occidentalis Posted April 14, 2005 Periodically people on the forums will offer spores for sale or trade. So just hang around for a while! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rock n Liam Posted April 14, 2005 shoot me a PM if you are still interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted April 14, 2005 lewis: word of warning. Now I don't know who this Rock N Liam is, but he is new here, just like you. You may not want to go asking him for illegal products, considering you have no idea who he is. No offence meant to anyone by this post, just some common sense.

occidentalis Posted April 14, 2005 Spores are not illegal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted April 14, 2005 Really? But don't they contain psilocybin? A controlled substance? I don't actually know at all where the law stands on this, it was simply an assumption. Looks like I made an 'ass out of U and me'. Could someone clarify if they are legal or not? I would love to know. Either way if a cop sold you a spore print, in some mad undercover operation, surely that would give them cause to execute a search warrant on your premises?

Rock n Liam Posted April 18, 2005 Yes, they are a grey area. I left it open to him if he wants to continue with the trade, you could check my ratings on shroomery or my posts on AEB if you wanted a little more confidence in a trade. But basicly i have a bunch of prints sitting around from a grow a cat of mine did, and am more than happy to send them to some n00bs for free. Edit: No i don't believe spores do contain psilocybin, and this was the reason for their legality. [ 18.

occidentalis Posted April 18, 2005 Rock n Liam: Edit: No i don't believe spores do contain psilocybin, and this was the reason for their legality. That is correct. They are also a very important identification tool. The law wouldn't want someone to accidentally go and eat a Psilocybe that they found in the field, and spore prints could potentially prevent that from happnening.

mazatec_luv Posted April 18, 2005 as far as i know or think the police will no doubt say that by you having the spores, there is intent to grow an illegal substance and therefore they can arrest you. Oh how ignorant they are of our intensions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted April 18, 2005 Thanks for clearing that up guys. You learn something new every day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smogs Posted April 18, 2005 not always it depends... example 1: you have spores... a bunch of syringes... jars with steralised grain and a copy of "how to grow magic mushrooms" sitting on your desk thats a good example of intent to grow example 2: You have few spores prints along with a map of where they were taken, scientific drawings, a microscope and a copy of a technical mushroom identification book that doesnt look like intent to grow to me.. would be someone interested in their study. It's only the psilocybin/cin that's illegal.... and thus by growing the msuhroom you are manuafacturing an illegal substance. The spores dont contain eitehr of these chemicals. Also picking them is being in possesion of an illegal substance. dont take it personally but because you are new people not be ready to help you because we dont know what your intentions are... nobody wants to be an accessory to a crime! so hang around and get to know people first and im sure if your interested in studying them someone will help you out.

Benzito Posted April 18, 2005 What if you had a microscope in your stomach through some freak lab explosion? And you claimed you were just eating these mushrooms to view them with your microscope? :D Please tell me this would be a good excuse, cause I'm filling my lab with gas as we speak.

occidentalis Posted April 18, 2005 If you have a microscope in your stomach due to a lab explosion, and you're still capable of doing anything with spores (other than being food for them), I reckon you should be able to argue your way out of it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benzito Posted April 21, 2005 quote: you dont have to be gay to enjoy the rewards of rectal exploration Now that's a quote for the ages! :D lol I'm writing that on my desk calendar for tomorrow, straight over whatever quote was already on there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rev Posted April 22, 2005 visit EA fungi forums i recall there being a thread regarding this there (spores not rectal exploration BTW) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted April 22, 2005 Thanks Rev, but I've actually totally given up on ethnobotany now anyway. Smogs has opened my eyes to a new world of heterosexual pleasures. Rectal exploration is my new hobby, and just in the past day I've charted a fair bit of previously unknown territory. So THAT'S where you're appendix is! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
