Fun fact, a lot of employers don't test for mushrooms. If it's a 5 panel test, they don't test for it at all.
Fun fact, it's legal to purchase spores and grow kits in the US, since they don't contain any psilocybin.
I've thought about trying to grow some, it doesn't look hard, but just like all things that look easy there is likely a lot of underlying info I'd have to find or learn the hard way... and right now I'm trying to keep from being that guy who has a bunch of half-finished projects.
It’s easy. If you’re going to worry about anything it’s the legality of it, the chances of getting caught, and what might happen to you if you were to some how get caught.
Nothing will be worse for your depression than dealing with the legal ramifications of a schedule 1 possession and/or cultivation charge.
Yeah that's the OTHER reason I haven't done it. I make decent money and have a loving family, and I'm not really wanting to burn all that down to grow mushrooms.
It's really extremely easy. You get these premade boxes that you unpack and set into a corner and leave there for a couple of weeks. Some other boxes might need to water them first. It's really easy and a nice experience growing them.
