      The spores are legal to buy online for study.

      Completely unrelated, but used coffee grounds make for a decent mushroom grow medium.

      Like if you wanted to grow some button mushrooms.

        pressure cook some whole oats (like the kind they sell for horses, not rolled oats/oatmeal), spawn on that in mason jars, then transfer to a bed of pressure-cooked coco coir when fully colonized, mix, cover, and wait.

        Eh, coffee grounds aren’t a great medium for most mushrooms, they’re a cheap one that requires more sterilization than most home growers can do (I’ve tried them plenty before,they almost always lead to some trich). The traditional method is to use rye, but honestly brown rice flour teks are generally the best from my experience for various types of mushrooms.

          Never ceases to amaze me.

          Ask someone a question, and you get an answer like “I’m not google”. But if you state incorrect information, they will respond with the answer you were seeking to begin with.

          That’s a mentality you’d only find on Earth. Not like those other planets, like Mars, and Venus, and Pluto, and the sun. You don’t find this behavior on those planets!

            so torn between “you’re right, you don’t” and “well actually the mars rovers all use a redundant hardware and consensus algorithms for error correction so…”

            you’ve successfully disabled my terminal knowitallism!

      Given the time of year, potentially your local wood

      (Disclaimer: don’t forage mushrooms unless you or someone you’re with knows what they’re doing)

      I have an eighth that I had tucked away and forgot about. I recently found it but am kinda scared of it. Its at least a decade old now, and I don’t know how long they’re good for… I don’t imagine they age like wine. I was thinking of maybe trying to make a tea but don’t really know how to do that either.

        A decade old is probably long gone, unless it was pressure stored and even then…

        PS, teas suck, try to make capsules or have a lemon tek (lemon juice increases the effect a good bit, so either less for the same trip or a more intense trip).
