The Dangers of Hallucinogenic Mushroom Spores
You can read the following If you’re interested in the history and effects of hallucinogenic mushrooms. In this article, we’ll examine Psilocybin, Mycelium, and their legal status in the U.S. And, of course, we’ll discuss the dangers of spores from mushrooms. The spores are addictive which is the initial and most serious danger.
Psilocybin
While it is possible to grow your own hallucinogenic mushrooms at home, it is not recommended. They are not unsterile and could be contaminated by mold and bacteria. By using brown rice flour, vermiculite and pressure cookers, you can grow your own psilocybin spores , and create your own psilocybin oil.
Mycelium
The initial stage of development of hallucinogenic mushroom spores is referred to as the mycelium knot. The appearance and the time of mushroom development are influenced by light. Light can alter or increase the amount of psilocybin or psilocyn. The fungus may be photosensitive. The spores could be used to make a medicinal drug, but the effect will depend on the dose.
Legality
The purchase of psilocybin spores on the internet is legal, but the question is how to know whether or not they come from a legitimate source. A legitimate spore seller will have a well-established online presence, be able to accept recognized payment platforms, and have a solid knowledge in the law. Additionally, these traders are only selling products to be used for research, education, and identification purposes and not for personal use.
Legality in the United States
The legality of hallucinogenic mushroom spores in the United States depends on the type of psilocybin content in the mushrooms. It is illegal to grow these mushrooms, however, it is legal to acquire the spores for research purposes and to sell them as collectibles. Three states have explicitly prohibited the cultivation of these fungi and other states have more relaxed laws. The fungi can be utilized to study taxonomy and research in science.
Mycelium contains psilocybin.
Research has focused on the presence of psilocybin in some fungi and in the fruit bodies of hallucinogenic mushrooms. Earlier studies have revealed an association between Psilocybin and hallucinogenic effects. Researchers have studied psilocybin in Psilocybe Semilanceata which is a European species of agaric mushrooms.
Legality of syringes containing spores
Some cities in the United States have decriminalized the possession and sale of hallucinogenic spores. While some states have allowed their sale, many remain staunchly opposed to the use of psilocybin — the psychoactive substance found in hallucinogenic mushrooms. In Colorado and Idaho, however selling or possessing these spores are illegal.
