Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I hope this takes off like marijuana did, I’ll happily make a trip to Oregon to go on a trip in Oregon
It's also shockingly easy to grow em yourself
Like 50 bucks of setup gardening equipment and you can get the spores shipped to your door in basically any state
I have a green thumb and might be able to pull this off even if they aren't green. I assume you need substrate and controlled humidity.
What has always stopped me is worry that someone will knock on my door asking what I've done with this package of spores.
I like to look at them under a microscope. What do you mean what microscope? It umm broke, I need to order a new one.
I just squint at em real close.
You will need a kinda taupe thumb tho
The reason the spores are legal is for microscopy. No one's going to ask you to talk about your microscopy hobby though.
Maybe if I ever get a bigger apt, I’ve looked into it in the past and never pulled the trigger
There was (is?) a subreddit called UncleBens, where users talk about using a pouch of Uncle Ben's microwave rice to grow mushrooms.
Apparently, it's the perfect growth media for low budget shroom cultivation.
I don't know what other things you'd need, like temperature and humidity control, and keeping everything sterile after inoculating the rice might be an issue as well. I never spent a lot of time looking at the subreddit, I just know it exists.
Some small mason jars, a way to puncture the lids, some cheap tape, brown rice flour, and vermiculite
Then a big plastic tub and some perlite for the fruiting chamber
Super cheap and shockingly easy
