Denver fairly recently decriminalized mushrooms and I got a grow kit on a whim.

I’m now sitting on a bunch of mushrooms and I don’t know what to do. I’ve got info on microdosing, but I don’t know anything else. The last time I had shrooms was at a concert probably 20 years ago and it was just a bag. Given the increased potency of marijuana I’m reluctant to do anything with them. Any guidance would be appreciated!

    Addendum: Some modern strains don’t drop spores easily. PE-type strains that I have been growing are like this. You gotta do some digging up in them gills with a qtip if you want to attempt to collect any spores if there are any to collect at all.

    This varies from strain to strain, of course. For example, the veils break super early on Mac Galactic even though they have a long way to grow. The “feels like a marshmallow” test can be better in cases like this.

      Thanks for the info. I’ve never heard that about PE, but that makes sense given their morphology. Admittedly I have only ever grown more vanilla cubes, so I wouldn’t have much knowledge there… The early veils are another new one for me. I agree that test would be more appropriate there.

      It’s always cool to learn from someone with more information. Thanks for enlightening me.
