I'm an avid pot-smoker\stoner\hippy. I've tried Shrooms once before but unfortunately didn't trip. A friend of mine is currently ordering spores off of a website and plans to grow his own. He's never done it before but, he is pretty confinite he knows what he's doing; He has done a lot of research here at the Shroomery. So, what I'm asking is it safe? If he fucks something up somewhere am i going to die or something?

its very unlikely that you will obtain negative effects based on his cultivation techniques. it's much more likely that if in fact he does have poor cultivation techniques he won't be able to produce mushrooms in the first place
any negative effects you might have will be more related to your personal traits rather than cultivation technique. but the best thing to do in your situation is research yourself to identify the types of potentially unsafe mushrooms such as mushrooms that are not an edible species

As a rule of thumb I'd say to throw out anything that doesn't look like a mushroom or plane white mycelium .
No, but seriously, people who don't really know what they're dealing with should take the safe path and throw out everything that was confirmed as mold.
Posting pictures of what you think is mold would be advised. I know that many newbies tend to keep their achievements to consume them, which can end in unpleasant results.
When you think something's wrong, just post some pics of it and the guys in here will tell you if it's "safe" or not.
The problem about molds is, that, even if they aren't really dangerous they can cause bad trips, because of the psychological aspect.
When you're not REALLY sure if they're good or not, you probably start to panic, when you feel weird etc.
So better let your mushies be looked at, if you're unsure.
Even more important than this is to READ READ READ! Your should as much as you can about the whole topic to get a grip.

Trich doesn't kill, but it sure pisses ya off...
That being said, you can't fuck up shrooms like you could fuck up other chemical shit...to the point that it will kill you.

you cant get sick or die off anything if he does anything wrong. the most thatll happen is shrooms not growing at all.
just tell your friend to practice his procedure and stay sterile.
