I doubt there ever was one or ever will be one.

I just don't see it being practical. I don't think there would be a high profit margin and shrooms lose their potency somewhat quickly compared to other drugs.

Terence McKenna :grin:

Seriously, I saw a video of his house on the Big Island, HI.  It was very, very nice.  And he made it all off his grower's guide, his dealing (he used to grow ~70 lbs. a month or something), and his lectures.

“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

In college towns they sell almost as well as weed... For a while at least. Until everyone gets sick of tripping.

Blow makes the most money because people can do hundreds of dollars worth in a night.  You ever try to burn a thousand bucks on weed in a night?  Fifty dollars into it you're unconscious... :lol: Shrooms? LOL

Nah, you can count on consistent customers for over a month. A huge spike in the first week or 2 because everyone is trying to pass on small amounts to friends and what-not.

Then the regular customers prove themselves and you find yourself selling 10 pounds for the same profit as you made from 2 pounds...

Thats when things get weird and you decide to bail.... :lol:

Coke is on the radar big time everywhere. Besides, the type of clientèle it brings is way less than desirable and a lot harder to deal with. Can you imagine the amount of phone calls a coke dealer would get every night? In the afternoon everyone is looking to get their first bag, every evening people are looking at scoring another... By 3 or 4am people are ready to sell their grandmothers wheelchair to keep from crashing. And some of them will try to get a hold of you any way they can.

Mushrooms attract a much lower key individual. A hell of a lot lower stress than even cannabis.

Aye, I definitely here ya about coke. A few people going through a quarter ounces and half ounces in a night is not a stretch from reality. But it seems that with coke, you can greatly screw people. Because to my knowledge, mush is mush, you cant add/cut it with anything lol. You throw down on a ounce of coke, drop 10gs of cut in it. Now you got 38grams to sell instead of 28gs, and as long as its decent shit, you can make a killing. As long as your willing to go to jail when the cops bust you =)

I'll believe this.

But also, the problem with selling mushrooms is that if you sell enough to make a living off of it, you have to remove yourself at least one step from the end users.

So in this case, you have to sell at a bulk price, which means you make more money each sale, but less each gram. But its more difficult to grow larger batches. Then your house becomes a mushroom factory, with verm, perlite, cleaning supplies and rye grain bags all over the place.

After this it becomes harder and harder to hide your identity, your name spreads and you get phone calls from drunk college kids at 3 am. Not to mention if you sell too much, the wrong crowd will take notice. Then if you get a massive contamination in the grow house, thats the end of that for a few weeks. Then you get a big drop in sales and the cycle begins anew.

There are methods of making sure the shrooms stay good for a long time, in which case you could store lots for when crops go bad.

A foaf used to make her shrooms into 1g pills.

But as people have already said heroin is a way bigger seller than mushrooms ever will be. Its addictive and people tend to come back a couple a times a day.

I don't like smack and crack though - i like drugs expand the mind not reduce it.

i don't know what you guys are talking about. where i'm from mushrooms sell out instantly, always (by instantly i mean whenever i've heard of someone having any quanitity, it would be gone in a month)

my favorite memory is i went to a small house party and i brought some with me, i asked around when i first got there and no one wanted any... so i was a little dissappointed and about after an hour someone was like "hey do you have any of those mushrooms?" and then he got another 8th for his friend, then 3 more of his friends came and got some for them and their friends, then i guess the other people felt left out.

long story short there were about 30 kids tripping pretty hard in this tiny house. we started wandering around the neihborhood at 3 in the morning. me and some other people went to this graveyard and we found 2 14 year old wigger kids drinking beer and smoking cigs. somehow astrology came up and my friend channeled advice from angels to these little kids and totally had them interested. he ended up talking to them for over an hour says shit like "yeah they're telling me you're having difficulties with your relationship with women, you need to learn to respect them more" and the kid would say "yeah i have trouble with my mom and my sister, maybe i don't treat them good" and shit like that. it was awesome, he completely changed their lives.
