Anyone know where the majority of black market shrooms actually come from?

While people I have known over the years, whether briefly or otherwise, many are generally able to buy shrooms, although I never had such luck (dats ok, I found another, better way to get them, so to speak he he) But I imagine these come from suitably large grow ops much the time as people (like my sis) buy in bulk amounts or trip with friends. where is all of this coming from? I almost never hear of a mushroom op being busted, only one was big and the other was like 40-50 mushrooms (a personal op). I imagine theres a lot of little personal ops here and there but you gotta know "that guy" to get it. are there massive shroom labs that rarely seem to get busted or something? anyone seen one (like the time i saw a huge op, that only got huger after i left. The people involved made enough money on what they just shipped out that what they had left, the penalties literally made it worth it)

I don't think there are many major operations. It's mostly just personal ops. That's why you don't get the kind of shortages with shrooms that you do with acid.

First rule of growing is don't speak of it and keep it on the d\l. I would assume if there are large grows going on there is about one person that knows in detail what's up with said grow. Otherwise I think there are just a ton of little grows going on.

I would guess that most mushrooms come from ops where pounds are produced at a time. I doubt that it is like LSD or cocaine or other drug productions, where a handful of people are responsible for the majority of what you find on the street.

I imagine its mostly small personal ops, but it wouldn't be hard to put out a few pounds of mushrooms at a time, even out of an apartment.

That makes sense. A simple 2 bedroom apartment could house a person who knows how to make the dwugs, and yeah, it really is easy to get a pound or 8 if you really try. I figured it was something on the line of above personal, but nothing real extravagant. I remember almost getting annoyed by how many where growing and how fast they where needing to be picked.

a couple folks in a cow pasture on a florida summer night can collect well over 10lbs. grows are for close circles and one offs and during off-peak season. the "black market" is supplied by mother nature.

I think this is true a lot of times, that's why shrooms only come around once in a while.

Really? That's pretty interesting.
I guess you could look at those any of you buy and look for specks of gold or grass or other giveaways on where they came from.

well, there's always the cultivated outdoor bed to provide both clues.
bug eaten spots suggest outdoors as well.
the field collected mush is typically very bruised, crushed, and varies wildly in size. for obvious reasons.
home grown is typically uniform in size and relatively unbruised. growers give a damn. pickers are just making a mad dash to throw as many in the sack as fast as possible.
props to both classes, tho.
strange fact: I am listening to Pinball Wizard this very moment.

honestly, 10 pound hauls are not that common at all, especially in florida. and that is something that only happens maybe 2-3-4 weeks out of the season in florida and most people dont know how to key in on that sweet spot timing and finding which field is producing best. usually if a person or a group picks a fresh pound in one outting consider them very lucky. people in texas find twice as many cubes than in florida for some reason. plus the potency of wild cubes are usually 2-3-4 times less potent once dried than the ones people cultivate themselves. dont get me wrong, 95% of the people you sell shrooms to wont know if they were wild or cultivated, and they arent experienced enough to notice a potency difference. nice big caps are a good selling point as far as wild cubes go, wild caps on average are much larger than the ones you can grow indoors. florida is perfect for cultivating outdoors during shroom season, you can really grow a whole lot just in one backyard if you know what your doing and it is many times easier than cultivating indoors. indoor setups cost more and require more upkeep and require a good hiding spot. if a cop was in your house searching through shit he would find a decent sized operation pretty easily, but theyre not going to see anything hiding underneath your bushes throughout your whole backyard.

It is like picking money off the ground, but hes right, less potent being grown outdoors but more plentiful. I have seen some major hauls on these pages. I am talking major. I wish I could just see how much I have grown all in one pile, it would be quite large, and thats just a really minor closet shroom lab. yummy yummy dwugs! wheres the people with the picture of the cow that says "heres my drug dealer" we need that picture on this thread.

They come from the shroomfields in the beautiful country of Shroom.
There are fields of Cubensis as far as the eye can see. Growing pure, not between the grass, but a meadow of just shrooms. Like on a cake.

i think people get it from their friends that grow. before i took matters into my own hands, i only came across mushrooms twice.
once was 4 grams of tiny indoor fruits. the second time was a guy who sold his homegrown. he didnt admit it, but it was pretty obvious. paying him 20 bucks for a chocolate that had less than a gram in it sucked. i didnt know it was so little until i learned through my own experiments what 1.5 can really do to you.

if you are going to grow big, you should grow weed instead of mushrooms. more valuable, better quantities, less risk of getting ratted out by somebody who had a bad trip, less jail time, etc.
then again, i did know a kid that used to get garbage bags full of cubes in california...and those don't grow naturally here.

have to mention that the "big op" i saw was marijuana, not shrooms, i am the only shroom lab I have ever seen, although my sister says she knew a guy as well. I always wonder who is making LSD as well, because its not THAT hard to find, there has to be more people making it than anyone knows about.
turning readily available legal items into illegal items sure is fun, makes me feel like a renegade.
and i dont think its coming from friends who grow. People are actually quite unaware of how easy it is, i sometimes wonder if a few people I know thought i was lying about "getting them out of my closet"

I have never came across a dealer who has sold mushrooms in all my drug taking years over here in the UK.
Does anyone else here in the UK know a dealer that sells shrooms? I think its unheard of over here in my opinion
