Until What Point is it Legal?

Self-explanatory: until what point is the cultivation of psylocibe mushrooms illegal. The spores are legal, the mushroom itself is illegal. In between those two, until what step is it legal? Spore in substrate? Colonization? Full mycellial growth? Pins? The more acurate the better. 
Surprisingly I am only asking this for curiosity.

Im pretty sure once mycelium forms, actually once you noc your jars up it becomes illegal.

Meaning that as soon as the spores are introduced to a substrate it becomes illegal, even if mycellium hasn't formed?

Pretty much once you put the spores into the jars its illegal...Thats intent to manufacture.
I guess it would be once the mycelium forms it becomes something more extreme.

depends where you live, New Mexico for example, growing for own consumption (limits on that) is not AS illegal as say, Colorado (where I live) and NM is the only state like that, but then there are federal laws.
They could also find enough stuff to show that you intend to do so, but its all case study,
shroom "grow ops" can be a couple of PF tek cakes in some 2-3 liter bottles, for own consumption, or a full room of monotubs,
I imagine if you get charged with intent to distribute and you have 12 monotubs, it is a better case for the prosecuter than a couple of 2 liters that arent even started yet.
I think mushroom grow ops are rarely found, as they dont tend to get huge, and its really rather simple and doesnt smell like anything.

Thats when youd get screwed with the federal shit...If its just for self consumption they probably bust your balls and make it a pain in the ass.

Yea they are usually found in link with something else. Marijuana grow ops tend to reveal other things...Such as shroom ops.

cultivating the spores is the illegal part. You can legally posses spores but once you inoculate into a substrate it is illegal.
Even if they are inoculated but theres no myc growth, its still illegal. they can just send jars or whatever to be tested for spores.

In Florida its Illegal to possess dry Psilocybe Cubensis, but legal to possess wet ones that were picked fresh. Of course you couldn't have a trash bag of them, and be like I didn't know or they were the only ones out in this field.

Keep in the mind that in some states in the US, if caught, the weight of the "medium" counts as part of the weight of the substance.
That is... 20 jars at 10% colonization would be the same as having p. cubensis weighing as much as all the jars combined.

In New-Mexico the state appeals case in 2005 said growing hallucinogenic mushrooms is not banned under New Mexico’s law against manufacturing an illegal drug.
Although psilocybin, the active substance in the mushrooms, is illegal under both state and federal controlled substances laws, growing the funny fungus doesn't qualify as drug manufacture, the court held, citing a 1999 ruling that growing marijuana doesn't qualify as manufacture under the state law.
That law defines manufacture as "the production, preparation, compounding, conversion or processing of a controlled substance or controlled substance analog by extraction from substances of natural origin or independently by means of chemical synthesis or by a combination of extraction and chemical synthesis and includes any packaging or repackaging of the substance or labeling or relabeling of its container."
Dry those shrooms and put them in a ziplock and you can kiss your ass good bye. And just cause the state didnt get you doesnt mean the feds wont

They use to do this with LSD they would just weigh the blotter and charge you based on that but it finally went to the supreme court because people were getting outrageous sentences. Now they have to extract the LSD from the paper and give an accurate weight
