word?
hmm well i guess then i need to get just one shrrom and im gonna start me a forest


...well... it wouldn't really work like that... the spores on a shroom that your about to eat would be contaminated...you could possibly use agar to isolate a non contaminated section of mycelium, but it would be hard... your best bet would be to spend $20 and order some spore prints or syringes... they are legal to buy almost everywhere in the US a couple states banned it but you could still get it there if you tried...

go to shroomery.com to learn all you need to know... and trust me mushrooms are complicated but not to hard to grow... harder than weed...

you were right about the complicated part...
everything between contaminated and your best bet is total gibberish lol
i live in florida im pretty sure its legal here...
i would think shrooms would be a lot easier to grow than weed it seems you would just toss spores on soil and put light water on it then wait for the magic to happen. then flick the shrooms to drop more spores pick them and wait for a new batch

I'm gonna try it. Seems like fun, Plus shrooms are hard to come by round here. A pressure cooker is not a big expense. It says that you don't have to have a pressure cooker. I think you can boil.

depends the substrate. I use organic rye grain. You soak it for 24 hours then you simmer it for an hour then put it into jars and pressure cook for 1 hour on 15 psi

After that stage i sterilize some coco coir and vermiculite. 50/50 mix by microwaving it for 40 minutes. Then i mix a colonized jar with 2-3 jars worth of vermiculite and coco coir. to make a casing
