One story was that a woman was on LSD and thought her infant was a turkey so she baked it in the oven. Now I look back and think thats hilarious, but at the time I guess it scared me.

I just recently started growing but it started out because they are impossible to buy around here and it's much safer than hunting for them. Then for about an hour I considered selling them, and now it's sort of become a nice little hobby.

I grow because it's fun, and all your efforts are repaid in full at the end. I initially started because mushies were hard to find.

The day I decided to try growing was funny though. I had been looking for shrooms for a while, and my friend was coming from out west with someone who had shrooms.

Ended up he was only selling them in pounds, and that's when I got fed up and thought growing couldn't be much harder than this...

It was much easier. :wink:

Like a lot of people- I started so I could get mushrooms, then found out that it's fun.

The funny part is that I am useless with houseplants.

But when I looked into mycology and it starts off with "You need spore needles and a pressure cooker", it's like "Wow, this is *different*"...

You may end up being better with houseplants because of the experience.

I think it'sbecause plants yield no fruit, and become part of the decor, so I never think of taking care of them.

Whereas with mushies they are like your little babies, so there's no way you'd treat them as badly as I treat a Fern :wink:

I wanted to be self sufficient. I figured if i could brew my own beer, grow my own smoke, and my own head case i would be in a real awesome position.

Coming into this hobby, the required knowledge is fascinating, the trial and error aspect, perseverance, patience..this hobby teaches a lot of positive behaviors.
It's definitely one of those hobbies where if you want to succeed, you HAVE to try, you HAVE to research and educate yourself, and you HAVE to push though barriers, or quit.

I love it, this is GREAT

I mainly grow to treat cluster headaches. Can't complain about the side-effects.

I do it because I'm a boy and one day I was like "damn, girls can't grow shrooms, so it'd be a damn shame if I didn't take advantage of my gender privileges, think of all the cute little girls who wish they could do it!"

(hippie chick is obviously transgendered, if not fully non-girl....)

PM me with any cultivation questions.

I just looked at my profile and realized I had a website at one point in time on geocities, it's not there anymore and I have no idea what I had on it. Anybody remember my website from several years aga? PM if so please.

Yeah, I'm with dzagama. I used a lot of shrooms and lsd when I was younger for fun. I've been suffering from cluster headaches my whole life. People are always like, What's that like a migraine? To that, I say, I wish. Anyway, mushroom therapy works. If I had a consistent supplier of shrooms, I wouldn't grow. But I don't, so I do. It's a miracle-fuckin-drug. Harvard Med School, is doing a study on the whole thing now, but it's a practice that's pretty old. Also shrooms are sometimes (with controversy) used to treat addicts, be it heroin, alcohol, cocain, whatever, and with good results. And, yeah, the side effects are alright with me, my other option is lithium, or some other drug that has a seriously high side effect of cardiac arrest. Shrooms!
