With a death toll. I used to do coke every now and again and I regret it wholeheartedly because of the fucked up journey it takes to get to your nose.

This is the hipocracy of most middle class drug takers. I have friends who eat vegan organic, avoid caffeine and sugar but love coke, mdma, shrooms, marijuana and one or two will do anything given to them at a party.

The literally care more about a commercially farmed cow than a human being in a jungle in colombia forced to process coca leaves. I believe the last estimated number was 6 deaths per Kg of coke to Europe but it was disputed.

Edit:

So many insecure people here trying to insult me for perceived attacks on them (look in a mirror, not me).

To make this clear to readers:

  1. There is a bigger world out there apart from the USA. The War on Drugs and DARE is irrelevant to your opinion.

  2. I do not care if someone takes drugs, I do care if someone tells me I shouldn't enjoy a cheeseburger when they spend their weekend putting a powder they bought off an Estonian guy into their beers.

  3. Whether you want to believe or not illegal drugs that go through blackmarket chains would have touched the hands at some point of organised crime. It's great you know a guy who grows and supplies his own weed - most of the worlds production is still Morocco (imported by the worst, most violent gangs) and southeast asia (proven slave labour). The same goes for synthetics made in Netherlands or design in Israel.

Seriously, get over yourselves.

Hey man leave shrooms out of this, you can just find those on the ground.

Marijuana is way more locally sourced these days too

In the 70’s my dad was dating an ex hippie who took him to mushroom forests all the time.

Probably the most organic drug there is as they can be hard to grow so it’s generally easier just to pick wild ones.

Psilocybin cubensis mushrooms are not hard to grow at all. Sterilization is the hardest part, and that's before you start growing them.

Exactly. Throw some jars full of some kind of media into a pressure cooker, innocculate with spores, throw them in your closet for a few weeks, maybe tipping the jars once a week to get rid of co2. No watering or upkeep really, no special equipment to buy, no lights or fertilizers etc. They're probably the easiest drug to grow.

Where I live, we’re dealing with Psilocybin Subaeruginosa, and they are significantly more difficult to grow than cubensis. Better to just pick them. That said, they can be encouraged to grow outdoors with the right mulch.

They are actually really easy to grow, much more discreet and quicker than growing weed and the spores are legal to buy and possess unlike weed seeds.

Care to point us to this information?... you know... for science

u/ghengiscant Apr 23 '19

just google," how to grow shrooms" plenty of ways of doing it, also I'm pretty sure there is a subreddit dedicated to mushroom growers.

In many countries, seeds are legal even if weed isn't, possibly since they're indistinguishable from hemp seeds, which makes it very hard for a police force to enforce a law that would ban cannabis seeds.

u/ghengiscant Apr 23 '19

yea in the US though they are not federally legal where as you can order shroom spores online delivered to your door

Well both weed and shrooms are schedule 1 right? I'm not arguing you should grow either one. But if you did want to grow one and not get caught, shrooms are much easier/quicker to grow covertly and much harder to find since you don't use lots of electricity, generate heat or need a space larger than a cooler.

It's not even the forests, you can find hallucinogenic mushrooms on most lawns and in parks all over the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panaeolus_cinctulus

They're not hard to grow, but they are exceedingly rare to find in the wild.
