I hope this takes off like marijuana did, I’ll happily make a trip to Oregon to go on a trip in Oregon
It's also shockingly easy to grow em yourself
Like 50 bucks of setup gardening equipment and you can get the spores shipped to your door in basically any state
I have a green thumb and might be able to pull this off even if they aren't green. I assume you need substrate and controlled humidity.
What has always stopped me is worry that someone will knock on my door asking what I've done with this package of spores.
I like to look at them under a microscope. What do you mean what microscope? It umm broke, I need to order a new one.
I just squint at em real close.
You will need a kinda taupe thumb tho
The reason the spores are legal is for microscopy. No one's going to ask you to talk about your microscopy hobby though.
Maybe if I ever get a bigger apt, I’ve looked into it in the past and never pulled the trigger
There was (is?) a subreddit called UncleBens, where users talk about using a pouch of Uncle Ben's microwave rice to grow mushrooms.
Apparently, it's the perfect growth media for low budget shroom cultivation.
I don't know what other things you'd need, like temperature and humidity control, and keeping everything sterile after inoculating the rice might be an issue as well. I never spent a lot of time looking at the subreddit, I just know it exists.
Some small mason jars, a way to puncture the lids, some cheap tape, brown rice flour, and vermiculite
Then a big plastic tub and some perlite for the fruiting chamber
Super cheap and shockingly easy
