are all based around the weight seized, and the calculated weight....in the case of growing plants, they count the soil. In the case of mushrooms, they'd probably count the weight of the substrate (if caught during the grow phase)

THEY'RE BOTH SCHEDULE ONE in nearly ALL states. Manufacture/production/cultivation is a FELONY regardless of the amount.
They won't be lenient. They're both the same thing. Same risk.

If you were growing both at the same time, you'd face two manufacturing charges.

well in illinois

weed is less of a problem growing wise, where shrooms will get you ass in jail, at elast for a few days before you get 2 years of parole....

but youre less likely to get busted growing shrooms, assuming you dont tell anyone, and oh yeah, dont tell anyone... oh and what was that other rule... oh yeah dont tell anyone.

If you grow marijuana indoors conceal the light and make a carbon filter to get rid of the smell.

decriminalization has absolutely nothing to do with cultivation... of either...

state penalties vary for cultivation but have nothing to do with whether pot is decriminalized or not.

Well instead of running from the US we could organize like the pilgrims did originally in England, and leave from religious prosecution. But if you are like I, you do not seek to leave this country. The only true way to fight this war would be to organize, which many of us have done via means of lobbying groups but of course more could be done.

Our country was founded on, "give me liberty or give me death." I feel the same way about my life. Honestly give me liberty or you might as well just kill me. Within the reason of rationality of following even the 10 commandments dictated by god, doing drugs is not seen as wrong.

You know what drug users remind me off? Homosexual people and women. Just as women where treated like crap, beaten and even burned in the historic witch trials they now have some freedom. The gays have the saddest story of all, many for thousands of years killed themselves as the only escape from reality. Honestly I don't feel any different then them. I can't live the way I feel is right, even though I don't hurt anyone else. It is like being a gay man not being able to be with other men. I have a fundamental right as a human being to do what I want with my life and NOBODY should have power against my will. If I want to paint my face blue that should be ok. If I want to smoke marijuana in my home that should be ok. If I want to smoke crack in my home that should be ok. So if I steal a car to pay for my crack ok that is illegal but look a separation occurs here ok. What is wrong with doing drugs in your own home? What is wrong with being a responsible adult?

If I must submit my personal values that I feel are right then what life do I have to live? Why do I have to hide my true feelings? I feel like Aristotle who spoke his views and was murdered for his views of the outside. The very words this country where founded on are violated. The US is a heavily taxed, regulated nightmare compared to what it was originally intended. The founding fathers would puke and start a new country if they saw the state of the USA now. How is this liberty when such a fundamental and important part of peoples lives are violated. Are not religious beliefs protected by the state and federal government? Well my religion is doing drugs. I find them necessary for my life. I can't live without them. I seek drugs for spiritual guidance, I see drugs to pacific my soul. So how is the drug war able to be fought on these grounds? Of course everything in this country is backwards, from the Health Care system with heavy bureaucratic costs placing the burden on the patient who must incur unnecessary costs.

I am tired of USA, I am tired of my human rights violated. I am tired of being bullied and having to hide like a homosexual man of the 1800's for fear of being murdered. Yet I might as well die, for if I cannot live my life then what is my life worth. Take my soul, take my life because nothing is left afterwords.

I thought that was only if you were mushroom hunting, and had a damn good excuse as to why you had the psychoactives instead of edibles?
