How many years experience do you have?

I'm wondering how many years some of you old folkies have been growing shrooms. I've got a little over 2years but I'm still no 'expert'. Lots of mistakes and successes along the way. I personally HAVE to get good at shroom cultivation because it is the best medicine for my bipolar/panic disorder (no joke!).

3 years, most of that time was not spent growing because the first time I tried, my mom found my fruiting chamber in my closet right when the first pin was about to mature. the 2nd time I stopped because I thought I had HPPD which turned out to be xanax withdrawal.
This time I'd say 3 months at the very least so far. Bulk is much more rewarding in the end

I've been researching on and off for the past two and a half years. However, this past half year I have started experimenting.
I'll say about 6 months for me.

Off and on for the past five years. I believe that when you stop learning something new about this hobby, it's time to find annother one!

5 months... Although I feel like I was ALWAYS meant to do this. While all my friends were growing weed, I couldn't grasp that concept and this was the only thing I ever wanted to learn. I have no bipolar issues, or mental problems, but I belong in deep space. So I will probably always be doing this
