I’ve been taking psychedelic mushrooms with my mom for 14 years. It’s brought us closer together.
We decided to grow our own…
My mom had received that first baggie of mushrooms as a gift from a friend… not long after that initial trip, while working as a magazine manager at a bookstore, I saw an ad in “High Times” for an at-home “EZ Grow” mushroom kit. It was $120 for a grow bag and some spores… when the grow kit came in the mail, Mom and I began to connect over that, too. She got me to spread the spores in with the rye berries, then mix that mushroom substrate into a compost bag for germination. Flash forward a month, and that bag brimmed with the curvy, gold-capped fungus that bruised blue, almost indigo, wherever we pinched or picked them.
