Shrooms grown in "toxic" water: will the spores be ok?

Yoo... so theres this small area where some shit leaked into the water supply and gave some kids in the area some shit (various mental disabilities, etc) big ordeal, cleared out, old known news. A farm owner that has land in the area though still feeds his cows the right kinda feed, cause he knows about the kids comin out there, and supposably they are the superdank cause of the altered water. NOW, i donno about all that (i believe its legit, completely, i know the story, and ive seen the farm and its in the area... thats why i donno about it, meaning, i wouldnt do it. lol. fuck toxic shrooms.)
HOWEVER.... do you think taking a specimen from them would be good? Could years of propogating in that altered water somehow dangerously effects the spores DNA (or whatever)? Thanks for any input!

i think a clean culture would be fine but i wouldn't recomend eating something that grows in toxic waste. collect a spore sample and start experimenting with it.

Use bottled water if in doubt. If there's heavy metals in the water, they'll show up in the fruitbodies. The spores would be ok, but the fruits could be dangerous. It sounds like lead poisoning, which is known to cause learning disabilities in children. RR

Well actually it was some weird chemical byproduct... there was a factory that is reacting these 2 things to make a substance, and this strange toxic chemical was relased into the water... they SAY it makes those shrooms super dank, but who knows. Its just the only field i know that produces for sure, and i really want a spore specimen. Imma go for it! :-D

Ok, I understand now-It's an outdoor field. It's fine. The contaminated water will be the well water or ponds in the area. The mushrooms are on the surface, thus they only see rainwater. RR

LOL, nice... that makes sense to me too, lol cuz i said the same thing to my friend who told me about it. And he was like "nuh uh, the cows eat the grass that is grown with the toxic water, and drink the toxic water, so they have toxic shit that the mushrooms grow out of them, THAT my friend, THAT is why they are so good!" (not, of course, because the field owner purposely feeds his cows the right kind of food)
Whateva, imma get my specimen and be done with that shit... scientist like a motherucker...
